You must have noticed that Luci, one of our most popular active members, has just left MyEC. Sorry, but MyEC members keep coming and going. I agree that MyEC wouldn't be the same without popular active members like Luci. Then, here comes my question: Who'll make a popular active member here on MyEC?
A popular active member should be:
So eager to read and write blog posts
They are so interested in what others write, and so curious to know what others are doing or thinking about. Whenever it's possible, they write their own blogs or blog posts, which usually are so fun and interesting to read. They'll respond or reply to any comment on their blog.
So willing to help
They usually try to leave a comment on what they just read. Their comments are so encourgaging - they're actually inspiring other members to write more. They even try to make corrections for those who really want to be corrected. It sure takes time for them to do this, but they think it's worth doing.
So good at English
It's easy for them to understand what others write in English. They can communicate with others in English without any difficulty. They know what you're trying to say, and can express themselves so effectively.
So, you can be our next popular active member. Try to be such an active member here - you can make a difference by doing this and you'll agree it's so rewarding.

Sorry for failing to reply instantly - I was having trouble to access MyEC. Thanks for the message. Yes, you could try to write one.
@Hamza
Good question! I used "who'll" since I was trying to mean 'who will have the right qualities for a popular active member'. Thanks for the question - I really appreciate it.
Hello,
Welcome back luci . and I have a question for you Mr.expector , Why you said or wrote "Who'll make a popular active member here?" instead of "What will make a popular active member here?" . thanks in advance
I'm trying this task Expector!
@Anne
Thanks for the reply. Now Luci is back - everything seems to have been back to normal.
@Bianca
Yes, she is irreplaceable.
@Luci
Welcome back! I never thought you had left forever, though. You owe us all an excuse:)
@arif
Excellent comment. You really have a point there. But we need more active members like Luci since we need to keep it going. So it's not a good idea to be less active here - we encourage our members to be more actively involved by writing, reading and commenting more.
Keep up your great work here, arif.
It's okay Doc! I do understand your point. Luci was already contemplating of leaving EC almost one month ago. I thought it was resolved already. I never suspected that she would make it real.
It feels like mourning over the loss of someone like her!
@Anne
Thanks for the comment. I know Luci was also popular in the chat room even though I never enter the chat room. Don't get me wrong - I do think chatting in the chat room can be so rewarding.
Luci might have tried to find someone to talk to when she decided to leave. It seems she didn't tell anyone she was leaving, though. Nobody really knows why she chose to leave -it is now anyone's guess.
Hope she'll come back soon!
@setareh
Yes, I hope, too, there are so many active members here on MyEC. I can tell you could be such an active member. Keep up your great work here.
@Seeker
I'm glad you'll try to do your best to be actively involved here. Thanks!
Dear Doc,
So these are the prerequisites for gaining popularity in EC? Honestly speaking, Doc it also made me think of something else.
It maybe because you are very much concerned with the blog section that it didn't come into your mind that being popular in EC also needs to be active in the main chatroom, too. A large portion of the EC members goes to the chatroom rather than lingers inside the club everyday that it's easy to be recognized when one is active in this section, too.
Luci was very active in both sections that she gained the highest recognition from the new and the old members of EC. Actually, it was neither her aim nor her intention to gain popularity here. It was obvious that she was quite enjoying her time writing, reading, interacting and putting English into practice. She unconsciously became the living epitome of a true EC learner who materialized her passion for English by utilizing EC club to the fullest.
I believe that for a learner to achieve his ultimate goal in improving his English to a very satisfactory level, he must be generous in practising his English a lot, religiously participating in every activity in EC club not just for the aim of gaining popularity but to improve.
EC has offered the greatest opportunity for us to improve our English. It's our choice to grab it and benefit from it or just take it for granted.
I felt so unhappy because I was not able to have a talk with Luci before she went. She treated me as her close ally and a confidant. I felt so sorry I was not here when she might be needing someone for whom she could give vent to her feelings. Luci, I know you can read my comment. I hope you are okay. I hope that this short rest will revive you and make you come back to EC again. I will be waiting for your return!
Thank you, Doc for acknowledging our dearest Luci!
