I already have plenty of people interested in the codes. But when new people arrive and look around, they tend to lose interest just like I did.

So instead of sending out your invite codes to diversify the user base to generate more content, you will instead not distribute the codes?

That's an incorrect assumption. I've given out codes before. It didn't generate more content, because people quickly lose interest.

The grass is not greener on the other side.

I guess that's fair. I don't necessarily think I agree with you yet, but I don't think I disagree as much either. Interesting discussion.
