What we might have to do to get players
Tue Mar 18, 2014 7:06 pm by Sol
Well our best bet without a doubt is the last option that I don't want to resort to, which is pay for advertisements. Now I don't know if you are aware of costs on purchased advertisement; it's heavily expensive. Some adverts range from $100 to $1000 depending on which website. Now of course I'm not going to pay for that kind of fund which is really ridiculous. Why? Because it doesn't give you a …

Are we progressing?

Well I wanna start out with some statistics first. We have(at the time i posted this topic) 307 accounts total including people with multiple accounts. I can do a stats check for this later. Out of those 307 accounts, we have 256 inactive accounts. That is an 83% inactive player base leaving about 51 active accounts. We are in fact declining in votes as well assuming our player count average …

Are you ready?

Hello boys and girls! I want to let you guys know there is a stronger chance(80%) sure that the server will be coming back. Why you may ask? Well the support from your fellow players did not give up for the past year. They kept begging and begging for the server to come back. I was surprised and felt ambiguous.
Anyway, for those who weren't aware of what was going on in the past 2 months, I …

Simple as that. I'm no longer applying updates. Each day we drop a rank in runelocus rank. How come we can never stabilize our rank in voting? The answer is obvious, no one is voting. Now do i really have to give some huge fuckn reward like fuckn claws? I guess i have to do a big incentive it seems.

Some of the more serious players vote everyday(my self included), people need to be reminded more rapidly to vote and vote, and if they don't bother to vote, then it's a bye bye i guess.

But how can we be sure that the "bribe" works, what if they start using us as a money bank...we give them money for them to vote and they just take the money and don't vote...We need mods to yell vote on runelocus/top100 or something more frequently...there has to be a way to get people to vote though.. :/ Because i did not waste a month of my life and sol didn't waste over 2 or more years(idk how long has this server been up from 317-657)or nothing...And i believe that everyone else who loves this server didn't waste their time for nothing as well.

agree with you sol. player's are to lazy to vote and that piss me off. You use ur time to help (update) server, and what u get back? -no votes? so when that piss me off, i can understand how angry u are. We have to do something about the voting, and i agree with "Loner"- that we need a mod or 2 that yell vote more then they do

Yes, agree with this it is so stupid voting takes no effort, you even pull up the websites for them there is no excuse to not vote.

You really need to find someone very familiar with .php, a lot of kids don't get how much there vote really counts. Just like the election for president, they don't understand. I guess they really need a reason to vote =/

Every time you log in with an account that hosnt voted it opens up a browser. Now tell me how they need to be reminded more? all they have to do is enter the code and press vote?
Its honestly a disgrace that people wont vote when the fucking browser opens in their face AND they get free vpk points everytime. Are some people retarded?

I already do vote daily, but i jk is right it is just sad when sol opens the web page for you and you can vote while the server is in the middle of restarting and be done before it is back up.

I vote everyday i'm on which is everyday, but I also think that you need to take off top100, because most people look at Runelocus and everyone voting will make the rank go up higher if its set to 1 website.
