Brining More players to valor

Post by Green Jelly »

i think it would be great to have more players on this shard i don't know about you others but I would love it so I'm proposing a plan that would help us we should vote a lot more and I know we forgot or you just don't care but so I was thinking when you log in it automatically starts a browser to the website part where you vote idk I think it would make alot more people vote that's just something that I think.

rather than browsers coming up each time you log in (can be anoying, especially if you just voted and are just re-logging in), you could incorperate "vote stones" in game. People could dbl click then in game stone (would look like old guild stones) and a browser would come up /w voting sites. This would make it very easy for everyone playing in game to constantly vote.

Our reward for using vote stones will be a larger player base, and thus a more thriving active server. Stop asking for free junk.

d's right. There's no need for free junk just to get players to vote for the server. You should vote because you want to see the player base grow and to overall support the server. You shouldn't vote to get free items, not to mention there's a bunch of checks we'd have to do to prevent exploitation and false positives for families who play from the same IP.

I like the stone idea as we are planning to link the game server to the web so that numerous tasks can be converted from each source. For example, we would like to get pages sent to a web form where we can reply from a remote destination as we are always on the forums but not always in game. We would also like to bring news updates to players in game via a mailbox in their house.

the voting stones are doable, I'll look into it. would not take too long to code. just a double click and packet send.

I suppose we could give small rewards as a small incentive.

I concur. I researched shards before I chose one. I'd search their forums, website content, maybe make a character and check it out. That is why I don't mind doing the vote submission 'manually'. I took the time to do it. Some might need incentive but meh.
