Hello [DK]. I've observed the forums day by day for a while now and I came to the conclusion that follows: The forums are usually empty, only becoming active during the beginning of each month due to new slots and applications. This shouldn't be. A server's forums should be a major roll player in the economy of a server. Many flourishing servers have not only a server, but a successful forum and channel where they can thoroughly communicate with its members. That's why I'm suggesting to advertise or help the players become more aware of the forums so that we can have a much more active and convenient system of communication. Along with the increase of players on the forums, there would also have to be more "stuff" to talk about. Perhaps a Fan-Art category and Faction hiring/info topic for players that wish to participate. Events should become more frequent, along with siggy shops and introduction pages. Fan-Art would be a big step for a forum. It allows for more activity instead of just asking questions in the General Discussions like, "Wrong ip or name in use." It can have siggy shops, fan-made trailers/flyers/advertisements for the server, enabling the players to have fun and have something to wait for. [In case you don't know what a siggy shop is. A siggy shop is a shop where people can ask for a signature from the shop owner. The owner will photoshop, gimp, paint, etc. a signature and give it to you for a price or not for a price.] In a server, there are fundementals that allow it to succeed. One of them are the forums. | |

I agree, But further more ive seen a worse problem before we should solve this we should solve the problems from the last problem to the earlyest. Just like in the military. I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody. Qoute by bill cosby Like this qoute states before we should please everyone we should get our Things together Example when you were in school im sure you heard of the 5 sticks Together, There stong But when one leaves or difs away they weaken and become Less stong as in a easyer failure. Ive been On minesahfter to see our Advertisemenst there are 8 Of ours out there. Instead of being clustered and all out there we need to make One. Like one official Advertisement And get alot of likes so more people will join. Once we have more people We become stonger then we May bond together with a fourms. So what we should basicaly do is Focus on Getting more people and then bonding Again a strong example Is The germans Germany was the strongest Army in the world. with power greater then any has ever had. Tell me this if the nazi just jumped to Being boned how would they grow they would fall apart not a strong way to go. What did they do? they Influenced Thousands of Germans to Join there army and go through intense training while after having there task solved by having an armor could they fight like one anohter example Say your in the jungles of Vietnam fighting and you come across an ambush Sure you have boned greatly with every one but are you a team you know you have flaws fix them Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction. albert einstein

I have now just Uploaded the signatures I have made recently onto my signature. I use a siggy bumper for it to constantly change my signature. This is what I meant by Signature. | |

I make them with Photoshop. I'll make you one once I have time to get on my actual computer. If anyone wants to know my steps on making a signature: 1. Understand the player's username, intentions, and personality. Remember, the signature must resemble the player. After all, it's going to be the players. 2. Get a couple of images. You must understand that photoshop is not just for speed sketch videos on youtube. It's also for editing photos, making backgrounds, and of course creating signatures. Get it? Photoshop? 3. Use Gimp, Photoshop, or any other image-editing program to create your intended atmosphere and attitude. 4. Put the images into appropriate positions and add Text. I know, with photoshop you can make it 3d, warp it, and add filters to enhance the looks of your signature. 5. Upload it with a site. Personally I think photobucket is the best site for this. Check it out and make an account! Photobucket 6. Post it for the player or skype it to them. No matter what you do, if you don't give the player the actual picture; then what's the whole point of doing all that work? You could have just sat back and played some more minecraft with your friends. 7. (For the reciever) If you have multiple signatures and you don't wanna have to switch your signature around every 30 minutes, use a siggy bumper. The best one is the grumpy siggy bumper. Register and you'll have your own .gif that switches around your signature about every 10 minutes. Click here
