We need a way to drum up some interest in this site, at least as far as the message board goes. I've noticed that while people are actually registering, none of them are actually posting anything. I'd hate to see the message bored go under from lack of interest, I like it here.I guess any suggestions anyone has should be address to GFK so that he can then take those ideas to the rest of the omnipotent ones that run the site. I didn't want to be the first to say it, but someone had too -------------------- “I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.” “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.” --Dr. Stephen Hawking.

I've been thinking the same thing for a while. Not enough peope really pay attention to banner ads, so that wouldn't be too feasible, not to mention the cost of them.I've told a lot of people about the boards, both online and offline friends, but no one seems to have the time for message boards, it seems. Either that or they think it's some IRC 'chat' program and don't even want to get into it. I've been wracking my brains trying to think of a reason this place isn't flooded with posts every day (like the PlanetQuake, Polycount and Quake3World forums are). I think that firstly, Q3Arena.com isn't aimed at a particular part of the community. Polycount's aimed at artists, Planetquake (judging by their boards) is aimed at prepubescent wannabe hax0rs, and Quake3World has different forums up the wazoo. I figure Q3Arena.com isn't specific enough for people wanting tech help, art or mod help, clan help, etc. so they go elsewhere for it. I know, I know I haven't come up with anything constructive, but I'm sure we'll collectively think of something.

I think that it might help now that the mail server has been fixed. . .-------------------- “I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.” “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.” --Dr. Stephen Hawking.

Yeah, I know PG, it's a bit out of character isn't it.-------------------- “I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.” “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.” --Dr. Stephen Hawking.
