EPTi suggest we advertise on great sites like gamefaqs and sclegacy to try to get more participants, or maybe get a battle.net bot to spam on east.
perhaps a downloads section would help, too. we could put some map hacks and cracks.
this site is stagnant

Thx for the comments. It's something we're in the process of dealing with. It's also definitely something I've been thinking about. A bit of patience and constructive input would be great. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. | ||

klogon i never meant to say this site should be like past newb sc sites, if thats what i said. we have amazing ppl that come here like ilnp legion hovz rekrul nazgul drone mesrea waxangel benny and others i cant even remember all the names. they all spend time here and share their thoughts and analysis and have a good time, but the format seems to inspire, well, stagnation somehow.. not sure why. i never thought it was a good idea for a site to revolve around a news section, the way every major site has always tried to do. daily news is kewl but this site has things better than news, renewable resources like league analyses, strategic discussions including posts by good players that could have been archived, replays collections, links, etc. but most of the features being produce in this great site usually begin and end in some forum thread that dies only to be found if someone searches for it. there are many sections here but maybe some should be merged, removed, or moved, just maybe.. someday | ||

TL.net is pretty much a gathering place for BW players.. but we come here and we dont really do anything. Maybe tl.net could organize a ladder or weekly tournaments or something. Anything to really get people coming here to participate. It would take alot of work unfortunately, but I think something like that would breathe a new life into the forum | ||

A public rep section would be iffy though.maybe if you had a rule where only forum regulars could use it,like 600+ posts or something then it would be a bit safer from junk being uploaded. Definetly need something happening in the rep section department though,currently its pretty bad | ||

just get a few dedictated liquidites to moderate,if it turns out bw.com'ish,remove it.But i really doubt it will,i think its obvious bw.com community was far worse than tl,you'll know what i mean if you've ever read the comment section or the forum there. | ||

The only problem is drawing people in. If one of site mods introduced the tournament as a TeamLiquid event, there would be a better tournout. Would make the forum more active, definitely lift the cloud of boredom thats been lingering lately You could do neat things for the winner, too. Like making a little symbol for the winner of the tourney to wear for the week, like the #1 Liquibet's happy guy with trophy. What do you think? | ||

Monthly is way better imo, or would you really want to spend every weekend MANY hours on running something? Really, when you run a tournament so many troubles turn up, like disconnects, hack accusations and much more. Also i think it would be better to keep it a bit special, that way some of the better players of the forums will also participate and not only the newbies. How much experience do you have with running tournaments? | ||

that sounds much better.I've been running the Friday Night Tournament for 6 weeks or so, but trance is doing this week's since i wasn't sure if I'd be there They're simple single elim 16-man tourneys, but they go smoothly and people have a great time Running a tournament isn't really very hard.. You just have to keep track of things | ||

Grot: Excellent thought. RWAs seem very popular these days. I'll give it some thought. What's your MSN? Trance/Steve: I like your ideas about a regular BW tournament. Would also provide opportunities for forumers engaging in flame wars to settle things through a duel on Neo FZ. We could make sure certain players get paired together. Will give serious consideration to all of the above. Changes are a comin'. | ||

We could make sure certain players get paired together. An idea I suggested a few times before, it'd be interesting and might discourage some of the trashtalking. Of course both players would have to agree, or we'd have newbies trashtalking players just to get games with them. If anything, it'd be fun to make reports about.. could potentially be even better than the Liquibition games. | ||

it would work like liquibition and probably wouldnt post many more reps than it already does, but it could add some fun because of the league format and ultimately after a few years there could be a champion | ||

And by activity I mean, more people posting. It's basically the same people still posting here, and if there were more people posting here, there's much more to respond to. And hopefully, the newer 'generation' of TL posters won't be on the common grounds as idiots, and actually post cool stuff (as in stuff I don't have to yawn in - having seen it like 20 times on TL already). Advertising the site does seem kind of weak, because then I'm sure it would be just suckers coming here to post idiotic stuff, then we'd need more admins to ban them off. I was just thinking it would be better if we did some advertising by word of mouth? I've told a few people to post here, and when they did, they said they didn't really like it, and some thought it was cool, and still post here. All interests. | ||

so mydnyte i just am not sure we can I. increase the amount of good posters II. increase the activity of the good posters nor is it feasable to III. decrease the activity of the bad posters sure, i'll do my part to not make so many useless comments, but i dont think it will be enough. a few ppl in this respect are way too enthusiastic about ruining threads so carelessly with their smiles and general cuteness and fervent defense of c6-level advice | ||
