This is crazy, what is going on? COMPETITION!
« on: January 21, 2012, 05:55:59 pm »
Where did all our players go? The Vps went down, I understand, but 4-5 players on a day? Are you kidding me?
That is insane, and totally wrong.
Bottom line is, we need more players, right now.
I know I am never on our anything, but when I am on, there is no one on.
I'm tired of this.
I am hosting a competition to see who can get us the most players. I know most of the time no one ever wins, but this time, it is not a cash reward, or item reward, none of that. This reward is a maxed skilling account (except summoning, slayer, and prayer). I will be giving away the account to a player who has earned the most players in a week. If you earn players, and they don't send me a message via forums, or make a introduction and farewell in the forums, then they do not count as a player. They must either post here, make a introduciton and farewell, or private message me via forums telling me who invited them to the game.
The winner, once again, will win a MAXED SKILLER ACCOUNT.
The event will end once one player has gotten 5 players to the server.
Goodluck, and hope too see the player count rising.
P-S:
These players cannot be a one time log on, then log of deal, they must be on, and have atleast one 99 in any stat before they are considered "Active".

This is such a bad idea.

This is a terrible idea.

People should earn stats.

You want more players?

Then do real advertising, use google ads, get more than four irl friends of yours to join, and tell them to get their friends and so on.

Post it on Facebook, make a facebook group and advertise it.

Kyle, if you're suggesting get more irl friends to play, well we really can't....

Playing RuneScape or really anything of the sort in our town, school, whatever, is a JOKE we would be just.. Jokes.. Idk, it's pathetic to play it, I hide everything whenever friends of mine come over, because the last time I didn't they made fun of me the whole night..

I do agree, the maxed account thing is pretty dumb, everyone wants to play, and when I was an owner and had ::master I was bored off of my ass..

And I also agree, Dylan, you also have to do something to contribute.. You have to create google ads, you have to do some other stuff, I can make whatever you want however you want but you'll need to post it on whatever..

I hate to agree with Kyle.. But he's right on most of it..

I understand, I feel the same way, and do the same thing, but there is no easy answer, and it's really not normal players jobs.

google ads is over 100$ a month and nobody donates enought for me to pay that, i dont use facebook, ever so if you want to make one feel free, all my irl friends that play rsps's are playing. Tbh if the count doesnt increase me and Ozzy are going to turn to "desperate measures" and i dont think any of you will like that, but it will be are next best shot at more players.

The question is How can we get players, we have tried advertising, we've tried getting irl friends to play
but the thing is its not working, What other ways can we get players?Kyle ideas are a great way to get new players using social websites and google ads as dylan said they cost 100$, what about voting? does voting help? does everyone vote once a day? we have gotten lots of players from runelocus or watever its called mayby we should vote more.

Voting doesn't really help, only the top two or three servers get any attention.

And those votes do not come from it's players.

Voting won't really help, and it may lose players, they might see a server there that looks better, and join it instead.

Dylan doesn't want ANYONE advertising on ****-scape because knowing he is a moderator, he might get it revoked if people from his server go on to **** and advertise.. And no one wants that. :(
