so how about making this server more popular?

Akirakei · September 25, 2009, 04:23:37 PM

So players online count is slowly increasing...Thats not how it suppose to be considering this is the only private server which has GF full files.Main idea is to make this server more international-friendly.

1.Translate www.rpg-club.org or www.rpg.club.eu (w/e the main address is) to ENGLISH.
2.Remove crappy screenshots like this one:
https://www.rpg-club.org/img/19_01_08_event_global/3_.jpg
Player comes to your website having atleast a bit of an interest in the server something like "I've heard that this is GF full server" and sees those screenshots "wtf custom server1!?1".
3.Add your server to main "Top servers" websites (hopzone, games.top.org and etc.)
4.Re-organize all your forums (or atleast this one) for example separate ENGLISH community from Russian community.Something like
---ENGLISH---
New & Announcements
Main Discussion
Clans
Trade
Off-topic
---RUSSIAN---
Same thing as above only in Russian

IMO having much bigger community would make players and admins happy.There's more fun when you have 3-4k on instead of 1.5k isnt it?I know that like 3/5 of all players in this server are russians and prolly you wouldnt agree with my idea, but cmon you russian ppl learn english @ school and you can speak english aswell as other foreigners.

Well dunno are you here from start, but it start with 60 ppl, then 200+,then 500+ came to 1k and now is 1400+ and still growing. But making this wouldn't harm would give new look of server for those who think is just some random server.

1. Neither of them is main.
.com is for Russians
.eu - for English-speaking players.

2. Both are to be redesigned soon. "crappy screenshots" will be removed surely.

4. I'm not sure it's so easy to separate the two communities. How? Ban for posting in Russian here?

pokemontrainer · September 25, 2009, 08:05:35 PM

for start: english speaking GM with rights on server would be good

Pel8 · September 25, 2009, 08:18:38 PM

Make 1 section for english an another for russian

imo the guy is talking about to make the main page translated to English and advertise the server a bit.
its not about to ban russian posts,but imo u can make it like on abyss.
Full EN forum and full RUS,and of course both got the news and u should get an english speaking mod/admin to make the things fresh on the forum/web.

Alice · September 25, 2009, 08:25:31 PM

We have "our" forums https://forum.rpg-club.net/, but "we russian ppl" don't like limits

Mb we'll make ru section and modify the rules, need to think it over...

Pel8 · September 25, 2009, 08:39:23 PM

Just add another section on this forum for russian ppl

Alice · September 25, 2009, 08:52:08 PM

I understood. Still they'll post everywhere - that's what i mean.

pokemontrainer · September 25, 2009, 09:31:36 PM

i would welcome more gm action with fixing very serious bugs as some forums things

ve3k · September 25, 2009, 09:50:59 PM

Main question is: Are server hardware and network capable of hadling over 3-4k players at a time?

You dont need to advertise much, just a bit more involvement to english speaking community on forums and place the server addv to top sites.

And you need to focus to fix critical game bugs like: olympiad and territory wars.

P.S.: Seems like we have finally some admin who can talk english *Hi Alice*

Pushok · September 26, 2009, 02:03:50 AM

это наш форум и мы его доим!
why should it be "special" russian forum here? why? you'll post there and we'll post here. there's no sense in it

ve3k · September 26, 2009, 02:26:50 AM

there is a sense, since non russian community use english and only russian community post in russian cos they dont like to use english

Pushok · September 26, 2009, 02:54:17 AM

Quotethere is a sense, since non russian community use english and only russian community post in russian cos they dont like to use english

if they post in russian their message is addressed to russians o O
except some cases of cours.
same with u witing in polish or smth else

ve3k · September 26, 2009, 03:01:57 AM

do u see any posts in other language then english or russian, except that protestant topic in german?
and if u want to talk russian to russian people, u are on wrong forums, there are 3 russian servers and 1 english according to server description, so for russian talk join those 3 server's forums

Pushok · September 26, 2009, 03:16:37 AM

there's a "protestant" russian topic too

nothing can ban me because i'm russian and playing here. i dunno why i should speak with u in russian while u won't understand me =)
if i speak with a russian guy, i'll be writing in russian, if with u - in english, i cant see the problem with u.

PS a question for foreigners: is the word combination "you're a bot" offensive to u? 'cause when killing u, u right it, but i just dont care

Every serious server should have only one main language on forum, becuase if everybody spam his language its ANARCHY!.You should make other language boards in RUS/PL etc.

i still can't understand why we nned many forums in different languages, it will make the information search more complex - e.g. you look the info in russian form and english forum, trying to find what u need

No Mr.Dramatic, it will be much better than now, when everyone is writing anywhere in any language.

No, we wont have "many forums", but SECTIONS for other languages. Ofc main info and everything will be in english and each country member can translate every new info to their country mates, that dont speak english and still they go play english server.
