Title: General Discussion
Description: How to Attract
Ace - May 4, 2005 02:56 AM (GMT)
I'm looking for a way to attract some attention to the General Discussion. Sure, it has some posts, but a majority of the posts go into the Anything forum (that was assumed, however, and I have no problem with a flourishment of anything posts). However, I would like to focus this site more on some Spore stuff. If it's basically being used as an anything board, then I should just transform it into just that.
I've posted some new posts in the General Discussion. I hope you all reply to them.
Also, if you have ANY suggestions on things I could do, I'd be more than willing.
A thing I've been looking into is a "store" such thing, as seen on Chocolate Insanity and a couple of other forums. You would get a certain amount of credit for each post determined by how much you put into the post and you could buy and trade stuff. Just an idea. But I'm still thinking about it all.
Hope you all enjoy the site!
:)

I'll start replying to the Spore stuff... I just don't know much about the game...
The cash mod sounds cool, I talked Nick into adding it and installed it myself.

Well that's good to hear, not that I'm pushing anyone.
If anyone knows about if IFB has a store mod then I would like to know...I saw one for IPB, but it also costs, I think.
I 'll check it out now...though I'll need some help setting it up if I find anything.

Maybe some of us needed a little push. I'm glad you posted this and got me looking in there more and seeing if I can add any imput to the posts.
I'd help with the cash mod, but I don't know anything about IPB, I once looked at the admin panel and it was so confusing!

These past few days I've been very busy, but I made a vow to try to start a topic at my three favourite sites (here, Miz Sim and Pink Imoen) at least once a week, so expect me to be on here a little more too.

Well one thing about me is I'm loyal to a site that I join and never go anywhere else unless refrenced for information from someone at the site. Perhaps its a flaw of sorts but anyway I think in order to have more discussion in there we need more information about the game. You need to know about somthing before you can post about it. Oh and whats the credit thing for exactly.

The "credits" thing is a mod that allows to have "shops" per se. What would happen is that you'd post in the Gen. Discussion, Wishlist, Pictures, and other forums that apply and you would get a certain amount of credit where you can buy stuff.
I know over at Thybag's site that they have the ability to buy ranks, change name, etc. But also you could have some random things - like buy a planet or something random like that. :D

the buy part is what i dont get about it. So i would buy a game related thing like a Spicies or what?

No, no, no. It's more of a just-for-fun thing...it's kind of hard to describe - see the URL below to see what I mean:

Good to hear. ;)
Anyway, like I said, it's really more of a little extra thing, an incentive to those who post in the "right" forums...but I dunno. It all depends.
