    Like how? examples please

     

    Instead of accepting only members into the team with artistic skills: Accept members with other skills such as in writing, communication, advertising and social media, or experience or knowledge of businesses.  Broadened meaning not being too specific in art or software, or the current skill set they are looking for.

     

    I am intending to make this a very small suggestion, and not something fancy like train them and give them a scholarship towards their MBA degree.  The Creative Team to me looks like  (not saying this is verbatim) "We're the creative team and we're looking for skills in this art stuff; we'll try to satisfy artistic work upon request" (reactive) and I am hoping it would become more like (not verbatim) "We're the Marketing team and our mission is to advertise for GFL.  We're currently facilitating our Youtube channels to advertise GFL; we're working on game guides to draw new members into GFL; we have a dozen threads with GFL propaganda and pictures of our events, and we'll take anyone on our team who is interested in promoting GFL and has any of these skills..." (proactive)

     

    edit:

     

    I think the "problem" with the 2 members is that the skills they are looking are very specific for art stuff.  I think accepting more or being open to more, and concentrating on the mission, will help the team grow and put their work towards something more proactive for the community rather than just having a team of people who can use illustrator or edit a video.

  3. What do you mean by giving it a new start?  Are you meaning introduce new maps or something?  These are all things I hear in talk whenever someone wants to do something, but there's no content to it.

     

    You could be the person to do it...  though...  Don't think of big ideas.  Work on the little stuff.  One thing I have noticed from past fallen servers is that old maps were well supported for larger and active communities, and as the people in those modes began to lose interest, then it became difficult to play those same maps with a smaller group.  I would definitely come up with a list of maps, items or modes, or anything relevant to population, and keep it small- post it up.  Make it a good game for 2 or 3 people to enjoy for now, and then work out the details later should the community grow.

     

    I don't know much about Murder although I do recall hopping on once.  I think it would be great to see a few pictures or videos.  If you don't make one, then maybe request one from the Creative Team?  Try not to rely on them and produce some stuff to or provide them pictures and video pieces.  If you really want this to come back, then you'll have to put some work into it.

  4. I remember a topic like this long ago and it received a lot of positive feedback.  Unfortunately: The weight was against it as it requires a lot of work.  I think it was mentioned, that there are already existing apps, such as Tapatalk, which are far more convenient and good enough.  I can't find that thread.

     

    I think this is another situation of: "If you want something done (right), then do it yourself" sort of deal.  I've seen a lot of friends make apps as a hobby, and so it wouldn't surprise me if someone here had some experience in that field; otherwise: I think the current staff is a little bit scattered on directions and ideas, and a project like this could be a big drain.

  5. I don't have a smartphone, and so I don't know if Pidgin might be something of interest to you... might only be for the computer.  I remember using this for old school messengers like AIM and MSN, and I think they've updated it to include other things although I haven't moved on from ancient technology.  I'd like to note that they have plugins in case its more raw/stripped version doesn't support what you're looking for.

  6. This name was coined by someone I use to help while I was a volunteer coach for the special olympics.

     

    I was chit-chatting with some girl when the special olympian passed by and said

     

    "HIIII JOOOOOOSSSSHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYY WWWWWAAAAAAASSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHY!!!!!!!1!"

     

    The person I was talking to loved it, and so that became my name.  Some people in real life literally call me Joshy now.  Anyhow: I wasn't quite using this online until someone heard my voice over the microphone and said something along the lines of "Hey, kid.  Isn't it your bed time?"  I screwed around and changed my name to the most childish thing I could think of...  and with my typical (not very masculine and pathetic voice) I told them "My mom said I could stay up late today."  We all had a good time.  People were legit talking to me like I was a legit little kid.

    Clearly, Pigeon was the one to start cursing and insulting everyone before you corrected the situation.  Thanks for improving our community, Roxie.

     

     

  8. I wouldn't worry about it too much.  Let these kids be the winners they are.  They are better than both of us and all of us ;) .  Just say: "Okay.  You win.  You're right; I'm wrong.  I'm a loser."  I do it all the time, and it makes their day.

     

    Have a great vacation.  If you really enjoy being here, and it sounds to me like you have quite a few buddies here, then I hope you may give us another chance.  This is a big community and people will have their differences... don't let one or two people ruin it for you.

  9. I've got my final exams coming up, moving again, and I'm worried about work.  It has been on a little bit of the stressful side this week, but I had wonderful breakfast and lunch, a two hour nap, and I was feeling better and went to the gym.  I'll be seeing my family next week and will be around for 3 weeks.

     

    My work might be requiring me to do a gnarly background check.  This is very stressful.

  10. I see you have several bans for bad karma, and so I suggest Bad Karma.

     

    I didn't know you were a "coder" although I see it in your member title.  I think a fun and simple one could be something like While Zero (much like while(0) it never happens).

     

    You could have a play on your name like Marty , which I obviously opted for with my name.  Do you speak any other languages or what are your hobbies?

  11. I'm sorry for your loss.  Death always takes its toll even if I am more simply acquainted with someone rather than a family member of a good friend

     

    I like the pop-collar stuff going on!  I like doing that too.  I always joke with friends, that "You haven't been cool until you've been pop-collar cool."
