He's just a troll. No need to take anything someone who's made two posts in a year seriously, especially when he's putting down members who have spent years making this site into the community it is. He just doesn't really know what he's talking about. _________________

That may be, but in the right light it's highly amusing he's even trying.
It's also another thing to consider that people came to the site were rather young when they first signed up. I was in my final year of highschool when I joined back in 2004, and I know Tonberry was only 13 or something when he did. And now most are getting ready to graduate highschool themselves, or are in their first or second year of college. While those of us who are older are well into our lives either with new children, new jobs, new.. alot of things. While alot of us had alot of time on their hands, time has become alot more precious though I only know of a very few I'm friends with who doesn't visit the at least once a week. _________________ Be awed by our prowess!

So, if we could put the distractions behind us and get back to the topic at hand, that'd be nice.
I think a war system at another site is a good idea, but like I think Elc said, it takes time to create and to put one out rushing it just to appease the people will result in failure. I was involved at FFP heavily trying to get that up and running and I feel the failure of it wasn't the lack of interest, but the lack of solid leadership. The admins there bickered too much about things that were pretty trivial. But talking about that is irrelevant.
So, if there is a new site to be developed, I'd be more than happy to join and be an active member. I'd help in whatever way I could. _________________ I'm sorry and I apologize are the same thing.

Yeah, to make stuff like this work you really need one person who has the final say on everything, or have one person develop everything initially. It's a "too many chefs on one pot" deal. Having too many people with equal say in a project is always a bad idea, especially if many of those people don't have any actual development skills (such as how to program PHP).
Because of my experience in other sites, I developed Suikox pretty much on my own. The old war system was almost entirely my own creation, although I did incorporate many of the suggestions made by members. However, like the whole sub-prime mortgage deal, things that get too big without the capacity to support the thing results in a collapse. |
