Yeah, pretty much all the active members of there have either gone to a new country, or aren't playing. I'm just kinda sitting around seeing whats happening. It appears though, that the SME is dead. Which isn't much fun for me. I don't have the time to be a leader, but I do want to participate in the game. And being in a dead country is no fun. |

I noticed that if you look at the members here regarding the amount of posts, almost everyone on the first three sites has been registered at Senso  So those who were active here are now at Senso.
Exile, I wasn't aware you are there as well. Uncomfortable that I sometimes don't realise who's who over there with new names and all... ^^ _________________

| Hm, yeah I started as Exile over there too but we had a bit of a theme going with the names so I bought into it, hence I'm Teo McDohl on that site. _________________

| Yeah I was allowed a name change because there wasn't a policy in place governing it, I know Elc isn't keen on seeing name changes occur frivolously.
On a side note sparked by Locke I did a quick bit of maths. While the SME has the lowest number of members we actually have the 4th highest average number of posts per member. So there may not be so many of us but we're certainly not inactive in comparison to any of the other nations. _________________

| Potch is not exactly an indicator for activity. Someone like me for example who prefers to write short posts doesn't have such a high potch count like for example Kwanda who writes longer posts - even though I have nearly double as much posts than him he has around 9,000 potch while I have around 11,000.
There are a lot of members who post every day, but not let's say 20 posts per day but 3 or 5. These members are also active but might not have the time to be online for hours. So these nations whose members post on a regular base are active. They were not if nobody posts there for days and I don't see that this is the case. Like I said: some have more time, some have not. It's already said several times that potch are not that important at Senso and the post count doesn't affect the stats of each player in the war game. In your list of the 20 Top-posters there are only 11 non-NL or non-Admin members, since the Nation Leaders and Admins had earlier access to the forum your list isn't that meaningful regarding the activity of each nation, at least in my opinion. ^^ |

| Activity means very little now. Stats are not affected by posting and I think soldiers are not bought for potch but are gained in another way. So thus as long as everyone in a nation is happy there is no real need to post more than you want to.
Of this I approve. _________________  |

| Potch is important for different reasons. It will be the only surefire way of providing for character upgrades, purchasing consumable items or armor and accessories. Potch is also necessary for maintaining the nations, which is a much higher priority than it was during the Suikox game. In fact, it is quite possible that how a nation is maintained could affect how easy it is to defend/conquer regions.
There are really only two ways to get potch, aside from random contests: activity or being successful in party battles. Activity is, thus, quite important, but it also won't cause characters to be passed over and degrade if they cannot participate for a lengthy period of time, as they can always give permission for their character to be included in party battles, which will gain them experience as well as their share of the potch spoils. We have specifically made it so spamming will not have any effect on character stats at all. In fact, blatant spamming* will only result in spamming zones (whether they happen to be nation forums or community forums) will be configured to not produce potch nor count towards the post counts of whomever happens to post there. *we do not consider "blatant spamming" to simply be people who happen to be really active and post quite a bit. Rather, blatant spamming is where people post for the sake of posting or if they are trying to get enough posts to graduate from a rank they do not like. We do not want to punish the active, though we do not want to reward the spammers, either. _________________

| If that is true, SME doesn't need any more advertising, because Grassland will be officially the nation with the least members ^^ _________________

| Yes we actually have 8 members now, thanks to Masa and Locke joining their old nation from this site. We've turned a bit of a corner over the last week and got some people in and we're going along nicely now. _________________
