Back in the day, each Tav (host) was it's own lil community. So, have the people who frequent the different Tav's come up with a slogan.

Maybe the patrons could vote for an offical bartender/wench (which in turn is that forum's Mod?).

After members find their old friends here, they'll exchange email address' to communicate. Then they'll check the site occasionally for new members and such. I know the forums are not the same as the old Tav's, but how do we keep'm coming back?

Just thinking too much :)

Getting them commin back is kinda a tempermental beast.... I think Slo would have to make a perminate state of updating the boards/website in order to keep things moving... Generate more interest in the site some by keeping things changing and constent...

Just my 2 coppers worth....

I agree with ya Tiger. The main thing that'll keep'm coming is when's Yserbius coming back.
Now that we have all this attention, this is the best chance of getting help for development. Even if it's just gathering game info, it's progress :)

Hey

Thats why I hired you guys, to help me with this lol.. I am so swamped at work,, this project has went from 20 mill to 30 mill and my time to spend here at the board is minute for the next couple weeks.

Here is my thoughts...

The average of people who come here and come back again is about 12 percent.. we have 114 members and 12 members with more than 10 post is my formula for this. I feel with increases in Membership we will see a continuation of that percentile so by 200 we will have 24 active members. There is only so much web content one can change on a website devoted to Yserbius. So I feel only the truly Interested will continue here.
I have no problems giving you Navic and Tiger Admin rights to the Forums if you want to make changes etc etc. all I ask if you dont know what it does dont touch it. I have learned that lesson several times already.
I think like everything else it will come and go. There will be terrific amounts of interest then it will wane and come back over and over. I mean some people here, would do checks on yserbius every year or so. so assuming people can be as far as 2 years on their personal timer. I would say for 3 months well actually 2.5 months according to when I registered Slohand on the board then I would say 56,000 page views is quiet a feat. Actually 56k is not very accurate. my server reports over 500,000 page views in 2.5 months and I tend to believe that. as also 5620 unique visitors not counting Search engine Bots. of which we are being crawled daily by at leat 3 bots. I have a advertising campaign set up with Kanoodle and Yahoo and Google. and in the last week out site has had 389 Click throughs as of this morning. If you look at any one time we have alot of guest here looking around, go to the Self Destruct link and you will see what those IP's are and where they are going when they get here. I have restricted the download section to registered members only so alot of people only register for the game and then they are gone, perhaps they will return perhaps not. We are after all probably the last place on this planet where you can download This game not counting Xensoft because it stays offline alot. so I think we should focus on what we and who we have and the rest will come,, i mean i never expected 114 members and 56k hits 3 months ago look now. I mean this is not all me guys and gals.. Sure i started this,, but there is no way I can handle it all by myself. so i believe it is a team effort. So formulate a plan and decide what you want to do with the place and I will help facilitate this by giving you all the access and help I can to make it happen. what do you think folks? Slo

Well... Maybe we should divy up the responsablities then... Like I'm handling the News, and Navic's doin the content/Links.... I agree with the point that if ya don't know, don't touch.... Like I pointed out in the email, there's alot of little things that need to be fixed, that Navic and I can't really fix.... It pretty much depends on what kind of responsabilities you want to give us Slo, you did start this... And, I can't speek for Navic, but I'm willing to help in any and every way possible to keep things interesting, fixed, updated, running... ect... So, maybe giving Navic and I Admin rights for everything, could help the strain ya currently have.... Take the Admin tool and devide it down the middle... Half for Navic, half for myself....

End speech.

:roll:

I gotta say, I'm clueless beyond Survey's, Content and Links. But in the same breathe, I was clueless about that stuff until you let me have at it :) I'll help with anything ya need bro's, thou I may need tech support to do it. :lol: Tiger is definitely the better man for Admin Assistant (?) Just let me mess up, er, mess with the forums :D I would like to add a Dev Help forum.

I hear what your saying about the sites hits waning and waxing... Almost every message board I've found with the word Yserbius saw 10-30 posts for a few week period then nothing. Most of them hadn't had a post for a few years until I posted. Just like BloodCelts message board... until Slo posted there... there wasn't a post for a year. How'd ya beat me there? :)

Let me know what ya's want me to do.

Slo, email us the password to the towncrier when ya get a breather.

BTW... IRONHORSE and me are trying to figure out how to get control of the abandoned INN/TSN webring.

Ok Navic and Tiger look at the bottom of this forum screen and see if you see a link to a admin panel? You should have access to the panel to make adjustments to the forums if you have any doubts ask someone before you attempt it. Thanks guys... hey i havent seen Cyren much,, you there Cyren?

Speaking of the mass emails... Navic's in charge of the newsletter? or are you? In any case.... are the three of us able to see/mod the newsletter and just not send it out or what?

We are going to be putting it together in a group effort. i will set up a format and everyone who is on the newsletter will work their portion of it and upload it i have adobe acrobat professional version with the distiller here so I will send the newsletter out from the site and then copy it to a pdf file to store here on the website for future reference. hows that sound?
