10th Game PM

by **sailorseal** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 10:56 am

A PM after the completion of a player's 50th game directing them to the forum. I think this is a good idea because the forum is so hidden away up there that players fail to notice it.

Concise description:

After a player's 10th game is completed s/he receives an auto PM directing them to the forum
A message such as:
Since you have completed 10 games it looks as if you are enjoying your time here at Conquer Club. Conquer Club is not just about the game but there is also a forum for things such as
Strategy discussion
Map Creation
and much more! We invite you to visit The Forum, which is located in the center of tabs at the top of your screen.
Regards,
The Conquer Club

You have to be kidding? Look at your sig :roll:

by **jpcloet** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 11:04 am

Sigs cannot be larger than 600*150. Sailor's looks ok to me. However, cena, your sig is too large due to the text.

Please correct.

first rules are rules... whether you like them or not.

second can we get bac o topic... i think the pm should be sent out after 5 games.

by **sailorseal** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 2:09 pm

I added an idea of what the PM would be

by **GrimReaper.** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 2:29 pm

50 games is to long

by **obliterationX** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 2:37 pm

50 is way too long. It will feel like 200 games if you play 8-ways all the time. Also, you got to love the touch. "sailorseal and Conquer Club". I'm not going to stop you being a wannabe moderator, because it's funny. :lol:

by **sailorseal** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 2:39 pm

So what do you recommend? and I figured that would give everyone a laugh :lol:

i said 4 games since all new recruits get a pm about the society of the cooks, and you didnt get a laugh out of it. your just being pathetic by trying to get noticed by the mods.

Let's try not to flame bait or troll

Members often leave after having played five and they might not like the game enough for the forum yet

by **GrimReaper.** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 2:57 pm

then why have 50? just edit the pm that goes out already.

Hey, It is a good idea, even if people find sailor annoying. It took me way to ling to realize that to forum was this cool and I don't think that I have even plaied 50 games.

If members often leave after playing five games, then what good will sending it at FIFTY games do?!? :lol:

Think, Sailor, think! I know that small brain of yours can do better!

Oh the irony.

Well players that stay to fifty show higher signs of commitment, you can join four games, play one and join another, then leave and you get five

yes but players who stay 50 games have read the pm that goes out from the SoC forum. so why not add things to that pm and then they can get introduced to the other forums at the same time.

by **GrimReaper.** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 8:09 pm

anything else to add?

by **DarthBlood** on Sun Apr 05, 2009 8:12 pm

ok, so 50 is too much, and 5 is too little. how about 10?

most noobs tend to go straight towards giant 8 player games that take days to finish. and then some do only 1v1s. 10 seems to be the best compromise.

well here is my point of view. a pm is already sent out after five to newly ranked players telling the about the SoC so why not tell them in the same pm about the entire forum?
