ALERT! PU NEEDS MOTIVATION!

I'm really not sure what, because I'm really not good with these kinds of things. I think we should do something that doesn't involve PO though, I think we need something on the forums. It might attract some attention, and possibly get the forums going a little bit more.

I agree mostly. Though I think it should have both a forum thing and a PO thing, last time we streamed PO over the forums and it was quite successful. It had something like 60+ viewers at one point. I imagine it would be even more this time as I have our balance server set to public and we get random people in all the time. Some like the idea of a balanced meta game others do not. Can't please everyone though.

I understand why; most (if not all) of the active members are part of a guild, and lots of them are RPers. Since the guilds were made so early on, there aren't many guild-related things for the members to talk about. These threads basically serve the purpose of the old Chit Chat thread. It's all random conversations about various topics. I think that, in the future, we're going to need to start making threads for these conversations. I think people might be more compelled to join in on a conversation if it's not in a guild thread.

I completely 100% agree. Thats why EE keeps it's guild thread about 95% guild talk, and chit chats on the balance server.

I've seen people on the forums say that they mostly hang out on the PU balance server (which is fine), but I have some fond memories of the IRC, and I know there will be people (like me) that would prefer to use the IRC channel instead of downloading PO solely for the purpose of hanging out with the other members.

I would like to see IRC active again, it seems so dead lately. Though I will probably never return to it. PO takes about 1-5 mins to download depending on your internet connection. IRC needs to be downloaded as well unless you plan on using a web client at all times which is highly unlikely as the constant DC's will get annoying(Happens to everyone, I used to be on IRC 24/7 and saw tons of web client related issues) so either way you end up downloading something. Also in the near future PO will be able to be accessed via web client. :D But, we do need both so we need someone to bring IRC back from the grave.

I don't ever recall having problems with DCing myself, but I do remember Kamaran and Spirit having issues with it. Other than that, all I saw was the occasional DC or ghost problem. Maybe back then the problem wasn't as common, it could be a newer issue that popped up. My memory is kinda fuzzy.
So long as I've taken the initiative to try to get the forums going again, I could be our "official" forum reconstruction guy. That way you guys can focus more on the game, while some of the remaining members and I can work on rebuilding the forums. Since further development of the game will contribute to the re-population of the forums, and vice versa, I think it would be beneficial to have two separate groups working on the game and the forums. Not that we don't need the team's help, of course. It would just take some of the burden off of you guys and help you focus on the game.
Tickles:
Go for it. I'm sure you can figure something out. We would greatly appreciate that. We are working hard on the game, and want to give you guys a good experience too, but that was already our focus.
TrainerX:
Alright, I will begin brainstorming and devising plans. At some point I'll probably get a thread started for this, to help keep things organized.
