By the way,

Anyone who wants to contribute input to what should be changed and what is being changed, feel free to add me on Steam (Don't have an account? Get one!) and suggest whatever you want to suggest.

Some things may be experimental, so input for how you guys like them is appreciated.

Steam needs to update and I can't remember my login cause I don't ever use it.

Suggestion one: Give C0ff1n back his cool mod powers.
Suggestion two: Reduce subforms to only things that have been active in the last month.

Suggestion four: Onsite use for LGG, if we can make a securer market place we can drive traffic even with a lack of user based contribution.
Suggestion five: Face lift forum. New look and name could give us a way to pump traffic in. Particularly with a more regulated trading/market or slew of nifty bots,crackers, etc for some popular something.

Probably. Still considering what to do about moderators. Lots of ways to handle it. I'm not against people having mod, but there are different methods of appointing mods, so going to decide on that first before handing out positions.

The forums will be restructured hopefully pretty heavily. For SEO reasons, I'm going to have to run each change through Arti, so this will be a slow-progressing but still happening area.

Already intended, with economic planning already underway. This will have to be the last change, though, since it will need to start around the time advertising takes place, so everything else needs to be cleaned up before the site is presentable advertise-wise.

New name is surely a no-go due to SEO. I don't oppose a new theme, but this one isn't bad for sure. Maybe alternative themes, or have users submit and vote on their favorite. Whichever.

The profile pictures are way to big.

Yeah, I have no clue why. The maximum size is supposed to be 100, and they're at 180 now. But the setting verbatim says they're on 100. I'll have to look into it. For now, it's not stretching anything, so it's not an immediate problem, but it will be fixed.

Running through derivatives of my usual usernames and passwords.

Cool. Keep me posted. Mostly just want to help.

Figured as much.

Good. I'd be willing to help with economic and advertising.

Theme is fine, name is fine too. People just like shiny new things. Well, people that use old things hate new things but random new people like shiny new things. Really we just need to re-brand, we're large;y know as a den of thieves who have since fallen from grace. We need to be legitimized and prove we're as good as ever. New name lets you walk away from old reputation easier but it's not something we can't handle. We just need to position ourselves as equal to or better than competition.

Add me on Steam.

If you want to help with economic stimulation, pull up as much spare Gaia/Runescape/other-only-economy gold/items as you can. However worthless you think they may be. Going to get as much together as possible to flood the LG market with once LGG comes back.
Or if you can program or have graphics talent, selling services is good too.

Here you add me. It refuses trk with me.

leave me a message or whatever. I'm going to go crash.

What happened? Can you make me a middleman again e_e
