EDIT (7/11/11): Please please try to visit/login at least 1nce per day (if its convenient) to help encourage new people. kudos to blackbolt for doing this more than me. I've noticed a few people are still logging in, but most members just stay logged out but still view the site. (I've even found some evidence that Frostleaf may have been regularly viewing but just not logging in lol) Anyway, here's the question: Do you think that I should try to revive the forums now (in this case I would try to motivate people by maybe creating a development log, describing my progress on power of three game after each session of programming) or wait until I've got a powerful motivating force to bring people back, say, the power of three game being released (I'm currently around halfway through programming Dark River), or the online game being brought back. Opinions on this?

We should make the log you are talking about only viewable by logging in and like i said earlier when we get a hold of frost we can work on a banner encouraging people to log in. All in all we need to revive the site. p.s. cannot wait for power of three

I agree with what blackbolt has stated. If I were you, I'd also have a contest regarding future subquests ideas for Power of Three - that may help activity. (: The winner could get some sort of prize..?

Good idea. Within a couple days I'll make a sot of "development log" and maybe add some pictures, as well as starting the contest. If someone gives an idea I like that can be implemented with the tools I've got, I'll give them some in-game bonus for a game of their choice (maybe 2M A, or a bunch of star light, or a lvl 99 cat or something). Thanks guys the development log should be up within a couple days

Well this revival failed i think the only option left is to recruit on the main site and hope that we appeal to some of the members who are inactive on the forum to come back. I think the forum will have active moments and inactive moments the next active moment i can perceive is when the power of three is released and/or the new prophecy online comes back out and/or has advertising. If anyone has more ideas on how to revive the site that have not been done before please suggest them.

If anyone has more ideas on how to revive the site that have not been done before please suggest them. well, at least we tried. i think you're right to assume we'll have occasional surges of activity (5+ members active/day for ~1-2 weeks. noticed one when i made the 2nd "ask questions here" post on the main site. they seem to correlate w/ days when im getting over 800-900 daily pageviews on the main site.) hopefully they'll be more permanent after i finish po3 game, like you said.

Would bring them back and chain them to the game . see he already attempted that with developer blog but it didnt really do anything. hopefully more updates to the blog will bring people back because it is exclusive content that the site doesn't provide
