IMPORTANT DECISION « Thread Started on Oct 23, 2006, 6:29pm »
As you may or may not have noticed, I haven't been on much lately. My final year of highschool has proven to be more time consuming than I expected, and I'm starting a second job on November the 12th.
Thank you to the active members. Thank you to the new members. Unfortunately, this site has a plot designed for A LOT of members. There is too much that can be done with it that we need more members to use the most of it's potential. I've tried advertising myself. I've tried having a contest to win powers. Unfortunately, there is little to no response.
There are a few options that can be had:
1. Close the site for good. 2. Close the site for awhile, revamp, and open with a more mellow plot line. 3. Get more members so the site can stay opened. 4. Designate a Global Moderator to take over when I can't get on. 5. Leave it going how it is.
Personally, I'd hate to close the site, but I don't see it working right now. My personal vote goes for a combinations of three and four. If that's the case than I'd set up a new contest with something along the lines of one minor magic power per five members you refer that get accepted.
However, I need your opinions as to what should happen.
Jason, don't worry, I'll save you from her. I just have to find some soap to dissolve her fat

I think 2 could be a good idea.
I must admit I do feel like I'm in a giant maze. However, in the end, it's what you want that counts. I'm certainly not going to order you to revamp the site !

Okay, well it wont let me vote, oddly, but I think you should just let it be, sweets. I know I, for one, am busy AT THE MOMENT. I'm moving, and that takes a MONDO amount of my time, but after I'm all moved in and SETTLED in, things will be different, at least for me. I visit here every day even if I can't post... and believe me, I WANT to post.
Really, what would be the point in closing it down? Would it save you money? If there's a valid reason for deleting it, then do so... but if it's just a matter of you feeling defeat... then don't do it. Give it a chance. =) I find it interesting, btw, that Samuel is the only one saying you should close it for a while considering HIS site is much more quiet than this one. *raised eyebrow* Leave it,and if you do, I will do what I can (WHEN I can) to get it going again. Just like I'm going to do with my own site.
No offense intended, Sam, I just find your advice a bit hypocritical.
