In order to gain more players and growth...

Post by virtue »

Design a post that states what the shard is about, the old school style ruleset, mention it is FREE, say "tired of WOW? come play UO" ect.

Copy the post and post it on every forum you can think of. Especially the WOW forums lol. All populated forums.

I'm getting good feedback on the WOW forum lol.

Look - http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/threa ... 9989&sid=1

LOL!!!

Seriously, get out there and post on forums. All it takes is 1 read and someone will come join, even if the thread gets locked it doesn't matter. They saw it!

F* it got deleted, I was JUST about to post this:

Anyone that joins this server (UOSecondage) and wants to give it a try can PM me on the forums:

DrFaustus and I'll give them 50k to start.

G'luck, and don't talk shit on UO when you clearly have no idea what it is.

I was seriously tempted to go the generic boobs route, but I feel that might have hurt my creditability, for whatever that's worth ... =/

Someone can have this one if they want it.

Haha man! 80% of the posts in that thread were from old school UO players who said things like "best game ever" "UO is love". level 80 paladins and priests said that.

Who knows, maybe some of them will come here.

It was worth a try and the thread had about 40 replies and 500 views before it got deleted = )

I received a 72 hour suspension for advertising lol. Oh well, like I care.

I think you misunderstood my statement, but I suppose the context wasn't that easy to understand?

I was simply saying that you're getting hate from the generic WoW fanbois...

Oh well.

Yea, my bad. I actually meant to correct my post because it was obvious you meant no harm when I read your 2nd post hehe. My bad, once again.

I think we all need to raid the WOW forums again. Who's with me?

We can post threads at the same time.

I'm sure none of us cares if we get suspensions and whatnot. It would be funny.

Yea, Blizzard has two locations.

One in Cali and one in Austin TX. I worked at the one in Austin = P

I edited my post because I just realized it's totally wrong to say that stuff. Hehe, gotta keep it a secret to respect the company. Seriously, Blizzard may be sell-outs since WOW used to be great in vanilla but sold out as more expansions came out....BUT Blizzard treats their employees very well.
