| 1 + people join the JA every day. Why aren't the servers/forums overflowing with activity? | |

I notice every day that I check the forums there is a list of new members. How come I rarely ever see any of them?

dead game is dead _______________ Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??" |

Hehe.
Well if people do not look at the site anyway, they would not get any server informations in the first place. Thus rendering a better placement for a server-connect guide obsolete. _______________ Proud owner of Buster Senatu's 200th & 300th, Muro's 370th, Maher's 2100th, Henkes' 1639th, Johauna's 400th, 666th and 900th, Sho Koon's 2000th and Kain Sol's 600th comment Download Laziana's lightsaber here!

Quote: The holocron provides such information.
That is correct. I am sorry, but I at least expect that people are smart enough to check the About Us page - since they should get a clue what this place is about even BEFORE signing up, you know. And on the About Us page you have links to the forums and to the holocron. And the guide in the holocron that helps you joining one of the Academy's servers is very nice and detailed. _______________ Proud owner of Buster Senatu's 200th & 300th, Muro's 370th, Maher's 2100th, Henkes' 1639th, Johauna's 400th, 666th and 900th, Sho Koon's 2000th and Kain Sol's 600th comment Download Laziana's lightsaber here!

I still think that if new users are struggling to come to terms with how to connect an easy to follow user guide should go up on in a thread. _______________ <MaherSenatu> guh... you are just...

Perhaps provide a user friendly guide on how to connect to servers, either using the consule or a connection program, e.g. HLSW, with screen shots. shouldn't be that hard to whip up. _______________ <MaherSenatu> guh... you are just...

Quote: 2. when they finally log in for the first time, they post a random thread saying hi and then checks the servers which are empty at that moment. the new user gives up and forgets that TJA even exists. Yeah, I've been thinking that it would be good for someone to note every newbie that the place is NOT dead even though the servers aren't active all the time. Also add that it is not a downside to have less activity (when compared to those public/clan servers) especially in this case with these people. Some kind of template noting about these things could work I guess. As it's been said before, we can't make them stay if they don't want to but in many cases I think the problem is as SaZ described. Quality over quantity 4 evah!!

ppl give up fast.
1. the account activation process takes awhile - during that time they might give up or forget that TJA even exists. 2. when they finally log in for the first time, they post a random thread saying hi and then checks the servers which are empty at that moment. the new user gives up and forgets that TJA even exists. those are the same users that post in 'looking for master' and consider themselves 'willing to learn' and 'patient' while they only login once. damn bastards  _______________ playing jk3 since 30th of january (2005), member since 1st of february.
