I'll be honest, I've had (not mega-serious) conversations with a variety of friends in my sphere of web development about the idea of finding the capital to purchase the website and give it a massive (and I do mean MASSIVE overhaul) into the modern era, but it takes a lot of money and I don't ...

Less than 10,000 active users? Yes, Conquer Club is definitely on the decline and in its current state, highly unlikely to recover.

Who the f*ck are you

The guy who was helping run the website when it had over 22,000 active users?

Actually OP.going through the stats on archive.org you started ...

Exactly what kind of benefit is this "Inventory" feature? I can join a tournament with them or just look at them? I can already join a tournament without them and why would I want to collect them just to stare at? This makes absolutely no sense. Come on guys, you can do better.

A long long time ago in a CC far far away I reached out to the creator of Random.org, Dr Mads Haahr. I explained to him the way the dice work at CC, and he was nice enough to respond back. He confirmed the way CC was picking numbers wasn't a truly random method of picking numbers, only pseudo ...

I'd still like to see what kind of ideas any members of the site who work as professional graphics/web designers would propose.

Most people who work as designers in the professional capacity, don't really have the time to go about coming up with a design that may or may not get used. You know ...

No good homepage requires scrolling.

As a professional in the field of web development I can assure you there are plenty of great home pages that require scrolling. However, Conquer Club itself should never need a home page that scrolls. There simply isn't a need to put so much information on the ...

I've noticed that the home page has been changed again. While I still don't agree it's all that great, it is an incredible improvement over what it was when I first made this thread. At least it makes a semblance of sense now, whereas before it didn't. I'd still like to see what kind of ideas any ...

Its all a conspiracy.

My guess is BW (aka mibi) bought the site and is looking for a WCW / WWF merge for cash.
mibi wouldn't've let that happen to the home page...

Damn straight he wouldn't have let that happen to the home page.

If only we lived in an internet where the only thing that ...

I firmly believe that all the new features added to the game lately are of a benefit. There is never anything wrong with more options, especially when it comes to this kind of game, but I also firmly believe that if the new ownership wants Conquer Club to first return to its glory days of 20-22k ...

Yes, but you can't solve everything all in one go. New user signups increased but retention of new users stayed flat. So we also need to work on projects that keep new users, and a big one is in testing right now. None of these is the magic bullet, but each one alone is necessary towards the larger ...

but to make claims that the current administration are currently doing things that are leading to an increase in active users is sketchy at best.

Making claims based on actual data regarding how many users are signing up is sketchy? What would be better?

My point is that whatever the new ...

This is still going... Wow!

Ok so a few from the design industry have digressed. Anyone from Marketing care to throw a few punches?

It's an improvement for mobile devices to quickly show content within for new players. So for everyone who hates it (and you really must be apple fans with your ...

Do I know you? I don't remember "demanding attention," but I do remember asking a question which I think was legitimate.

Well the people running this site could do nothing. They at least are spending their money ( time ) doing something. Good or bad we all have our opinions. I think more options more users, even though some I don't care for. But get your money CC that's what I do, so why hate?
New features are great ...

Absolutely a coincidence. There's no way it isn't a coincidence of astronomical proportions.

I want answers! The new homepage looks terrible!

I'll admit, I haven't been back to Conquer Club in well... a very long time. But I needed to return and look something up today and when I arrived... DEAR LORD!

Who on earth thought this new design was an improvement over the old one? The original layout and design might not have been all that ...

Huh, well what do you know. Didn't think that was going to happen anytime soon.

Me! Me! Me!

Have we ever had a Conqueror that made it all the way from 1000 points to the top of the scoreboard as a non-premium player the entire way? I don't think we have, but for some reason today I am curious.

While not the punishment I thought would be the best fit, I can fully support the punishment that was meted out to the offenders.

Thank you for re-opening the case and giving it a more detailed examination. I think this speaks rather loudly to the kind of investigation that can be accomplished if ...

I want to clarify that I didn't have a problem with the thread being temporarily locked, I just think that given the nature of the situation that the only person who should be locking or unlocking that C&A thread is AndyDufresne.
