With the fear that CC will soon become a ghost town, those of us that don't want to see that happen must put forth suggestions to improve or promote the site. Here is a few I put into Suggestion:

Link 1 and 2 are the same, you must feel strongly about them.

On a different subject, its good to see positive threads created for ideas, instead of the numerous negative ones complaining about generally everything

always great to see volunteers pitching into the effort... if you bothered to read the "negative" threads, most of them are full of very good ideas on ways that the members of CC think the site can be saved... but hey, don't let a little thing like "facts" get in the way of your negative post disparaging threads that you obviously are not involved with and have obviously not read...-el Jesus negro

p.s.-i'm down with the band!!!

I should point (and in fact I want to grab a megaphone and shout it out even though I had nothing to do with it) that the status of the servers was posted in our fantastic Facebook page!

that is truly wonderful for all the facebook users on CC... i don't use FB... i assumed the servers went down in the nasty storms up north in dallas, so i knew they weren't coming back... that or brucewar was losing some matches, so he went to the server site and shut them down to get an edge in his games...-Jésus noir

Holy Cow, latte lord(Jesus if he existed was likely to have been caramel coloured) are you suggesting that the sprucewhore has access to CC's servers? Would be a grave error of judgement if that is the case.

Bring back flamewars

Get fair dice

Advertise, advertise and advertise

Stop moderation bans unless racism or pornographic

Revert back to game settings how they were a year ago when the add-ons worked. People HATE change even if it is an improvement. The game mechanics changes have resulted in major headaches for many players thus discouraging them and leaving a bad taste in their mouth after they paid their hard earned cash to play here. It is insulting to them. They paid for a service based on certain parameters and those parameters keep changing.

So BoganGod if the site is down how are you going to get information as to how long the site is going to be down? Or why the site might be down?

I remember a great other place that existed many years ago. One day the site went down. I checked and checked again and it was still down. I stopped checking and several months later I checked once more and it was back up. (Then it went down and when it came back up all the user content and log ins were gone.) There was no way for anyone to know what was going on.

Having an alternate way to get information is a good idea, especially if the servers go down.

When a game has been around long enough, gathered enough people, there will always be the naysayers and whiners.
I sincerely think that no matter WHAT the people in charge do, people would never stop complaining. You simply can't please everyone.
I wish all you people that spend every day complaining would just piss off. I just don't understand it: if things are so bad, if everything the owners do is for the worse, if the dice are so rigged, if that's is how some people feel why on earth do you stay? Piss off, and rid us of the incessant whining.

The only certainty in this world is constant change.

For years people complained that lackattack wasn't doing anything, wasn't implementing changes. Wham has. If that doesn't please people... well it just goes to prove my point doesn't it, people don't know what they want, and will never be happy.
If you tell us your perfect vision of CC, and it is implemented, we'd still have ten vocal yokels in here trashing it and whining. If we pick their vision and do it we'd have ten others in there whining. It is impossible to please everyone.

God knows why I bother coming in here and getting involved in a discussion. I usually stay out these days, because when you come in out of the first 10 threads there will usually be 3-4 about the bloody dice. Honestly, some people need to go play Chess. But as I've said before, they would never do that would they. Without the dice to complain about how could they face the fact that they just aren't that good?
If I lose a game I try to understand why and learn from it. Sure, sometimes it IS because of the dice. Most of the time it isn't.

PS, I did smile at the clip. :) And yes, I'm well aware I'm preaching to the deaf.

Announcements....... Remember those. What an effective way to let people know. How about a service disruption message when the site is down for scheduled sodomy of the poor abused coding.
"We regret to inform you that ConquerClub is unavailable for log in for the next 4hrs. Sorry for the pain and suffering"
Not difficult at all

This is a bit off-topic, but y'all seem to only consider internal factors. In my opinion, the Great Decline is mostly explained by external factors--e.g. changes in online consumer demand. Most people don't want to play games which are so mentally tasking. And furthermore they want something prettier and more interactive. I agree with your point about CC users being constantly unimpressed, but it overlooks the problem of the demand-side. There's hardly anything CC can do--short of drastically changing the website, which is an extremely risky project.

What a lovely video of us together Bogan. I suppose that one one of the days where there was no wind in the sails, and we'd been drinking too much rum. You sure did spend a lot of time on all fours. Whether it was seasickness, excess rum, or simply an invite, we'll never know.

@ BBS: excellent point.
