7946 have completed more than 10 games, up 110 from last time I checked. So either, some players are returning, or some new recruits are making it passed my ten game arbitrary threshold.

that's the thing, he is dead on serious... even has a suggestion up that has morphed into paying for the forums if you don't take a 4 week class to get a "forum license"... that will bring the forum back to life!!!-Jésus noir

Are you counting bot games, or just games with humans?

If it includes bot games, I think it supports the hypothesis that bots are helping our new member retention rate.

I'm just going to games completed on the scoreboard and checking how many have completed over ten. This, to me is a decent indicator of how many the site has got a hook in at the moment.

I guess that will include bot games.

stay non premium and play bot games. that way the site is paying to stay open on free games not against each other. its the only solution in going back old school.

Perhaps it is in the sites best interest to encourage a free platform, but Johnny you just sound vindictive rather than productive.

The irony of this post being that you were the first one to misread the suggestion and turn it into something that it was not :roll:

One can hardly blame an OP if a suggestion is hijacked by numpties and turned into something else.

Sadly, what you seem to fail to see, is that the forum is the problem, not the solution.

ok I am back after several years of not being involved. Some pure marketing ideas from someone with 2 businesses and gross sales over 5mm

1. Reach out to old members with a promotion of 7 free games active at one time. ( those that really enjoy it and pay for it play at least 20 at a time.)
2. fix the band with issue ( maybe this has been done already) but when I stopped playing several years ago it was because I was getting screwed in freestyle games because the site was not fast enough. If it has been fixed then put a gross speed limit on the heavy gamers so those that are not working a 10MW pipe have a chance.
3. reach out to active members. give away a free gold membership for anyone that refers a player that pays for a membership. this is increasing revenue and rewarding current silver players
4. do some live stuff. create a game board out of some of the more popular ones and have a convention.
