Ideas

[Discyo]

I wonder if the ideas which got already been propsed will ever see the sunlight on smolderforge?

1. Crossfaction Battlegrounds: Is there any plans on developing such a Feature?
2. Replacing LFG with a World channel ( for non english Client user LFG bugs)
3. Adding Player Online List to the Homepage, why developing such a tool when it's not linked to the Homepage?
4.Reduce Queue time for Arena to 2minutes, I know the 5 minutes are there to prevent farming new created Teams but when you get a Rating difference higher than 250 ( not sure if its 250 ) you've got to wait 5 minutes this means you need to wait atleast 50 minutes to get 10 games.

I'd be highly grateful if one of the Smolderforge Staff or even Hen could give some Feedback on this, thanks - Rule

I agreed ^ Kez staff member ??

[Horrorfever]

Horrorfever hereby agrees with the presented suggestions as well as suggesting a few of his own:
1. Mark exchanger - make marks tradeable, example - 3 WSG marks for 1AV mark, 2AB marks for 1AV mark, 1AV mark for 2WSG, etc etc.
2. Unban Horrorfever

I wish Cross faction BGs would at least be considered. I know there still is a small net of people who would rather afk all day in the sand for 3 bg pops, rather than potentially helping Passion. I get it, I don't really want that either, but this has become increasingly unplayable.

The queues nowadays die at 3pm or 4pm my time(PST) until around 3am, then again at 6am, then again at 9am for AV. Best case, you get approximately 5 hours of BG. Maybe.

Not sure about arena, however Kez, Discyo, and Strongdruid would know best, as they have control over that right now.

@Henhouse You might want to either do something, or give strong consideration over shut down. I mean no offense here, but I'm just trying to understand "Why?", I can't logically see this as anything else but dead weight at this point.

[Horrorfever]

I'll buy the server.

For some strange reason, I have a feeling Xios would get it before you did. I don't recall, did Grael have an email with @smolderforge? Am I reading too much into this? With Henry not doing Ban appeals anymore, not doing item transfers anymore... I have to wonder, is he even in the picture now? I know college eats your time up like mad, but it seems like he's stepping back more than he has in the past.

[Horrorfever]

Grael did have a @smolderforge email, yes.

I'll buy it from Xios.
Make him an offer he can't refuse.

[Zap]

I'd comment on that, but I guess we cannot directly mention him without losing the post or forum ban.

Though knowing Grael did also, okay. So it's not as likely that Henry's passing the reins. Just this odd feeling in my gut.

[Horrorfever]

Henry woudn't pass the reins and he doesn't really need to, if this was about profit it would have been both closed long ago, nor would the donation prices be like the ones we have.

My bet it is like a hobby or that old dog you love and are carrying for.

Bottom line is it doesn't have to be dead weight either (since he obviously can afford the losses to pay for the host, considering we are on for so long) and on the other side he can literally leave somebody else as head administrator or whatever (basically running everything) with him remaining as the owner and sysadmin.

So yeah, I doubt Henry would pass it away.
Can we see someone like Xios/Grael completely running the show? I believe we are from a while, yet still Henry is here.

And so am I.
Am I henry?
#UnbanHorror?
#AllATrick?

[Zap]

Hmm. You have a point.

Though when Grael was around, Henry was still involved. Not as much as we all would like, alright... But he still was trying to get stuff fixed or release new content.

I've seen a steady decline in that since that era. What your said about someone else running the show with him remaining as owner made the most sense, and very well might be the case.
