LOL Ryu, I met her over the phone with some other girls and got to know them before seeing them. She wasn't the best looking to some people maybe, but we connected on a personal level, or at least I thought. Turned out to be the relationship from hell in the end, but hindsight is 20 20.

Point proved, Battle.net was alive until 2009! Lol. Yes no CD Key and no disc is one big thing that keeps people playing here I agree. It is proven advertising anything will bring more people to what you are advertising. The server may be self advertising in ways, but obviously not fully or the player base wouldn't be dropping. Trying to reach out to old players or posting advertisements on gaming sites or payed advertisements on public sites can't hurt anything. You can say the game is self advertising and in the past it has done well that way yes, it's also been dropping in users in recent years. I advertise Warcraft 2 in the description of all of my videos, on my PBall Players Group, to people I meet or my friends. The point is advertising can't hurt anything.

"Have the client and server ready and welcoming.  This means:" if you they don't know  the website having the download link in an easy to find section is going to do nothing. "Have the client and server ready and welcoming.  This means: Reach out to long-gone players who remember the game fondly" this is still advertising, its just advertising to a select group.

It appears I have a memory of what really happened. I met the Mother of my kid in 2006, I introduced her to Warcraft 2 and we played on Battle.net from 2006-2009. There were many players at the time such as , Me, Killa_Yaky. x[Dw]x-Chogall, WorkOfArt, EricWagner, Elmodoesdrugs, Murd0ck , ther were 100s of people. I played well over 1000 games from 2006-2009. What would time stamps on the occult forum mean shit? Is there also screen shots showing no one on, because it's not true, there we're still players on Battle.net until 2009. There may not have been much GOW the community mostly moved to RU, but there were people and games hosted on Battle.net for years after 2005 and the channel was never once empty from 2005-2009.

Lol Lance you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about here. Battle.net died in 2009 when I came here. In about 2007 or so everyone went to West for a year or so then we came back to East for a year before it totally died in 2009! I had 8000 games on xXxSmeagolxXx on East I ought to know. There were 100s of people still playing Battle.net after 2005 lmao.

No one has denied anyone can do it Blid. There are people who do it, the point is why can't the administration as well. Your time of adding icons, transferring stats, and shit will be done soon. The question was asked what else admins can do and those are things you can do, or assign someone to do. If you want the users of the server to do I don't see why the leadership can't as well. I wasn't even saying like these fuckin admins they are so inactive they are useless or anything, I was giving suggestions.

2008-2009 A huge number of people came here because Battle.net totally died lmao.  The features you're talking about are what regular users of the game want mainly. If you say to someone that has never played Warcraft 2 get custom icons, anti hack, and do server commands with bots instantly! They are going to be like wait what's Warcraft 2? I have no idea what those things are.  Most the people who play on this server play here because there is no other server for Warcraft 2, and most of them came here when Battle.net died. Having features is going to help keep new players, but keeping the 200 people that play this game isn't going to do shit if you don't bring new people in as well. I'm not against adding new features to keep new players, you also have to get new players as well its a two way street.

The places you are naming, are places that users need their product. No one needs Warcraft 2. As you can see the numbers are falling on the server , so advertising could obviously help. If I need a tire and there's only one tire company in town obviously I'm probably going to go there. There are probably millions of free games, how is someone going to know to play Warcraft 2? The game is spread by users and it keeps dropping in users, so the answer wouldn't be to implement some advertisement plan? Hmm

You act like I listed each admin then said exactly what they should and shouldn't be doing. I said the administration should be advertising the game or assigning someone to do it and you take it as a personal attack or that I'm, "Pointing fingers" . The other suggestions I made are valid too, you are the leadership of this game, you want others to do stuff, shouldn't you lead by example or put people into leadership positions who will? I basically made some suggestions of things admins could do after Il asked(all things that can help the game) and you want to act like I'm tearing down the administration. The administration hosting tournaments, advertising the game, and anything else they can do to help the game isn't accusations it's helpful suggestions.

Lol mouse is getting all butthurt, don't mean to say it that way but it's true. You volunteered so your argument is I volunteered so I shouldn't have to do full work? If you don't have the time assign someone else, it's not rocket science Mouse. I never said what you did wasn't valuable, all I said was there is other things the administration can do once server commands are taken care of by bots. If you think admins should have no responsibility for anything once the bots are up great Mouse. The fact remains it's not a business, but it is a product and an organization. I have hosted tournaments and put up my own money for tournaments, advertised this server in videos so don't act like I have no idea the time and energy involved. If you feel its a free service and you volunteer so you  and the administration shouldn't try to make it better, that's a terrible attitude.

No one is pointing fingers Mouse all in your head. You still fail to see that Il asked a question and I answered. I don't care what any of you say advertising your own site falls on you not the users. So by your account of things Mouse the local Subway, the people who patronize subway should be making advertisements for it... Lmao. You only feel like I'm pointing fingers because your work as an admin is on the site, and you do nothing of what I said. Hosting tournaments and helping people can for sure fall to other people. Advertising your own site falls on other people, pshh please. I'm not even saying it's YOUR job or any specific admin, it should be your job to make sure it's getting advertised by someone though. If you don't want input on what admins should do maybe Il shouldn't ask.

Also Blid I'm not calling you out personally. I respect that you pay the server free, and yes you have been here from day 1, so you have done your share. I was asked and I simply shared what leadership of an organization means to me.

I find it funny how this got split from the main thread. Il asked a question I answered. I didn't mean to start a big discussion or an argument, i meant to show that the leadership(administration) of anything have more duties than commands. If you are the leadership of a business or organization you would want to get your product(War2Combat) out to as many people as you can, or you would want to assign someone to do that. As the leadership of something you would also want to make your product(Warcraft 2) as fun as possible, that's why I said hosting tournaments. There are other things an admin could do as well, was just saying advertising, hosting tournaments, as an Admin you should want these things because its your site, but yes anyone can do it.

Yeah I guess I remember now that Blid pays the server payment. That's great I respect that, I'm just saying being on the administration of anything I would think part of your job would be to make that grow and make it the best experience possible. I didn't even mean to call anyone out, Il asked a question I just answered admins could advertise and maybe one could host tournaments. Yes normal users can advertise and host tournaments like me and Tora. We do it because we love the game and want to make it grow, if you are an admin I imagine the same is true of you and that's why you are an admin, so the same should go for you.
