  Suggestion to GET MORE PLAYERS  

GC needs more players, and here`s my suggestion:

Make the reward for recruiting players better.... the current reward is what... 150k credits? That`s like, nothing, with a capital `N`. In other words, there`s no motivation to recruit players into the game using your recruit link.

So here`s the deal... make the reward something like, 1 minor gordo for every person who signs up from your recruit link, or 1 planetary capsule... somehting that is rare and hard to get, not just pathetic 150k...

So yeah, do this and i can guarantee ppl will start recruiting like crazy and GC will definately grow.

maybe we should creat more RACIAL fights as well
Terran can fight all races
Guardn & Viral are limited to what they can hit

or catorgorize fighting levels

someone with 1,ooo wins maybe only fight someone of 1,ooo wins or more
someoen with 2,ooo wins may only fight someone with 2,ooo wins or more

the top dog with wins then would be screwed & hopefully not a big planet holder cause then he might run out of targets with this suggestion but it balances out the game if you ask me cause then top dog is resticted to his next strongest link (enemy since if you both in the same fed your in the same predictement)

Or maybe a block on vets hitting newbs till they`ve a least won a few battles. Probably hard to do, but when I joined as a newb terran my average time out of dp was about 6 seconds. That`d stop a lot of people...

SpArTanDReaM more abuse & misuse. Plus to much of a security pain in the butt checking on everyone

i dont think we should get people signning up... thats not the problem... they come & then they go cause GC is unfriendly place to be & is hard for newbieies

simple solution rather than limit 1 acct per server make it limit 1 acct per race.

simple math 6x100 (active players) = 600 average online


more targets more trickery and potentially mor money for stephen

the only thing i would say about giving artis or other stuff to the new players and the players that invited them is that maybe it should not happen till the end of 2 weeks or a month etc

otherwise i think it is too open to abuse with accounts made just to give players an advantage(the paid gordos etc) making it wait time wont neccessarily stop this but at least it means the new players might stick around long enough to get the reward.

Unless it has been changed i believe the slave link still doesnt work(except giving 150k credits) could be wrong with that part though

oh oh... why not include enslavement crab lol

instead each players gives up 15% of income to each other instead of just the slave... that could help a newbie out in starting up with free money coming in lol

I agree with Bobbys, the "slave" label just has a stigma to it and newbies won`t want to join and be slaves. The regalo idea is great though. I`d love gordos, but Regalos will offer a range of artis. Drunken`s idea about paids would be great too. Getting people addicted to paids might make them more inclined to pay in the future.

Why can`t we just do a "trial run" of this? Try it for a month or two and see what effect it has, kind of like a test market. Then evaluate whether it is worthwhile and cost-effective. It could bring in more revenue!
