Possible FFR Rebirth Project?

Re: Possible FFR Rebirth Project?

SMO has done a great job in welcoming new players and having a nice community as well as eliminating elitism. They could definitely help.

A very nice addition they have is help sections in the forum for different languages. And it works VERY well. I've seen spanish, japanese, and other languages spoken on this site and it would be great to have people who can speak those languages help out.

Re: Possible FFR Rebirth Project?

ways to improve FFR:

- get users off of the complacency pedestal that they're sitting on
- get users to be less rude and more welcoming as a whole to everyone, rather than treating certain people like shit - I mean, look at yaboy; he gets targeted left and right for being a douchebag and acts like one because he knows that no one will ever take him seriously. i've never had issues with him on DF; he's a cool person, but that's just me
- host more events that involve the community outside of the forums; advertise tournaments with larger prize pools on the front page to get more and more people involved - this will cause newer users to trickle into the forums and more involved with the community just so as long as people are willing to be nice to newer communities
- break elitism in a lot of different things, such as segregation of skill levels (which was a good idea in theory, but worked out horribly with people trying to steal the spotlight at the top of the chain), simfiling, etc.
- enforce rules as they're written, and follow through with them for everyone, regardless of who they are. There's a lot of people who think they can get away with acting like pricks to anyone/everyone and that will detract users from joining

oh wait, why the **** am I spending time typing this message? the same people who i'm targeting as assholes/pricks/morons/idiots are going to be the ones who follow this message with their typical sarcastic shit

i'm sorry, but I think that FFR's community is poisoning itself and it will never recover with certain people being in it, and I know that certain staff members feel the same way, so if you feel like calling me out on it, that's perfectly fine

Re: Possible FFR Rebirth Project?

Welp, I chose the worst time for me to post this, because I need to get up early tomorrow, and then I'll be at a party all day. Feel free to update what you like, or let me deals with it. I can't wait to here what you guys come up with.

And yea AJ, it is really depressing that you're leaving. I'm joining that tourney solely because you guys are leaving. I told myself I was gonna lay off tourneys for a while, but now I just can't ;_;

Sig-worthy, TC. Very sig worthy.

it's not a special event, i'm one of the many users that come to FFR - me leaving isn't going to do anything but slow down posts in the forums slightly

but yeah, i'm narcissistic enough to say that i'm leaving the forums after DF's 6th custom tournament, so it's out in the open

Okay, anyways, back to topic. You guys can move your conversation to PMs or a different thread.

Re: Possible FFR Rebirth Project?

I thought the new engine was a rebirth project of some sort? It would be weird to make an advertisement using our current engine, then one month later have the new engine come out.
