If anyone sees any issues with the Siggy Editor, let me know.

What if instead of having it take them directly to the main page, it took them to a redirection page. Something like, "Thank you for showing interest in FlashFlashRevolution.com we hope you enjoy your visit." then put like a 5 second delay on it, and have it auto direct them to the main page. That way they will feel as though they are getting direct attension.

*Edit: Kind of like when you sign into FFR, how it directs you to the forums. Just another suggestion.

It's not that bad of an idea if done right Uber. In my opinion anyway.

Cheers,

We could look into that. I can envision sort of an intro page of sorts.

However, I think getting people into the community means getting them into the game(s) first. People often time have a very short attention span, and reading is the LAST thing they want to do. "Just play damnit!!".

Re: Come Play With Us (earn a free tshirt)
 
When people feel like they are getting individual attension, it makes them feel more welcome. (At least for me it does.) I don't really see how it would slow anything down, or turn people away for that matter.

*Edit: True, people probably would rather play the game first, but feeling welcome in a community is also always a good thing.

*Edit Two: By the way, this is really hard to do without a mouse. Stupid mouse breaking down on me. T_T

Will look into this, and as to the mouse, considered cleaning it? ;)

Hmm.. maybe (since the load for FFR is doubled, it'll give them enough time to read for the short amount of waiting) you can have something being said while or above the loading screen of FFR. Like those on page popups that aren't actually popups.

That isn't the problem, something is bugged with the wire or something, I don't know the exact problem, but I can't move it from it's default position. I've tried everything I've been suggested, but nothing is working. I guess it's just time for a new mouse. >.<

Re: Come Play With Us (earn a free tshirt)
 
Yeah, new mice aren't that expensive anyway.

JasonKey 03-1-2007 11:37 AM

Re: Come Play With Us (earn a free tshirt)
 
Thank god for that, I am brutal on mice.

Hate to bump, but is anyone using the siggy for this, I am curious if its working ok for folks.

Re: Come Play With Us (earn a free tshirt)
 
Any suggestions about it that would help ya?

DrugstoreCowboy 03-1-2007 12:00 PM

Re: Come Play With Us (earn a free tshirt)
 
hmm. honestly, not really.

its just really nice to put in my sigs on other forums, and when people click it, it takes them right to the game. And thats what they want.

But i will just share one thing real quick.
I didnt have time to make any graphics yet, but i do post this pretty much everywhere..



and have that link to my referral link.

Added to profiles. Will add rank shortly.

Re: Come Play With Us (earn a free tshirt)
 
I think there is a problem with the siggy editor. When you first go to it, you have under "Come Play With Me" Forum BBCode Sig:

[url="http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/comeplay/withus.php?u=emerald000"][img]http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/profile/ffrsiggy/emerald000/0111.png[/img][/url]

If you decide to change something in your sig, when you generate it, it becomes something like:

[url="http://www.flashflashrevolution.com"][img]http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/profile/ffrsiggy/emerald000/0714.png[/img][/url]

The last link is the same than the not-"Come Play With Me" Forum BBCode Sig, which link directly to the main page and thus not adding to your ip counts.
