suggestion Change Preview Server + Private Server Sections

[L2Review]

Change name " [Previews] L2 Private Servers " to "COMING SOON SERVERS"

Change name " Private Servers " to "LIVE SERVERS"

 

 In "COMING SOON SERVERS" section, require a "Grand Opening Date"(add calendar option?). If no "Grand Opening Date" = server will fail to post.

AUTO-MOVE server from "COMING SOON SERVERS" to "LIVE SERVERS" after "Grand Opening Date" comes.

 

In "LIVE SERVERS" section, make topic(server) AUTO-DELETE at 30 days. This will allow server owners to create a new topic(with current date) and give new info if their server is still online. With this process, the servers posted in "LIVE SERVERS" are actually online.

Right now, 99% of servers in "Private Servers" section are offline.

why to delete live servers after e0 days?

 

The purpose for these sections are:

preview and review. people can comment about these servers and discuss. 

if a server is closed it should be locked not deleted for future reference.

Server listed from 2 years ago may have had so many changes that none of the comments are valid. Server might have new owners, different concept, and updates. So old comments are useless.

Also, these sections are for server owners to list their servers and members to go play. What is point if so many are offline?

Negative comments are not allowed anyway, right?

Lastly, I think you should have to be a Premium member to list your server or for any member make a comment in these sections.

That's false, while it may be true that some old comments are useless, there are also old comments that are really useful, whether they're related to said server or not. Also, saying that 'if a topic is old it should be deleted' is stupid af, since that's the reason why the 'bump' button exists. And i doubt you'd be retarded enough to be looking for servers that opened 5 years ago and haven't been bumped ever since.

Negative comments are allowed, as long as it's not just trashtalking bullshit but a constructive comment.

but the offline servers going down due to inactivity anyway so whats the point? imho mxc users used to this for over a decade so np

[L2Review]

My intention is to offer suggestions to make Maxcheaters server advertisement compete with topzone/hopzone/l2network/l2oops..etc...and to bring server owners/players that go to those other websites to come here.

That is why is I have these recommendations:

- Change the [Previews] L2 Private Servers to "COMING SOON SERVERS"

- Change Private Servers to "LIVE SERVERS"

- Move Lineage II Private Servers section to top of main page

- Delete offline servers from Private Servers . Only have fresh online servers listed.

 You want to keep old offline servers because of comments? Most say "Good Luck"

 Keeping these old, offline servers make Maxcheaters look old and un-managed.

- If server owners want to add server then they must be a premium member or list Maxcheaters link on their website + discord. This is required to list a server on other websites.

 

i went to Facebook groups, and there are at least 10 servers opening next week not listed on the other server websites that could be listed here if the server owners knew about Maxcheaters. They are mostly Brazillian server owners, but all can be messaged directly with Maxcheaters link very easily. Same with VK and attracting Russian server owners.

Make an agreement with Russian server websites to advertise there website on MXC for free if they allow Maxcheaters to advertise on their website for free. Maxcheaters has more to gain with this proposal.

This is all an effort to bring new members/players here which will be beneficial to entire community. New server owners/players will now see they have a place to find the newest servers, get info/buy developer services  to start/fix their own server, new place for server owners to advertise, new players to become members or find cheats..so much more than topzone/hopzone/l2oops and the rest have to offer.

I posted this in the "SUGGESTION" section because that is all this is.

No need to get angry or emotional.

Maybe use some of these ideas. Or throw throw them all in the garbage.

It's all good. These are just suggestions.

You know that Invision Community has limited features when it comes to automated moderation?

With all the God-like devs here, this should be possible

I don't know what e0 days is..but if server ads are deleted after 30 days, then server owners will need to make new topic = server still online+active..not offline+dead.

The purpose of these sections should be to attract players. 90% of comments about servers is "Good Luck with your project" from admins/mods of MXC. Nothing players give a shit about or discuss.

No player gives a shit about comments on a closed server or a server older than 30 days. Keeping these old, offline servers makes MXC look like a 3rd world country.. like topg.org or itopz.com = Empty of interest.

Active, online servers will attract players. More players = more advertisement paid by server owners. Make server owners that list their servers add MXC link to their website. Advertise MXC as place to find active servers, server help, cheats...on facebook, discord..etc... it is so cheap to promote and I see nothing..

The focus should be attracting players. They will bring revenue to MXC and its members.

Also, this can be a start for a vote site or server MXC has discussed in the past.

You want to grow MXC then take action to attract players. You want MXC to die..do nothing.

Let's look at these stupid af comments:

1. "Thats false..while it may be true" .. stupid af comment. Nothing false can be true.

 

2. "there are also old comments that are really useful, whether they're related to said server or not" .. stupid af comment. If comment is not related to server it is useless and should be deleted.

 

3. "Also, saying that 'if a topic is old it should be deleted' is stupid af", Where I ever say this? complete lie + stupid af comment.

 

4."Bump" button bumps topic with original date.. outdated servers  = MXC look outdated

 

5. Since negative comments are allowed: Stop making ignorant responses.

Constructive : Make intelligent responses.

 

I hope you appreciate how nice I am being to you. I won't be again kiddo.

Aww, what a butthurt little bitch, cmon! ain't my fault that you take everything literally. The point is:

1- There are both useless and useful comments on many old topics

2- Comments can be useful whether they're related to the server or not, there is literally no reason to delete them

3- You indeed say that if a topic is old it should be deleted.

4- Bump button literally puts your server in the first place of private servers list. It's up to you whether you wanna keep the post updated or not. If you bump your server even if it's old it means that it is either online or gonna re-open soon, so 'offline servers' will always be on the bottom of the list, at which point noone is gonna see them, so, again, no point on deleting old posts.

 

 

5- Go touch grass

Pointless change for the Previews/Live Servers.

Everything will stay the same.
