Title: Forum maintenance
Post by: The Borg on October 02, 2022, 09:46:52 PM
If the forum looks a little different don't panic. I've run a few maintenance bits in attempt to speed it up. Had some serious lag and a few errors on here. Hopefully that'll help anyway.

Unfortunately it did clear some old topics what weren't posted in and we've lost some of the old defunct games which hadn't had a post in 10 years! If only it'd stop the bots currently 854 requests sitting there.

I and the other admins have the option to change the sections if we wanted to clear it up abit to make it abit more user friendly ie. We could have a leagues section where all the conference threads could go 111 211 etc. Or the FL section specifically for that comp or a major cup section etc. Let me know if you have any ideas or what you think etc?

I think the admin team all need a massive thanks for the work you all do.
Without you lot this game wouldn’t be half as good as it is.
Maybe you should all be handed the game and have total control with maximum profit going forward.
I don’t have an ideas to be honest but I can imagine there is so much old stuff that’s not needed on here anymore that needs clearing.
Great work guys!

Forum interest seems to be dwindling to be honest, but good on you Borg for taking a proactive approach unlike Junior.

Is there much point of keeping the general section at the bottom? Just seems like it's full of threads with the user Harv talking to himself.

I'd have to echo what Swifty said - You guys do a great job keeping the forum and the game running
Thank to you all

Going to do one for majors and private league competitions too. Apart from the FL as that's Brian's baby. That could have a separate one of its own. Just an idea. It may help promote and boost the competition.

Great stuff Borg.

Perhaps we can do one for the hall of fame (FL, COC, TCL, Official cups etc) and Deca could even put his end of season rankings there.

We could. Like Deca's rankings and Roll of honours information together. And something hall of fame wise.

Also if Brian wants an area for the FL's. Make it stand out on its own.

With what you done with the Server Cup by messaging everyone in the top leagues, the cup was filled so much quicker.

Maybe something similar with a message reminding everyone that the forums are still here and for some of the newer/returning managers to join up

Think that's a good idea

Hi Borg,

If you could collate and put all the previous SL Ranking season posts in one place that would be great and easy for me to find them all at the end of each season

  Yes please, it would be good for the Friendly League to have a place of its own.

Some good ideas. So I have set a separate area for all the Official rankings and Roll of honours. Abit of a history area. I'll move the rest over later. A hall of fame would be great. How would we induct managers. Maybe through a voting system?? Like 1 team a season or something

I'll also create an area for the friendly league. Try and make that the stand out competition.

At the weekend I will do some messaging about the forum as suggested above. See if we can get anyone on board.

Think it’s a fantastic idea for manager of the season. Where everyone can vote for who they think has had the best season, or most improved etc whatever everyone choices are for voting that person.

Thanks Borg,

Excellent to have a separate area for the official rankings,

Keep up the great work

Manager of the season would be a good idea, but how many people would actually vote? Half the time we struggle to get active managers to enter the PL competitions. The winner would just be picked from Deca's stats (rightly so?). Most managers wouldnt be arsed in looking at who's the most improved.

I had a great season last season - won 2x 32 team cups. Would anybody realise I achieved that unless I said? That's just an example by the way....

Has there been any posts In the Conference threads since they've been moved? Forum interest is dwindling, not a lot really seems to be happening on here these days.

The last time the game froze I put a message on the main chat asking if the game had frozen for anyone else. Didn't even get a reply. Seems that most managers don't have the time for much interaction, just a quick tactics set up and off you go.

Can only try, Gull.

I will do a big update on here tomorrow and hopefully get round to do some forum messaging.
