Re: Starmourn: Year 2 Incoming!
Resolutions!
[ ] Learn to use the force so I can impress @Rhindara
[ ] Hunt more talents than @Azlyn
[ ] Reach level 75 so I can actually do that
[ ] Reach top 10 in the kill rankings (AKA learn PvP)
[ ] Keep hunting with @Mairon (The dude is so chill it's practically like meditating)
[ ] Help @Vega more so she isn't so swamped
[ ] Do politics
In essence, I have played Starmourns for about two months between two characters, and have only experimented with one aspect of the game - hunting. As I close in on 75 over the next couple of days here, I am really really looking forward to exploring the other systems Starmourn has to offer, provided by our lovely producers and coding staff. Also shout out to @Xiru for bringing me back from the dead.
Happy new year!

Re: Starmourn: Year 2 Incoming!
I plan to work a lot more on Soza's PVRP, I feel like RP is the biggest field i'm lacking and I swear i'm not as mean as I seem to be, shoot me messages and talk to me, everyone is invited.

Re: I'm done
Cubey said:You said I bring up legit points but then blame others instead. I don't recall the last time I blamed others for CA being inactive or PvP being challenging (or rather, my lack of achievement in the PvP area) - but I don't have any suggestions or ideas here either. Allow me to turn the tables: what would you suggest? What do you think would make CA less inactive? If you have to take something of value from this thread, may it be at least t
Sorry for the weird formatting in this post. Forums are being very odd for me right now.
The first thing you do is stop going on the forums to bitch. That's just basic image/PR. I've had CA players flat-out tell me they're not sure they want to stay in CA because of your forum posts, and I've had newbies tell me they're not sure if CA was the right choice because "Cubey says it's bad."

Next step is to increase interest in CA. This can be best done by leveraging what you have. CA may not have many players, but the players that are there are very good at what they do. Leverage Ata's Project Kithflower. Leverage Clover's GCEPS. Or come up with your own thing, like Nykara did with Sorrow. Start making posts about it. Maybe throw in some related junk items via Mildly Interesting Things. Ask the Admin for help. I wrote a guide on how to do that. Unfortunately for you, the admin is probably already not thrilled with you because you spent the majority of the last CA-centric event flaming it, so you're on bad footing to start. Our admin team is very forgiving though. If you come to them with a cool idea and a polite attitude, they will probably be happy to assist.
Alternatively, go full-player on it like Song on the Verge did or like Orrin did for his Winterflame festival. The goal of all this is to make CA look interesting to players. Interesting engagement = Player attraction and retention. This will be a slow burn at first, and may feel frustrating at times with the lack of instant gratification. But it will pay off.
From there, you'll start attracting alts and the occasional org-switcher. Be prepared to receive them. Have a city advancement program in place that focuses heavily on CA's RP flavor. Maybe incentivize coming up with cool CA corporations with both city rank increase and with monetary rewards, particularly if those corporations are adding to the environment. Reward that which adds, always.
The steam of players, alts, and newbies will eventually translate to PVPers. Be prepared to receive this with a rewards program that supports PVPers too.
This is all work. It's rewarding work, and you're adding to the culture of a wonderful game, but it's going to be hard.
But hey, you asked. If you have any other questions, ask. But I'm not going to do the work for you.
Player RP event: Winterflame Music Festival!
Hi Everyone!
In case anyone missed it (not that I haven't been kinda incessant about it on the public news section), there's a music festival in the Winterflame Festivities area this coming Sunday (or Monday morning for those of you Australia/Asia way).
It's on:
Sunday 22nd Dec at 10pm GMT/4pm CST/8am Mon AEST
We have:
- A great selection of player bands playing (Me obvs, but thanks Keiko, Grek, Ata and Otto in advance for taking part!)
- The most popular NPC band in the game playing (Talking Tukkav - as Tosmar is the Tukkav homeworld this is pretty awesome!)
- I've organised some goodie bags with exclusive merch for everyone who attends.
- There will be a prize draw at the end of the festival for those who stayed for the whole thing. (Prizes include: 50k, promo items and giftcatchers)
Thanks to Ren, Keiko, Clover, Kass, Reeloc, and Xiru for being involved from a sponsorship point of view.
NOW WE JUST NEED A CROWD!
Please take a look at NEWS READ PUBLIC 252 for the full ad.
This is so much fun. Thanks admin for being awesome and supporting this with such enthusiasm!
Right... I'd better actually get my song ready now hah!
