BrainDeadGenius Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Honestly, what's the point of having a contest board if you rarely do contests? You should do more contests to make the users feel like you want them to be a part of the forum and the group that is OSBot. Not for them to just be using the service provided by it. Since, most of them are leechers anyway. (Go ahead and make your joke about me being a leecher, but I haven't even used the bot in well over a month). Contests are always good for a community, in short. * Possibly even allow user contests. Edited August 25, 2013 by BrainDeadGenius
Gildarts Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I support this. The development team is currently going through a bit of inactivity, so I'd assume that's the reason for the lack of contests. Although contests aren't needed to make people feel like a part of this Forum.
BrainDeadGenius Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 What I meant by that, Sherlock, was that if you incorporate the users into things such as contests, it makes you look good for one. It shows the people that you're willing to give away / whatever ............ I'm having troubles thinking of how to word it how I want. Lol. But anyway, in short, contests are good for the community.
Rick Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 contests were never really THAT active. i dont think they will be anyway.. most people just stick their head in the market. i also think the graphic's section is really underused too.
BrainDeadGenius Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 This is true. However, what I'm saying is that they should be more active. Whether or not that means that contests can be held by individuals other than admins, well, that would be up to the admins to decide.
Anne Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 We are trying to bring up more contests like SOTW, but we have lack of participants. If you have any other ideas for a contest (not a simple "comment on here to win" one) : tell us ;)
lolmanden Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 More contests that doea not need skills though ^.
Administrator Maldesto Posted August 31, 2013 Administrator Posted August 31, 2013 I Agree, SOTW was a big fail and was annoying. I agree we need more contests, different sorts, any suggestions will help the staff decide.
