ihop Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Just what it says on the tin, a little feed somewhere on the cardmaker page (ideally the top) which mentions important YCM news ("Numbers tournament has started", "Zaziuma has written a guide about OCG, check it out!", "Easter event has started", that sort of thing). It should give more attention to things that need it, as well as encouraging more guests to sign up to enter these events or even just read forum pages like cardmaking guides etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Considering how inactive the current News section, aside from event stuff and all; this can be considered (although that would mean altering the permissions so you all can post stuff). Or you can note them as statuses, though they will fall down a bit as the day goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihop Posted April 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 It needn't be necessary for all of us to post stuff - just have people who want something put in news PM a mod. The main idea of this is just to bring News to people who don't look at the forums, because realistically the majority of people with forum accounts will notice most of the things in news by just looking at the forums they're interested in.

Maeriberii Haan Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Noting news in Status is a bad idea. Â There's several cases of doing that only leading to more misunderstanding and mess since not all people get the memo. Â Hm, what about a running text-like deal? Is it possible to implement?

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 You can probably PM one of us, and we'll announce the thing for you. Â Otherwise, throw out any ideas that you might have; and we'll see if it's something that can be implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Hm, what about a running text-like deal? Is it possible to implement? Something like this would be cool. Along with reasons stated above, it'll get attention even if the user isn't necessarily interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
- Minimania - Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 How about a newsletter?EDIT: And with that, we could have different sections, a top 10 custom cards section, and whatnot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 How about a newsletter? EDIT: And with that, we could have different sections, a top 10 custom cards section, and whatnot We've done that a couple times in the past. It's always been interesting for a few issues, but the writers/contributors eventually either lose interest or have time conflicts, so these never last too long.

ihop Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Whilst a YCM Newsletter sounds really cool it's not really what I'm getting at - the idea is to have headlines actually on the card maker's page so people who wouldn't normally use the forums see it and get interested.
