Marketing is a major element if we want to increase the current playerbase. Also it's the best moment to do so since right now you get to find busy and full server at almost any time.

Personally nothing makes me want to play a certain game than a well made avi. I know it eats up a lot of time, but some short, but entertaining and action-packed clips could also help big time.

What about a short video that explains the competitive side of the game? what OvD and ctf is all about?

You're right Jack this is a crucial moment to the longevity of the game. People will only get into the game if they have others to play with. Things could drop off quickly if we don't act to continually encourage new players.

We need good content like videos and advertising asap. I just can't justify paying for this myself.

I'm on board on funding/donating for this and I know others have expressed it as well.

Now which site can we use, or do it through paypal for funding?

Thanks Geokill I was surprised no one has put their hand up yet. gofundme charges 5% on every transaction alone so I would rather do paypal.

I will put a paypal address on the main topic and will donate 25% of whatever the community puts together on a monthly basis.

If you send me some cash put your FF name so I can mention you on the forum.

Hi again all.

We are already seeing a slight slow down in numbers. Please do consider my offer to promote FF with Facebook boosts.

I will be donating 20.00 this Friday. I would love to see this game get more advertising.
