Populate Fortress Forever!

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/PopulateFF

Please Join the Steam Group!!!

I remember reading a while back on these forums, where someone posted what time would be the best to play. Heres my idea.

This steam group will be used to post announcements of when to populate Fortress Forever servers, as the name says. I will promote more people to admin if alot of people join, so they can post group messages as well.

The idea behind this is that if Fortress Forever is going very slowly, and no one is joining a server because they are all empty, a group announcement can be posted which will state that people should play FF, hopefully causing people to join in and populate the servers.

Please, join the group if you want to support this and invite all your friends who play Fortress Forever. With this, we can hopefully bring some life into this game and get some full public games going .

Join the official FF group. I have taken over marketing; we'll see an influx in traffic over the next little while.

Have faith.

i have 'faith', but uhh why didnt you just use the official ff group thats already in place, that has users in it? hundreds of them. All you have to do is post an announcement in it to reach quite a few people.

So far from what I've gathered from all this... It's a big "ad" campaign so people will join their new server.

We have 8 in our server, and oaties is attempting to our people to his.


So don't say you're going to help the community - you've already blocked out OT, and suggest only one server to play on.


I'm going to launch a campaign to play Ricochet, and Death Match Classic. BBL

honeslty the facebook, twitter, youtube and steam links in ALL the devs sigs is just getting spammy. When you spam advertising it does the complete opposite effect and draws people away. No one ever pays attention to those pop up ads, why, because theyre more annoying than anything.
If your gonna have those sig links, use them on a different forum, they would do better there

its even in my sig and i didnt put it there... wtf is this?

The sigs were updated for those who are on the FF team / beta testers.

An email was sent out. This is to boost awareness of our Social Media pages - and it's worked!

We'll be working on making some less intrusive (smaller) images tonight.

Please do feel free to remove the social media icons from your signature.

Regards,

Absolute

spreading the word will do great things for this mod, but things like these will have the opposite effect. advertise how youd like to be advertised to in a sense. Stick out but dont do it in such a way that FORCES people to notice you, do it in a way that people notice you out of interest. You will find more users that way that stick around.
