What? You found this place because rmxp.org shut down? That's obviously a bad thing.

 

Well I'm glad you guys stayed here at least. I'm pretty sure RPGRevolution is the biggest rpg maker forum going around, rpgmakervx.net really close behind.

 

The more resources you guys get, the more users you will get. Now is the perfect time to just start ramping up the amount of scripts and things you get on here, because then all of the influx of new people (such as myself) will have more reasons to stay.

Our scripts archive has been really popular since I made it(well, its made from a CCK). It actually gets more views than rmxpunlimited.net/, which is weird because that's the first level of the site. The question is though, will that make us more of a leech site? We have over 6,000 members, that figure is catching scarely on our post count. Those are the stats of a warez forum. Some rpg maker forums that I've seen have had 300 members and 20,000 posts.

 

I'm pretty sure that's what Marked is saying. He wants us to be that big. biggrin.gif Correct me if I'm wrong Marked.

Hmm, well I want what comes with being big. With a big forum there's a lot more moderation to do, and more conflicts. I mean, we've never been hacked :)

Mainly I don't want the forum to be looked over, by developers and members like rgangsta who would never come here if a larger forum wasnt down. Perhaps though, we should develop our own pool of members. "It's username, from rmxp unlimited".

Yes, leetching will happen, which is bad for bandwidth and whatnot. But you are the admin, think up some way to stop that from happening.

 

I think, moreover, what this site gives the best at is help with RPGXP. Maybe that should be the focus. But a very good script database is probably essential to getting people. Preferably those people who code the scripts is who you want here. We want people to use this site as the help forum and go-to forum for scripts and resources for what they create. If you want to be big, that is.

 

But the focused help is always good. I guess i'm down for whatever now, I really like this forum.

I wouldn't mind more moderation for me to do :D.

 

The problem is, do we have anyone here that can go to other forums and be like I'm from here and it's a good place. The only one member that really comes to my mind with that kind of power is Leon for his scripts.

I like that one. It isn't half bad. However, i hate to nitpick, but could you make one iwth donald and goofy as well? Goofy is my fav, man. Kicksass

 

No problem, sorry for the late reply. Was hanging out with a friend for a few days and it turns out he didnt have internet, but ill make some with donald and goofy.

 

Forum has alot of posts since I last checked but while I dont specifically remember how I came across this site I'm particularly glad I did. I know i did visit the other sites but...I dunno. They seemed like snobbish jerks and i personally tend to gravitate towards smaller, more close knit and friendly communities. I wouldnt mind if Unlimited became big but everything should stay the same. I'd hate to become like all the others

I envy this friend you speak of Sol. A life without internet. That would be great. Maybe then I'd avtually have some kind of life instead of being sucked into this monitor screen everyday.

Maybe we should put a post count limit on resources? Sounds sucky, but it could be an idea say if bandwidth becomes and issue.

Wouldn't that lead to millions of posts that dont mean anything just to get to the resources? While that is a good idea I just think it will lead to alot of "spam posts/topics" per se

I know I thought of that too, that's why we make it a significant amount. That way it can give mods/admins to notice that this person is spamming and they can be banned or have post count reset or some shit.

haha...

No, I did before. Didn't you check?

This would certainly make members post. But if they just post to get access to resources, they are undoubtedly going to be spam, necro-posts or as I've we've seen before anything to increase the post count. One guy make a topic, posted the same thing in it ten times: "can I have access to the downloads manager" or something like that.

 

Bandwidth is not an issue. I don't actually know what rmxp unlimited consumes a month. I know the host we're on nearly has an amount we'd have trouble ever reaching.

 

What is an issue is registrations. In july last month, we averaged 17 registrations a day. How many of those 17 members registered each day actually posted on the forum? I would like to stop the registrations. Post count and member count are completely not goals anymore. I don't care what they are, except for there to be activity. (when I say I dont care about post count, I dont just want a big number, just people posting because they want to).

 

The only restriction is the downloads manager. I'd like to allow guests to download for 3 days or something and compare registrations.

I noticed that too >_>

 

@Crimson: If you want I could try to make you one :D before Leon asked I hadn't taken requests in a while but seems like it came out ok. (I still think it could be better) Just tell me what you want in it.....well I have to finish make the other ones that Leon wanted first

 

@Marked: Ill try my best not to leave the site, I doubt it would be easy to leave anyways. (Checks the site every morning, feels like hes stalking the site sometimes >_<) Oh, I can post them in the gallery? Cool beans, I'll post ones I make that don't have any text that way anyone can use them.

 

 

Sorry I haven't got on, lots of duty at my house and than a storm came and my parents wouldn't allow the PC to be on whilst the storm happened.

 

@Solshadow:

Thanks, Sol (If I may call you that?)! Hm, could it be of Roxas or maybe the dude in red (KH2, in the beginning of the game. Guy in all red cloths) or....Hades? I love Hades, unless bad guys aren't allow :unsure: :(

 

@Marked:

I too, will try my best not to leave. And if there are trips coming up (traveling around to sell my novel) I'll defiantly say so and will still try to get on through labtops or something to that matter.

 

I could manage a life without internet, unless there wasn't PCs. I need them for writing, cause I wrote my book on paper and well, let's say it managed to get a bath and met away T.T

 

Like all the others forums? I highly doubt that; this site is awesome and has way more nicer people on it.

Rmk.net is a horrible site with nasty people on it, okay, there are a few people there I met that are sweet. But they turn quickly and start to foam at the mouth if you say something the "masters" don't like.

I certainly hope we don't become like the others, sure I hope the best for this forum by getting hits and such, but not to be the same as the others. The people here are the nicest I've met over the Internet.

 

Sorry for the late reply >.<
