Actually, even further back I think. The accounts were moved over when this forum was first created so I think we have everyone going back to all except the first two forums (vnboards and myallegiance).

Sorry for the confusion I was supporting your point in part and replying to Broodwich.

Send out an e-mail blast to everyone on record. It's not going to make anyone leave, so it's not going to hurt anything.

it wouldnt hurt, but people around here seem to think One Thing (usually their idea) will fix everything and we will frolic forever in an allegiance paradise. In reality its always a bunch of little things that build up until the scale tips. That isnt to say nothing will fix it, but its going to take a lot more effort than I've seen the community as a whole willing to put forth. I'm just trying to inject some realism in here

SEO is huge, and fixing that will help.

The main problem with Alleg has always been the commander system and starting games. Unless you're a well liked comm, you'll just get stacked against if you try, which makes it so there aren't many people willing to comm, meaning it takes way too long for games to start. Even when the server has 40 people on it can take a half an hour to get a game going.

If you want to save the game, PUGs need to have the option to go commanderless and just have the $$$ in a team pool (not indivual players, as that would be obviously broken) that can be invested by anyone on the team who thinks about it. This is the only way to stop the 20+ minute waits between games. This is why I stopped playing at least, not good enough to command (and if I try I get stacked against, which I understand since I suck at commanding, but it's an important reality that effects alot of people who might comm), and neither are most other players, so everyone just sits on NOAT with games never starting.
