New Website = New Forum?

Postby Jake » Wed Dec 28, 2011 7:09 pm

This question is something I have been wondering and it is an excuse to get some action on the forum. Speaking of that, where is everyone?

But for Vultren which is who I am sure will be answering this since you're making the website. Will there be a new forum? Or will it be cleared? Or what?

I've been wondering the same thing, not really too much activity over the last two days or so. Hopefully it gains more activity though. I feel as if he could leave the forum, just archive and hide some of the stuff if needed.

I'm working on the new site right now. I have it on the server because I am testing it, but am only half way done with the home page. There's a ton of CSS3 and HTML5 in this site, hopefully people will really like the new features and explore the forums.

We basically don't have activity in the forum because we're only getting ~20-40 hits a day on the website... I have no advertisements or people helping advertise so it's difficult to get activity. Not only that, but we don't even have a game yet, just images of one. Once we have something playable, the focus will no longer be on technical (which Sparkart and I have been focusing on since August) and will be more on promotion.

I won't be changing the forum's database, but sometime later this week I will have to code this again. It might be acting weird for a day to two sometime next week. Bare with me please!

If the forum has to be shut down for those two days. Do it.

Ok, another update. The website home page is done. I need to make the other pages still, this won't take as long.

I also have made some banner advertisements with Google Adwords, you might see them popping up soon. :D
Ah the hints that we are soon to launch excite me :lol:

If this thing gets really big and you need forum help, I'd hope to say we'd all be pretty good candidates if you needed some. ;)

My website isn't too popular but if there's any banners that I could use, then I'll add that to my website.

That would be excellent! Kingdom Island's 2.0 website will have a whole page dedicated for advertisements. If you don't find a banner or ad that fits your dimensions, let me know and I'll make a custom one for you.
