Since this site doesn't have much for tournaments or anything like that, or a chat to talk to people or anything for help with learning the game, I thought I'd advertise this site here (http://cfvacademy.forumotion.com/).
They have weekly tournaments, member's can make their own, has a local chat, discussions on new cards, tips, pretty much what a forum should be. So far there is only around 10 activate people and 20-30 people who rarely come on. Looking to increase activity.
-
But, guess what I just suggested on here?
A community forum? Yes, a community forum!
To be honest, we could have weekly tournaments if people would be willing to host them, and anyone here can make a tournament. It also wouldn't be too hard to set up a chat for this site, either.
Also advertising is generally against forum rules and it generally peeves me too.

I know, but this site seems plain, dead, boring. We need a better way of communication. So far we have an average of 4-5 members online on this site.
I dislike the organization of this forum, just giving people a better one.
-
Plain, dead, boring. Bear in mind it's only been around for a month, and I know that it has promise. If you don't like it, don't use it.

That's why this place is dead. No one likes it.
Go to any other forum for any game and it'll be 10x better at the least.
Is it that bad that I want people to have a better forum? I did this for the community.
-
No, doing this hurts the budding community here, and merely drags part of it to your special place. Do you hear me? This forum has been around for a month. It's the official Area forum, and you'll just have to deal with it. I find that forum visually unappealing anyway. It's messier than this one, the banner's mediocre, and the colour scheme is too dark, to name a few of my minor gripes.
-
Oh, and if you're doing it for that "VP" or whatever, then that just makes you even worse in my books ;o good luck getting respect from admins and that jiggy.
-
I'm doing it to increase the community.
I could care less for VP because it's useless.
Also, I honestly don't care for the respect of admins.

1. This site is a paid site with server, domain (though Simple Machine template is indeed free).
2. This is CFA's official site.
From these facts, it would be better if you suggest the people in that site to move here instead.
No hard feeling and stuffs, that's my honest opinion.
And... Forumotion is really easy to edit and stuffs so sometimes people go overboard in editing their site... I did it once with my forumotion as well...

Alright, alright.
I'll try to make everyone come here I guess.
-
Thank you, that's better. Although, you should make sure that you're not "Advertising" as such, but make sure to say that this is the official forum and we want the community to grow :D

Forum looks trashy, Devour is a shitty mod who wouldn't let me say goodbye to an old team mate on his teams thread and what not, so far, so much dislike for me.
the Academies site is rather dead but looks far better, personally (apart from mist) I'd say the best way is bring over there mods, site builders and put them to work here as this site has more members, just not the people with the attitude to make tournaments and what not (bar a few).
The Academy has a far better attitude and better system, I'd rather people go there than here but I am sure there is some middle ground somewhere like this site being some meet up place and the academy turning into some competitive league with ground rules or something.
but it would be nice if someone did something with the layout of this site as it's not pretty on the eyes.

Firstly, of course i deleted your posts since they're irrelevent to the thread and were insulting (Don't forget your insults on the PM) so, that's denied.
Also, just because you're more accustomed to the site doesn't mean it's better. I've witnessed several other sites trying to rebuild what was once NEUS, but it didn't work that much. Also, as Yata already said, this is the official forum of Cardfight Area. Thusly i don't think it's smart to just go to sites recruiting people for something that hasnt been approved if there already is an official forum. In time, this forum will "evolve" as well, as you can see it started by adding tournament area and team area and just recently the Card/Deck discussion area. And once again, i suggest that you watch your language because vulgarity won't get you anywhere (as i've already said trough PM after your "assault on me"). Have a nice day.
-
saying goodbye to a former team is not irrelevant.
Just because this site is official means nothing to me, if CFVA was official it would still mean nothing.
Honestly, who needs approval anyway? it's probably only a matter of time before Area is lieing next to CFC (hopefully not) as it is an unofficial game, if you can show proof that Bushi is cool with area I'll value the validity of this site.
and still, my points stand: better attitude, system and layout at CFVA, instead of getting arsy with me about it, try and adopt what makes them better and blow them out of the water.
-
>"Better attitude on CFVA"
>"Getting arsy with [you]"
Get your priorities straight, mister.

It's okay. He thinks he knows something here and he's just trying to alter his position here. It's okay, im not mad or anything, it's mostly funny, since he thinks i abuse and am stupid and whatnot. It's just an attitude you ahve in some part of your life. It'll pass him, hopefuly.
-
Alter my position here? no, my position here doesn't mean anything to me just yet, when it starts getting a bit more active and a bit more competitive I'll join in, play nice and what not, even with Devour.
Devour, you had a problem with me the moment I joined, I wanted to create some rivalry magic and make it a bit more lively, your mod position has gotten to your head and I'm bored of you now, I raise some valid opinions and you say I am trying to insult you or believe you are stupid?
No, CFVA does/did have a better attitude, that competitive vibe, it made you want to win and strive to get better, the reason it died/is dieing is the lack of staff to organise tournaments, which is a large problem here, maybe if you appoint 3-6 tournament hosters responsible for weekly and monthly tournaments a competitive vibe will kick of here, that is a problem in the academy only 2 people where in charge of hosting and it didnt work out due to one lacked in ability and the other was away a lot.
Now to the layout, as I said, the site is not easy on the eye, it is unappealing and unattractive, I know and understand you don't see this as a problem so I'll make it easy for you: Kiera Knightly and a obese manly looking woman both approach you and offer to sleep with you, naturally you'll choose Kiera Knightly as she is more appealing and attractive, they may both be of equal skill in the bedroom, the unattractive woman may be better and have a better potential but Kiera still looks better. A nice, attractive and easy to use layout keeps people active.
I would actually like to thank you Devour, if you where not so plain, boring and generally hard on for the rules I wouldn't of got bored and put a slightly better explanation down.

That's actually not a bad idea. I'll just ignore you trying to provoke me, since, i don't fall for that. But thanks for the great idea. Even though people are welcome to host tournaments any time, they don't seem to do so.
About the competetive part of this, it exists. Not so big as it was on Cardfight Capital, but that's mainly because there's more people here and they change names on a daily basis because they do some really stupid stuff which includes cursing, cheating, etc.
On another note, i'd like it if you stopped blaming me for whatever problems you've. I didn't have a problem with you, nor do i intend to have a problem with you. It's my job to eliminate inadequate comments in sections i moderate. That's it. I value your opinion, but i don't intend to act on my own accord to do something to either support it or fight against it. And if you think being a moderator has gotten to me, well that just means you don't know me. Don't judge a book by its covers, dood. If you wanna know me, be nice to me and i'll be nice to you. Simple as that. ;)
-
As I said, it's not that I have a problem with you, I saw this forum fading on life support so I decided to put on a show, be a necessary evil, it's what I do best, I saw your team and played on words to create some sparks to ignite some team wars and what not.
And I agree with the name changes, sadly I am one of them, but lately it has been a mix of NickInHD or NextGenNick, of you see [v]____Nick, it's me. What we did on CFVA to counter that is have a forum name and host via challonge, whatever you put down as your name on challonge, when the tournament starts you use that name, so for example:
User: NextGenNick
Challonge: Nikorasu xii (caps somwhere in it)
IGN: [v]NextGenNick
granted you can change your name on Challonge but you'd write that down on the part of challonge.
The problem with anybody hosting tournaments is simple: not a lot of people can be arsed to do it, like myself right now, whereas if you appoint people to host, they host. For example if you said to me "Hey Nick, can you do me a favour and host a weekly tournament?" if I agreed I am stuck to doing that really and I'd host every week as that would be my job.
I suppose first things first: new layout, everything else is secondary until you change the layout.
-
I know how it's hosted. And i also know it's better when you have that permanent name on some sort of a secondary program. For example, on CFC it was like this:
IGN: [XF] Devour
Byond key: Darkness_Devour
Deck: Neo Nectar
Timezone: GMT +1
But well, enough about tournament hosting, that's not what this topic's about. o.o
-
the timezone and deck would make it a lot better actually, and this topic was about CFVA and promoting it's good points, why not steal our/their good points? as I said before, this site has a hell load more promise than CFVA, so technically, we're on topic, the argument side was off topic ha ha!
-
If tournaments are what you want, if dev is okay with it, I could restart my old punishment game tournaments like back on the Neus forums.
-
Is this all about tournaments?
-
You guys should host tournaments for custom mats that would be really cool

I think I actually remember you being on Cardfight Capital. Back to the topic, if the forums were advertised more within the game it would probably attract more people or annoy them. Regardless, it works better to influence someone to do something, such as on a different website.
-
It's gonna be hard to fill in the shoes CfC left behind, but I think CFA is at least a step in the right direction.

Locked, people shouldn't be posting here :x
