Keeping the forum alive

[Dojan5]

Hello.
I, as I believe some of you also, have noticed that this forum is loosing activity.
Sure we have got lots of posts and all, but people do not post as often.
I know that it is summer time now, and that people are going for vacation and all, seeing how both Cats and Hiko have left us temporarily.
Apart from that, we still do not have a huge activity.
This is both good and bad, however, if this keeps on the forum will eventually die out, sadly enough.
Do any of you have any suggestions at all about any events or something so we can raise the activity a notch?
Thanks

hm... maybe if we were to advertise more... maybe if on all the other forums that our members are on make a small user bar and put it on their siggy?

[Hiko]

more software that is enjoyable :\
obmiously.
movie editing software, like, i put in something from my camera and it instantly goes to frames (unlike other wierd stuff)

umm.. Virus destroyaaaa!

A custom game (no 001 crap)

[Dojan5]

Wha?
Software for the forum?
I have been working on setting up a IRC channel...
No success so far though.

[Hiko]

software will bring popularity to runecats which bring popularity to forums.
persay in one of the runecats software we make a tiny bug, they come to forum to ask for help, then they stick around, simplicity at it's top effectiveness

[Dojan5]

Cool!
I'll ask Cats to implement a bug in RuneCats Explorer.

[Hiko]

that's diff. the explorer is old, not new, and it's just an explorer, i mean like..a game making software or something more of the popular sorts

[Dojan5]

I could hack Game Maker, although that is illegal...
===EDIT===
I have an idea though.
Remember those freaky fridays or something as we had on Engine001 forums?
We could do something similar... Theme days or something, not something thats only open one hour...

[Hiko]

freaky fridays?
and no..no games using an engine :/

[Dojan5]

I thought you meant that we could RELEASE a game engine...
Java preferred according to me, that would support a large usergroup (Linux, Macintosh and Windows)...
Yeah, I think it was called Happy hour...

[Hiko]

no idea what Happy hour is, and yes, a game engine, better than 001, but just as easy..platformer too cause i love platformers xD

[Dojan5]

Hmm...

[Lonewolf]

that sounds like a cool idea

[Hiko]

If you guys want we could group chat later about this idea...elsewhere...

Yeh suuuuuuure.

[Hiko]

wait no, we couldn't make it anyways, i'm not paying some random guy to help us make that.

[Dojan5]

Aww...

[Hiko]

unless we force one!!!

[Dojan5]

unless we force one!!!

You are confusing me BIG time...

[Hiko]

we needs a programmer to make RuneCats a platforming game maker.
an easy one basically 001 layout, but diff features seeing how it's platformer.
