    Is it up to Planet Partners on a individual basis to do the advertizing of Entropia Universe?

    If this is the case, will we see a TV-Ad Campaign in the foreseeable future?

    I agree, but I sure do hope that there is a big television campaign when things are in place.

    Epic I think would be a massive understatement. We can only but hope that these two talents work together on some project at some point in the future.

    MA should "tax" the planet partners and have the money go to a mandatory advertising fund. So far, I have not seen any of the planet partners do any advertising whatsoever.

    takes dedication of sorts and hard work. put Bam and Cyrus together and intoxicate em, the rest will happen by itself. Then the top CEO, tie wearin clan types, do the make contact with TV stations ad companies world wide, get quotes, pay and all that. make a few and give the ad-companies the choice which to run.

    I firmly believe those two can pull of something classy and top notch.

    I always figured it would be a lot cheaper to offer ppl some ingame swag for posting flyers on college campuses and sending in pics. One college student putting up posters and spamming their facebook friends could get a lot of new players in game. Use flyers as seeds in an area and let social media do the rest. We used to get a few hundred or more people to concerts on campus using flyers.

    A few hundred is not what Entropia needs.... more like a tens of thousands.

    I agree. Give players some kind of ingame incentive to refer new players. There's no salesman like the one who loves and uses the product.

    The mentoring system did give some insentive to recruit friends and other ppl and then mentor them. One thing I have been strugling with (from when sweat droped below 1pec per bottle) is actualy getting my friends willing to play because I can not lie to them about sweating being not worth the bandwith. Then came the VU10 update and now fruit is useless aswell making it even harder for them to actualy want to play the game if their not willing to depo.

    One good thing im seeing is that Sweat is now finaly starting to get more uses and will likely start gaining value in the next few updates if MA continues to add in sweat to BP's so I may start recruiting friends again.

    Seems to me I overheard an MA rep at speaking at Calypso's Twin Peaks a few weeks back and he mentioned that the current top priority for re-introducing old systems is the new mentoring system.

    I agree - this system would greatly increase the growth rate on all planets.

    Adding sweat to more BP's - I like it!:D

    First we need an epic viable script specially adapted to the game with a good storyline. Then we get Bambuco and Cyrus to Direct the Movie.

    LOL...I think u missed my point. That was one campus and a few ppl posting flyers for a show on Friday, Sat night. We'd get new 25 ppl for gaming night...it was DragonQuest back in those days. Fat rule book, dice, games master and beer.

    Within 5 miles of my house there are 2 campuses...one with 40k students, one with another 10k. Flyers are cheap and students are on campus. MA/Ark could create or a approve a flyer design. If you wish to go put out flyers, you could be issued a promo code you could write on the flyers. After new players reach X skills, X months in game or X depos, the person with the registered code could get a prize. That would give an incentive for ppl to post flyers....all at a very minimal price for MA/Ark.

    We posted a few dozen or so flyers on campus and got a few hundred ppl to show up...before Facebook, cell phones, the Internet or email. If MA/Ark decided on a similar promo for all 6 continents, who knows how many ppl they could get in game....at little cost to themselves. How much do u think an international TV campaign would cost? Heck, I don't know if MA even advertises with banner ads on gaming sites.

    You just need a few "seeds" on each campus, say 10 - 20 ppl who are interested and they will spam their social network. It should have some good bang for the buck.
