introduce new things like he said, keep people entertained and the rest will flow... they will have incentive to hunt and have better gear and actually play. people seem too bored and believe it or not main answer to this is staff activity with pages and help along with events, variety of events while the regulars are always there... 1vs1 2vs2, etc... having some sort of mix of events keeps players interested"hooked" and will cause new people to come from word of mouth, best advertisement.
seriously new active staff is needed, or just exsisting ones to play more on their staff than their mortals, and so on...
or just have staff requirements, you must host x amount of events in the week or what ever... they can do it on their own time, not being pressed with "gotta be on UO at 5:00 pm to host" let it be when their free..
but there needs to be standards when staff are taking positions,
must answer x pages
must host x amount
its just an idea, and im not trying to tell staff how to do their job, but tryin to give advice if you dont know how to solve whats going on... we know staff dont get paid to be there, but neither do the players...
so i mean if you cant even "play" uo, then why ask for a staff position. it's not like its crazy time consuming, count is as the time you would of spent ganking on your mortal... im saying this because people say "staff dont get paid" yes its true, but neither do us players...
so if you take the role of a staff player, live up to it because its sad to see player base drop like this within 2 weeks. the crashes are part of it and mainly lack of active staff
Thanks
PS:// on a side note, Like Kitiara said, people need help when their new... we need some sort of popup, or book, or something. to give a quick intro to people who JUST login... telling them quickly where to hunt, main towns, which three skills to choose if their PVMERS or PVPERs, stuff like that... new commers seem really lost and dont know how to get started.
well said
