What would make people play LS again?

[Elysia]

Wherever there are multiple people on the same team, there will be differing opinions. Some of us are more rp inclined, others more pk inclined. Some feel there should be more attention paid towards the rank 1-6's, others feel there should be a rank 8 goal or remort for LS/SS. Some feel clan quests should be updated every 3 months, others feel it's more realistic to aim for once a year. Some feel we should trim the map, others feel we should leave it as is.

Even in this thread there are differing opinions. It comes with multiple people caring, having a slightly different perspective/interest and having an opinion.

Aye, good stuff

I feel like, this community we have, can be so much more. Most of us, as players want us to be more. We want the 100+ players on at one time.

Sometimes when I log on, and there is a who list of ~20 people, I often think to myself that there really has to be more than 20 people on the entire planet awake with internet access and an interest in a Wheel of Time text game, but just don't know about us.

getting players to come back is equally as important if not more important than recruiting newbies. The players make this game afterall.

recruit your friends on fb and skype to give it another chance. find out why they left and raise their issues with the staff. The staff need to be willing to face some criticism but there has to be a willingness on everyones behalf to rescue this game from an avg of 10 lsers at a time to a more sustainable 30.

I have recently come back and most of my time has been awesome. LS is great. I feel people can be negative when regards to stats, but just helping someone level and eq does loads! Speaking from experience. I have even helped some true newbies. I feel like LS needs that DS mentality, where eq doesnt matter, if you have it, it's for the Horde. That is how I have approached LS this time with tremendous success. I urge you to do the same.

For me what would make me come back is: getting the Mudlet client 3.0.0 version finally "done" and released - I've been contributing to the C++ code for the project for a couple of years now and I'm making headway but there are still things that need fixing before it could be said to be ready - and there are other things that I think could be done differently/better/more reliable that I want to work on.

On the other hand I guess I must be getting towards my 200th Birthday, and I have not made any effort to move towards getting my Shawl, but would the Brown Ajah still be interested in me - I do not feel that my future lies with the Green as my combat skills have never been that strong. *sigh*

Just a comment from someone who played a lot about 5 years ago. For me, it is time. I'm out of grad school (nothing like being able to play while sitting in an undergrad class at the back of the room as a TA!), I have a full time job, my daughter is older now too. If I have time to play a game, I have 30 minutes max. WotMUD just doesn't work well with that time commitment -- especially when those 30 minutes (max remember!) comes once a week or so. If there is some way to put together very short fun activities, that may work, but honestly, it was the longer activities that I enjoyed. I don't see WotMUD being able to cater to someone like me anymore.

I did quit because I was very frustrated with the Tower. But I was at the edge already because of real life lack of time. I could have dealt with the Tower if I had time. But put the two together, and I stopped playing regularly.

I have come up with a foolproof plan.
Step 1: take in surroundings
Step 2: make plans for your own fake death
Step 3: fake death
Step 4: make lots of monies with minimum effort
Step 5: live life without distractions and lots of monies with good link
Step 6: Play WoT

AKA become a young mudder with 0 responsibilities like me.

I'm trying to make people play LS by getting all of the uniques. That gives everyone on LS a chance to get some!
