Mylo's Lair



Poll
Should we advertise the Lair on sites? This will require a section for affiliates to be placed on the front page.
Yes. More members will be nice, and we need more Warriors Roleplayers anyways. 33% [5/15]
Yes. More people will allow for more diverse roleplays! 0% [0/15]
No. Too many people makes a forum go out of control. I don't think we'd be able to moderate everyone. 0% [0/15]
No. We're too small a site to go looking for more people. 0% [0/15]
No. I'm happy with the people I know already. 60% [9/15]
No. They'd wreak havoc upon the forums, and be unruly. 7% [1/15]

Okay. As you know, we're getting the Warriors RP started soon. Very soon. Frighteningly soon.
With this, Sable and I looked upon another Warrior RP site for ideas. ( IslandClans And Their Forum )
There's an area for affiliates on both. Affiliating is where two websites swap links, to let others know of both when the frequent the site.

So, potentially, our new link button () Could be seen, along with a link to here, on a page looked at by probably LOTS of people. (194, it says on their forum, not counting all the people who visit without becoming members)
Think about it.
That's a lot of people.

Since we're getting the Warriors RP up, it'd help to have a lot more Warriors RP'ers, as we only have 9 right now. Most of them would already be experienced at Warriors RPing, and they may also be looking for other types of roleplay as well.

But we could also attract more members than we'd care to deal with. Our little circle will be public to everyone.
We could also get people who enjoy spamming boards onto here. I could always block them, and go into lockdown mode for a while, but I don't want to have to do that.

So. What do you think?
I need EVERYONE'S opinion, here.

If I link on that site, we'll have to set up an affiliates section somewhere on the front page (probably over the Stats box), which could look unsightly, but...

What do you think?

Tell me EVERYTHING.
This is a hard decision.

You already know that I think we should try it out. It was my idea in the first place. XD

Dragons? Why yes, I do have dragons to crowd my signature like there's no tomorrow. They can be located [here].

True, but offer your ideas.


Remember, guys, we could always ask them to take off the link later.

I think it'd be great to have more people on the Lair, but not too many... I kind of like our little circle.

As for more Warriors RP'ers, I'm not involved in that at all since I've never read the books (shame, ellie, shaaame), so I'd be totally lost in that RP... But, the other RP's, I know in Feral I'm already getting horribly confused because I get switched between who's who and people don't reply for a long time, etc.

Spammers are annoying.... But I don't think they'd be a problem because you could just freeze them.

But, I love the affiliate button!! XD Those are some of my favorite colors.

I am now PWNful. Like George Washington's Myspace. :3

Okay, we'll think about that...

And, yeah, the button rocks.

Thanks. That's true, this circle is comfortable, and I'm not sure I want it to change,
but I also want to get more people so we can have more diverse stuff going on.
Roleplaying with the same people over and over lets us anticipate other's actions.
Getting more people lets it get spontaneous.

Though, maybe a bit awkward at times.

Also:
Another potential website to affiliate on.
Night Warriors, an amazingly popular Warriors graphics site.

-shrug-
Just an idea.
Seems the only sites I can find for potential affiliation are Warriors sites.

Um. Wow. It would be realy great to get more members and all, but I really like how the Lair is so private. We're a nice little close community. It'd be great to have more members but at the same time I don't want to lose that...

I agree with Rayu, and the websites are AWEsome! I needed to find them.

Thanks Mylo!

See, chances are, we will do this at some time.
Almost positive.

I just want to know, do y'all think we're ready for it, or should we stick with what we have for now?
(Personally, I want to get going, but... it's also up to yous guys.)

Thanks for your opinions.

(Also, do you want me to put up the links to those sites in the Links thing by the Stats box? Just to take up room and let us get used to it?)

I really like the idea of affiliates..AND we do need more warriors roleplayers.

But...It would get VERY VERY hectic in here...So that is something that would have to deal with if we take the affitiation. I think Im still 50/50 on the affiliation..

LOVE THE NEW SMILEY! XD And the affiliation icon button

Actually, very few people really join sites just because there's a link.
We'll only attract those either really into roleplay, or people just joining things because they want to.

It probably won't get all that hectic...

There's the time issue, too. If we do end up getting a lot of spammers and such, Mylo, will there be enough time to moderate it all?

If there are spammers, then I will block every person who dare.
The worst thing they could do is post a lot. That's easy to fix.
They can't edit anything, so it'll be fine.

Don't forget, I'm on my way to Seattle. That means I'
m going to be on REALLY late at night, or early in the morning. Depends on how you think about it.

Depends upon how sleep-deprived you are.


Still, though. is there anyone who is absolutely against the idea of affiliation?

EDIT:
Added the two sites to the little links section.
Don't fret! I didn't give out our link yet.
I just put them there 'cause they're fun sites to visit.

Ok...I think im ok with the affiliation. The sites that you put up look really nice. I went and visited them a few days back.

Happy New Year's Eve everyone!

Last chance, guys.
If you absolutely cannot have us affiliate, speak now.
Otherwise, I'll submit requests to those sites, and we'll (probably) get linked to, finally.

Do it, Mylo. This will be a great advancement for the Lair, if it actually gets put onto their homepages.
