C&C Divisions Reform
#1
Posted 21 February 2009 - 01:08 PM
Basically, I'm here to inform you all of some provisional changes to the three Command & Conquer divisions in Revora - CnC Guild, CNC3.net and CNCRA3.net.
Now, granted, I'm understating it a little. The idea is to unify the three divisions under one banner within Revora, rather than three separate sites and communities. The current division staff teams will be combined into one to manage the new merged division, which will handle all C&C related activities.
Of course, while this will bring obvious changes to the forum structure, the sites will also change. Provisionally, we hope to use the three sites as frontends to one common database, based on 2playgames' article system, which is already in use on T3A and CNC3.net.
Discussion on this idea is already taking place at higher levels among the division admins. But we understand this is a pretty major change to the status quo here at Revora, so any ideas or feedback you, the members, have would be very welcome. Use this topic to post any of that, please.
We have no timetable for these changes at present, so please give us all the feedback you can before we get to work.
Thanks.

Suggestions about what?I'm surprised nobody posted any suggestion so far.
I thought this topic was just stating a plan. What do you need input for?
If you'd stop pinning everything it would be alot easier to spot new topics in the Feedback forum. Peeps need to learn about eye scanning and readability.

Well, for all we know, everyone may not like the idea. We'd rather create something that people would actually want, as opposed to something everyone is going to hate and throw things at.please give us all the feedback you can before we get to work.

RA3 never really took off and cnc3 barely did. I say move them into the landfill (cncguild) catagory of old and tired or unsuccessful games.

The Guild is great but in need of renovation. It's time we take care of that instead of ignoring it.

Ok - On Topic -I agree with MightyBob Completely. Seperate Modding Communities are essential.
You can still have everything under one banner and still be seperated - just look at CNCNZ.com and even PPM.

Taking in consideration the fact that PPM has a lot of good projects,it would be interesting if we could move some of those projects here(and I don't mean small,new projects...)
That's 1
Another thing is to create a campaign like "Help CnCGuild" or something like that - Promoting people to visit both forums and gain experience from both,as well as giving experience to others.
Another one would be adding/replacing moderators for that forum:I have to say it,even if the admins there are really good guys,unfortunately they are sort of inactive.
I have to recognize it,I'm also enough inactive here.
Another thing would be - and its the most radical ideas of all above - is splitting CnC Guild from Revora.The reason why PPM succeds more is because PPM is a CnC only forum.Ofcourse it has its own spam zones,and other discussion forums,yet,its very independent.
And as people who are looking towards CnC are looking towards a more modding-only place.
Please take my ideas into consideration,

PPM is a community of its own, we don't just move its projects. Revora is another mod hosting site, not necessarily the next rung up the ladder.Taking in consideration the fact that PPM has a lot of good projects,it would be interesting if we could move some of those projects here(and I don't mean small,new projects...)
That doesn't sound much different to normal operation. I don't really forsee something like that accomplishing much more than an increased amount of the sorts of topics members tend to ignore because the requests are that basic, or farfetched.Another thing is to create a campaign like "Help CnCGuild" or something like that - Promoting people to visit both forums and gain experience from both,as well as giving experience to others.
The staff will be shook up a bit with the three divisions merging, but I don't really see any problems with the current moderators. And the inactivity is somewhat symptomatic of a lot of Revora. Real life can't be helped.Another one would be adding/replacing moderators for that forum:I have to say it,even if the admins there are really good guys,unfortunately they are sort of inactive.
CnC Guild used to be an independent site and forum, back in the joyous times of Origin Network. However, under Revora, I would say it has benefitted from the influence of the wider network.Another thing would be - and its the most radical ideas of all above - is splitting CnC Guild from Revora.The reason why PPM succeds more is because PPM is a CnC only forum.Ofcourse it has its own spam zones,and other discussion forums,yet,its very independent.
The Guild is a modding hub, so I'm not sure what you're getting at there...And as people who are looking towards CnC are looking towards a more modding-only place.
