Spa Room 101 / Re: Its been a while

Hey!
#32
I like the enthusiasm, Drakus, but it's a tough ask.

RWL is nearly 12 years old. Promisance, the code it's based on, is even older. Way back when, an entirely text based game made a lot of sense. It was instant, fast loading, and you could play it on any old connection, on any old web browser.

The ROC was still relatively popular. There were a lot of websites, and they were big. Combining those two things worked, because we attracted gamers and RWL fans. But over time, Promisance got stale. Technology moved on. The Redwall series wasn't as popular.

Today, people use tablets and smart phones for all their casual web stuff. They don't really use PCs in the same way they once did.

The only way I see a game like this surviving into the future is as an app. A super casual one. And you'd have to make it, and that would be hard. Even if you could do it, the competition out there is enormous.

So, I don't really see a way to drastically turn things around. I no longer play the game, and the forums are mostly a way for me to stay in touch with the friends I've made over the last decade.

If you bring in a few of your friends, that's great. But I don't forsee a time where RWL will ever have the hundred plus actives it had in its first couple of years. It only had about 40 actives in reg in 2007. It's now 2014. We've done well to hold on.

Shael's last post was the engagement post, got engaged and never came back :(
Engaged Shael hates RWL. Does married Shael like RWL again?

I know Windy and probably Shadow are going to heavily disagree with me BUT from my experience Macs are for fun, PCs are for work.
This doesn't make any sense.

Krowdon, unless you want a computer for a specific purpose, it's not worth throwing heaps of money at. If a computer to you means word processing and web browsing, virtually anything will do.

For clarity's sake, we should remove the filters. And then there'd never be a doubt if I was abusing them.
You're not exempt from the rules. Being Spa mod doesn't mean you can behave however you like. If I ask you to do something, please do it.

Holby, modding.

See what you don't get is I'm literally typing "[wash my mouth out!!!]"


I can type in italics too.

Did anyone else watch? I was only able to watch half. I kind of wish I'd seen more of those movies a lot of them look good. Especially the animated ones.
I watched. Ellen was fairly OK.

No big surprises on the award front. Although poor Leo etc.
