Are you implying that the witty, slightly silly, often insane banter between JP and myself is wrong unless we have a third party?

There's a difference between trolling and just posting silly stuff intended to make people laugh.

Believe me, these forums NEED more silly stuff. And with the group of Mods you have now, it will actually be allowed.

Provided we keep crazyfists from locking everything. :P

If you have something to add to the topic then by all means contribute and we will continue with the discussion. Sure sometimes we are a little silly at times as Burn said. But, we are all here to have fun. If you're not here to have fun then why be here. There is a difference between having fun and taking things to seriously.

Jeep?'s post actually had merit and a reason. (Is that an Oxymoron?) :P

so how do we drum up more maxi activity?

from whats been said, the maxi's don't really check the boards. any feedback? I know rp does, a little bit,but with the exception of 1 or 2 others the maxi's aren't really active board users, and it seems only a handful play.

we need more maxi players to actually join missions.

Well Psychout did the news thing, unfortunately it was pushed off the news menu on the left within a day. Sure it's still on the news page but how many people use that when they've got the menu?

And apparently the Command Bulletin's are bjorked otherwise they'd be getting utilised.

So there's probably not much else we can do. :?

can't it be re-posted? granted it might be a pain, but its an option, right?

Doubtful. Someone would no doubt get their knickers in a knot about it.

Im about to enter into discussons with the news admin teams about it to try and get a bit more coverage, weve got some big events coming up and would hate to see them being missed by the less active players.

I don't know about everyone else, but even though HMW really isn't news, it should be featured on the main page at least. I swear there used to be a module about it. I just looked and there was nothing there. Am I making things up or is it just gone? :shock:

Lets hope they agree to put one back up.

HMW is the black sheep of Seibertron.

Beast Factions are the black eye of HMW.

I don't think we're the black eye. Just not as recognizable as the Autobots or the Decepticons. I just wish more players would have helped balanced the factions after reset. But, I can't fault people with going with who they want as that's a big factor in having fun.

I went Pred for balance, then found that I enjoyed it more than I enjoyed being a Decepticon - there was something very satisfying about being the 'underdog' that thrashed all the other factions put together.
Then the reset happened and we went back to plain old underdogs. Still fun though.

I use the main HMW page as my homepage, lets me see what my last results were before I slap a bunch of new guys into missions.

Day 2 journal entry:

New missions are different. Maximals mounted a surge of 3 or more opponents in a mission. Surge lasted approximately 2 hours. Losses negligable. Arena wait times still to long to be worth it. Still averaging 200 XP a win with 19 of 20 missions won against the Maximals. Maximal threat is non-existant as the only good commanders are not on together enough to mount a serious challenge. XP reserves running low. There are literally young Predacons starved to death in the streets. Hopefully command will reopen trade with the Autobots and Decepticons soon, before even the most hardy Predacon is left nothing but a shattered husk from lack of XP. Who would have thought winning would cost us so much.

I'm always checking them right after i throw bots into missions. I know i've seen at least 6 or 7 of my teammates checking as well down on the 'whos viewing'. We're not as vocal though i don't think, except maybe Gizmo, but he's a mod now so he should be vocal a bit more. I generally tend to pick my spots.
