Changing to a full gaming forum would prove to be a problem considering the large variety of games out there. Well established games with a large fan base would normally already have their own official forums and why PGN has been able to go so far is because of PTD. PTD brought us all together - meaning we all to some extent care about Pokemon. Instead of introducing LoL or CoC or WoW (Why do all of these games use alliteration?) I think we should become a full Pokemon forum. There's an established fan base out there, there is so much we can do with Pokemon that there isn't an official forums out there covering ALL aspects and it's what a lot, if not all, the people on PGN have in common. That's just what I think. With PNN, you might say we need a bigger fanbase. What I say is we need youtube. If we have a youtube channel where members could post battle commentaries, talk about new metas or just do Nuzlockes/playthroughs and grow as a community on youtube. Then, we try to get viewers over to PGN to participate in discussions and suggest video topics - PNN would be like the official image where we give news of what's happening in the Pokemon community each week/month. But if we do nothing, nothing will improve around here. |

I just want to do something that'll attract the visitors so much that they'll join- and then, keep doing that so they stay. And now, what tactic we use in order to attract guests and improve ourselves- we could put on a great big poll on the main page of this forum. So, guests can vote too. If they have 'other' suggestions, they can send it through email or something. OR- an easier idea would be- setting up a forum poll for the forum members to vote in or comment on. Either way, we gotta do something. .__.
@Sonic: Same here, though I may only have (strictly) an hour to spend each day. But, count me in this too!

Well I'm glad you guys want in in the Operation: Revive Pandora. We have to decide on a direction though, Pokemon or Gaming? I'll put up a poll. |

From what I've seen before, gaming never got enough love. Pokemon, even when it wasn't PTD related, dominated over generic gaming. |

Well according to me, We should become a full fledged Pokemon forums as Pokemon (PTD) was the main reason why most of us joined Pandora. So Pokemon is the direction the forums should go in. |

Voted for pokemon. In the end I think it'll be better for us to remain a pokemon forum but we need to fimd ways to attract new members. Also it wouldn't hurt to have a general gaming section of the forum somewhere with a list of popular multiplayer games. LoL, WoW, Borderlands, Clash of Clans, smash bros etc |

Probably not CTD... tbh from what I've seen, all there can be discussed about is how to beat the levels. And you'd probably want to youtube a guide instead of asking around and waiting a day for a decent reply. I mean if thats what you guys want, I can write guides to CTD. But we need something with interaction to increase the posts per day or whatever. The best comment I can get if I write a guide is "Good guide." |

I think Pokemon is what brought us all here so converting to a full fledged pokemon forum is a good idea. However, we need this place to look more attractive rather than 5 posts a day, otherwise, those New members won't want to join. I believe though we could set up a small subforum for games that our members play besides Pokemon if enough people want it, kind of like the yu-gi-oh section. |

Is it possible to create subforums with an age gate? If so we could have a general gaming forum section with an MA15+ gaming section for people who like games like Borderlands, Skyrim, CSGO, LA Noire etc |

As far as I know, no (also, sometimes people lie about their age so there's that). We could make it password protected, but we don't have any way of actually verifying people's ages. |

Whatever we do, we must remember not to mix it up. The theme should only be one so that people aren't confused about what our forum really represents. So, I'm ok with anything that you guys do as long we get more friends around here. Just to put it out there

To be fair though if people lie about their age then they can't file our forum to get shut down because they are the ones who said they were old enough to go into the forum when they actually weren't. Still, just an idea that can be looked at later down the road |

Password protected I guess? We could make a topic where people who are 15+ (or whatever) can leave a messaged and be pm'ed the password. However I don't think this is such a great idea as it would blank out part of the community, especially if those parts of the forum gets a lot of coverage. I guess we go for Pokemon. I'm a little busy in real life at the moment but I'll brainstorm some ideas and put them out for discussion. Also GForce, would it be possible to include me in your conversation with Sam? Not trying to get into your private space or anything but since you haven't done PTD in quite a while, maybe I could be of assistance in terms of working things out. By the way, there will be a lot of planning going on in the future (probably in the staff forums), if any of you want to take up a more active role in the planning process and help make the decisions, please shoot me a PM and I'll see if I can extend your access so you can help out too ;D |

Significant changes made. In terms of Sam, he just wanted to know what he could do. I suggested us doing some first look youtube videos again, or exclusive giveaways etc. |

I think exclusive giveaways would be best, perhaps making a blog post about us. If he doesn't want to give away pokemon, ask if he could specifically make a blog post promoting one of our giveaways and I'll see what I can get so everyone can win something ;D |

I'd be happy to make some youtube vids for the forum. About two years ago when the forum set up it's first youtube channel I made a video explaining the location of shadow sentret in the really early days of PTD and it got like 4K views. This was also at the time where there was that guy who's name I can't remember but he was hell bent on putting our forum out of business. I think it was like M4dernWarfare or something like that. I can't remember though |

Welcome Neon to the staff team As a previous mod and long standing contributor to the forums I am sure you'll be able to give us some great ideas that will help us revamp PGN and make us active againBy the way, it's M16dernwarfare. To be honest I'm pretty sure most of his accounts have been deleted after the purge xD so we don't have to worry about him, if PTD is still a thing |

Congrats neoN on the promotion! Also, I think m16dernwarfare stopped caring about PTD because he realized that it wasn't as fun compared to the first one. |

If you want my honest opinion, I've talked to m16 and a lot of his "hacking" team and rather than the loss of interest, I think he quit PTD because: 1) Loss of player interest - Sam started to slack off and stopped updating the game; people started quitting in masses 2) His "team" stopped hacking - I've talked to jtj, shiki and a couple of the people from his "hacking team". Not to downplay m16 or anything but most of the hacks, apparently weren't discovered by him. As interest decreases, m16's lack of hacks (which is basically what his channel builds on) means that he doesn't get as much coverage. The cloning hack he released was a sort of final try to get his audience back, but well, it didn't work that well. Anyway, if m16 decides to quit PTD, it shows how much PTD is falling |

M16? I can't believe I'd ever see that name again.... I'm pretty sure he's not much of a problem anymore. I'm pretty sure he's not involved with PTD anymore so.... Congrats on the promotion neOn! |

M16 was fun to have around, purely for the competition aspect of things. It was always a buzz to find things before him or the other way round I'm sure. I think with GraphicForce channel gone it was good for him at first, but now he has nobody really to compete with which I bet ain't no fun xD I for sure wouldn't have wanted his channel to go when I was still around. The guy had problems, but he was just a young kid still at school, so I'm sure we can put them aside and understand haha. Alas, glad to see you guys are enjoying the changes. |
