Dunno if it's just me, but if u want a little constructive criticism....

Lose anything that require the use of Active-X controls. You will lose traffic this way as people are not as willing to lower the security on their browser.

Try to avoid text colours that are hard to read - like blue text on black background... there are a lot more colour blind people than you will realise. Some of them won't even realise (I'm not colour blind).

Some of the text on the menu at the left does not sit at all well with the background colour - green text agains a green / white bacground makes for awkward reading.

One final little thing, have a play with your keywords. Search engines will work better and will give you a better ranking if you have 'phrases'. Also, look to get links from as many sites as you can, as this also will help search engine ranking.

If you want to know a few of the 'tricks' and info on Google, drop me a PM

EDIT-----

And whatever you do, do NOT have music playing in the background. You have no idea what an awkward situation you can put others in if they are at work and don't realise that music is going to come blasting out their speakers - I speak from experience here

About the chatroom, get an java applet to an IRC room. So people who already have it can chat and easily join instead of being bugged by a java applet.

Would be a nice play to discuss current CU stuff aswel, or find teams so we can hunt/grind together etc.

Hey Guy, I remeber when we were all young pups, still wondering what to do at thetop... I'll tell you, disappear into the deserts of Tatooine for a few months at a time, occasionally coming to town and talking to a few random strangers... Wow this site has grown, I am pleased with how well you have been doing as correspondent, it seems you have done a great job as a successor... Well, I am going to catch up to the boards for a while, then I'll probably run off for a while again, meditating in the desert, and see what is out there for me... So, I'll be around for a little while, off and on, and we'll catch up someday to where we can all go hunting someday... btw, remember when I was on here long ago, and said I was surrendering pik so I could teach everyone I was in touch with the newbs on the site... well I did it again after a little grinding, lol...

so that makes 2 times I have mastered pikeman, it was a lot of fun doing it again, and I think the current system is working out pretty well, I mean I didn't make it that fast, though I was not so motivated to make master yet again, so I smelt the roses and took my time with only a little grinding. So it was a great experience...

I reccomend you try it... though I would say, don't do it on your pre-existing char... that was a bad time for Khrim to not be able to fight... lol, I mastered medic, artisan, armorsmith,weaponsmith, scout, merchant, tailor, chef and working on SL andBH too... All when I was out, just to fill the gap while I was taking my time to the top... haha, it was an interesting exp. (to say the least).

I only play for a few weeks at a time, if even that, cause I have been kept pretty busy, but I am going to continue to try and be on more and more as time may be hard to come by soon... As I have a little "Khrim" coming on the way, and despite her intrests, I think I will have to name it Daniel if it is a boy... oh, and Padame is out too... gunna have to come up with a girl's name... haha...

Anyways, trying to keep you posted, on the current events, and forever loyal to my pikeman bretheren.

I /salute all you pikeman working up the ladder, and know that us old masters know the dedication it takes to be one, so keep on sweeping away the opposition, and know that we can kick ten guy's asses with a long stick. "In your face!"

Oh, btw your grand master title came in, I am trying to work on a site to honor the great pikeman from back in the day, and provide a place to record all the stories of the old times, like when we were the most powerful out there, and then the weakest, etc. Btw, you can elect people to the grand master title too, now that you are one, kinda like an elders listing... perhaps you should make a closed thread where you can update the list, including their name and server, and anything else ya wanna post about them...

Well, this has been a long post and it is time to mess around in the other world for a while, so until next time, Gunman and your following.
