Hello, all. Some of the older members and chat lurkers know me, some of you don't. I'm Ego, a former Storybook Tycoon responsible for storybooks such as Necropolis, the Uprising, and Four Treasures.The Storybook Forum is in absolutely SHAMBLES, friends. It's at the lowest per-month posting numbers since 2007 (Six years, people. SIX YEARS).
Per the Head Honcho himself, Nate:
- Storybooks are currently hovering at about 650 posts per month (although May is already at over 700)
- In late 2007, storybooks went from a couple hundred per month to almost 2000 per month in a very short period of time.
- By March 2008, there were 4,000 posts.In April 2008, there were over 7,500 posts.
- Since then we've been declining, but mostly hovering at 1,500 to 2,000 posts, til recently.
This is unacceptable.
So my questions to you are as follows:
- What can we do to make YWS' Storybook Experience better for you?
- What do you think are the main flaws or weaknesses that Storybook Writing on YWS has?
- Finally, what are some ideas you have for the way Storybooks and handled on the site to improve the overall experience?
Furthermore!
