AMIA ARCHIVE • View topic

Ever since this was put in, my account doesn't stay logged in when I come to the site. Anyone else having that same issue?

I think the screen shots feature the humor of the creator very well, but unfortunately the typical gamer doesn't share it. They could maybe be adapted slightly to be more sexy. A swim instructor or empty forest might not make the typical gamer very eager to try out the game. Better add some chainmail bikinis or a fully buffed group fighting Balors in the Abyss.

And also don't tell people they may not cyber here. Let them start and hope they find out after they became addicted to Amia.

but regardless I find the page a great addition to represent Amia. When I looked for alternative servers I always hated when their website was only a Forum without any additional information.

Midn that I had to select from my pretty limited collection of screenies.

Well, if they fail to take notice of that, they may just get banned for a while before they have a chance to get to know Amia better.

So, people. Post some of your great screenshots here. So Disco can choose the best of the best.

You get banned on first offense?

Depends on the severity of the cybering. Something suspicious won't get you banned, but it's not unheard of for a couple of new players engage in some rather... vivid sessions in imaginative locations.

She means: giving somebody a public blowjob on Cordor Square will lead to a ban.

I should spend more time in places with new players.

And here a few screenshots that might be more appealing from our screenshot threat:

I took a look at all of them. The two good ones are already used iun the little bars at the top of the forum, the other two... well, I don't think they are really representative.

Back to work, German.

The best of my screenshot folder. But also not really that cool.

Quite nice! Will use 'em.

ohhh found my screen shot folder, i have a number of em but dont know how to view .tga files...

edit - possible caption: A pair of drow 'entertain' their 'guests'
edit 2- sorry, dont know how to resize images on forum...

Added a 6 more images, a cycler, ticket's improved html/css layout, and Mago's background.

Can you implement it such that the screenshots cycle in real time when the page is displayed?

Does the last word have to be 'torture'?

The first and last words are usually the most remembered..how about something memorable?

Original:

"Amia is not aimed at an exclusively adult audience. We want a moderate and tasteful environment that appeals to a broad range of players. We therefore prohibit public and private cybering as well as excessively graphic torture."

Edited:

"Amia is not aimed at an exclusively adult audience. We want a moderate and tasteful environment that appeals to a broad range of players. Here cybering and overly graphic torture are prohibited, as we feel this policy creates a better environment for all our players. We encourage roleplay that is fun for all and hope you will find, and create, many enjoyable experiences.

Welcome to Amia."

or something..

That's a good point.

More screenies to choose from:

Elven Duel

Otherwise it is looking good!

Way too much 'elf' in there...

Last one is pretty cool, though.

I will use them, of course. I am just trying to get an annoyed reaction from Maias.

Oh I don't worry, I know you're both very jealous and envious of the proud elven people of winya. But don't worry, you can make an elf today and be rping with the elves this very evening!

I must also add that those screenies are picked from the elven screenie thread so I am in no way claiming ownership of any of those lovely screennies. Most of them are the product of a certain namesake of mine

Use this one, because elves are pointy-earded fruits.

horray! Solauvrin and Isendu't'tar are on the front page!

along with Gobo, the goblin. (I think that was his name)

Aye lass!

I need to dig up some Bendir Dale ones. The front page needs Hin love!

It's always a very good thing to show pictures of how very populated the server is, and how there's a lot of RP and interact between a large number of players.

Those kind of pictures always attracted me in the past, when I were to choose which server I were to play on.

It doesn't say it is hack-free. A direct link to the heads and hands packs could be nifty since many people might just want to visit the website to find out which files they need in order to try out the server.

Wow, nice job everyone! Seriously.. this is something I can now link to on other sites without people asking me WTF it is.

Nicely done!

Regards,

I agree. You should switch "excessively graphic torture" and "public and private cybering".

Cybering is a much better mental image to be left with than torturing.

:wink:

Indeed. I think this is important to mention.

New Front Page!
