We have two options within taking a new world:


WE ARE NOT DITCHING W71DICING, THIS IS JUST TO SEE WHETHER WE SHOULD RUN 2 FRIENDSCHATS ON 2 WORLDS OR 1 FRIENDSCHAT ON 2 WORLDS



  • Using a new friendschat, which will start off empty and will need to build a new reputation in it

    OR

  • Using the SAME friendschat (w71dicing) which will have its reputation and will be many better already in it so it will look more legit on a new world

If we continue to only use one FC, hosts will continue to complain about there being too many hosts, even though they log on for max 1 hour and expect to make as much as the other hosts who are there all day. We can't please everyone, no matter how hard we try.

If we use the current FC and try to take other worlds, people tell us to go back to 71 and say we're scammers who hop worlds.

If we have a huge cc full of betters then it will look a lot more legit then just 'hopping world scammers' although I understand hosting on say w60 with w71 in the name doesnt really look great

Both have their pro's and con's.

Just a suggestion;
We could find a busy spot in world 71 so go to as well as the grand exchange?

This has been a stiffler for all of us. Both, as stated, have their pros and cons. I think the greatest thing that would help us out RIGHT NOW is recognition on Youtube and such. We need to get our name out there, get our legitness out there.

More advertisement will be a huge success for us.

Yayy. I use a Linux based OS so finding a really decent screen recorder isn't as easy. I have found a fairly good one though which should work for the simple needs of RuneScape. Did a little bit of testing a few days ago and it seems to do fine.

Should have some things recorded soon :) Hopefully I can start getting larger pots.

Youtube will be our best friend.

I do think we should have a universal friends chat name though. A heavy transition to Pro S Dice or something would be great. Being limited to w71 by the name is upsetting. It's obviously recognizable to anyone in w71 but outside of that we're claimed to be hoppers [which we are :P]


edit:

As far as the argument about a new friends chat starting off small... that's true. HOWEVER, all the names are recognized by all who already know us. So it's the same member base, same betters. Just a different name. From there, we can expand.

Input?

Sorry for double post, but as far as my previous statement goes:

The main issue forum-wise I foresee with changing the name is that Dana has invested in the actual web domain name of w71dicing.com

If she's willing and it's not too much of a hassle to transfer it over to a different name - problem solved.

Just a thought that came to mind.

I agree with Angel, we need more exposure although on w71 we are the primary trusted name, but eventually people will try and cut into any opportunity on the market. Playing today there has not been many hosts online, but a lot of wannabes trying to get bets with their 55x2 offers. I don't think we have a problem with too many hosts, but I really do think we should work more as a team than for individual gain. Today I spent a fair amount of time directing traffic to other hosts as it was pretty busy, and we all gained as a result.

The big dicing clans have massive monthly drop parties, maybe we should all put in like 10-15m each month to a pot, and do one of these? We can record this, and it gives us very positive exposure. A lot of negativity comes from the fact people are not at ease with gambling, doesn't take much to make us look a bit better :P

With regards to a universal name, I'm just concerned we might have to build up a bit of reputation. I had a lot of new betters today who were knowledgeable with the name and bet a lot of money as a result. But it might make sense in the long run.

PEACE.

I agree on all aspects in different ways. I actually haven't seen w71dicing host a drop party , so I, last week, hosted my own personally. It wasn't much, but consisted of around 10 people and 5m worth of loot.

Was a positive kind of thing for the w71dicing community.
