Welcome back zero.. spare me the grief and stop with the belated crap of $h!t The forums pretty much dead anyways, don't bother making another forum... unless its goin' to be more epic and without the constant name of Dai or duel academy island, should be like solar blast academy or torrential downpour academy (Lulz)...... But then again, I wouldn't see you making an epic forum by yourself... anyways, there's always MSN! (lulzzz), but then again, more yugioh conversation (rolfcopter) Oh well.... Jesse and the others are trying to get parts of the site backup.. so am I but posting random posts wherever i want XD |

There's no point starting a forum.. haven't you learnt? Keep making one, you'll get no where If you do... you can make it all, everyone else + me can sit back and relax.. If you do... don't call it duel academy, that name is getting lame All in all... there is no point making a new forum because there wouldn't be any point of all the forums you made. |

You see Zero, in the past, it has always been Isaac, Jesse and me who have kept the site alive. Now, Isaac has some stuff other than the site (probably more important too).. I have stuff too, will be going on holiday for a long time, and, hate to admit it.. am losing interest in all the forum thingy. Not Yugioh, however, so if you (or anyone) feel(s) like dueling, just contact me and you know I will duel. However, I'm getting bored of all the 'create this forum, try to bring new people in, watch it die in less than a year' thing. And I think we are all bored of this by now. Finally, Jesse alone (or Jesse AND Timmy, for that matter) COULD try to bring this site back to life.. it's possible, and in fact, I managed to do it (remember the forum where we met, Zero? I was the only member there when I fisrt arrived there, but I cared to contact the former Admin, he came on, gave me Adminship, etc.. you know the roll) Do as you please, but I am tired of working for nothing. I WILL, however, keep coming once a day/every 2 days to check what's going on.. that's it. Face it, Zero, you won't succeed. Of the (how many? 2? 3? or is this the 4th?) forums you've 'created' all have died, AND if this one survived for almost a year, it isn't exactly due to you. THIS SITE IS DEAD!!!! Face it, learn it, live by it |

so...now what are we supposed to do w/o DAI anymore? im prolly gonna try to start a new site on my own...Isaac, if I do this, I will not be asking you for as much help on that site as I did on here...it was wrong of me and I shouldve done stuff on my own..you were right. but if anyone at all would like to help with small things once I get this going(like CotW, running fan-ficts etc...) then send me a PM and ill ggive you the position you would like. Zapico: do you by chance still have that entrance exam you made for this site? |

So now your understanding, couldn't you of been like this when we first started? SCORE, no more helping you... SWEEEEEEET, freedom at last lulz... only joking, look Zero, will you just implant this into your head.. NO MORE DAI If you make a new one, it's going to suck even more than all the previous ones put together. Just live without DAI Edited by Isaac, Dec 31 2008, 03:30 PM.

Just read the ending of my last post. As Isaac says, we still got MSN, get used to it. And this: 'If you make a new one, it's going to suck even more than all the previous ones put together.' Beautifully illustrated, Isaac. I mean, after this, who's going to support one more try? I won't, that's for sure. And god knows that I've always been the one who's tried to keep this thing we call a community alive. It's just not worth it anymore. |

Wow... i've had no say for ages... So it's my turn for a long speech AHEM ok...i changed my mind, it won't be that long. First of All Zero... This site hasn't died yet... it still has a few weeks to be helped. (I believe so). Not just that, but whatever admin you have, that wont change anything. The only way to keep a site alive is to Advertise it. And not many forums have advertising... also, why is this site different to any other Yugioh forum in the history of yugiohforumology? it isn't. So, if you want something new, something unique, and something popular, you'll need to create something pretty much as popular as YVD or World of Warcraft... or even as popular as RuneScape(not saying it's good or anything! :p) I don't know how to do that, or have any ideas to do that, but i'm sure creating multiple forums isn't the way... If you are going to create another forum, make sure the topic is going to survive. To me, Yugioh is coming less of my life. I go on YVD about once every two months now. But that is different to others, like Zapico. But even now, his life is obviously going to be social, probably more than anything, So the members on this forum probably wont be interested in your forum, so don't count on it. Also, what you do too much, is rely on others. You need to make sure you are on almost all the time. If you don't do this, and your forum is dying, you won't have enough time to save it. Once you start losing members, you're gonna lose more. Eventually, there'll be 3 people left, and you probably wouldn't even remember them. In other, shorter words: Don't make another forum. You're not gonna manage. You've tried 3 times, and this only just made a year. how long do you expect to make another one for? THIS SITE NEEDS SOMETHING SPECIAL TO KEEP IT ALIVE. on every forum you remember joining, if allowed, try putting in your Signature a link saying something like this: "This Forum is Dying, Please Join to keep it alive" They don't need to post or anything... if you join a forum, you'd want it to have loads of members, so, just by having members, you'll get more. Every now and then, some will join and enjoy it, and they'll tell others. But i'm sure if you don't do this you'll mess up after... 2 months. I can't think of another way of keeping this forum alive. but so many ways of letting it commit suicide. |

'To me, Yugioh is coming less of my life.' Agreed, even though I hate to admit it.. YUGIOH has been my life for the last couple (even more) of years..but now, I got friends and my gf, so 'But even now, his life is obviously going to be social, probably more than anything,' is also true. You spoke so many truths there Jesse, and put it really straightforward Pretty damn good post
