I'm sorry I haven't been on much but I've had alot on my mind. School, friends, games, clubs and all kinds of crap Ebil Hideout just hasn't been on my mind. I owe this forum alot because it seems like in my absence many people have left the hideout or BattleOn entirely. Much is my fault and I'm most unhappy with myself...
Now in light of my mistakes I'm willing to work to get this back but before that you must understand part of the reason why I left.
My mind is very strange. It seems to me like it LOVES to have some big project to work on. Whether it's a story or making a forums or whatever I get very bored why I don't have anything large to work on which often leads me to abandoning things. This is probably my worst trait ever but it's a sad fact. I came to realize this not long before now so I haven't had time to work on it but I will try.
Now you know this part of me I can explain what I'm going to do. I will make the operation I've created my next big project so I wont feel the need to leave and we can hopefully re-create this forum into a community of ebil-doers
OPERATION: GET EBIL HIDEOUT BACK
Step 1: Send a mass email to all members requesting they return to the hideout.
-This will explain how I'm sorry and that we really will change this time. It'll tell mods the must be active in order to continue being mods and It'll hopefully bring some of the already members back.
Step 2: Build a better site.
-I've been learning HTML for awhile and I think I can put together a better site than a freewebs beginner site. I was previously working on one but it turned out bad and I gave up on it. I'm going to start from scratch. Anyone with HTML knowledge may help with this.
Step 3: Make a better thread on the BattleOn forums.
-The page on the forums looked really bad and not very attractive. Anyone who looked at it just thought we were idiot ebil people who had no idea what we were talking about. First Impressions are very important after all.
Step 4: Create a variety of signatures and banners
to put in our sigs on the BattleOn forums (If you still have one) This'll help advertise us more and hopefully bring more people in.
Step 5: Create an official "Recruiting Document"
-This'll be the document you copy down and send to random people on BattleOn forums for more advertising.
Step 6: Re-Create the Ebil Hideout forums
-I know with more time we can re-do the boards and skins to make this site more efficient to travel through an easier on the eyes (somtimes the red-on-black gives me a headache)
If anybody has anything to add to the plan, post here or PM me and I'll asses if it is needed.
