Secret Santa 2024

Forum button in the game main menu.
Not my idea, it's Oblivion's.
Despite that, my impression is that we mostly have clans of oldtimers and inactive people, who have either moved on to other games, or grew up and have little time for Toribash anymore. It seems that when people get a good hang of the forum it takes little time before they lose interest in the game.

Maybe that's because a lot of people don't have contact with the forum right from the start.
Suggestion that might deserve a thread(?) - adding a button on the menu ingame that would redirect people straight to the forum would likely make people forum-active right from the start and we could have more people participating on this kind of events??

So yeah.

So much yes. I can't count how many people I've directed to the forums only for them to respond with something along the lines of "There are forums?!"
\o/
but i dont think writing forum on the ingame will make them click it
we need something to force them see the forum
like you only play ingame if you posted 1-2 posts
^just an example
but like i said the main idea must be made!

I feel the same urgency about making this happen before we go on Steam.
There are split feelings about how many new members we will get when this happens, but I think we can all agree this will bring new members, and they will need to use the forums.

put nobody will ever want to click that
nobody
in my opinion delete the register ingame
so people go to the toribash forums and register there
maybe they will have to post 1 time to get the ingame activated?
they will see the forums that way
but i like the main idea
supported!

I have to disagree with you saying "nobody" will click the forums button.

Maybe not everybody will, but many will. And that will make implementing this link worth it.

Here's one of the last threads with this idea.
I'm glad it keeps getting suggested so that it doesn't get forgotten.

Yes thank you lets make this happen already, it's not that hard to make an option in toribash to direct to a webpage

well, u cant force them to post, thats kind of stupid.
but to say something like "want to explore more about toribash? want to costumize your tori? need help in the game?(id mean single/multiplayer tutorials)
then visit the forum!"

just something like this.

the idea at all is really great, yea. i think it will also help the community to grow a bit more.

Seems like a good idea This is gonna help the new people from steam
Look at this cat and it will melt your heart and give me tc. :P
They should add a new button in the menu called 'Toribash forum' that would attract new players coming into the game.
