Funny, I remember you calling it a useless feature of jk2world.net (maybe not that harsh, but something in the lines).Daggolin wrote: One thing we do want to offer soon are "clan sections". Giving clans the opportunity to have an own forum section on jk2.info could bring clans closer together and offer a central place for all of jk2 to get together and show new players the variety of clans.
Jk2.info is not under the line of Daggolin...So even if he would not like the idea, there are still more ppl who also have a vote on decisions...We discuss things democratically and the majority wins...Like in this case i brought up the clan categorys and now we are going make them...fau wrote:Funny, I remember you calling it a useless feature of jk2world.net (maybe not that harsh, but something in the lines).Daggolin wrote: One thing we do want to offer soon are "clan sections".

What's your suggestion?fau wrote:Cool. Still don't understand why we're duplicating our efforts but it's your choice.
I always thought your page was a bit of a mess; jk2.info seems a lot easier to navigate, and have less unnecessary stuff.fau wrote:As I wrote, that was my suggestion before jk2.info was online and completed and you rejected it then. I'm not sure why, but from what I've heard you're going to reproduce a web portal functionality starting from phpbb.
On a side note, there is no need to re-register, I've sucessfully migrated previous phpbb users/forums and could do it again.
Well, I said I wanted to work with you. If you didn't like something we could make it better. I'm not much of a web designer and was missing some help in this department. Obviously a simple phpbb forum is easier to navigate at first sight, because it's just simple. I assure you everyone gets used to it quickly though. Have a look at some very popular gaming portals (http://hltv.org, http://teamliquid.net) out there. They are real messKameleon wrote:I always thought your page was a bit of a mess; jk2.info seems a lot easier to navigate, and have less unnecessary stuff.
Also, back then your page seemed to appeal mostly to the 1.04 community, where jk2.info was made with the entire community in mind.
I was responding to "can't tell people to re-register" part. You had put some work into it already and didn't feel like abandoning it. I can surely relate to that.Daggolin wrote:fau, at the time we talked jk2.info was already prepared and ready (as we told you) and the release scheduled.
I didn't say anything like that. Actually I wish you all the best like anyone else trying to do something for jk2. As you can see I promote jk2.info everywhere I can, including jk2world.net, my code repos and yt channel. I said that a portal has advantages over phpbb forums and I stick to this opinion.Daggolin wrote:You don't stop 1 week before release, just because someone proudly tells you his concept would be far superior and you would horribly fail.
Well, that was my idea. How else do you merge two community sites? If you have something other in mind, like a split of duties, say it aloud please.Your suggestion wasn't really working on something together, but you wanted us to give up jk2.info and join jk2world at a time we already had the domain, things set up and only needed to properly "go online".
Well yeah, this is what happening right now and I'm just slightly disappointed, but it's not that terrible. We don't have plans about 1.02 and 1.03 because we are not 1.02/1.03 players, I know nothing about these communities and can't create content for/about them. Doesn't mean they are not welcome on an equal footing.And I don't see a reason why jk2.info and jk2world can't co-exist (and possibly work together). After all the focus of jk2world is still 1.04 nf (mostly the polish part) and you just recently decided to expand (about the same time as jk2.info was made), but your "associates" (not sure if that's the right term) said there would be no plans for 1.02 and 1.03.
Slow loading times are due to poor hosting and I'm not switching until we get some more traffic (should be soon). Didn't register that part about mobile version, can you write it again? On the other hand you had many more issues with it and I addressed them all.And regarding what Kameleon said ("working together" and making jk2world better) we did point out some things about jk2world - the loading times, the hard to use mobile version, ... - and so far you have not adjusted any of that (it has been months now).
Why not? Writing helps you organize your thoughts, be more self-aware and to the point. At least for me, I know there are "speakers" and "writers"However this whole conversation seems a bit "off topic" to me. I think it would be a lot more productive to get the people behind jk2.info and jk2world into a big Skype group (or similar) and to talk/write about things. Continuing on here is probably not leading anywhere.
I think that regarding this topic it's easy to write things that are misunderstood or seem offending even if that wasn't their intention. Talking in a small group allows one to be more "open" and in case of misunderstandings they can easily be resolved with short explainations, without things appearing like "accusations" that remain on the forum forever, making one or the other look good or bad.fau wrote:Why not?
