    Lightbulb A simple thing to help populate the server

    Why don't you guys take something like this:


    ...and add it to the ArmA forum itself, ie:


    There are from 15-30 or more people looking at the ArmA forums at any given time. Having two people connect to the server, and having that banner update to reflect that two guys are playing, would likely result in a more rapid accumulation of players on said server. This doesn't even just apply to ArmA alone - the concept would work for any games that TG hosts.

    The wish list in the supporting member forums would be a good place

    There's no reason not to do this for all TG's titles

    Many people have it in the sigs or in the 12th's case in a sticky in our forums. I think one reason it's not on all the headers is because we have a teamspeak box on teh front page and at the bottom.

    I put it in the Server Wish List forum. We'll see if it flies.

    I have a direct link to the ArmA forum bookmarked so I never see the TS box.

    This idea is definitely worth seriously considering.

    I've never used the TS box. If it showed the ArmA channel on all the ArmA pages, I'd see it.

    Re: A simple thing to help populate the server

    Thanks very much!
    I had no idea what the TG server IP was for ARMA but looking at this thread sure made it darn easy to locate.

    So is TS the method of comms for ARMA?
