Should I make a region?

Postby Bluelight-R006 » Sat Oct 07, 2017 4:07 am

I was just seeing regions and thought if I should make one

I need advice from people as it sounds kinda fun leading a region but hard to get members

Sure! I don't have any experience in making a region, but if you have a decent premise, solid presentation, and a good telegram campaign you should be able to get a few early members! That's how the region I'm in got started maybe I think

Sorry to bother but what do you mean by solid presentation and decent premise?

Please join my region. I need members. I couldn’t find a suitable region so this is a neutral one.

A well coded WFE and a good intro dispatch.
A fun idea, for instance Slavania is slavic themed.

Solid presentation - make your main page look fancy! Add some colour (in your case, blue), some fancy symbols, maybe put in a joke or two, just make it look nice as it's what potential members will see just before they join.

Decent Premise - there's tons of regions out there, so you'll need some sort of hook (premise) to draw people in. My region (come and join us btw, the link is in my signature) - the Ring - had the premise of being located on the archetypal Ring - a tropical ring-shaped island. I decided that I liked the premise and it fit my vision for the nation, so I joined in even though it only had about 20 members at the time. Maybe your region has a sci-fi future theme? Maybe it'll be located on a Post-Apocalyptic Earth? Maybe it'll be just regular Earth, but every continent is a clone of Europe? Maybe it's a prehistoric caveman region? Samurai Japan? Future Post-Apocalyptic Samurai Japan? It's all your choice.

Also, if you want people to feel like a part of the region you should probably have a regional map that people can put their nations on. The day West Violence got on that map was the best day of my life, but for Very Round, it was Tuesday.
If you want a real sense of community and better communication with members, you should probably make a regional Discord (better skype) server as well. The community is the best part of any region imo.

I think its not a good idea to on asking for people to join your region. Mods don't find that behaviour desirable.

*Regional Advertising Spam: The only places where you are allowed to put region advertisements are: The Gameplay Forum (they will be deleted if posted elsewhere) and the regional message boards of the game-created regions (The Pacific, The North Pacific, The East Pacific, The South Pacific, The West Pacific, Lazarus, Osiris, Balder, The Rejected Realms and the Official Warzones). Note that it is not legal to advertise in copycat regions such as "West Pacific". One ad per 24-hour period or per 10 posted messages, whichever is longer.
