You've got updates!
-->(5:36 am) Dark_warrior98: About your classified ad:
You are not the first, you are not the last.
BYOND recently had a crackdown on fangames forbidding them from asking for any sort of business procedures such as ads, or even getting your game listed on the front page.
But the contents of your ad, here's some problems:
1.) You can't contribute anything to the game other than ideas? So you want people to do all the work for you and create the game with no $ compensation? You'll probably get a team, but it'll end up unfinished like all other people asking for "coders mapers and iconers" (which you spelled wrong, and none of them are words. It's "Programmers, Environment Designers, and Pixel-Artists)
2.)You want it to be free of annoying bugs? My brother's a professional game designer who gets paid to work and he's been bug-testing a game for 6 months. You don't even plan to pay this Programmer, when you get one, and you expect him to make a bug-free game? In what time frame? Sorry, but anyone who agrees to program for you probably won't be good at it.
{More Coming}
-->(5:43 am) Dark_warrior98: 3.) "Like Ranks, Arena, Shinigami Academy , Quincy , stuff like that, I need iconers to make terrain Mobs and Weapons" <--- You don't program in "Arena, Shinigami Academy, Quincy." What is Quincy? What qualifies as a quincy? I know Quincy is the archer guy, but when you're setting goals for a game they have to be clear, and obvious. How do I "program in Quincy"? If I give blue arrows to someone does that make them a Quincy? Shinigami Academy? If I make a building and map an icon over it that says "Shinigami Academy" does that work? You're really not descriptive about your classified ad, which means you must not really have any good ideas that haven't already been thought of.
4.) The only compensation you're providing is Head Admin. Anyone who thinks being an admin is compensation is probably going to be a shitty admin. Are you aware that professional games PAY their admins? If you're really a GOOD admin, then you have a lot of responsibilities, and you deserve to get paid for it. That's like me saying "As compensation for you moving that huge ass log, I'll let you type my son's 20 page college essay with no pay :D!"
5.) I don't know if you're speak English inherently or its a second language... or whatever. But shit man, you didn't bother to use proper capitalization, punctualization, or spelling. I mean fuck, whenever the letter "i" is all by its self, you may as well just make it a capital one.
Not to mention you mention you don't have any good means of contact. You want your team to design an entire game over some forums, and BYOND pager? No. You're going to need to provide an e-mail, or some sort of IM device, it's really doubtful you'll be able to get shit done if you can't contact them quickly.
