well, the people that are referred to the site doesn't see that first page, but the referral page initially.

then If they sign up from the main GLB page, the referrer gets ZERO credit (Flexpoints) for it despite having made the actual referral, simply because the newcomer clicked on the main page and sign up from there.

Zero flex points.


Most newcomers that are referred sign up under the referral page.

Which is something that would help generate more $ if it actually looked FUN. But it kinda looks like a prison site.

Graphics Contest for 1000 FPs to whoever's main page is used. Have a poll and vote after Bort picks the top 5. Community picks the #1.

I like the idea.

LOL. Thats my point. The referral site does not generate interest the way the main site KINDA almost does. IMO they both fail to drum up people's interest.

Hence it is difficult to refer people to this place. and less Flex points!!

Flex points are immaterial, we just need more players to fuel new team growth and the introduction of more teams. Bort needs to hand out GLB flyers at TrailBlazer's games

Except it isn't really held up. People make multis all the time to spam crap on the forums, with no consequence besides the multi being banned.

No reason to scare users away by threatening them about multi accounts, then do nothing about them when people actually make them.

Don't judge a book by it's cover. I bet you'd want google to upgrade their interface too. It might attract more users.

As far as I know, Google doesn't threaten to ban users, in bolded caps nonetheless.

Look at it....huge bold caps threatening users before they even sign up.

I was scared shitless when I read this, so I felt forced to join..

Bingo haha

The front page is decent. The sign-up page is amateur hour. And Deathblade is 100% right on the fact that the rule doesn't even get enforced.

The FAQ's and Guides are also shoddy. I'd like an in-depth description of the abilities and whatnot put down in a nice sample player page. Sort of like how the SAs have that blue window, you'd have that for each attribute on the sample instructional page.
