LVP 2.94 has been developed with only one goal: Bringing players back.
The gamemode alone is not going to do this. We need some assistance from the management with the following things in order of priority:-
1. We desperately need userbars and signatures. If players add these to their forum signature and go posting on the SA:MP forums it will be great! I'm aware some templates have already been created so it only really requires the PHP. Not hard.
2. Media Section. This is the main thing the website is desperately lacking. If I visit a website for a SA:MP server I immediately look out for any videos and screenshots. We could really use a media page with a link to LVPs youtube channel as well as some screenshots. I'll personally add some development videos to the youtube channel and we'll also link it up with the new promo trailer. We can also link it up with some community created videos.
I'm sure Sander will be able to provide plenty of screenshots.
3. SA-MP.com advertising. Considering recent financial issues this should be in the maybe pile but I do believe it would be a wise investment to advertise through google adwords on the SA-MP.com website when 2.94 is launched. Perhaps a certain someone might be able to get us discount
And that's it. It's obvious LVP has recently been undergoing some financial troubles. I believe these solutions are prudent for resolving them. (Number 1 more so than anything!)
I've got quite a few other tricks up my sleeve but I won't ruin the suprise! It's only the three highlighted points here that I need the managements assistance/approval of.
