AuthorPopularity of the game
I don't know if this is really a question for Q&H, but if not, pls move it to the appropriate forum.

What is the fact that has made the .ru server very much popular, whereas here in the .com server, each hour, there are no more than 1000 players! Right now, there are just 193!

I mean what was done to popularize .ru server so much? Can't the same method be used here?
what was done to popularize .ru server
- ru-servers were created one year before this one
- mainly Russian speaking players visit ru/com
- Russian speaking players prefer on ru, because some of them don`t know English/find this server boring because of the lack of updates
I mean what was done to popularize .ru server so much?

Well, .ru server just had a lot of events, regular tournaments (not only STs). There were even two wars at that server.
what was done to popularize .ru server
+ runet contest in 2009 attracted many gamers

Updates, Events, Mainly PROPER JUSTICE.
The basic needs for a gaming server is done there,
where as Admins are too busy to be here !

Simple.
Many admins speak Russian and not so much English.
Therefore, they spend time on the Russian server and not here.
Everything else is a side effect of this fact.
@ flour why dint u become an admin, i hv seen ur sripts they r really useful

+ u r more more useful than admins that rarely visit .com
@ all

all wrong.

It hasn't got anything to do with admin activity, it's the other way round (=server population makes that admins activity is higher).

Game became more popular at the beginning in RU because it was created in a social climax that permitted to this kind and level of social distractions to exist. Also a few external events made the game a little more known at the beginning.

LWM was more directed to another kind of social context, where people just don't have the same game philosophy (Europeans and americans are nowaday oriented on other gaming activities, without 'dead timings' to wait, like the boring travels between locations, for example, and HOMM is considered an outdated game);
that plus the "invasion" of veteran players from RU since the beginning, mined the desire of new arrivals to remain.

Today still, this community is pretty close to any new arriving gamer, that will often come, see, and leave.

Not to repeat myself, but the continuous moaning that characterize this forum does help in this sense as well. Gratz..
Advertisements guys ... there are no advertisements ANYWHERE online, all I see is crappy games advertisements, while this is not spammed on the websites I visit.
I myself came here by seeing an advt. a little advt. can get a lot of players.
This topic is long since last update and considered obsolete for further discussions.
