I was on Minechat today and saw an alertsaying you can advertise servers on Minechat. If you have used Minechat before you might have realized it has promoted/featured server list.It only costs $250 to get a server on the featured server list for a month! This is very cheap if you ask me. Also Lots of Minecraftplayers use Minechat. The next date for an availableslot for advertising is on March 1st 2015. Also only 2 servers are advertised atthe moment so its not like thereare 20 servers advertised orsomething like that. Also EMC needs supporters for things like thisand other in-game things so supportthe Empire please Also for further info go here
I remember raising this to Aikar a few months ago, but I think he said it wasn't very plausible. I can't for the life of me remember why though
The way that works though, is that they list out the server and you can click on it to chat on it. But why in the name of everything would you want to join EMC and just talk in the tutorial..? You can't really do anything on EMC without being on a computer and able to walk around and do things, so really it just makes no sense why you'd want new players to join on their phone and talk when they have no idea wtf is happening.
It isn't really because the traffic that it gets would sort of be worth $250 if only that traffic was able to actually play EMC instead of just log in, chat for a few minutes, and leave. Minechat would just really be a horrible way to get retention members.
Yeah, seems he'd be better off paying to be at the top of all the voting sites we already use. Right now those ads are taken by servers such as "funcraft," "oppvp," and "sexycraft." If they're getting people to join, surely we can pull it off.
