Last night I spoke of some ideas I wanted to discuss with everyone on how to give a little kick-start to Sleuth. I would like to share these now and hear feedback. These things are not required of the Admin, but things we can do as a community to try to get things flowing again.
NOTE: Please do not bring up the development team. That ship has come and gone. This post is aimed purely at community-oriented initiatives, not changing the game itself.
Also, I would like to note that many players have been doing some really good things around here. The contests for free subs, ctown's radio show, AVH matches. I do not mean to discredit any of this. It's all wonderful. I just think we can do a little more :-)
#1 Advertising - Let's get out there and spread the word. This is a great little gem that we have found and there are probably others that would love it as much as we do. Do you belong to another internet site? A Group for Nail-Biters with Herpes? Post on the message board about Sleuth! (well maybe not that, but you get my meaning) Let others know outside of Sleuth what a great place this is. I would especially target (for Noir) adults who enjoy logic-type puzzles. That is what kept me addicted to this game for so long.

Completely get that Lolita, and am not adverse to the thought, and if we ever have a sponsors board, or initiate a similar idea (supported by Admin) I'll stop deleting those kind of posts. I delete them not just 'cause it's begging, but mainly because of the general response it elicits form other players. It's a bad add all 'round.

Well the Sponsors Board on the other site was accessed through the subscription page and being a dedicated board those who chose not to go there didn't have to. Only people with the giving spirit had need to visit and see those kinds of posts so..........

2 ideas for Sleuth Noir.
1 - Letters after your name if you have written a scripted mystery, like when you complete a degree you getter to tag BSc onto your name, so maybe a Bachelor of Sleuth criminology award for someone who has taken the time and effort to add to the games content.
2 - Picture frames available in apartments where you can download a picture that can be viewed by your guests... maybe you could add a similar feature to agencies, like a hall of fame, when a player's avatar could be saved for posterity. Something to spend $'s on that could actually help personalise our experience more.
