Advertise the Community In-Game?

[regen2k9]

Just a simple suggestion.  I feel that many people here didn't find out about the community until they had been playing the game for a while, and another player or friend told them, be it through Kong, pvp, RL, etc.  In order to make the community more accessible to players, what if we put a short sentence like "Visit us at www.elementscommunity.org" on the intro/loading screen OR in the main lobby?

Directly underneath the game is a list of
Elements Forum
Elements Wiki
etc.

Problem with that: Majority [?] of players come from Kongregate.  They don't get that access off the bat.

Exactly.  I meant something in-game so that if it's hosted somewhere else (I imagine that other sites besides kong have it [?]) we can still get new players.  If they play on elementsthegame.com they pretty much already know about the community.

Ah... I get you now. And yes, elements is hosted on other sites besides kong (that's how I found it). Maybe just a little note underneath the sign-in page?

^ This.

Ya, I tell new players when I meet up with them in PvP. An in game link or note or something would be really helpful for them I think.

Seconded. This is the official forum, it would makes sense to link people here.

I think the forums are almost a part of the Elements experience if you wish. Without the forums, a lot of people would have quit the game, me included. I see no reason why there shouldn't be a link in-game to direct players here.

There´s a sticky link list in the kong-forum with the link to game and forum.
Should you ever visit qazzaq123´s profile, you also find it (probability to visit the profile is quite high, because he replies to almost every thread).

However, a more visible link to game and forum would be good.

I agree of advertising this forum to all players. As a lot of people play without even bother to scroll down, even if they do, without realizing the community, they wouldn't even think of clicking the link' elements forum'

I agree to those hyperlinks, but I would also like to add tools lite trainer and deck generator.I would suggest to have them placed on the loading screen or under the import/export button.

I made a topic about that a while ago.

Linking this forum would also (hopefully) stop the traffic going to the old forum by eliminating the need to search for it.
