You want volunteers, you have to excite them with more details.

I know that, but what details should I say and where should I say them. Should I describe the whole game? Just parts?

Be more specific, what needs doing, what kind of skills you're looking for, what a potential compesation for the work would be etc. etc. Your website doesn't say anything about that.

Now, if you want me to write all this for you, I'd have to charge you a consultancy fee ;)

This beta test is just for fun... Of course I'm not going to pay, I posted it on volenteer section.

Anyway, I would like to thank everyone who has signed up so far, we are doing pretty good. Thanks!

thats really nice. The only real big problem i see with it is that the layout should definetely be improved if you want it to compete with other online RPGs like Outwar, etc. Include some pictures, not all text based. PHP wise, i think its great :D

I know the layout isn't very great, but I'm not that good at making layouts. I will probably work on a better one eventually, but, well, it's not my strength.
