In regard to high school fliers, I would have to say that many gamers would notice a well designed flier advertising gaming as opposed to a huge poster advertising a university. I know that I’ve barely notice any fliers around this campus or among any other campus but I always manage to notice anything about computer technology, especially in terms of gaming. Based on my personal experience I would say that a colorful advertisement for WCU and the gaming club combined would attract the attention of the crowd we are aiming at.
(how the hell do u spell fliers/flyers?) lol
As for ranking amongst servers, where did the data come from and what is the ratio between the population of people playing cod2 vs CS:S? I mean, you could be ranked 1st out of 200 or 300 out of 20,000. I do understand that COD2 is a popular online game and I think that, if it can stay populated, it should be hosted here for advertising purposes. (And of course being able to kill people with crazy old weapons is always fun).
Beyond that, I believe that the advertisement of the WCU Gaming Club in order to recruit students to this university should be done in all areas and it can’t be decided how effective this recruitment is until we actually start stronger advertising.
In response to your comment on arguing, I believe that arguing is a part of making a decision. Obviously flaming is an ineffective form of arguing. This doesn’t mean that I condone out right yelling at eachother or blasting another person repeatedly with harsh language. We are a free thinking and public organization. As such, I would say that discussing/arguing on these forums, without flaming, gives people an idea of how we work and it lets people know that we aren’t being fake. Lets face it, every organization has it’s heated discussions, and I believe it to be true that it is better to show everyone the face value of a story rather than pretend nothing happend. In regard to public heated discussion or ‘arguing’ on this forum, I think it is important for the public to see who we as an organization are and not who we pretend to be.
Just a few thoughts.
