Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! @nidza07Thanks for the clarification there.@marroQuoting in part what I said in the 27th post:"Even that platform is more active (even if the English part needs to grow a bit more.)" At least on the North American side of things, it's indeed small for both Elten and Quentin C. But yes indeed, QC is more of a gaming platform first, chatting second.

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! While QC exists, it's really more a gaming platform and not a true social network. The forum is primarily for game related suggestion and occasional off topic chat, and there are no profiles or too many social features. Perhaps this will change one day, but for now, unless all you need is basic chat, I would not compare this to QC.

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! @27 qc not active is an insult to the program, especially the english part. there are usually more then 150 active users connected during the day, 24 hours, so from everywhere there is enough activity i nmy opinion. Besides it's free and doesn't go paywall URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/571082/#p571082 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! Honestly, Elten seems to be more popular on the Europe/Asia continents.Not to bring up Quentin C's Playroom, but even that platform is more active (even if the English part needs to grow a bit more.) At least, they got free tables for chatting, and the web site mirrors the Windows client.

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! @QueenslightHow many of those users are actually active though? As in they post at least once every couple weeks.And thank you for clearing up the pricing, I was hoping that was annual and not monthly; this makes the price allot less shocking, but locking so many standard features behind a paywall (even those that likely don't put extra strain on the server) is still kind of insulting.If there was a major commitment to improving moderation and adding/improving some basic forum features that should already exist, that would be one thing, but there isn't.I never even understood why this program was taken outside of the Polish seniors market, since that's who it was meant for. They clearly weren't ready for a larger audience and still aren't years later.

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! I am literarely only on elten these days because i was there since like 2017. I unfortunately have to say that the dev is right now driving it against the wall with much force. He splits the whole elten into different packs that you theen have to download. He ignores his own users (i am locked out of my account for almost 1 and a half years now). The main admin named railwayguy performs actions without asking the rest of the team and blocks banned people in pm if they ask him for a reason, removes topics so you can not see what happened and that the situations where not banworthy, and bases half off the ban statement on the age of a user. Then, like 50 percent of the premium features where free before, besides paying for soundthemes for downloading that you haven't even contributed in the slightest at most part, the correction doesn't make it better. Do i have to say more?

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! So, as of the 13th of September 2020, the Elten Network has 1385 users (in total since 2014. Elten does have Badges/achievements now, which may help with mre activity in the forums.I should note by the way, there has been no drama on Elten these days. Yes, crazy to understand I'm sure.I did mention also in the forum, that many English folks do not say "Annually" when it comes to a price which you pay for a year. We say "yearly" instead. Judging by what folks are saying so far with the news I shared (even with the 6.65 yearly plan), it'd still be a hard sell, simply because each plan is too little for what ya get in most of them. I also would like to share something about Sound Themes that David shared earlier today in part, to clear that up too:"I don't want users to buy soundthemes, but only downloading of soundthemes from the server will be a premium feature.You always can send your soundtheme to other users in a PM, mail or publish it somewhere."I compared things to Windows Mobile and it's lack of apps, while David compared things to iOS and you still needing to pay for a dev accunt to have your apps in the App Store (even if they are free apps.)

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! I personally find Eltin to be a slow, inefficient, and feature lacking mess with terrible English moderation.The sounds and extra gimmicks are pretty cool for the first 15 minutes, until you realize that the actual social network part is not very well done.It's also pretty empty compared to places like r/blind or audiogames.net, so I really don't see the point in using it.If you like it and you aren't over 50 years old, that's fine even if I don't really understand why, but I would personally never pay for such an underwhelming product.

Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming!
Re: Elten Network -- Big Update Incoming! Yeah, I don't necessarily think they're offering too little for premium, but if they're going to go with a premium model they might as well be offering too much for free. I for one would pay to support, but many folks appreciate the 2 minute voice message limit - God forbid this become another Vorail for crying out loud. This might have to be a hard-sell for folks unless they have blogs, in which case the benefits are pretty significant. Bookmarks in threads is a nice approach. And the prices, especially considering they're annual, are extremely reasonable.
