Ugh. It's excel in space, images won't help at all in attracting people.
Would you be interested in blue screen with bunch of captions, same-color circles and lines?
That's what average people see in Aurora (well, tables too), and unless you can convince them to try it with cool or !!FUN!! stories, images won't do good.

And even if you can, it's better to concentrate game's small playerbase in one place, rather then spread out on several resources. The fact that this forum now has pseudo-wiki (forbidden to guests, unfortunately), two gallery sections, several fanfic subforums, and is generally a nice place to hang out, does help.
For that, I meant stories. But you're right, there's not much use for it. Should I delete it?

It is accessible to guests. Sorry, my mistake, for some reason I thought I can't get in when I'm logged out.

I know, but in addition to those. And maybe it could help get other people into aurora.

What makes you think that there will be a Vice-President ;)?
Damn, palu, you were faster.

On topic, I really don't think it's necessary. Who uses g+ anyway, and who would use it over this forum when it comes to discussion of Aurora?

We talk about Aurora a lot over in the reagent shop in Moonglow on Ultima Online's Chesepeake shard.

...

Okay, I meant that as a joke. But I just Googled it and...holy crap. Ultima Online still exists?

Yep. And I've got some friends that still log in and play it...

Facebook, Google+, Reddit. How long until diligent fans sponsor a local discussion club in my city? Would it have like a President, a Vice-President, and no more members?
