**NEW** sims 2 series
smudgetaz:
They can see what the genre is in the first 30 seconds of the first episode. I gave them a DIRECT link. And as for promoting, Imade th website which is listed, that has photos, which one of the photos isnt even in the episode. So that's there problem if they know nothing. I'm not repeating the info, cuz i am doing this in different boards as well.
They can still CLICK on the link.. If they lose interest cause it just plain doesnt interest them, that's fine. But to not check it out at all makes no sense. And i am promoting it on youtube with the Adwords but it hasnt verified yet.
And im not stupid on the trailer. I'mjust not making it yet until I have a few episodes up, since I want to use actuall footage, not made up crap like I did in my last series trailer. So they can just simply click the link. its not hard

Theraven is right. Patience is a virtue. Around here, bumping your post just to keep up at the top isn't permitted.
Give people a teaser; something to make them want to check out your site instead of just ignoring it. For example, would you buy a book giving you no info blurb on the back or inside cover? I wouldn't. What's the series about? "You could also make your site url in your first post into a hyper link, so people can click on it without having to google it or do a copy/paste. Believe me, my years of administrating/moderating Sims sites has taught me people, for whatever reason, just can't do either.
If people are going to look and comment, it will be because they want to, not because you want them to. Calling them "pathetic" really isn't going to encourage anyone to do you favours. You have to make them want to check it out. It doesn't matter if they can tell what genre it is just by watching it, or if they can see what it's about just by watching. People aren't going to watch just because you say "watch". They're going to watch because you've given them a good reason to. Is it an epic fantasy? A thrilling murder mystery? A hair-raising thriller? Tell us. What is it about? You can let us know this without giving the plot away.
If you look at the other threads, you'll see all them give a little something about what to expect if they watch the videos linked to. Give us a reason to click your link, other than because you want us to.

AND, if you don't mind, watch your language around here and stop being a drama llama. Honestly, next thing you'll do is post a secret about yourself and your series on LJ just to get some attention so you'll think you're the awesome. Attitudes like that we do not need. Some of us have lives outside of the monitor, ya know.
Another thing that isn't hard is using correct spelling, capitalization and punctuation. Calling people names isn't going to get them to watch your story, if anything it's going to turn them off and avoid your series. You want to be recognized for well-done storytelling? Then do it with understated elegance and good descriptions of some of the things they'll be seeing. The better you outline them and prepare them for something they'll enjoy, the better your viewing audience will expand. Trashtalking a potential audience will more than likely get your stuff ignored or even a boycott because of the way you treated potential viewers.

"Bumping up just to keep at the top isnt permitted" GEEZ, THATS NOT WHY I DID IT SO BACK OFF. don't be making assumptions.
And as for the "Hyperlinking" comment, yea at the moment it was really late and I forgot to hyperlink it. And really didnt care to change it, cuz people can move their fingers to and copy and paste, it won kill them. If not, whatever.
Drama llama?lol. wow. i dont ever remember llamas being dramatic. and neither do i. frustrated maybe. annoyed too, but you guys are making the drama. YOU took the time to make the big deal out it.
And just a warning, since you want to continue ruffling my feathers and since you do not know me, I am born to argue, and will not stop until i win. So its your choice if you want to keep going on at th.is.
I was just ranting on my second post cuz it didn't make any sense. Neither of you really needed to comment. You coulve just ignored it, cuz there really wasnt a need to respond. Maybe you've just learned something :D that when someones already angry/annoyed at something and you comment on it, you're not gonna get a nice calm reply. I never see someone in life be all flustered up and someone coming up to them saying "calm down" and them actually calm down. No, they're gonna get more mad and tell them "Don't you tell me to calm down!." that only works when they're just a tiny bit annoyed; when it starts.
And tough pickle, get over it. you dont have to read any of this bad grammer. Not asking you to. so suck it up, your the one who is choosing to read this.
Theraven:
No, you did not bump it up - you posted another topic to bash at the members who did not view your video. That's worse.
We might not know you personally, but having been moderators of this site for a while, I think I speak for all of us when I say we've had our share of bashing trolls. So if you don't want a locked topic or a perma-ban, I suggest you cut off the snappy attitude right here and now. Consider yourself warned.
(Actually, Llamas tend to spit if they're not happy, and apparently have quite the dramatic fights. And no one likes being spitted at, especially not moderators).
