gorlab 4,321 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 jk but i got a big brain idea for both my own purposes and potential other member's future purposes As I was high af making a graphic last night, I realized I had never posted anything I uploaded to imgur publicly (aka viewable by their community/users). I decided for a laugh that I would start uploading all my sigs publicly and writing 'vhlforum.com' in the title/description, so down the road when random imgur users would comment funny stuff I could share it with the community. then it dawned on me..... we should make a portal page like vhlportal.com/new or vhlportal.com/join where it's a very brief description of what VHL is, and a big blue button that says 'START YOUR CAREER' or 'CREATE A PLAYER' (something that isn't hidden to a first-time viewer who currently needs to click on 'MANAGE PLAYER > CREATE PLAYER' and vhlportal.com just directs to the "NEWS" aka VSN page, which a new VIEWER would be confused about wtf is going on. so that's it.... that's the idea. tl;dr make a page on vhlportal.com domain that has a brief description about the VHL, maybe a flashy graphic, and a very direct route to creating a player.... something that could potentially catch a person who simply goes to a URL that they saw on imgur or whatever other platform people want to spam the url on.

Banackock 8,050 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Here an idea: How about an area to view all graphics? Or the leagues best graphics? Would be a cool feature to scroll through for all members and a nice little memorial archive for players etc. Whenever a graphic is posted, magically the graphic goes in a section on the portal? Or again only the best of the best? huh huh?

dlamb 1,326 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Yes, agree 100%. The confusion on how to start scared me off originally before I was recruited back, but maybe thats just me. gorlab and Jayrad28 2 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/91795-gorlab-commish-application/#findComment-782103 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gustav 6,425 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I really like this idea if we agree that all exposure is good exposure. Mind you, I'm absolutely for it, but maybe the league shouldn't promote it as a convenient link that you can just drop anywhere--most people would be sensible with it, but we'd always get people who think it's a good idea to blow up some other community with spam links about our league. gorlab 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/91795-gorlab-commish-application/#findComment-782138 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorlab 4,321 Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 fair point gustav, i considered whether having the scum that is the imgur community have exposure to vhl is a good or bad thing as well...

I don't think it would be bad in the case that you're suggesting. It's just a bad look if someone joins the SHL discord or something and just starts spamming the link everywhere.

STZ 5,360 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Didn't @boubabidesign an interactive landing page back in the day?

Sure, but a link to the forum isn't being specifically marketed as something one can go elsewhere and drop in on their own time. I highly doubt we'd have any actual serious issues if we end up doing that with a portal page, but it was something that came to mind and I wouldn't be surprised if some mild trouble popped up at some point.
