    Hi all,

    I hope you are all well.

    INB4 you flame on this thread! I know a thread was posted about this already, apologies but my suggestion is kind of different.

    McSic/Dave - Could you e-mail all registered users on forums with all recent updates/patches and releases? This won't get them back on straight away but this will simply suggest that FGunZ has had changes for the good.

    People who already play the game, it could be in our hands to get more players online by spreading word through Skype/Discord or any other social media/messaging service. I'm not saying this is a must but I'm pretty sure if you play the game regularly you will enjoy if there was more players and more rooms?

    Staff team - They have been incredible by making events, making tournaments and all sorts, one suggestion I will have is A LITTLE more professionalism will definitely help. (This is not targeted to anyone but in general)

    I for sure will tell all friends who I played with years ago to come and re-try the server.

    Kind regards,
    Divine

    This.
    I mentioned it somewhere before but was rather lazy to make a specific thread.

    It is really super easy to do yeah.
    And you can grab the e-mails from the fgunz.net accounts for it.

    Using GMail or a (shared) host to send emails would get us blocked in no-time so we'd have to use a dedicated email delivery service. Sending an email to all of our FGunZ and forum users would cost us a few hundred dollars, probably between $200 and $300.
    It's a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready.
    I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything.
    There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now.
    And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.

    Do you reckon it would be worth it?

    I mean out of the 22,000 members if 100 decided to give it a try and 50 stay. I would still think that would be worth it?

    Pretty sure some people wouldnt mind pitching in for the money? Worth a shot right?

    you can use a trial version of office 365 for a month: https://products.office.com/nl-NL/co...SAAEgLC_PD_BwE

    thats 300k recipients you could potentially send a mail to for free


    iirc i have linked this before


    EDIT: you also have a monthly subscription for 10 euro a month, so 10 euro and some effort for 600k recipients
