$$'s are precious in this world as we all know! So in efforts of making best use of funds, I'd like to know everyone's thoughts on converting our AoC website to a Darkfall website to save a bit of time and most of all some cash. Our AoC branch was teaming with players in it's hayday, even boasting 109 players on vent simultaneously on AoC's opening day. Sadly however, I think AoC has seen the last of those days of grandeur .
The hosting for the individual website space alone through guildportal is dirt cheap ( $5 per month, per website) But all the little extras that makes a website a website and separates the men from the boys adds up. Each website with all the bells and whistles runs around $35-$35+ per month depending on bandwith used. We've tried to combine the website into "one website to rule them all", but we've found it just doesn't flow nearly as well as our main MMO's having their own space.
So in efforts to relieve some of the cost burden of a 5th website (our SWTOR is still in development) - does anyone have any objections to the conversion of our AoC website to that of a Darkfall site?
Edit: Note* this is not a thread to sever the AoC branch, the forums will remain here and intact as always. (more on this in my post later in this thread)
