Hi guys,

I'm the new UK community manager and I'll be looking after Settlers in the future with some other games. How are things on here? What can we do to make it better for you? http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Hi Razz! http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Things are not going on at their best here, as you may have noticed. The English Ubi forums have been lacking a community manager for about 3 years now. The general mood is a very sceptical one about how people will be treated here in the future. You will have to catch up with the negligence of your predecessors.

What can you do to make it better?

At first, be here often. We don't expect miracles, it will be OK for a start if people see that you are here and are ready to talk and to reply to questions.

What people want most at the moment are informations about Settlers 5 (a frequently updated Settlers 5 page by Ubi, with the same new screenshots and infos that the german community has)

The old Settlers forum (still active) will provide you with a lot of information of what has happened in the past.

Are you a Settlers player yourself?

Hi Razz and welcome.
As Nucleus said above,things on this forum are at the moment full of resentment and negative feelings.Resentment of the fact we are the losers in this community,a bit like mushrooms left in the dark and fed ****,and negative because we have now had 2 other CM`s assigned to us recently,who "took a back seat",when in actual fact they did nothing.The mods on here have been left to help the best way we can,for almost 3 years.
Hopefully now thats all about to change,we have high hopes of youhttp://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif not to put you under pressure of course hehe
Having said all that we are a friendly lot really.

Well this will be interesting I have a problem logging into game server. Can log into bbgc but get an error logging in properly to play. I have emailed ubiandi over this and had no responce what so ever. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif Has been like this for 5 days now.. I must add that ubiandi was amazingly fast to respond to an email I sent over reaigning as a Settlers4 moderator but that is the only email I have ever had any responce from at all and that is the reason for my resignation If we cant get support why should we support ubi???

[megg]

Geta, I know that it was very frustrating for you, but to say that no one was helping is not quite right.

Glenelg had sent emails on your behalf, to try to sort out the problem for you. Perhaps you did not give it enough time while you were waiting for a response.

Penny had also mentioned to you that she knew of another player who had a similiar problem, which righted itself.

Hi UBI razz.
It's great to see a new face again. As the others said we are ready for some changes aroud here. How about linking this forum to the BBGC.

[megg]

That would be good Mike, unless we lost the link to the old one, as there is so much info there. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[andrewdodd13]

hi ubirazz!

it would also be nice if we had areas for S4 and S5 separate, and maybe an off-topic forum for stuff such as football...

also, would someone mind posting my hint for changing the tabs on the old forum? i cant get into it anymore...

No trees were killed in the creation of this message.

PS. You dont like me just because the voices talk to me and not you!

[pennyuk]

I have already asked for an off topic board.
Ideally we also need a board as the germans have for S3 problems,ours is just messy,everything been posted on one forum.Would be handy if it was possible to add the old forum to it as well,its a hive of info,that needs to be archived for players to look at.

MEGG Sorry megg dont agree with you I have emailed andi over this prob and not even got a peply to email. He could at least say he is looking into it. I have sent a number of emails to ubi staff over the years and the only answer I have had from any was the one the other day when I resigned as moderator and even now they still have done nothing except stop me accessing mods forum http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif.. Now how would a person go if had same prob as me.. Not being able to logg into lobby with there serial nick and no alias?? Cant cr8 alias... cant find forums if not saved into favourites... so only thing is to go try find another s4 game from shop to get a new serial.. IT SUX big time..

[pennyuk]

As long as you can use your nick and password you dont have a problem in creating an alias,as I showed you earlier.Its better to use your browser to make one,if your logged into BBGC it just logs you out all the time anyway.

Hi guys,

You're more than welcome to talk about "off-topic" things in this forum, it's fairly quiet after all, and if it starts being a problem we can create new forums to deal with that. I'm hoping to be around quite a lot though http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[dj_mike89]

That's great news.
Will you also come in and chat from time to time then??

Oh yes... we'where promissed a whole new settlers homepage. Is that comming any time soon?

[UbiRazz]

I'll ask around about the new website but I've not heard anything so it's probably a while off yet.

I'm around during the week so I'll try to pop in daily http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[megg]

Did you have any thoughts on linking the old ubi forum to here, so that the info on that forum is easier to access for people looking for help.

This was mentioned earlier. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[UbiRazz]

I'm happy to have a list of links at the top of the forum or something, just give me a list http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Ok, I'm away until Thursday so you'll have to wait until then for any changes http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

http://www.siedler-portal.de/index.php

This is the website for the sp and mp liga competitions

Do we need to have a list of websites at the top of the forum,why not just make a sticky thread and let people post the fan sites etc on there?

All done, some nice links at the top. If you want any more up there let me know http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[dj_mike89]

I know you allready said you found it unnecessary to make more forums but could you at least make a tech forum, we had that in the old one as well, and we need it very much.

oh. I just found something else for the forum: we have no option to go straight for the second page in long topics, can you make that?
