Would you guys read, or even bother to be interested, if i Created a magazine like the S.U.M Magazine on the Silkroad Website, every month for SRF!?
It would not happen any time soon, not even this(April) or the month after that.
But lets say if i made one, with a few other people who would like to help, would you read it?
I don't know what it would contain yet... im like still in the Alpha phase with that idea lol

Well, that would be great idea, but you need to search so hard for it, cause all that you would see in the first place, is flaming and trolling.
Anyways, if you will start it then good luck with it

I'd read it if you keep the crap out. You can feature some of the guides in here per issue, updates, etc. The question is, which parts of SRF would you include?
The OTL alone is like a magazine itself lol.

Its a great idea!! but u will have to do a lot of work, and a lot of searching... u can ask the SRF users what they think about wich content u could show on the magazine! also u can add one of "random screenshots" as the cover of the magazine ^^ or somethg like that ^^ maybe a list of the Exposed Botters of the week xD... ofc leaving the flames apart!
Good luck man.. id totally read it

And what a great magazine it would be
On Topic: Yea, It would be kind of cool but I think the time put into it would be time well wasted after a couple of issues. Because most of the "new" topics that are in GD aren't really new. It's just lazy people being lazy and not moving their mouse to the "Search" button to find what they are looking for.

hmm idk lol If you play your cards right maybe...
Like for every mag you would need at least a 4 page center spread and 8 page Doppleganger section because that's what the people want, that's what the people read.

Well i will at least make 1 issue, see how it goes, if the flames come... let them come ^_^ i need haters to shine
It really wont be a waste of time, i will include some of my artwork or "commercial" in it of phones,cars,etc because i need examples for jobs I am applying for.
So it wont be a total waste. And besides i love digital design.. i enjoy working with photoshop and illustrator.
And my grammar suxs... how much worse could it get ? lol
LMAO, doppel i would love to have you on my team xD

But it says that you're king in your sig. That must mean that you are good.
50 pages, no less! NOW BACK TO WORK FATTY!
10 pages is good enough for me. DON'T write about Venus, or you'll just get lots of spam.

Thank you for the idea's guys keep them coming
A friend of mine already suggested a name for the mag, and i liked it, but im not revealing it... yet! ( Its not Silkroad Online Magazin )
But i think you will like the title, the content..... well that comes some other time.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday its all about Logo/Page design
and some other stuff.
You guys also gave me some idea's about content i should include, but it will be limited because i don't want to spend my life on 1 mag. I do have a deadline...
But i
hope that most of you will be pleased.
I bookmarked this, so keep them suggestions coming

You can put an interview in it... maybe make a vote with 10 ppl and who wins the poll will be interviewed.. or something like that. You can ask that person how he started, 1 great memory, 1 great loss and suff like this about his sro journey...
Or maybe not, depends what people want, but i would love to read it

This is going to suck unless you recruit a real team of writers, artists, and game enthusiasts and EXPERTS and really structure it. You have pretty graphics, whoopy. I predict fail, if you do it on your own and want to do it that way, your just an attention whore, so make a real team and be serious about production for the best result. Who knows, one day you can show this as a SERIOUS example of your publishing and organizational skills when you apply for a job and have a real project you worked on.

I predict negativity. This doesn't have to be done by "EXPERTS" and it doesn't have to be crazy serious.
