Emps-World basically lacks a person who'd take care of the community. There's no one focusing on ANY kind of advertising whatsoever (Except for that unknown-to-almost-all voting link Charr posted above). Someone should definitely look into a person who'd work on advertising - advertising doesn't necessarily have to be costly. There are tens of RSPS communities out there which allow you to simply post your "thread" on the advertising section which DOES in fact get quite a lot of views on a monthly basis. Emps-World would definitely stick out from those PI and Matrix based sources which are almost all the same due to the immense amount of core-work, client-related updates and cache updates.
Regarding the previous statements about voting rewards "ruining" the economy. There is not that much to ruin - if you look at the economy right now, it's not in a good state at all. There's an overflow of items, a BIG overflow of cash (Where the hell have people gotten tens if not hundreds of billions of cash into the economy within just a few years, it's ridiculous). But that's irrelevant right now - who said you necessarily had to put rewards which could affect the economy? It's always possible to add untradable rewards (Perhaps degradable as well) which would affect the economy very little.
But seriously, you're missing a lead person for advertisement-related things. The reason I suggest this is because Thomy has done his part. Provided an enjoyable game - we should return the favour and get the game out there. Because frankly, if you ask anyone on any RSPS related community, you're not going to find many people who've heard of emps regardless of the fame it had in the past.
I've got so much to say but cannot find the right words for it.. The economy is one of the biggest issues around here though in my personal opinion - as a person who just a few days ago returned back into Emps-World. There is no fix for economy once it has gone bad. I believe the main reason it went shit this quick is due to the preserved accounts from the past. Now there's no way to recover the economy. Also, what's up with the experience rates? I haven't "tested" them but I feel like they're MUCH higher than they used to be. I'm getting millions of experience daily from just bossing - I can't recall getting this much experience in the past from bossing..?
