    Alright so, back then, in 2014 before andrew resigned as owner, if I have my ECC history correct, the upper right thingy on the forums looked like this:


    I'm suggesting to change our current one back to this - I believe this one is better and is more appealing to new users. We still have all of these, facebook, steam group, youtube channel, twitch channel, IRC chat and TS, but we only just mention the MC server and TS server - we should be mentioning all of these services, as it shows the numerous services ECC has to provide to the community.

    We should also create another "Why Choose ECC" thread or copy the old one (You may click here to see the old one.) - it's a very nice thread that details what makes ECC a great Server, and we should add that again.

    Anyway, thanks for reading. :)

    Apart from twitter, none of those are really active.
    IRC isn't really needed, the shoutbox does the same for the Server that IRC used to.
    Steam group is nearly 100% dead.
    YouTube and twitch are used only very rarely.
    Facebook is simply a slower version of Twitter.

    In my personal opinion it looks better without them as they are simply not active enough to be appealing to the new player.

    I guess you do have a point with the IRC chat, but if that was the case, why was IRC there before?
    Just because the steam group is dead doesn't mean it can't be revived :p Just look, there are currently 56 steam users online in the group.
    I've made suggestions to start using youtube and twitch more often. We should start using the youtube channel and twitch channel to make and stream videos promoting ECC - something countless other servers have done.
    Facebook is still used and we're currently doing an avatar or whatever competition for it.

    Because andrew wanted it. And it's now not used any more because andrew didn't want it any more.

    Most people in that steam group don't even play ECC any more.

    That requires quality, and someone who can provide quality costs money. (You won't find any professional quality people who will do it for free. Not something that eats up so much time, at least)

    This can actually be locked. I have another thing in mind. ;)
