Yes people, the first step to a wonderful project has been taken. After talking to Steve from Tibiacity, we came up with a great plan. He has given me a sub domain on Tibiacity were I will put a devblog.
Whats a devblog? You may ask yourself. Well, its simple, updates about how the development of the project is coming along will be posted in this blog.
The idea is that you guys see how the project is growing and become familiar with it. Also, by the time its ready for launch, there will be a large number of players ready to visit and use the network, that way getting the Supported Tibia Fansite status will be easier.
Also, since the devblog is hosted under the Tibiacity domain, its a place to be trusted, since its already a Supported Tibia Fansite.
Visit the devblog as of today. We will post any updates as soon as possible.
Here is the link to the devlog.
Now, if you are wondering what Tibialog is, here is some info.
As you may know, Ive been administrating this blog for a while now, and when I wrote to Cip about becoming a Supported Tibia Fansite, they told me I need to have a global site, not just a server based one. As quick as I am, I came up with a solution. Why not make a Tibian Blog Network. A place were a News Blog for each server can be created and ran by a team of players from that same server. Not only that, but each blog is connected to one another, just like the way Blogspot or WordPress work.
“But we already have the forums” some may say, or other will say “That has been done, we have Tibia News”. To the first bunch, the answer is easy. Forums are too limited and restricted, for obvious reasons. A blog gives you plenty more freedom when it comes to building a community. To the second bunch, its, well… pretty easy to. Tibia News, while its a great site and very well ran, lacks the man power to cover each server as thoroughly as Tibialog would. When the news are being given by a group of players from that same server, they are delivered faster, more accurately and with much more care.
So there, if you like this idea, help us by telling all your friends about it and supporting the project from day one.
