This topic is about developing the community further, and I could not resist using this quote as a good way of starting it all.
Yea it's really interesting actually, you can see what kind of people the server has now that this isn't being immediately shot down, let alone the fact that people are actually supporting it.

Here's the big difference between now and then -
the new leader stab is open for discussion, gives feedback and treats people equal. It doesn't matter "what kind of guy" you are - everyone is met with respect and your ideas are being discussed in a proper and mature way. And honestly, I never thought this would happen, I never thought Argonath would be that wide open, friendly and moderately fair in every situation where ideas or general discussion is taking place. "The kind of people" who's still around are the ones having a big heart for this community.
Let us not forget that. After being left outside for nearly a decade because another opinion is being discussed, it has finally been brought to the table and it's finally being firmly listened to. Placing people into groups is not the way to go and has never been.
I'm truly happy for this tremendous and positive trend. Because I truly believe that we can re-establish Argonath once again, otherwise I wouldn't even be here right now.
For me, it's important that we keep being open, keep being creative and we develop after what is popular and fashionable today, not being stuck in the past, claiming that every change will be a mistake and kill the "vision".

I'm not being disrespectful to our past, not at all. But it's about time we do things right, it's about time we adapt Argonath to
2015. It's about time we do some radical changes (some are already on its way) and it's about time we remain positive. We do not have an active player base and we the things we do today is not "as fun" as it were in the past.
WHAT DO WE NEED?ROLEPLAYThe last time I've been online - I've not had a single roleplay situation. People from different groups has been cruising around in their Sultans, Infernus or whatever bike model you decide to use and none of them were interacting at all. Step this up, guys!
GANGSWe need more gangs! We got Willowfield, Jefferson, El Corona and other places being miserably empty because of the lack of gangs, factions and general interaction.
I frankly reach out to all veterans who's still around - make a group. Show everyone how it's done. We need you the most now.
BE UNIQUE. That's what brings a broader member list and often widens your quality.
CREATIVITYUntil the drug script is being finished, until the changes has been placed in game - it's about time that we step up our creativity, do not do the stereotypic kidnaps and pretty shitty robberies, widen your view and let's do it together to make Argonath a living place again.
These are the top three categories we need to fill in right now, because it's lacking enormously. Roleplay
SHOULD NOT even be lacking on a roleplay server. With the ARPD already being worked on, it's up to us criminals and civilians to show what we're made of. Let us make Argonath a better place.
TOGETHER You are free to give your input of what you'd like to do better, and I will add it to the topic.
