IRC Ads, Part 1
Coonskin05 \| 1:02 PM on 06.04.2009	20 comments

If you've ever met me, you've probably heard me pitch Unofficial Destructoid IRC to you. Most of you know I am an admin in there, and we have some really good times in there, but recently I was thinking about how to promote IRC and get more new people in there (even though the people that are in there already are amazing) and I thought back to something amazing Niero did a while back. So, piggybacking on Niero's marketing smarts, I present you the first of (Unofficial) Destructoid IRC's new advertising campaign.

LMAO.

Awesome job Coon. Hmmm, gives me an idea.

bushofghosts

YES.

I appreciate the effort, but speaking as someone who is not an IRC participant, these don't make any sense. If you're actually trying to get new people to join you, making ads that feature in-jokes that you have to have been a participant to understand seems counterintuitive. Just my moth-eaten opinion.

Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
