One thing that might help private worlds recruit would be for WIS/HBD to list the private worlds that have empty slots with the commissioners name, much like they list the public worlds.  Since the password would still be needed to join the private world, a statement to contact the commissioner would be appropriate.  Right now the only private worlds an owner sees are the unfilled worlds he is a member of (and giving a withdrawl option).  The 10 other private worlds that are recruiting are "invisible" unless you already have the password.  This may not seem like much but for newer owners who do not use the forums and/or are intimidated by them this would be a way for prospective owners to get a feel for all the slots available, not just those in the "public" worlds.

Thumbs up to this suggestion.  As a commish of 2 private worlds, I think this would be a great add.

Awesome suggestion.

Best. Idea. Ever.
Should be implemented IMMEDIATELY.

Great idea. Especially if prospective owners were allowed to view these worlds to check out which teams are available, which owners are members and what previous standings have been.

Sure.

out of curiosity - do any of these suggestions every get actted on or commented on by "Administration"?

The only comment I've ever seen from admin is "this will never happen".  It also says that site staff monitor this area on a weekly basis.  Well, it's been a week, and this seems like a popular suggestion, but there has been no response from site staff.  I even told them to look here in a ticket!

I give it plus 1.

Excellent idea

Ease off. Its not like they're going to read here, see a good idea (which this is), and immediately implement it. They do software releases on a schedule (and not just HBD changes... they obviously have several other games too).

This is so painfully obviously needed in HBD, I'm sure it'll be part of their next release. Maybe in a week. Maybe in a month. Maybe in 3 months. But it'll get done.
