What exact decisions and actions would you propose regarding the simplification of tags?

1st Step:
Total admin control over tags to ensure Cohesion and easy identification of Factions. Ensure a sense of uniformity across the board. Complete cleanse of tags.

2nd Step:
Complete refocus of Target Group aiming to kids and teenagers between the ages of 10 to 15.

3rd Step:
Clean and easy access of Forums that keeps in mind our new Target Group.

4th Step:
Creating the necessary changes to Pennsylvania Sector into a kids playground for the new Target Group. that focuses on grinding, leveling up, team work, learning, activities and challenges with clear objective in MMO Style within the limitations of Discovery and its developers. With the purpose of keeping players online in the sector and server for as long as possible.

5fth Sept:
Making a focal group to introduce the new product to the Target Group, compile and evaluate feedback and apply the changes accordingly to the results given.

6th Step:
Yearly Media Campaign throughout direct outlets targeted to the new Group for around two months basically treating Freelancer and Discovery as a new game. Explaining the dynamics factions in a simple and accessible way. It may include but not compulsory to new, very visual front page, logo and vision presenting the new objectives in a clean easy to read and easy to understand way.



This may sound as something complicated but really isn't. Its just a matter of creating fertile ground for growth cause as things are right now and considering the low numbers of active members. Making rp opportunities more difficult is something Disco can no longer afford. I'll be presenting a complete Proposal later on but I need to investigate further cause II've done Marketing strategies but never about games or MMOs. Its just a matter of checking other successful games and basically mimic their PR tactics cause they probably payed a fortune for it.
