Vote for a new LP.net news admin

Depending on the thread or blog, we can see that there are several active people on LP.net. That being said, when it comes to news admins who update the front page, we don't have anyone who is doing that anymore (Defrag hasn't updated the front page since February 2020, and I'm legit worried about him since that was around the time Covid started spreading and I hope he wasn't one of the small group of people who got sick and/or died).

Anyway, while I don't play poker anymore, I am willing to update the front page here and there with poker news, and there is at least one other person here who would likely be interested in updating the front page at least once a week. I think two part-time news contributors would be good, and would help make LP.net feel less dead.

Do any of you have any interest in updating the front page of LP.net 2-3 times per month with poker news? Seems like there's plenty of things to post about now that there are several live tournaments and live cash games available game.

BTW, I sent Nazgul a message on Skype a few weeks ago, but I don't think he ever saw it. If any of you still speak to him, let him know about this thread.

LP will never cease to exist. lol

I vote Trump!!!!

Neilly or lostaccount

I like the idea LP

I can probably get ths done for you PuertoRican, wait a couple of days.

neillyAA. he represents the heart and soul of LP.

To me LP is the true Teamliquid. I'd be glad to get any news at all. Even if the news aren't written by NeillyAA I want news about him. He never gave up.

Good idea

i love to be an admin and have a ban hammer

Let's have a liquidpoker.net weekly/monthly podcast having random ppl on that aren't necessarily famous in poker but are just active here lol. I think this would be highly entertaining and definitely make lp "seem less dead"

No idea who the hosts would be.

Potential guests:
Nelly
Stroggoz
Whamm shrimp farm
Etc

What he said. Thanks for bringing up this initiative puerto, I'm happy to know I'm not the only one who has shook my head more than a few times at the state of the news section updates.

podcast idea sounds neat too haha - I'd totally listen about the trials and tribulations of an LP shrimp farmer

What happened to that RTS game by GRRR and Everlast "Epsilon Conflict" I've been waiting forever

I would like to nominate Loco

we don't allow CCP affililated media here lol

Good on ya PR like the idea as welll

I'm not sure how much people care about random news on the front page. Maybe time is better spent creating new topics / threads

Some more ways to save lp:

Public Discord for everyone on LP not just small circles of people/cliques (This link should be stickied somewhere and should be easy to find for everyone including some new person to LP lol)
Try to keep content more 80% poker related 20% other life stuff instead of before (not trying to start beef with rikd but this will actually help lp).
Collectively we all start to blog more
Good Cash game online/live players start posting hands more
People start letting go of beefs to a large extent

I'd be down for lp discord group.

I vaguely remember that back in the days. I think GRRR plays or played quite a bit of poker but frankly I can't wait for a new RTS. Brood war is still the best IMO but the control annoys me a bit. I'm looking forward to frost giant even tho thats probably a few years forward.

+1 for discord chat and the podcast idea

surprised so many people still here lol

aight

let's get some polk vs dnegs news going then

The SSL certificate of the website is out I'm guessing people are wondering why they get the 'this site is unsafe' message when they load it

they just come out whenever LP has discussions about disappearing for good haha

Alright fellas, I was recently granted the right to post news, so I will start doing that once I return from Vegas on December 23.

If you guys have any suggestions of poker-related stuff you want to see on the front page, post it here.

So far, someone suggested a Discord post (I'll try to do that tonight), and I am working on an article that I will finish when I get home from vacation.
