We're looking for the video to be somewhere from 6-8 minutes long, and plan for it to be on the RuneScape Youtube as well as stickied on a busy forum, probably general. This will be an instructional guide to send newcomers to, or for those who wish to know more about the forums.

lol.

tips and tricks:

Put your thread in general even if there are more appropriate sections.

The CM Team want forumers to see the video easily rather than hide it away in a forum that doesn't get much attention. After a few weeks, the thread might be moved to a community forum such as this one.

The video is more for new forumers I thought? If it is going on Youtube then they should be direct linked to the thread here same with a news post direct link to the thread here. Reinforce the point this is where you should go for everything community related. Not reinforce the everything in general opinion.

Yes, and the place where new forumers go is general, to find one of the busiest forums. We're meeting the target audience, then :)

It will be highlighted in a Community Chronicle newspost, but newcomers aren't likely to be looking for an instructional guide, they're looking to post. The hope is that this will catch their attention before they create new threads in the wrong places, etc.

Lead by example.

The views the vid will be getting will mostly be coming from the main page and youtube I'd have thought, and not people already on the forums.

Rather than encouraging people to use general more I'd have thought putting it here would force them to at least browse a list of sections.

Once the news post is buried and the video not listed as new or whatever I take it you intend to keep it in general?
