[quote=saudor]wow 4 branches and half of the spots in them are open *unsure*[/quote] C'mon D, not all of us can have our malls full like mine and yours. Maybe its a question of dedication and loyalty as to why we have ours always full. Chad's Bakery http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=desperately_yours

That may play a part but I say it's more of scraping too little butter on too much bread.

Hmm... Id also really say that a lot of people have gotten frozen for using neomallers lately... or rather because of that hack... so a lot of our members got frozen as well... ...anyways... the way I see it... this is a game... Im here to have fun, not to hunt for members all day long. The members that are part of the mall, seem to be happy about it... and so what if spots arent filled? We dont have NB ads that people have to pay... so we take the people that are interested... and those that find themselves too good for us... so what? ...Since when does a mall HAVE to be full? ------- Wearables and Backgrounds: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=_always_lonely_ :D

haha so says the mall leader that tried to recruit members directly from my mall *yarr* And if any users were broken into as a result of a hacking, they should have read the reg page instructions on sign up, which really doesnt have to be there since it's common sense.

We really don't need any bickering back and forth about the subject. This is a game and it really shouldn't result in petty arguments. What happens in one mall doesn't effect another mall. The argument doesn't need to be made, and therefore I'd rather not see it made and started into something huge and unnecessary. Yes things would be better if the spot stays fill - but they aren't and we are trying our best to recruit. I'm happy in the mall and would love to see more members, but I'm not going to complain and ask to be belittled over it. And its great that your malls are doing wonderful - but your malls are also more well known which helps a lot. We are still building who we are, and trying to get new members to do better with shop views therefore we will start being known more. Until then I wish all the malls the best of luck. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=evilbluemunkeyz

It was a simple advice but ok. Almost every mall that expands without achieving stability in its main mall has bit the dust. Fountain Mall and cosmic marketplace fell when they expanded. There's a bunch of single main malls out there as well and are also starting to weaken too. (non main market sizes in spots like collectables, books, etc) Matter of time before the other members in the mall get fed up) I believe I warned a main market mall leader about this as well an year ago or so. He didnt listen and blocked me. Where is his mall right now? Gone. Was quite interesting to watch his mall fall apart one by one, following the exact same patterns as of the other malls that died. Just saying since once someone screws up a mall, it's gonna be hard to rebuild it since people do remember.

Before you expand a mall, make damn sure you've got at least one branch set and secure. If you expand too quickly, most people get disinterested and end up leaving because of the inability to communicate between themselves and their managers. This is why most malls have disintegrated. I remember a time where you were accepted into a mall if you agreed solely to be with that said mall for the minimum of a year.

They wanted security when they accepted you. They then relaxed and started the rule that if you were to leave, they wanted at least a month advanced notice to fill your spot.
