Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

KRSplat · Mar 17, 2002, 06:39 AM

Many n00bs can't find the JJ2 community easily. There are links to dead websites on www.jazzjackrabbit.com . Why not register an old website domain (say, www.jazz2city.com) and have a message telling whoever to go to www.jazz2online.com?

~SPLASH~ · Mar 17, 2002, 06:49 AM

How about creating a j2o tileset, or place j2o link text signs in all of our levels?

(Rethought: Do we really want a bunch of n00bs that are too lazy to search for a JJ2 website?)

HipHopGirl · Mar 17, 2002, 10:57 AM

goood idea!

EvilMike · Mar 17, 2002, 10:59 AM

It's nearly impossible to find J2O on google, which is the most popular search engine. Meta data does almost nothing these days. If you really want your website to appear high on the list of google, you need to pay them.

Newspaz · Mar 17, 2002, 11:05 AM

The only problem is: Dethman keeps the J2C domain occupied.

For things that are to come?

SteelTalon · Mar 17, 2002, 12:33 PM

For the things that won't come.

All Battle Server levels have the URL of BSC is them, and BSC has links to J2O and the JCF.

Kaz · Mar 17, 2002, 08:49 PM

And just exactly how would they find the battle server?

defalcon · Mar 17, 2002, 11:50 PM

Erm, maybe when Monolith has it running and they join.

Well, take a look at some other things that rank high in various search engines.
E.g. the Jazz 2 Webring still ranks high AND is, I believe, accessible. Post a message there.
E.g.2. all the review pages that get listed. Some of them have a "suggest a link" feature. Make use of it!
E.g.3. the official G.O.D. games Jazz 2 page. It has a links section and as far as I know it's still accessible by the admins.

As for Alltheweb.com, it's covered.

(just search for Jazz Jackrabbit and see what comes up in the top 3)

FQuist · Mar 18, 2002, 03:52 AM

Google sorts at popularity, IE, how much links it can find to the website. If every website linked J2O it would rank highest.
Sadly, this also means things like review sites get the highest ranks, because so much people know Gamespot.

Jazz2Online also is on dmoz.org, which is good.. saddly they did not give us a recommendation star. :P
Dmoz.org is supposed to feed Google, but apperently that doesn't work. Probably because the category in which JazzJackrabbit resides is "Jazz Jackrabbit Series" instead of "Jazz Jackrabbit 2"

On a side note, they are asking for an editor at the DMOZ page. If you want to maintain a JJ2 link section on one of the most popular Internet databases...

Last time i tried this to prove iCeD wrong on something it took me an hour of searching through google...webrings>broken links>web rings>old hazes site>web rings>new haz site> search for 10 minutes>jazz2online.

RosetaLopRabbit · Mar 18, 2002, 06:33 AM

if I am not mistaken, there is a link to J2O on Haze's site

~SPLASH~ · Mar 18, 2002, 06:49 AM

I'd say we infest TSF with j2o levels

FQuist · Mar 18, 2002, 09:37 AM

There's nothing stopping you and others.
Tough, the tilesets and levels should not be ugly.

Exactly why I would love to see the webring up again and working properly.

Thus ppl who arrive at one site will also easily find the other ones.

Newspaz · Mar 18, 2002, 12:14 PM

How would new n00bs (I don't think they exist but you never know) play without the serverlist patch?

VeggieMan · Mar 18, 2002, 05:40 PM

n000000000000000000000000000000000000bs!

RosetaLopRabbit · Mar 18, 2002, 05:45 PM

that was before there was a server list patch..

Doh! I thought I was the master of the obvious. I guess I'll have some work to do.

Somebody could e-mail Epic and ask them to put a J2O link on the official JJ2 site. I mean, you can always try!

IMO, the best way for n00bs to enter the JJ2 community is to play JJ2, because that's really where the JJ2 playing community is.

BizarrE aka Raz · Mar 19, 2002, 10:06 AM

Mwoehaha,
We could infest the whole wide web by cracking all sites and all games and put a big text with HTTP://WWW.JAZZ2ONLINE.COM/ so all n00bs must go there and play Jazz2 (what we will not hack).

Ok,
I'll take site 1 to 1000000000
Someone that wants to do site 10000000001 to 2000000000000?

My ideas are good ain't they?

RosetaLopRabbit · Mar 19, 2002, 10:29 AM

thats an idea, could crack/hack all sites without a link to J2O on them..

Link · Mar 19, 2002, 11:34 AM

jazz2city.com is not taken anymore. It is free to register. I suggest someone here registers it before some Jazz music site takes it. You could make it link directly to J2O, or put up a message saying "Jazz 2 City is no more! Visit http://www.jazz2online.com instead."

FQuist · Mar 19, 2002, 11:34 AM

And then everyone thinks we're a group of hackers. ;-P

Who's gonna pay loads of money just for a redirection to J2O..? I think indeed that it's an good idea to register it and link it to J2O, but who's gonna do that..?

Link · Mar 19, 2002, 04:05 PM

The J2O admins!

And seriously, there are places to register domains for like $15 US, which is not very much. (as long as you live in the US)

RosetaLopRabbit · Mar 19, 2002, 04:32 PM

good idea!

Yes, I think it's not too hard to find a website with the URL "www.jazz2online.com". If they are too stupid

to find that URL, I think we don't need them

Well....go down on yer knies and beg one of the admins then

Mystical · Mar 20, 2002, 09:26 AM

We need this!

FQuist · Mar 21, 2002, 06:28 AM

First of all, it's Dethman's property..

Link · Mar 21, 2002, 10:42 AM

The domain name is not owned by him anymore. Go to any whois site and you will see that it is free to register.

I know that this might not be the nicest thing to do (RIP Jazz2City) but it would certainly help get the community more known to new jazzers.

There could be a "tribute" to J2C or Dethman on the page which links to J2O.

Michael · Mar 21, 2002, 11:50 PM

and then we will register the domain together, consider it that your paying for a TV for the poor kid that has a wheel cahir but no food..
OK. I'll collect the money >=)

Unhit · Mar 22, 2002, 01:34 AM

Good idea, also with the money. If you should need me, I'd pay

!

Executor · Mar 23, 2002, 07:23 AM

I'M NOT PAYIN' FOR IT.

Kaz · Mar 23, 2002, 07:54 AM

Okay, just for your common sense, they wouldn't be able to get into the battle server since if they haven't been to j2o they haven't gotten the server list patch and the jj2 program only comes equipped with the jazzjackrabbit.com listserver... therefore they wouldn't be able to see any severs whatsoever unless they were on TSF.
