I noticed that on your profile page, just under your name is a little green dot, indicating if you are online and active. Wouldn't be cool if we could go to a page to see all the community members that are online... then you would know who you could chat to, or challenge  & stuff. Also from there you could have links to their profile & active games, so that railbirds like me can spectate if they please. Just a thought...

Option to challenge others would be excellent. There could be a selection of games such as: Chess, Pool, Darts, Connect 4, Scrabble, etc. I think this idea would work best when the forum grows a bit, as right now it's lacking members.

Well, then lets have a competition & get Members to think up ideas of how we can get new Peeps into this amazing community. I've always believed the more the merrier. Also I think there are loads of people who don't know about, or know about the community but don't realize how awesome it is to be part of it & all the wonderful benefits that come with it. I was playing poker on Unibet for ages before I joined the community & I'm so cross that I didn't join before. If I think about everything I missed...( rewards, new global friends, advice, thanx again Bruv, just to mention a few ) :Veryangry: Grrrrr. @PunchFace is another good example. He wrote " Just joined the community, didn't even know this existed till today..... Let's GOOOOOOOO " & I wonder how many other Peeps are out there who are in the same boat that @PunchFace & me were in. What do you think ? Let me know.

What about referring a friend for a small bonus ?  This is bound to bring some new Peeps into the community. I know a lot of other sites are doing it, cause a friend of mine asked me to join a community on another site not so long ago. So I told him I was more than happy... actually over the moon with the Unibet Community & wouldn't change for the world. Also I was thinking, in this window...

p314031650_Unibetwindow.thumb.PNG.1fe4021c0b52734623cbe8b181cf9ae5.PNG

It just says "PLAY OUT MTT LEAGUE" & then " TALK POKER,SPORTS,CASINO AND BETTING " But it doesn't say anything about the benefits of being part of the community. You know... weekly rewards, monthly rewards, competitions & promotions, post of the month, member of the month, new global friends. It also doesn't say anything about the support, help & knowledge you get from being a member of the community. Maybe add some more info, so community members know what they are missing out on, & can join. Maybe even have a slot in the information window at the top of the screen, that informs you of the Butler League &  the Unibet Open Slot, dedicated to the community, with more info about the community so members can see what that are missing out on. 

 Lets have a quick look at Wiki says about the word community 

 A community is commonly considered a social unit (a group of three or more people) who share something in common, such as norms, values, identity, bad beat's and often a sense of place and belonging, & I feel like I belong here & would like other Peeps to feel the same way.* ( edited for humor )

It is a good idea,but as long it will include a bonus (no matter how big or small it's value will be) there will alawys be abuse issues.

It's a different thing to refer to a friend on Unibet site and get a bonus,because that friend has to make a first deposit and so on,but when you refer to a friend for the Community ,where you don't have to deposit money or anything else,trust me,there will be abuse issues.

Some members will just creat fake accounts,or change IP's or whatever,so don't really think it will work out like this.

I totally agree with that. I hated the spam when users tried to reach rank 8 to grab the bonus and forget the community. What my opinion is there won't be radical changes because they focus all the resources to make the new client's lauch easier.

ps: I think that banner isn't good because it tries to promote the whole community and the poker league too and players who aren't interesting to participate in that league could mean that there is another MTT series not other and people who are involved in MTT link couldn't feel the eager to join a league in which they are "forcing" to talk bingo and other stuffs ourside poker. So I think it would be better one banner for the league and another one for the whole community.

Yeah & one for Bingo & one for Betting & one for Live Casino & one for Sports. Or maybe when the community reaches a certain size all the members that brought a friend along gets a small something.

Then maybe not a cash bonus, but something like entry into community freeroll or something like that. Just something to say thank you for helping the community  grow.

And as a matter of fact I think community cost money to Unibet by keeping it working and giving gifts to members every week. If thinking of that sight I think there should not put more free promotions. Refer friends has tested also in other communitys but those are removed in most of places because some people just want to make free money in the system. It is not nice when people see fighting and writing in communitys just to get profit. And I did not mean any Unibet Community member but I have been and I am member of couple of communitys and in every place have same problems with contests and promotions.

Unibet made 351.4£ (Million) in revenue in 2015. An increase by 13.5% from the year prior, and 921,150 customers at the end of 2015, as opposed to 570,360 at the end of 2014.

So they can definitely afford the promotions. The problem with trying to get members with promotions is then we'll have quantity over quality. We want quality members who will engage & not just show up when there's a new promotion.

Maybe some special avatars for community members? We could have a few avatars wearing a hoodie with the words 'Unibet Community' on it. It's very subtle, but it could get people to explore what the 'community' is.

@desinere I agree with most of what you said and it's not nice when communities go through rough patches, I've was also part of a community where something like that happened & eventually I was done with all the nastyness and two-facedness so I left. I thought, if that's how a community is then I don't want to be part of it. But then I found Unibet and its the best community by far. So I've had both extremes  LOL Now... as far as it goes about costs to keep the Community running and promotions, rewards, gifts & stuff. Where do you think the money for that comes from ? It comes from us, well not just us here in the community, but from all the Peeps that use Unibet from Bingo to Betting. So it's actually your money that they are giving back to you & saying thank you for using Unibet to play Bingo or Make your bets. And I think they should do more promotions... because promotions do what they say... they promote things & attract people, which is a good thing for Unibet & for us because they get more customers, which means more money for them & good thing for us because they can give back more of OUR money. See what I'm saying...

@Now... about the refer a friend thing @ other communities...we not other communities. We are the Unibet Community... the hippest, squarest, most radical & awesome community out there... so lets be radical & awesome and think up a unique way of bringing new community members to join, without all the B.S.

And because this is Unibet Community it would be nice to have many different opinions, because we couple who post in this topics do not make community, you rest make this with us together! One is not better than other no matter if post 10 times in day and bring strongly own ideas to community, there is no VIP members which are better than other so I would love to hear in topics your voice also,yes, you who read this and did not post yet! Nice to have you all here =)

There's actually already a page showing all online users, it just hasn't been styled yet, so it looks a bit weird.

Getting this page styled and maybe show online users at the bottom of the page (just the avatar and a count) is definitely possible. I'll check with the designers to see what they think :)

As for showing Unibet activity on the community profile page, I'm afraid this is currently not possible. In order to do this, a lot of development work is required, but we do have an ongoing project which should make this easier - it'll still require a lot of development hours though. It's definitely something I want in the future (as an opt-in service), but it'll probably take more than a year 😪

We've discussed refer a friend (RAF) for quite some time. As it's already mentioned in this thread, there's going to be a huge challenge with bonus abuse. I believe RAF is possible, but we really need to nail it to perfection. A bonus reward is a possibility, but; the rewards can't be instant, there would be a deposit(s) requirement, there would be a relatively high rank requirement to trigger the reward (11 or 12) etc. 

So, I'm not sure how attractive this offer would actually be, but if we could get a few more contributing members, I believe it's worth it :)

What do you guys think?

 I like the idea, I think in order to get reward, the person you referred must:

- Make a deposit

- Reach rank 12

- Be a community member for 30 days.

This won't make RAF super popular (It's hard to get anything related to referrals popular) but it'll ensure that the few members we do get here and there will have a high chance at being quality ones.

I think @Magicadil nailed it here, but the requirements should be scaled a little higher... like say the peron who referred & the referee should make a deposit and they should both be members for 45 days. The 12th rank is O.K.

Was going to say there already is an option to invite a friend. That was how I invited the mrs, but can't find it anywhwer now.

Personally, dont think there should be any sort of reward for referring people, just going to get abused no matter what. If there's no reward you don't have to set ridiculously high requirements to be able to refer. People will refer because they genuinely recommend the community and people will sign up because genuinely interested.

Not everybody feels the need to login daily or post frequently, doesn't mean they are not interested in the community.

Doesn't make sense @JohnnyKings. If you interested in the Community then you will want to look what is going on... i.e.  log in daily & post frequently. The more interested you are, the more you log in & post right ?

 That's not always the case. For me, I regularly visit a couple of other forums than our own community, on one of them I'll write ocasionally while I on the other never post, but I do very much enjoy reading the opinion of other people there(it's a forum about politics) :) 

 We've talked about it quite a bit in the last few weeks, we think that we have way where we could limit the abuse to an absolute minimum, while still making it an attractive offer for referrals. Even if we're wrong, we can always revisit and remove the offer with no harm done :)
