I really don't know if there have been something like this before and if this is the best place to post this but seeing through so many private servers (Philippine servers btw) which have 2k++ players, will creating such video contest actually hurt?
Some admins from those servers even say that iRO is about to go down sooner or later therefore abusing the ignorance of those potential players. Some also say that they can't catch up to those who have been here longer so they rather not.
Can something like a promo vid contest be made? The CM's can put whatever price they want just so that players would be encouraged to make one on whatever aspect of the game they want to promote. I see lots of mmorpgs posting their sponsored promo vids, why can't WP? Something to show those potential players that we are here and we are alive and kicking.
