Ok.

I own a server, and like all owners, I want many votes on the lists. What are good ways to get users to vote?

Here are ways I use:

this thing at spawn: http://prntscr.com/2fjf4y

this message upon login: http://prntscr.com/2fjf71

these announcements: http://prntscr.com/2fjf8y , http://prntscr.com/2fjfb4

and during the first week of each month I do a thing where you get double voting rewards, and I do a /mail sendall about it and post it on the website homepage, aswell as adding the notification that its double rewards week in the vote message that shows on login.

But I don't feel as I gain votes as fast as I would like to. What are some better ways to convince users to vote.

My rewards:
3 diamonds
$1050 ingame cash
2 TNT
200 XP orbs

Feel free to share your ideas below, they would be appreciated.

sa5mmmI have some suggestions that I'm trying out. If you have a server website do something like this.
http://www.MyServersWebsite.com/vote
Then with your /vote message just put go to http://www.MyServersWebsite.com/vote
It's only 1 link to memorize so players will more likely go to it! I noticed that a lot of big servers like lava craft do that.


I have a fairly easy website for voting, http://villagerealms.com/vote . Its very easy to vote from there as it has a convenient method of just clicking an arrow to display the next list.

Steven [CG]Get a plugin called GAListener. Configure it, then use it while people are online. When they see the prize, they're gonna want to vote.


GAlistener is what I use and ofc there is a vote message when a user votes haha

Bribe them. Ask If they want free rewards. Then if they agree. Tell them to do /vote and vote for it. Ask something like "Would anyone like some free diamonds?"

And then get your server removed for bribery. What a good suggestion.

What you currently have is pretty good, but I think your community thinks them as a nuisance. Remove the login vote list and make the list smaller and cleaner. Add a quick and easy message for people to complete (Like in a lobby or waiting area) This way they will be more open into competing the vote.
