Because I have been recently asked this question, I decided to compile a list of things that you can do to participate and be more active in the Mafia community. Create Themes If you have a great theme idea, code it and submit it to the QC! If you do not know how to code themes, use this helpful guide, http://pokemon-online.eu/threads/how-to-make-mafia-themes-v-3-0.27368/. There are countless resources to help you in theme making, and hopefully, QC accepts your theme and it will be on the server. Help New Players We were all new once. It doesn't help someone if you call them out for being new or not knowing something. If someone is new or doesn't understand something, explain it to them or direct them to #Mafia Tutoring or a tutor. You can also apply to be a tutor yourself. Review Themes Helping out theme creators in either Review or Theme Development is a great way to contribute. You can point out issues they may have, either coding or balance wise and help them work towards a solution. Being a part of QC is also another way to contribute. Create Theme Guides Theme guides are brief explanations of what roles are and what they are supposed to be a given theme. Create and reserve theme guides here: http://pokemon-online.eu/threads/theme-guides.30711/. Theme guides help players understand themes better, and are useful to new players. Discuss Games This thread, http://pokemon-online.eu/threads/mafia-qotd-warstories-v2-0-1.22597/, is somewhere you can post logs of games where there was something exceptionally great achieved, or there was a lot of skill involved. This is somewhere you could discuss games. After you have died, don't just sit quiet and wait for the next game. [Dead] Chat is where you can discuss the ongoing game with other dead players. There are also several other threads where you can discuss games and strategy. Start Games One of the most important things to do is start games! If you notice a game is not running, start a game! It's most likely that other people will join you and that you can start a large period of activity. Maintaining activity and players are one of the most important things to do.
I would also add something like "Discuss games", either on Warstory threads or on threads about game strategies.
