Title: NEW MEMBER?? READ THIS!!
Post by: Mr_Dark on July 31, 2011, 02:08:32 PM
On popular demand, now stickied.

Ez, what you might have noticed is not directed at newcomers. I joined during April and I never experienced any problems. Why? Because I was capable of piecing together a normal, comprehensible sentence and respectfully lay down ideas or have discussions.

 I know I posted some things that have already been said, but I at least tried to search on that particular idea. It's toward newcomers that hostility is shown, it's toward those people who clearly did not take the minimal effort of at least searching for it, or look it up in the Game section. If they can't follow the rules and regulations because they stand above reading a text that was designed to give them a better time here on the forums, fine. But when somebody makes the thread about when the game is coming out, that's a bit too much.

 So all you newcomers who read this post, here's my advice:

- Your posts should be comprehensible, in the sense that you should at least respect the people who will be reading your post with a readable sentence/wall of text.

- Please try to read up on the subject that you are interested in, whether about the Game or else. 'THE GAME' button is there for you to read about.

- Use the search function, I know it's not perfect and it's a bit hard to use, but once you get used to it, you will be surprised that it actually works. So please give the search bar a chance to prove useful.

- Read the rules and regulations, and try to keep to them. It provides a better experience for both you, and the readers.

- Try not to be offensive or inappropriate, you won't make too many friends that way. I'm sure you must know this by now.

- If you looked up on it, and still didn't find what you were looking for, we will be there to help you out.

- Although there's probably some more advice I could give you, my last one is this: Listen to what Jerry says.

 Hope that cleared up this little misunderstanding, and of course we are looking forward to have more active newcomers. See you on chat or on the forums.

                                                                                              Cheers, Genbor

Since I have promised to be nice, i shall explain.

On the homepage, we have in large red letters that say the beta is delayed.

In the downloads section, it says nothing there, because we have no download.

You see, the game is still in development, and we here in PU are working our best to provide an awesome game, and an awesome game takes time. All we ask is that you, the potential player, remain patient.

We do invite you to join us in chat, or hang around on the forums, as we have plenty for you, the potential player, to do while you wait.

Any an all new members that read this from now on, I hope I have answered your questions appropriately, if the first post has not been sufficient in your information gathering needs.

I think this page needs to be linked on the front page in big red letters.

Then again, not sure that would help much since people ignore what's on the front page anyway...

Maybe it's because some of them don't like to read?
Instead of words, I think there should be a comic strip about the rules, advices for what to do and what not, the game is NOT released yet, etc. in the front page.
I think it will be more effective since they will be more interested by pictures/comic than just words.

Hell, even I can make such a thing. We need a horizontal banner that stands out from the background colors and does not blend (on the blendtec blender) with it.
