OP +1 rep.

I was thinking of making a similar post but thankfully i you were less lazy than i am. ^_______^

This would deserve a super sticky... Something that makes it fly in every ones face every time they open the forums.

Oooooh, a sticky from the man himself.

And now they will see this "GET YOUR BETA KEY" at the top of the page. Man, they won't be able to miss it.

Though I think I might underestimate the complete lack of brains in the noob-community.

At the end it might be good to include some encouragement for quality posting.
Perhaps a little cleanup of the underlined and bolded text could be in order to make the post a bit easier to read. Only bolding or underlining the most necessary of the necessities.

Add: Feck i originally posted something that was included in the OP -___-'
*facepalm*

Nice initiative. Really. We're already dealing with senseless and repetitive threads...

Yep, keep the comments coming. This has gotta be bulletproof before the oncoming wave of dissapointed forumfall'ers.

And thanks for the sticky.

Also, out of curiosity, who gave me negative feedback saying that the title wasn't "valid"? Is that supposed to be a sarcastic joke or are you serious?

You were probably negatively repped, because you falsely promised beta keys. Poor thing But you should however, probably link this thread to the part actually saying about the beta testing, because it's the only available info regarding it, and I didn't see it in your OP.

Edit: Sorry, I just noticed you had it linked. However, it should be something like this: "And finally, all the available information on how to actually get into the BETA is found HERE!"

Oh, and +rep =)

lol, sounds like someone was pissed about not getting a beta key. oh well, promising beta keys is probably the only way to get new posters to read the stickies..

I got a few things to say about this.
1. I know lying about beta is a bit sketchy and cant really be done but it was the only way for people to read this. "Newcomers Please Read" sounds like a newby instructions on forums post that is very boring. Honestly ive never read them because its always the same for every forum on any website, its boring. The people who actually do take the time to read it were probably good people in the first place and arent prone to spamming stupid threads. I lied because i had to and its one of the only reasons people would be interested in reading a wall of text.

2. Moving to community threads, makes sense but also renders most of the affect useless. I didnt come here when i started here because its only people saying "hello". The General Discussion is where most of the action is and where everyone goes to first to post no matter what the real topic. By moving it here it is less seen by the people who actually need to see it.

I know making these changes is "proper" and should be done to follow the rules and be formal and such but that defeats alot of the reasons why i made this in the first place. I wanted to trick people into actually reading it. Now that it loses its disguise it makes it much less effective. I understand that if it has to stay like this then o well. But i would really like you to reconsider.

I think it's great that this has been stated plainly for new people to understand.

This should hopefully tone down some of the more basic questions and qualms that people often have for new games coming out.

It would be great if there was a way to force this to be the first thread anyone can view when registering on the forums.

I'm also very happy to see that MO is not going to be changing stances on these points because I consider them all very important reasons for me wanting to play MO over existing MMOs out there currently, well done!

Nice post, I hope newcomers will read it - but questions will still arise and hope that they will be given the opportunity to be answered by the community. :P

Still, you did alot of work and it's nicely done! hopefully many will use it!
