New Player Guide.

Postby ReLoad » Tue Jul 27, 2010 9:14 am

Hi Everyone,

Its time we updated our new player guide.

I am looking for a player or players to draw up and design a fabulous and thorough new player guide, something that can be downloaded off the website.
It needs to be professional and really thorough, yet suitable for n00bs to understand.

So, whats in it for you, well that depends on what your offering if its fully professional and looks awesome then it will be booty a plenty!

so if you are interested reply here, throw up a sample page of the sort of work you would be doing and we can go from there, even if a whole heap of you get together and work on it, thats great ill make sure you all get goodies.

So help yourself by helping noobs.

Cheers

It would help if you allowed people who want to do it to create a new empire solely for getting info. yes this would be a second empire but for testing purposes only and you could always pass on the pw to these empires to some of your admins to help you check and make sure people are honest. Also this empire would never leave safe clan/house.

They could name it "new player guide test" nothing could be traded to and from this empire but it would let people see the exact times it takes to do things since some have not been a new player in a very long time.

I would also suggest along with the new player guide that we get a updated guide up with all the rules......bv brackets, protection times, rules of do's and don't and punishments for breaking rules...etc. I still do not know what the exact punishments there are for doing certain things other than if you run two empires both are deleted, if its laid out and strait forward no one can complain about favoritism. Like what is the punishment for putting friends into prot, dropping new empires on frontline worlds...etc?

That's a really good idea Zordrin. It has been a while since most of us have actually done the early stages.

I really like his second suggestion as well, too much ambiguity on punishments and crimes atm

I too have one started and I worked on it quite a bit when I was an op, plus when I updated the game rules I incorporated those in the guide as well along with typical punishments. If someone wants to make a chatroom where we could all meet and work on this together, say in the evenings around 7pm est?
