[Done] noob corner in the forums

Post by LoSboccacc »

it would be nice to have all the embarrassingly stupid question collected in their own session,
so noobs can post them and future noobs can search them (hopefully)

True, I suggest renaming "Help and Contributions" to "Mods and contributions", and creating a new subforum named "Help and guides" (where you can ask questions and post guides)

Thats kind of relative.. Since this is the internet, there will always be people who wouldve put in over 100 hours within a week after release.
And then theres the folks who are instant pros just by reading wiki stuff :)
But yeah, noob corner: Im in !

As you may have noticed with some of the language in the game, devs aren't American English speakers. It makes sense to them to name this forum 'help and contributions.' This forum is really meant for people helping the development of the game and contribute to their monies and pr and the like. Their intention was not to make this a place for people asking for help, ect. This confusion will be addressed in the restructuring of the forums.

Although well founded, this is speculation. I only talk to them like once a week.

I know they are not native speakers, I read most of the threads in this forum.
I feel you are too defensive, it's not like I complained, I merely made a suggestion. :)

The most blatant one is the word "average" which is misspelled in the game's menus.
But I think its charming :P

Hahaha. I aprove such topic! :D But I suggest it to be moved to General Talk. It seems more appropriate for it ;)
