And yes, David - I do think roleplayers should be auto re-directed to the forum. Because honestly - click on the majority of the new people who've signed up. It'll give you the date of their creation, but a dash next to the 'last visited' spot. Which means they never even came to the forum. The forum seems a vital part of the game that they're missing out on.
I'm inclined to agree, and I'd go a step further and say that if they don't see the forum immediately then they could be put off unless they aren't forum roleplayers. And the game is aimed at forum / chat roleplayers, really.

Would it be possible to link log-ins? Right now, you have to log in separately to the forum and the grid - could the forum perhaps reflect the logged in grid account? It's not incredibly intuitive that the forum account is created and has the same username/password as grid, and I could see people being frustrated by not being able to find the forum sign up button.

Completely agree that'd be a good idea. At the very least, upon registration it should log you into the forum as well as the game so you don't get confused.

There is a forum sign up button, however. It just directs you to the game. I was hoping that people would take that as a hint that they sign up via the game and it creates their forum account, but I guess that was wishful thinking, lol.

So after reading this thread, I decided I would try to start and open thread aimed at new players. Try to get several new players like myself all in one place, so wehave some fun role-playing together and get herself to the role-playing part of the game and be less intimidating since most of us are all new.

I thought it would be a way to help gather some people for it and helped us to gain some experience and learn a bit about the role-play aspect of this game.

A newbie roleplay thread is a great thought, Aloisio, thanks.
