You're the chief NAT on Valikorlia, in case you've forgotten. You should be perfectly capable of creating a tutorial, if you really think it's that important.

I really don't see what all the fuss is. When I first logged on to Zodiac, I believe there was a little tutorial quest. When I first logged on to UN, I learned pretty quickly what I was supposed to do. Graal servers aren't incredibly complicated or intricate.

What's ridiculous is that experienced players are always the ones saying that newbies wouldn't understand something. I don't remember the last time a newbie posted something like this.

EDIT: I'm not saying that I think tutorials are stupid idea, and should never be done. My opinion is that "Mark Sir Link" is severely underestimating the ability of new players to figure out what to do, and is exaggerating the assumed 'impact' not having tutorials and guides has on Graal's population and financial figures.

EDIT AGAIN: Also, even if these forums are meant for playerworld suggestions, such suggestions would more likely be quickly received and noted if they were given to the staff directly.
