Why don't we have a FAQ team?
Unlike the people who want a reset/updates, I've tried actually talking to trials/newbies/former GK players (the latter being hard to find and get to talk in substantive numbers). Many complaints are due to ignorance (i.e. not being able to level much due to not knowing about monsters other than bunnies/shell bomies/other common overworld ones). Having EMs act as FAQs doesn't work because there isn't an on-tag EM more than 95 percent of the time and even if there is, players don't associate an EM tag with giving advice like they do a FAQ tag.

I agree, GK needs some kind of FAQ to help the newer players.

Although I don't play Kingdoms, I never quite could get into things, simply because of the lack of direction. I completely agree with you Googi, Kingdoms probably should have some sort of FAQ team.

We thought about that around one year ago already but we threw away out thoughts again. We couldn't think of someone who would be able to do it and also actually do it. The only people who were able to do it were like this...

Person: *Cry* GK is going to waste!
Staff: Want to help?
Person:*CRY*

Yeah well the job got thrown to us EM's. And I am on all day and do help people as much as I can. Wether the other EM's come on or not isn't my problem. I do my job. And frankly you don't need to have the official tag to be able to help people. Just answer their questions plain and simple.

Yeah, the lack of direction sucks. It could be fixed by adding ingame stuff that somewhat show you where to go through quests and stuff. And I'm not talking about the random NPC escorts...

perhaps a random pop-up "help" window when you are just aimlessly walking around and haven't killed anything your level?

While its true you don't need a tag to help people. What about those new people that come on and don't really know who anyone is. Are they supposed to message every player online and ask them how to get started in the game? Usually the response they get if any at all is go away noob..... or worse.

I do my best to answer question. I even answer most massed questions.

I'd do FAQ work. I know when GK first came out I quit after an hour or so cause I didn't know what to do. I eventually tried again and figured it out.

I agree having a FAQ team would help out.

I had a few positions (including FAQ and FAQ Chief) back on 2K1. Although under normal circumstances I don't apply and reject all offers of staff positions, I'd be willing to become FAQ (and only FAQ) on 2K2 out of recognition of how dismal the situation is.
