Yea, well when you first look at Graal, what do the "hearts" look like to you? It isn't an idiotic question. They just don't know the proper "Graal speak" yet.

Only thing that I remember asking someone that now sounds stupid is "what do p2p stand for"(I didn't read graalonline little help thing)

Lucky for you, you had a friend who knew the ropes to help you, not everyone does.
I applaud trials who aren't afraid to ask questions to get help.
I do not applaud they way they are treated by some staff, and players though. I can't tell you how many complaints I have gotten, and still get about this, in game and on the forums.
I would have to say that this is not a very friendly game at this point.
Years ago, when I first started playing when there was only Classic, the players and staff were much friendlier then today (Not to say there aren't a lot of friendly people, because there are). Seems that for every one decent player, there are two not so decent players. *sigh*

Seriously, let the trials be, let them learn the game without being hated on, and maybe more of them will get p2p's.

I didn't, and I had to work my way up from nothing. Didn't stop me though, no matter how many people PKed me and how many people insulted me and stuff.

Same here, although not as much as trials recieve today. Point is that quite a few have quit, and never returned because of the way they were treated, and nothing was done. Shouldn't be that way. I have seen staff tell trials to "toughen up and learn to take it, or you might as well quit"
This isn't the way to treat potential paying customers.

Well once you get to a point where it's just plain continued harassment to one person, I can see why staff should take action.

This isn't the way to treat potential paying customers.

Why would I want to treate them any better than I treate classic/gold/vip people? Heh...

Did you idolize me then?

No, but I remember you from back then. Although, I don't think you used Gerami then? I don't remember by 100%..

Well, I was talking about those who treat trials differently then they treat people with paid accounts that have been around awhile. At least you don't discriminate.

Oh trust me I do, I just don't treate them TOO differently.

Who does this?

I am complaining about the way some people treat trial members. That has nothing to do with the subscriptions that the administration provides.
Obviously trials should not have everything that paying members have, otherwise, why have the subscriptions?
Don't misunderstand what I am saying.

You don't play classic servers much do you?
I don't play Gold servers much, so I can't say what goes on there.

I joined to post my crappy swords.

I could post many views on this, the simple fact is, when we were trials, we couldn't use these forums, so all of your points say something about all of us were trials? Yeah most of us turned out ok without the help of the forums.

Hey hey hey, I am helping trials. I help trials learn what happens when you step out of pk zone on era. What happens when you unpause and taunt people. But if they just asked FAQ they would know everything they need to know. Oh and how about having a site for every server explain I already know Un has one. Era is working or been working on one and someone on Zodiac is making one.

Hypothesis: They won't read it like most people don't read the CoC or the terms of use when they sign up for a graal account.

Now if you can somehow find a way to ensure these players are over 13 and have a maturity level over 13 then I have no problem whatsoever with them using the forums, but I don't want a bunch of 10 year olds running around here posting "balls" in an interesting topic just for S&G's.
