What do Stefan, Unixmad, and the PWAs have to do with it? If you're so upset that Classic servers don't have guides, then go complain to the managers.

Graal is a pretty static community, and Classic servers have existed for 10+ years. At least, Valikorlia has been around since the beginning. Do you honestly expect guides to be written now? Do you really think it's imperative that tutorials are scripted? And, in any case, why would you ask for them here, instead of going straight to the servers themselves?

And naturally your first post involves complaining about the topic instead of contributing to it.

Unlike you, I consider playerworlds to be games. And any modern decently made game will provide some form of direction and instruction on how to play.

Because that is what forums are for, if the playerworld staff don't use the forums then it's their own stupid fault they don't receive all the input they should be getting.

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.
