Welcome message

Postby Unclefragger » 08.13.09

I believe our welcome message on the server (the bigtext) still says "huhu", I think we should change that in something more useful.
My suggestion would be "If someone says sorry, forgive him (!fp)" so people connecting do know how to forgive (if we change the tk to auto forgive after a given amount of time we can replace this line with "Heal you mates! It's one frag less for the others!").

Any suggestions or even reasons not to do so?

Huhu is fine. But tips would be fine too when b3 is idle (like those "yay we have site" and "check ur stats").

I agree with uncle's suggestion. Actually this could be useful and educate players a bit.

i think, uncle is right.
Huhu is nice, but this place can be used for more usefull things, like bot explanations or the website.

s/huhu/RTFM/ ;)
In a more generic way, what about inviting people to read the rules on dswp.de before playing ? So they could register, know about !fp and others rules as well.

PS : about "huhu", it took me some time to realize what it actually stands for, because I use "huhu" with a totally different meaning and pronunciation (sounded like hühü for me)... I don't know if other people didn't get it too =)

rtfm would be the best solution if you could say that everyone would visit this site and check it, but most of the players would just ignore it ...

I wouldn't visit a website for playing to read the rules even if the game told me so. If I'm on a server, I want to play. Hence the !fp thing is the most important one, while we can announce the website like we did up until now.

Yeah right. Still, people couldn't complain about not seeing the rules...
Ok for the !fp/medic. We really should to add these messages to the advertising list too (just after the cheerleads one :D)

Then:
"YOU are being watched by admins!"
:D

About !fp/medic we should put after cheerleaders. Maybe i should make one bind, like those wit tips, just this one would be with rules.
