If you\'d have read around a bit, you\'d soon have realized that this mmorpg is still in the development stage.
The reason why you were all alone is that as of now there isn\'t a whole lot to do, since this is just the tech demo. So people have got no reason to be on.

But hang around though, the next version will be released in a month or so i think.

....maybe they should put huge bold letters right above the download that say JUST A TECH DEMO-YOU CAN ONLY WALK AND TALK!!!!  then maybe some people would realized that......then again, i bet a suprisingly amount of people would fail to realize it still!

The thing is no matter how many times you say something, some people will nver bother to look. It seems to them to be much easier to ask, then to search. :(

It\'s because people are cheap and when they see free they start running over each other to get it. You could put a popup that pops up 100 times saying its a tech demo and we would still get these stupid posts.

I dont think it was a stoopid post: it was a valid question with a simple answer.  Even tho the game\'s in development, the newbie asked a v broad question that sumbuddy might have had something to contribute to like \"oh, there is ONE test monster working at the SW corner of the town, but all u can do there is let yourself get eaten; so enjoy!\".

As for \'warning\' notices, the most obvious place to put these is to have a message hanging right off the buildings for anyone getting in the game world to clearly see. That would be the \'immersive\' solution.

If there would be anything like that it would already be on the site. All people have to do is read the site.
Or to put it in a more known term: RTFM!  :)

it may be a valid question but it is SLIGHTLY annoying when people ask the same question every other day, and expect to get an answer when that answer is already on the boards! and there IS a search option!

i dont mean offense to anyone.....just look around before posting things! its not hard!
