Title: sayin hello (now need help)
Post by: RichieM on September 14, 2006, 06:39:22 am: I just downloaded the file and update and am getting ready to install and check this world out. Was looking for another MMORPG as i got bored with Runescape and this looked really promising. Just trying to come up with a decent name right now. So hiya to everyone.

Maybe take a look at the players guide (link can be found in my signature below) and it would be wise to check out the planeshift forum and see sticked threads. Some are most helpful. Have fun in game and watch out for the end of the world. :whistling: This world is easy to fall off of, and seems flat not round.

Post by: RichieM on September 14, 2006, 08:56:56 am: i'm confused. I run the program and when i get to the login screen, it shows fragnetics as the server and says failed next to it. I've reloaded 3 times and still no joy. I've been through the FAQ's and can't see anything similar. Help would be appreciated

Post by: Maerghaine on September 14, 2006, 10:04:45 am: it seems you have chosen a bad time to sign up... :)

the developers have taken the server down to add some things and repair some things.

This could take as little as an hour from my posting to a week, depending on all the secret things they are working on.

My advice is keep an eye on this forum, especially any items regarding downloads or clients. You might want to bone up on bittorrent and mutorrent, the preferred methods of downloading.

As for the name keep it medieval sounding. If you think you are being really cute and make a name like Justakid Likebart, you will likely have your name changed for you by a gm.

Welcome

and Bereror beat me to the pertinant point...
