Things like this should be expected. People see a free MMORPG, they get excited about playing it and rush to get in as soon as possible. So they come on and try to find out with the least amount of work how to do so. the sad fact is, of all of us, I think the most responcible post was made by the one of us with the least posts, TheRedMonk. He welcomed the guy, then let him know that some of what karakth said was valid, but in a friendly way.
Just because someone makes an ignorant mistake doesn\'t mean that they will never make a valid contribution to a community, it just shows their humanity. yes, I\'ve seen this kind of thing a thousand times, I always try to error on the side of generosity.
Karakth, why does everyone have to have perfect grammatical skills. I don\'t capitalise every letter that needs capitalisation, I don\'t spell every single word right, yet I\'ve never been flamed for my typing skills! A lot of people only type the letters, never even bothering to punctuate, if you can understand the message, that\'s really all that matters.
Aendar, this kind of intolerance from someone who\'s been on the boards as long as you have surprises me, you\'re what, 19, you should be acting a little more mature.
I simply feel that everyone should be given a chance rather than being flamed for their very first post. running people off before they have had a chance to redeem themselves is counterproductive and not a tactive we need to use around these boards.
