everyone uses beginner chat cuz there isn't a feeling of unity among the older players or alliances. I will say again that the curve is sharp on entry!
Alot of Juvenile players and Spammers have more time than the average gamer to learn. Entry needs to be easy alliance needs to be harder,,esp no bots but a quick learn to is indicated upon entry. As for alliances there should be no penalty for quitting an alliance in the first 30 days until the game has a fix for the dead host, i know you have a fix but the host and pst and ect all dead and still i gotta quit? mb a coup?
