I notice that new players have a tendency to go to the notice boards, pick a random thread, and write "how do you play?" Even though we do have a question corner for these types of posts...so here's how I think we could fix this minor problem.

Either/Both:

(1. Remove the phrase "game information" from the description of the notice boards. New players might take that as an inviation to request information about how to play the game.

(2. Put a large, noticeable link to the question corner at the top of the notice boards, which will direct most would-be spammers to the correct place.

Just a minor peeve of mine, nothing calling for immediate attention, but I figure it wouldn't be hard for Req to do.

I personally haven't ever posted above "Suggestions"
and important information can be missed in all the "non-essential clutter".

I been playing this game longer then most of ya, (except 4 a selective few). We've c this all the time. There really no stoping it, it would be great if they would "Read!" b4 clicking!! but it happenes.

I have posted in ever forum WOL has. I try not to spam. but I mite have awhile back, I'm not sure?.

but, when I post something, to me it's important(or somewhat important(depending)). but I try to put it in the right forum. and hope to get a reply or something.

Maybe we need a Beginners Forum?
