I still think Denga should change his profile photo /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" /> click yes if you agree.

If this message was introduce when I installed the game it would be different. The issue is is wasn't.. I am a registered member, email certified and a know member of this community. ?Yet I hit no I don't understand and i am no longer able to play this game.... Unless I am FORCED TO HIT YES I understand to play..

Include it in the original license and send everyone else an update on the license agreement is the proper way to address this sort of situation. Don;t give me access to play and then tell me if I don't hit "YES" i Can't play!

actually, this is precisely what it is.

you can think of this as an update to the terms+conditions of allegiance (even though it isn't a change, it's a, "in case you missed it the first time" thing)

you were asked did you read the conditions, you clicked no. you don't play because you didn't read/understand the conditions so cant have agreed to them.

and for most people it is included when you install the game, it was just much simpler to give it to everyone, + it makes new people who have installed the game recently who are most likely to need to read it have the opportunity to read it

No, it's not a term and condition, it's not an addition to the EULA, it's not a requirement, a RoS, or anything else. It's a courtesy warning trying to help people understand what happens when they log in to another alleg player's computer.

If there was a pop-up that read: " 'Be nice to newbs!' Click 'Yes I understand' or 'No I don't understand' " The result is just the same. No new info, it's not something added or anything. It's an effort to help people understand what account linking is and what causes it. If you understand that, then you should click yes. If you don't understand what that means, then you should click no.

CLICKING YES IS NOT A STATEMENT OF AGREEMENT, IT'S A STATEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING

Love ya Frogster, but it's just this simple. When the entire community is left scratching their heads over this, ya gotta consider who's outta line here. Come back to us man!

One button, "Ok" since it is a statement of terms already in place?
Would this appease all sides?

THIS was our big friday 13th bomb?! Cmon guys, really. Pook, I hate to say this, but we may need to use tomorrow as in place of today. This has not been what the 13th standards usually are. I'm rather sad about this,and how the community wont participate it its duties.

"Ok" wouldn't work.

The reason there is a "YES" and a "NO" is so that when little Billy Bob installs on his buddie's computer and starts it up for the first time - he reads that box and says "Oh $#@!, I don't want to use my callsign" and hits No.

Those two said it all. I think that should sum it all up.
