I don't think the community's attitude toward noobs (ranks 1-4) are that bad, but we do a really poor job helping voobs get better. As a community, we could provide a bit more slack and support for the ranks 5-9. What seems obvious to vet isn't obvious to them.

This is simple. English is very much needed to play this.
This game has no other language interface.

At the time of this post there are 191 people on the leader board. There was 140 a month ago.
I've seen a lot of (0)s on today too and they've been able to play cause people have been online most of the day. A strong Friday carried into a strong Saturday.
Keep it up everyone.
I can confirm this.
Really seen more (0)'s

Items where I think Alleg lacks:
1. Friendly players ... I think a lot of the Vet players take this game to much to heart. It is a game!! You guys are hard on new players. Calling them noobs, kicking them, stacking, yelling at them when they mess up. This is something I remember at least from the past. That would/has left a bad taste in new players mouths.
Yeah your info is outdated, come play again.
There is not many "rude" people anymore.
Newbies are quite welcomed, and ban's are mostly for being unresponsive (AFK) for too long.

I made the time changes and some keyword mods so the ad is in review again by google and not showing as of yesterday afternoon. Let's see how long it takes them to re approve it.

????? 1% of China represents a bigger market than full Ireland.

If you want, concentrate on countries that have better ping towards the current servers. Those are the people that will actually enjoy the game, and are more likely to stay.

I think you can broaden a bit the list. ;)

Is it a flat rate?

Personally, I don´t suggest country filtering, unless it actually is a $$$ issue (the more countries you advertize, the more expensive). But if I have to filter, I would rather filter by ping, than by english-speaking-%.

You know there used to be a squad called German Borg right (Germans tend to speak German not English)?
