Theres something we can all do better at while playing alegiance so that we can further engourage newbies to stay. :)
Stop using harsh/foul language. This includes abriavtions such as wtf, omfg, ffs and improvising swear words by spelling it incorrectly. :sad: :nono:
Even if the filter is engaged it doesn't filter everything, espcially the abriavations and improvised swear words. :bash:
It says right in the rules of conduct, 3rd section from the top, the rules about using this type of language. :fight:
http://www.freeallegiance.org/FAW/index.php/Rules_of_Conduct here's the link if you want to see it yourself. :excl:
The game would be alot nicer for everybody, especially newbies, if people would stop using foul language.
If you agree with me, vote yes in the pole. :thumbsup:

Where's the "$#@! NO" option

and the option for banning annoying noobs for quoting the RoC
you're talking to people who've been around for 1-12 years
we know what it says

try memorizing the game instead of the RoC
it's good for player retention

now stfu and play

Just my two cents. If you have a RoC, and the vets don't follow it, what do you think that is going to show the newb player base?

I may be entirely wrong about this, but I think most of the vets here started playing when they were in their teens. And most of our current newb population are kids. Just something to think about. I voted yes.
Some people are like a Slinkie. They aren't good for anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Allegiance is as or more censored than the majority of the internet/other games
if you can't handle it, stay off the internet
