Allegiance trickle down any more in population size, when it should be increasing! The market initiatives have been great, but there is something still missing from the formula.

CDT and such seem to not be doing as well these days

But mostly I think it's just the age of the game

Because the number of idiots is greater than the number of newbie-friendly people.

And by "newbie" i don't mean only the newbie tag, but also up to 7-8 rank.

QFT. I have been in too many PUG's where it ends up being some king of whorefest against newbies and stacked against commanders. That is not fun.

some ideas on data we could try to collect
1- how did the players find out about the game (such as; frends, a article about it, found it by chance, a dream sent by god informing them about the game)
2- what percent of the new players end up in afs
3- what percent of afs students end up in cdt

things we could do
1- make common technical problems and their solutions more visible to new player, because losing potential players to a fixable problem is bad
(i for instance had change the resolution on my game so it would be tolerable on my laptop, I've seen newbs ask about this in game, and as a general rule for every one that asks there are at least ten that dont)(i also had to minimize the effects of Screwy graphics so i could see anything.)

there's probably more things we could try
