I do this once in awhile, but want to reopen the discussion given our recent rush of new members.
This is mostly geared towards those who have joined in the past month or so.
What should we be doing better to process you new guys and gals through the system?
What can be made easier?
What needs explained better?
What is missing or, conversely, may be left out?
Feel free to throw your ideas around. And thanks in advance to those who participate. -----------------------

My list of gripes:
* Need COMPLETE ONE-PAGE guide telling EXCATLY what to do in ORDER.
* Would like to see a rovelver of some kind in the store.
* A Star Wars store carrying grenades that DOES NOT have a thermal dentanator?!
* Expendable items aren't expendable? I suggest adding a "Delete" button to the bank so that members can deletle items when they are used. Also, add an element to the store items: Expendable: Yes/No.
Those are my main gripes. I offer my services as a tecnical writter to construct a guide for newer people in the army. I have done, actually, with every other RP site I have joined. I am quite profecient at it, I assure you. I will begin working on it right away, and e-mail it to Cosmic.

Yes, a one-page guide or even just one guide with all the info in it would be good. It was kinda hard trying to actively search all the pages to find out what to do. -----------------------

Hey Vint, if you want to find out what the Antenna theory is just look at the Raiders specialty stories, it should be on the first page.
It was written by FlyingKnight which used to be me. Don't copy it exactly but you can get a good idea of what the antenna theory is. -----------------------

"God does not play dice with the universe. He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e. everybody], to being involved in an obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time." - Terry Pratchett
