The title is relatively self explanatory. Create a new forum, titled "New Player Forum" and locate it at the top of the view (above all the other forums, even the OWF) so that newer players are more likely to see it. Very often new players come here and make posts that get essentially ridiculed by other players. People ask for aid ALWAYS or "alliances?" or "how to grow!" and it would be good to keep a forum specifically for new players to ask "stupid questions" that everyone here already knows.

I like it. At the very least someone could just put the new nation guides and FAQ's at the top of the page and available to see without logging in so they can start to learn immediately. Some people never even see those guides simply because they are too lazy to register.

It wasn't off of this page at the time, it's not that bad.

Anyway I think that the 'question center' serves that purpose quite nicely. At any rate players are more likely to ignore a question forum if they were under the same mentality as to ignore the instructions.

Thanks for the constructive and useful feedback. I really appreciate it when people go out of their way to post comments that are useless and factually incorrect.

This suggestion actually was not approved until recently, meaning that it would appear after any other suggestions with posts after the date it was originally posted.

As it is, information for new players is spread out all over the place. sure, they can get their questions answered in the question center, but I for one was suprised to find guides in the "Discussion" section. i think relocating everything to one place would be useful.
