I thought it might be a good thing to include some info on this in the mail containing their password? At least a link to the "Help and FAQ" (although it should be easy enough to find) and to the threads already dealing with avatar and/or chat trouble on this forum.
Also a "Introduction for newbies"-thread, sticky (topped) and closed except for council members. There is already one, but it is 15 pages long! Noone reads that! (That is also the reason for it to be closed; if not it would soon fill up with responses and questions)
Obviously the "Help and FAQ" more than covers for this last idea, however what I had in mind is much shorter, just some basic guidelines: Stay on topic, don't post garbage, do's and don'ts regarding language, where to do what, etc.
Also to include Rednell's and Amarië's email addresses for avatar forging. (Unless they want their mailboxes full of viruses and spam it is probably not too wise to include them in the welcoming email)
Just some thoughts. Feel free to disect, choose and discard!
