Hi,

I've thought about how many new people having trouble to get into jsp in the first days... They mostly post in the general help ground searching for topics like " How To Complete a Trade On Jsp or What Is The Trade Finder " or they kinda spam the trading grounds because they don't know exactly what they're allowed to post / where they have to search for some Stickies ( it's kinda hard to get an overview the first days on jsp ).

You all know about how you're profile was looking at your first day on jsp ( This user has not created a personal profile yet... ).

My point would be to simply add a short introducing jsp guide such as this:

Hi and welcome to the d2jsp forums. Please have a short look at the links below to get a short consumption on how to trade, stay safe, ... on d2jsp

* So you just arrived at d2jsp and want to know how to change your stuff ( Items, Runes, Gold, ... ) into FG..
* but you don't know if your trade partner tries to fool you and you wanna stay save?
* What can you do if you are searching for an item..
* and want to keep the topic, to be updated on it?
* But you don't know what those guys are talking about ( explains a lot of abbreviations like: FG, Bin, DL, ... )
* Or what all those White, Blue, Green and Red Tags means? ... Not Rated
* Trusted
* Mediator
* Scammer
* Someone is spamming your topic? Click here to see what to do

and if you still have any questions then just check out the Big JSP-Bible


The new users may have some trouble to find the right section where all those links are stickied but they wont have any problems to check their profile :) and if they don't like it, they can simply delete it like the text " This user has not..."

In search of some opinions =)

Best Regards and Happy Voting,

D2FreakIt


I agree good work so far m8 :D

I said no because most, if not all, will not read it. Its just like site disclaimers.. not many people actually read them.. New people will just skip over it and go straight to the forum and act like an idiot..

I dunno about you but I remember me joining the site and gathering as much information as possible. I kept on pming buddies about every single step to take here. Well in fact I didnt do much beside that the first month. Also, when it is there it´s most likely to be read - thats how it goes. One says , tl:dr but actually tries to fly over the text and check for something that catches his/her eye. And if it would only help like 2% of newcomers who are trying to actually get into the flow of jsp it would be a helluva enhancement imo.
Buttom Line: Many ppl are reading the unified stickied but to improve the user friendliness it would be awesome to have that clearly visible and trimmed guide instead of the giant sticky hidden in a corner of the site.
