Thank you. True, there are some bad seeds. My first 15 minutes of play-time was filled with 'lol', 'thx', German and blatantly OOC stuff. From basically everyone. But I won't judge the entire playbase from 15 minutes in Pennsylvania.
That's kind of the thing. It was Penny, where all the new players arrive. You'll find that the noobity(just made that one up) dilutes as you go further and further away.
All the areas of the game have their advantages and setbacks, and it's kind of on you to find out which parts suit you best.
In any case, don't let the aforementioned bad seeds discourage you. And also remember that not all of them do it intentionally, some may not know that they're not doing the right thing, so you can always try talking to them. (Do note that it's best to stay polite and not involve any rule lawyering)
And if you have any questions ingame, if a player with the [Angels] tag is ingame, you can ask them for anything or for help because that's what we do - help out new guys.

Welcome to the server. Try to stay away from New York and Pennsilvania. Typically a hot spot for very obnoxious players. You will also probably find a lot of pirates who scream "2 mil or die" at you. That's an unfortunate aspect of the game but I wouldn't say it is detramental. Discovery has a lot of positive aspects.

I'll tell you something, Creed...I used to be a moderator on a game site, I was actually gaining a good reputation until I started going inactive. In the end I simply couldn't be bothered with all the childishness that the game itself suffers from. Other sections of the site might not have been so bad, but I was only interested in the one series of games it had sections for and it was mostly resided by idiots. If you were in the lobby in-game, all you would see is 'noob this' and 'boon that'. Ironically enough that game server excessively filters bad words, you can't even say Jesus, but you can say 'noob'. It's a funny world, ain't it?
Here though there is an effort to keep the content mature. Whilst this game has its fair share of elders, there are also many children that come here and they too take the time to act appropriately. Alright, flood can be somewhat volatile but I guess that's where people let their stress out, elsewhere you will find only isolated nonsense.

Those are hotspots for lolwut idiots, but filled with some awesome RP too.

The forum rules are much better than in other communities. No leet speak, only English, excessive use of smilies is looked down on. It's paradise. I've not even logged on to the server yet, because the forums are such a joy to use. I will get there though.
Are you also a fan of chlorine bleach? 8)
The problem with troubleshooting is that real trouble shoots back.
