About that part concerning new community members: yes, there are a lot of players that are playing much longer than we are. But please ignore the date when I joined the forums, I'm on disco for about half a year now, but at the beginning I was only reading without registering. And I also had to register twice. I'm not sure what went wrong the first time, but I was waiting for about 3 or 4 weeks to get my account approved before I decided to try it again. (First time it was because of some insults I had the pleasure to read. But that player never showed up again).
As not all rules are obvious if you just joined, I learned a lot in game, fortunately almost every time due to someone else getting told about while I myself was around (well, at least fortunately for me I guess). And thanks to 4 years fantasy-role-play experience I never even thought about equipping a dragon fighter with Rheinland weapons or something like that. Would be like Elves riding Warghs...
Well, there's still the "show you the ropes"-thing. But since I set up my first outcast character I always tried to act close to the factions, to keep up to date about the "local issues". And cooperation between outcasts and their allies has become a little bit asleep if I got that right. We know that any agreements to revive it will have to work in both directions, but we would like to try reviving it. (It's hard to write down what I really want to say, I just hope I managed to point in the right direction.)
