Bad way to make new accounts

#1 Post by haggoroth »

So I downloaded this game and registered for the forum and got very very lucky, because I've logged 0 playtime in the game but already found a bug. The account creation asks questions about the game, I guessed and got lucky with the answer I suppose since I made an account. But not the best system for creation since people could need assisstance who have yet to play your game.

My first reaction was the same. "I've not yet played the game, how am I supposed to know this". But well, if you think about it thoroughly, anything that is asked can be googled (I was asked what the golem per using class is) so... As long as it is possible to find answer online, I see no problem. Honestly, if a person cannot copypaste a question into google, find an answer, and copypaste it back... it's probably either a spambot or incapable of normal communication on forums anyway.

I have an idea: perhaps include a URL to the the wiki; if people are, well, human, they ought to be smart enough to figure out the answer from there.
