a few general improvement perhaps

been thinking about these for a while, so here goes....

one of the most frequent questions newbies ask is 'what happened to my hotkeys?' the answer of course is page up/down. i think it would be great if that was marked on the hotbar.

another frequent question is why is my game not validated, again easy answer, go back to main menu and wait for the whole dialog to pop up before starting your game. i believe a red/green light thing or not ready/ready indicator of some sort would solve this.

the last thing probably isn't very important but, if you start in morning gate, shouldn't the door be locked? or someone standing there to tell you that you prolly shouldn't go out there at level 1? surely it's been a while since the orcs have seen a level 1, and they're just itchin' to step on it.

If you decide to wander out into the Far East and pick a fight with an orc patrol as a level 1 Celestial, you deserve your fate. You have to get East before you can unlock either Celestial class, so you should know better.

BAH!!

But... If that gate isn't locked, I can't go make a risky power-start run where I pick up high level loot from nearby dungeons! If I want to dance with level 30 enemies, why can't I?

Oh good, I'm not the only one who does this.

The other ideas are all great though :) Especially the traffic light thing.
