Trying to gather up all the different important topics in a post here, since we are seeing more and more repetition as new players join us.

I am sure I am missing some stuff, please post and let me know what I should change/add.

[Trevor]

This thread is awesome. Stickied soon I hope.

[Arnie]

Great thread. Thanks for taking the time! We should make this sticky.

[NDC]

Thank you for the excellent thread.

[Rymdkejsaren]

My pleasure. I will try to keep it up to date but if you feel there is something missing, just let me know!

[raven2134]

Update to my guide coming in a couple of hours.

Edit: Updated

[Rymdkejsaren]

Added the tutorial video and links to the streams I know of.

[Arnie]

Keep it up RK. This is your baby. We actually linked this as the thread to go to in the beta invite email last night.

http://www.twitch.tv/raven2134 PLEASE GO HERE! New videos and new stream! RK, please edit original post

[Rymdkejsaren]

I've added some discussions, updated some links and pruned a bit. I did notice that the topic was linked in the kickstarter mail, which made me feel quite pleased.

[raven2134]

I'll be updating my guide in a day or 2, following the new server build (SRM and pillage mode)

I'm looking for a volunteer to take over the maintenance of this thread. I recently sold my place and in January I am going backpacking, so I am quite busy with that and barely have time to play Factions, much less follow the forums like I used to. Any takers?

I might be interested, RK. What would be involved?

[Rymdkejsaren]

Well I will give you the code for the post and you can repost it and get admins to sticky that instead. Then you can add/subtract stuff as the focus changes.

It basically requires you to keep an eye on the forums regularly and know what discussions/topics are important.

[Guðmundr]

Sounds good. I'll do it!

[Rymdkejsaren]

Below is the code for the current post. Remake my post and contact someone in power to switch the stickied. Thank you for carrying the fire.

I contacted Sean, hopefully he'll see the message soon.

Thank you for carrying the fire.

No problem!
