7.3 update

spacelaunches , it says you have to ten of them ,but a spacelaunch takes 1 day each,that will 7 ,so how can we reach 10 ?

@Raquella1888 been a member of this forum for 4 months and you did not know a QL bonus accelerates a space flight by 90%? And so many other Forum members did not know about QL bonuses? We are clearly failing as a group if newer members are not understanding the importance and workings of the space launches within the first couple of weeks of joining us

I would advice to every new member: If you are serious with this game, you HAVE TO read all these great manuals that @Captain WH Rollins made. You will find there great information and can return any time if you are not sure about something.

It’s not us failing as a group. It’s just some people are too lazy to search and hoping for all the answers to be served to them directly. Man oh man.

I think it is us failing as a group. There will always be relatively new people that ask questions that we might think are obvious or already answered. We need to accept that as fact and not show any impatience as searching and navigating the forum is harder than you remember it to be when relatively new. It took me 8 months to work out QLs for example and at the time I didn’t feel brave enough to ask such a noob question for fear of reprisal. I think this common to all forum’s, not just this one.

Ok but you see the little box on top that says 'search'? how many people have actually used it? have you read Capts guides? Do you know where they are? More to the point does anyone read Captains introductory speech - or is it too long?

Interestingly, I have often wondered if the guides are too long, or perhaps the thread is not sign-posted clearly enough. Perhaps new members do not know they are there, until someone on the members forum points the way to them. Not really sure.....

Didnt mean your guides. They are fine. I meant Captain's speech when you join the forum. It's very long

I don’t know about others, but I, for one, found this forum because I was looking for some kind of guide to play this game.

Then obviously I registered, and got a PM explaining a lot of stuffs. If people just read it, would be a different story.

Then the next step obviously I went to the Airport City Guides section, almost everything is already there to be read.

But again, we know how some people are too lazy to read or search.

Captains speech should include a series of short cuts. That way people can link direct to the guides section.

You know what, I think they're great. But could each topic be split into different posts, with some kind of linking?
I wonder whether they come across a little bit "wall of text"-like for some people?

(I appreciate this suggestion is, ostensibly, a Wiki...but it's controlled here in the brilliant way the good Capt. writes them. Would this make them possibly a little easier to read?)

lets be clear there is capt as in Rollins, and his excellent guides, and Captain as in welcome to forum speech. I was referring to Captain not Capt Rollins.

Fair point. Lol in that case I don't think I knew there were intro speeches either!

EDIT: Just gone back to Oct 2017 for a PM. Yeah, that's too much too.

In fairness to newbies to the forum, if you search QL in the search bar, you get no results as there are too many occurrences.

I think it is a good idea, I have had it on my mind for a while, but have never suggested it. Not sure why this is so.
