Apparition Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) I logged into the forums at home this evening, and at the top it's telling me that my game profile is 0% complete and that I need to create a game account. I clicked "Next", and it took me to a screen to agree to a bunch of different things like a user agreement, privacy policy agreement, yadda yadda yadda. Erm... what's going on?

City Council Widower Posted February 5, 2020 City Council Share Posted February 5, 2020 I think Cipher is testing something to help new users. Don't worry about it. 3 "We need Widower.

Troo Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Fair enough. @Cipher Could you sticky a "New Player Guides" section in there as well? Something like: Review the User Agreement Review the Privacy Policy Review the Code of Conduct Read the FAQ Visit the Game Account page to set up your game account if you haven't already done so Check out the New Player Guides for tips and tricks if you're in to that sort of thing.

City Council Jimmy Posted February 6, 2020 City Council Share Posted February 6, 2020 Don’t blame Cipher, this was my fault! Unfortunately by default it’s displayed to everyone, not just new accounts. You can click next or dismiss and it’ll go away 🙂 2 Got time to spare? Want to see Homecoming thrive?

The world we live in has instilled in me a tremendous fear of clicking links that appear with no explanation. I know a GM has said it's ok, but I'm still not clicking it. Nope. No way. You can't make me do it. I just know it's going to take me to a never ending "news" story about a waitress that left shocking note on a the receipt that left the wife speechless.

WanderingAries Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 This actually came back a second time for me, but I can't be sure I managed all the clicking it wanted the first time as it felt too quick for what it was presenting.
