Sorry, but the last ten threads or so were only about problems which appear over and over again and are just caused by some end user weirdness or lack of knowledge.
The most popular ones:
- 256 color map limitation
- Useless compatibility options turned on
I think we should rename some stuff in the FAQ at http://worms2d.info/FAQ.
For example, if someone has a problem with a map, he won't search for "How do I make my own map?", he will search for "My map doesn't work and it's (imo) not my fault!".
Plus some people don't see the FAQ thread and probably go right into "►►► Game Problems: Please Read Before Posting ◄◄◄" because of the bold eye-catching arrows. But at first sight, you find nothing there which will help you at all of these common problems, just a superduper long and boring text and some tiny links noone will see after leaving the thread because there was just "blabber" about cracked games before (which is totally okay, but it looks like an License Agreement thread for others).
Thus someone should rename the
"Frequently Asked Questions" (yawn)
thread into
"►►► FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions to game problems! ◄◄◄" (OMGYEAH)
so people notice it. And a warning icon like in this thread's title ("a questionmark (like now)? Am I supposed to take a survey there?").
Notice how the bold arrows pop out of this post?
