Not sure how accepted the statement is, but I agree with it. The way I feel on the issue is, with the gaming market being so competitive we should do what we can to help keep newbies interested in the game. That includes enabling certain features that help new players better understand the game. People don't want to have to read a technical manual to learn how to play. From what I have seen, most want to be able to download and start playing right away. The easier we can make it for people to get into the action of a game of Netrek the better chance we have of keeping them. All the features currently in place seem like reasonable tools to do this. -Joe >From: Narcis <narcis at luky.nl> >Reply-To: Netrek Development Mailing List <netrek-dev at us.netrek.org> >To: netrek-dev at us.netrek.org >Subject: [netrek-dev] What is a borg? >Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2007 20:00:54 +0100 >Is this a general accepted statement? i sometimes hear the B word >too, (though it is not quite accurate, MacTrek has ghostbusting problems >and the Borg collective has excellent networking :-) but wondered if >there is a general consus about what is borg and what is not. > >Personally i like the definition above, including the statement that >computing information (like targeting aids) does qualify as borg. > ><snip> > > > the netrek "board" (the people who currently run what keeps netrek > > alive)? > >I'd like to address that question to the "board" but would not know >where >to address. > >regards > >Chris > > >_______________________________________________ >netrek-dev mailing list >netrek-dev at us.netrek.org >http://mailman.us.netrek.org/mailman/listinfo/netrek-dev _________________________________________________________________ Get a FREE Web site, company branded e-mail and more from Microsoft Office Live! http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/mcrssaub0050001411mrt/direct/01/
