It's been said by a lot of people on numerous occasions that people just don't know about our forums. I suggest that whenever you make a new character you get a book with the website and forum address in them. Just something simple like Check out in-x.org for the latest news and come discuss anything and everything on our forums @ in-x.org/forums. It's an easy way to point people here and I don't think it would require too much work on the part of the devs.
Or another option could be to auto-create an account on the forums with the name of your in-game account or the first character you make in-game and the password is the same as your account password.

And also put a P.s on book: If you arent having to much action in game come to forums, plenty of action going here. :p

Or how about when a person makes and account and clicks the "how to join" tab, maybe right after that they click the forums tab? :p

lol 80 nah man I am saying, the newbie could always click the forum tab right after he/she joins the shard. I am saying its not that difficult.

Actually it took me like 6 months to get a forum account here, for some reason I had a bunch of problems and had to have staff get it working for me.

I think it no each new player will reflect on that that it is necessary to look in the book =) E.g i throw out at once usually such books...
What about another way - big gump with information which cannot be closed? Something like gump which was on the first XUO on RunUO Emu only not with the questionnaire and with the important information =)
I've suggested to the staff to do a message of the week gump that tells you all the updates added each week but I don't think they really want to do it right now.
A gump could work too. We just need some way to point players to the forums.

The forums already has more action than the shard. Don't think we need more people on forums.

If on shard that comes more players and at their forum accordingly becomes more! So will be in any case because any problem is easier and faster to solve here.
