The problem I see is that the few who complain don't want help. Either they say it flat out, or excuse themselves with X or Y factor.
There's a point where it becomes legit to ask ourselves "Is this game really for you ?", and in a "I care for everybody's interests equally" way.
I dropped pages of advice concerning mechanics and game concepts these people seemed to struggle with, and it just gets brushed off.
I see plenty of sprouts with pristine attitude in game who actually ask questions, have an open mind, and want to learn tho, and these people are amazing to work with.
Yeah, I'm fully aware of the "You don't pay my sub" types, and that's not who this thread was meant for. As I said in my op, I know that the game fails to do an adequate job about explaining most things to new players, especially if this is their first MMO, and as such, there are questions to ask that most people don't even know that they SHOULD ask because they don't know they exist. Those are the players that this was originally aimed at. The ones who do want to improve, but don't know how, nor why they are failing to improve even if they are trying to do so.
