Have these emails been sent recently? (As in the last few days? There was a bunch of these messages sent out a little while ago, but the account that was behind those was banned, and new accounts blocked from sending private messages, so this specific scam should not happen again.) And yeah, Wildfire Games is not and will not be handing out iPads or other things at all.

Hello, I'm not 100% sure, but I would guess that's leftover from the old wiki, and I think it might have been a default page just talking about basic formatting etc, so it's not a big loss. You might want to take that as your first project: creating the Help page and figuring out what goes on there as you figure the wiki out. I would presume the first step would be to ask for edit/create permissions though, as that doesn't seem to come automatically. I'm not sure who to ask though, maybe @Stan` ?

Ok, it has been changed

He didn't want to have it anymore, but wanted his posts to stay around.

Yeah, we're certainly intending to remove them. I just mean it's easy to see for us even if no one reports it

I'm not going to say you shouldn't report spam posts, but I will say that generally it's not difficult to see which threads are spam threads, so it's not a big deal if they aren't reported. We are grateful for all posts in other topics though, they are harder to find when e.g. looking through the new posts page.

I’ve disabled PMs for new users. I would have preferred not to, but I think it’s more important to protect people from scammers than to make things convenient for new users. Maybe we should require posts from new users to be checked by moderators before posting. But I am less certain about that. It’s basically the same amount of work for moderating the forums (maybe a bit more, but not much), but I think it would be quite a bit more inconvenient for actual new users, especially if they come here to get help with the game and then they don’t see their post. I feel like that would be frustrating.

I've changed it for you.

I just wrote that as an explanation for why I had edited your post, so no need for you to do anything (For another time though: if you have a long piece of text you can put it inside a spoiler - click the eye symbol in the little area where you write/edit a post - that way anyone who wants/needs to read it can, but it won't make the post very long to scroll through if someone wants to read replies etc.)

I'm sure someone else has got a more informed solution, but just to rule out the obvious/easy ones: have you tried reinstalling the game? Have you checked that the drivers for your graphics card are updated?

I don't recall them being generally available, but maybe @OmriLahav can make something specifically available?

Unfortunately it can sometimes be down, which will give that error. But at least at the moment I'm writing this it's working.

I don't know if there still really is a treasury committee, or who's a member of it, but in general the report sounds good and it's hard to argue with money coming in to the project rather than going out

@GM_HongName is now changed, I deleted the new account you had created as you hadn't validated the email address, but the old one seems to work just fine

Seems like a new account has been created, so we can let that suggestion play out. In the future you can tag me and I can change it (if nothing else it means that the forum user doesn't have to use another email account - as the system doesn't allow two accounts to be registered with the same email address).
