Treasure island (New players; can be a rich place for you)

[Gyrus]

Treasure island...

I figured out that like every forum. CANTR forum also has a lot of posts just related to personal problems. ( i also created some of those ). But specialy for newcomers, it is really hard sometimes to find important topics and threads. So I thought to start a topic which is a summary of old topics which were valuable as a treasure.

I hope you will make some contributions, and your treasure chests. This will be good for newplayers, also a nostalgia for veterans.

I could only dig pages 15-19 of Generall discussion in 4 days , i will continue editing this thread ... Lets keep it updated

Idea:FAQ
Before I started this thread, I looked in earlier threads on FAQs. They all immediately deviate from the FAQ idea, though, in directions like newbie guides and test environments. Now, if we're really talking about FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions), what questions are frequently asked?

Very nice post ... If anyone has additions, please list them below, but keep it limited to the really core items, otherwise it just becomes a huge index to the forum ... We might edit or remove your post, so that this stays a clean thread concerning an easy overview.

Well done, Gyrus!

Just replace the id of the topics in the URL to the ones in the links.

Can't there be a redirect somehow? :S
