Membership at #openttdcoop?
As a community founded in order to develop concepts for huge train networks in OTTD our networks nowadays are far more complex compared to the tracks we built at the very beginnings of #openttdcoop. Despite this positive development we have to face the problem that it is more and more challenging for new players to join us. Regarding this challenge we aim to support new players that try to join us as much as possible and tutor them ingame.
To achieve a good tutorial guidance ingame we decided to restructure our community a bit. From now on players will have a certain status. On the one hand there are members who know the rules, the usual tricks and concepts of our community. On the other hand there are the apprentice OTTD players who are very welcome to watch and build with us under the guidance of our active members. Since our active members want to play by themselves and we want to ensure a high quality tutorial help to our new members we decided to restrict the numer of apprentices in our games to one per full member playing. Therefore we frequently change our company password. Playing issues are discussed - as usual - in our IRC channel.
Current Members are: guru3, dp__, Mucht, Roo, ShaggZ, StarLite, Xahodo, thgergo.
How to become a member at #openttdcoop?
