It just blows my mind...

I mean, how many people are too inept to read? I mean really, it takes about 5 seconds to read and decide if you should proceed (even less if you're not an idiot), and doesn't even take that much brain power. Recent offenders:

Post FINISHED Add-Ons here

Literally 2 seconds and you can see what you should or should NOT post there. That's only 2 threads, and the worst ones aren't on the forum either. I host a server that's called "Roleplay. Seriously. (NO CITYRP)" and I STILL have people coming and saying "^help jobs" and asking if I'm hosting a CityRP. Even moreso, I've had someone come in and ask if I'm hosting the Boss Battle. That's just joining the server. Once they spawn, they're in a building where the rules are directly in their face, and there are messages EVERYWHERE telling them to READ, and somehow they still can't seem to comprehend that giant-ass text in their face every 3 seconds.

Oh yay:

I know what you mean. I put text near my builds saying what it is, and people STILL ask, "What is it?"

Damn it didn't work!

like i said, if you want players to read the tutorial you have to force them to



if you don't, they'll just skip it

-skips to bottom-

K I read it, and I entered the password.

It would be unnecessary for the players who don't need it, but you could make them click on every word in the rules or tutorial to let them see the password.

Yeah, roleplay in Blockland is impossible because every 1.5th person is a handicap who just ruins the roleplay for others.
Basically all roleplays turn out like this:
1.Join.
2.Build a crappy house.
3.DM.

[Bushido]

here's an idea: each topic in the tutorial gives you a part of the password



you have to put the parts of the password together like it says or you can't join the RP

Barnabas is building a new tutorial building which is going to be more fluid.

Fluid?

[Jaxx]

Better able to show the player ways to complete it, and not quite as jerky in the general movement of the player. AKA, it's easier to get through, and quicker.
