OK we've gotten admin approval and Tech has built the barrier system for non member visitors, and we have tested it and the level 3 cap for visitors.

MS will now function as both a live ALFA server and an OAS. Password is gone as of today. We'll be testing how this works in terms of recruiting new members and how we all interact on it.

I hope we can gain some good RPers out of this by advertising it in DnD groups and NWN2 groups.

If thereis a DnD forum you frequent or an NWN2 community you frequent, advertising this would be cool.

Also advertise how to buy NWN2 with your post. This will help.

Neat. Is there information for our new players somewhere?

Eg...

We are Alfa, do not run!
You cannot leave the isles til we make sure you're cool, etc

A front page post for new players would be good.

Information is located in the start area via statues. I edited the main one to include RP tips and a link to the website.

I realize we likely won't see mass until we advertise, but I wanted a soft release so we are ready to go the minute we get people.

Is Public Relations going to be doing any advertising at all or will circulating information about this new feature in ALFA be a grass-roots effort?

A very good question. Public relations was one thing in particular I hoped the office of LA would be able to revive.

I suspect both. Hint: when people get bored of the Dalelands server they might wish to check us out as an expanded option for play.

A front page bit about this would be good.

Why not people from ALFA do stealth missions into other PWs, play there temporarily, and recruit other players directly? :P

Evil.
