Change the "No gm online" message
« on: February 02, 2013, 02:01:07 pm »
New players might not go on the forum, on the wiki, or might not know about IRC.
So my thought was to change the "Sorry, there is no GM available at the momment, try again later" to "Sorry, there is no GM available at the momment, try again later, or log on irc://irc.forestnet.org/2238help". Maybe that will help the rare new players to solve their would-be-problems, and it would also alleviate the possible false alarms since there are players on this channel who can help for most problems, not only game masters.

If the player doesn't know about forum/wiki/irc, would he know about the requesthelp command ?
Is it written somewhere ingame ?

If they do not check Forum/Wiki/IRC, then how would they know to use ~requesthelp?
Shit, didn't read that. Sorry naossano.

Anyway, I think it is fine as it is.
