Re: Ship Stats page - where's the key?

Let me add to this debate.

So, my brother is a returning PA player who wanted to dig into some of the stats to try and figure out what to build and what's good. I think some simple mouse-overs would suffice in helping him understand that spreadsheet. Perhaps even a mouseover for an explanation of what the hell the spreadsheet is (or being able to click on a "What is this?" bit of text with a drop down explanation) would help for even newer players.

i don't think you need to start erasing columns, as it can be both noob and pro friendly with just a bit of explanation.

I also agree that they shouldn't see this page first when signing up to play a game, but I don't think new players do. Instead they usually read the intro that explains the races and a bit about the game. They hit the stats page when they wanna get more involved.
