Chances are they've already signed up before visiting the forums as you say. But there happens to be a freakin' big Forums link on the Planetarion portal iirc. And when (comedy 'if' option) the passport ever gets done then there's likely to be more people starting accounts then coming here to look for advice, to introduce themselves, to participate. Having five or six quit threads on the main thread listing of PD looks unprofessional, makes the game appear more stagnant than it perhaps is, doesn't give off the impression that PA
needs to be giving off if it's to entice new customers.
There's at least 10 quit threads on the main page of PD
right now, and that excludes ones by 'high-level' members like mods, and Spinner. Ten. And we're in the middle of a round. If it carries on like this we really would need a new forum for quit threads when R10 ends.
