Member Feedback Needed!

**Dust** · #1 July 3rd, 2019, 05:25 AM

Hello members of WCO!

The staff team is looking to create a guide to help newer members feel confident and informed when joining our community and roleplay.

We recognize that sometimes it can difficult for members to understand how to use certain functions upon joining, which can lead to frustration or becoming disinterested in the site. So by creating this guide we hope to make the experience more fluid & detailed for everyone! But we need your feedback!

Old, new, and everything in between is welcome to leave a comment on what was most difficult, either technically or personally, for you to understand when you were a new member. Any and all feedback is appreciated and, more importantly, helpful!

Please make sure to be descriptive so the staff team can be as specific as possible. Thanks so much for your help!

If you find yourself drawing a blank, here are some examples of what we are looking for:

"When I first joined, I had trouble navigating the website because I had never used an online forum before. This made it hard to find my desired category to roleplay in because I was unsure where to look." - OR - "I always found it difficult to find someone to rp with. I've always been a little shy, but even when I posted & bumped my finders no one seemed to reply! I was really confused on how to get people to roleplay with me and it really put me off."

When I first started to use the site, I couldn't figure out how the visitor messages would work. This is because I hadn't ever used a form set out like this before. I could not understand the way that the "view conversation" button worked because I thought I can see their post so, I'm viewing the conversation.

I hope this makes sense.

Regards,
Branch of Life

When I first joined the whole sure confused me honestly. But if never really used online RPs and I was bad and didn't read the info aside from basic rules and privacy stuff. I've now read everything more then once now don't worry.
Anyway the posting was confusing at first because I thought when I clicked on a thread the newest posts would show up first instead of the start of the post, which makes sense to me now.
That's probably the most confusing thing for when I joined, that I can remember

Honestly, as a new user, the thing that confuses me most isn't really the website- it's the history!

There are so many terms and battles that you hear about from older users on the site that you don;t understand! I think it would be a lot easier if there was, like, a history of the warriuors cats website. it would be inetersting to see all of the conflicts and their key players!

I may have not been clear. I meant, this site's Roleplay history. I know the mainseries books, I think it would be interesting to know the background of this site's characters and histories.

When I joined, I couldn't figure out why I couldn't join a clan or go to many of the forum threads

confused on what i can do when i first join as i have limit abilities so i feel i have nothing to do and it's not really explain that well so i'm kinda just shifting through the rules and what not trying everything out.

Hi! I'm new (literally JUST joined lol) and although I understand the limited abilities, The website layout is a bit...much...? Idk, I'll probably figure eveything out, but maybe It could be a bit confusing, and maybe instead og galaxy have a more plain background? Just a thought, over all very welcomed!
