Hello all, this is just a suggestion that would help alot of newcomers and maybe even a few that have been playing for a while but havnt expanded from regular play. The suggestion is a vocab or dicionary option that defines all words or meanings used in CC. Games type words such as assassin, terminator, etc. freestyle, sequential etc, now I know that alot of these are pretty routine words that dont need it, but not all persons playing Speak english very well or understand all the game lingo. This striclty a flow type option, that helps those who are too shy to ask for help or just go about it in the wrong manner. I would appreciate some feedback on this option please. All else if you have anything to add or a way to tweek please respond as this is just a raw idea.

Ask and ye shall receive! Glossary of Conquer Club Terms

It's not perfect and could probably use additions. If you have ideas on how to improve the glossary post in the thread and you could be a big help.

and probably a list of terms that are commonly used on Conquer Club like "gg" and stuff. When Istarted playing, I had no idea what a lot of these "gamer" terms meant.

For example..."deadbeat" didn't mean much to me until it was explained really well. If players are going to post ratings, they need to know what the tags mean, right?

I suggested something similar for foreign language users over a year ago ... and was firmly told it was not necessary.

If someone was to take the topic sully mentioned, and tweak it and get it up-to-date, we could look into stickying in the Information Category somewhere, and also perhaps linking to it in the FAQ if desired.
