The Warbears crisis.

I don't think the problem here is with the new people reading the guide at all.

There's a major decline of new people, they don't read rules or Guide, they break the rules, they're banned, they're not here.

Even if they're banned for 3 days, they say "Forget about that site" and don't come back.

I doubt I've read the entire guide aswell.

You know another problem that joins people getting banned, and lack of guide-readers together? Lack of knowledge. People just don't know where and what the rules are, and so they think they can act however they like.
Also, sometimes they get reported for repeating a line three, four times, not knowing it is spamming, the person reporting not giving the person a chance. Always give a warning, unless it is clear they know they are breaking the rules. (Now, this may sound far-fetched, but some people just report every mild instance of rule-breaking, to increase their chances of becoming moderators. That is likely a minority, but a reminder, that's not how the system works.)
If somebody yells in caps "HOW DO I DO (Insert action here)???!" chances are somebody's gonna tell them, "no spamming", and not even answer their question. Help them, give them what they need, and then gently tell them that repeatedly yelling in caps here might cause people to not like you. If we all did this, it would be a nicer society. (Yes, not all people do this. I know that.)
Others do get warned for spamming or whatever, perhaps for a good reason, perhaps not. The fact that warnings only show on your profile-and many new people don't even know they have a profile-might make them think that nothing is being done, and so they can do whatever the heck they like.
Yes, there are people who make an account just to get banned. Let them. Who cares about some immature teenager who has nothing else to do but see how many sites they can get banned from?

So, what do you think of what I said?

[Niall Calothycos]

For the most part, very good.

Every single one of those comments is people (from here, mind you) asking about the missions.

I don't think new people breaking the rules is the main problem, I'd say it's the unnecessarily hostile reactions from the older users.

The biggest problem about this site can be summed up quite efficiently just by skimming through this thread's subtext: Blaming its external issues on the community.

Old users and new users pointing fingers at each other... come on. I thirst for attention as much as the next guy, but I'm smart enough not to go around the zoo asking for monkeys to clean their own poop.

A think a major problem is getting involved with the community. Imagine what it would be like if WBN was actually active and had more of a point than just reporting people, or if you all took part in some more involved forum games, unlike "silly sentences" and more like RAF/Mafia/Werewolf/whatever.
