I got an email the other day that brought this to my attention: People are still going to my site for Quest help.

Now maybe its at a rate of 4 or 5 people a day, but if you know me (and most of you don't) you know I loves to helps the peoples.  Cheesy

So I'm asking all of you (if you've played years, months, days, 30 min) to look over my site and let me know (either on this post or via email - vj@veggie-juice.com) what I can do to update it.

IE:
Broken links
Inactive People I listed for help
Active People willing to help new guys
Old features no longer available
New features not mentioned
Common Bugs not mentioned
Common Errors not mentioned
Useful links
Any suggestions at all

Or if you feel its so outdated, it'd be best if I revamped completely or simply leave a Quest Link in place of the site, I'd like to know.

here is the full version link
http://www.veggie-juice.com/quest.html
here is the text version
http://www.veggie-juice.com/textquestwt.html

Thanks for your attention,
veggie.

well believe it or not vj, ur site is still the best newb guide we have, so when noobs come on asking every question possible, its just much easier to send them to your site than explain it to each person every time .

its good to teach everyone the basics, and im sure u'll find people to suggest if anything needs to be improved and how.

Oh, you know me and my MMORPG tendencies. I get sucked up and held for a while. Plus, I completely missed when the site changed address, and just recently corrected the links on my pages.  But, I blame myself.

BUT for now, I'm back. I've been talking to a couple of people in game, and I'm getting really excited about some ideas I'm getting from them. So look forward to some new stuff in the future from other players.

Still - always looking for inspiring ideas, and ways to be more useful.

Ok so here are some errors i have found...

first page - the links need to be updated (but u already knew that)
page 1.3

ok the stats are obviously from an older age of quest.
About Stats:

HP --> Hit points. When you run out of these, you are dead! (Good)
MP --> Mana points. This is your pool for casting. (maybe points for casting spells? fishing is not part of the game yet Smiley )
STR --> Strength. Determines your attack/berserk damage. (good)
DEF --> Defense. Reduces the damage monsters do to you. 3 of these will add 1 to your total defense. (maybe add somthing about the max effictive total def is 95, and thet total def = % damage blocked)
DEX --> Dexterity. Increases credit you get for Dodge/Parry combat skills, thus making them develop faster. Dex also increases your chances of first attack and successful flee. (this is obviously old... dex determines who attacks first. If your dex = 72% of your lvl or greater, you get first attack)
INT -->  Determines the damage of offensive magic spells. (good)


I would also suggest on that page that there are only 3 classes that give 5 MP per lvl, and that even if you are not thinking ov solely using magic it is helpfull to get that bonus so it is suggested you use one of those (honestly i cant remember what they are... lol )

page 2/3 Huh (the page numbering should, i think, be more uniform)
The "Just Click Here" text should be swapped with Click Here to retrieve your password to start playing quest... and that wont be needed as of next version according to jouser (and we should all compliment him for that, the password retrieval was a pain) so this whole section is going to need to be revised.

page 4 and 4.2...
add the NPC (pretty new addition) and note that you can trade with some NPC's, and often get advice or bits of knowledge by talking with them

page 4.3 and 4.4 maybe have a screen of the "detailed stats" and explain what things like exptln and the difference between def and total def are...

there is an image on this page that is dead... dont know what it is but it needs to be fixed

page 4.5 and 4.6... tell the noobs what that enterance between town and the mine is all about...

page 5 and 5.2...
the monster images dont come with quest, thats an additional download... it should be noted for those who dont have the pack installed that they wont see pictures of monsters and will need to download/install the monster pack to see monsters...

page 5.3 and 6...
note that the game remembers what stats u used last so if u want to add stats to different things at lvl 3 the stats u chose before will already be selected and u need to first subtract from the stats u dont want...

page 8 and 8.2....
plz explain what all those other options do... we all know to turn noscroll off but what does it do exactly?!?  these optoins should be explained what they do and how they effect the game.

also

explain that u can change your password by pressing F3, and how to terminate your charactor if u feel the need to. Note that terminating a char will result in the loss of everything, including gold and items in the bank

also talk about clans, their cost, and what they are used for


great page still the best place for noobs to find out how to play.

oh one other thing... i found myself scrolling all over it may be hard to do and take some time but if u use frames and percentages instead of set image spacing u can have the page scale to the person's screen no matter what their resolution is. would help to prevent from needing to scroll all over the page on smaller screen sizes, but thats more of a lesser worry than the afore mentioned stuff :p

oh one last thing is the "book" should continue to the appendixes and everything... and the list of names should be updated for ppl that are currently active. Also Bel is gone so u can remove him, and u can add me (also on as The_Noob and Noobilator) cuz i been on rather regularly as well...

thats about it! Thanks for the great site
