Errors on Homepage

Can't connect

Illarion client error message: "Can't establish connection - Maybe the server is not online or you have no internet connection." or "Connecting to Server, Can't connect!"
There can be two reasons for this: Either you are using Windows 95 (please take a look here for a possible solution) or the server is offline. (you can check whether Server is online or not on the main page)

There is another reason. The other reason is that your internet is down. Also, there were several grammatical errors on the homepage. I shall post them here.

Wear and tear is determined but how often the items is used.

It should be: *By* how often the *item is used*, or *items are used*.

i was trying to do a service by helping with the grammar of the site. Have you satisfied your curiousity yet?

Alatar · Post by **Alatar** » Mon Feb 24, 2003 8:34 pm

Calm down please.

I'm very thankful that someone takes the time to review the websites, so here is a BIG BIG thank you for paul!

It would be easier for myself, if you post the related website (like 'us_vocations.php').

All reported errors until this post are fixed.

Good work Paul, you could try going through the whole page copying stuff into a text file as you go along, then once you have finished sort it all out and post it altogether, perhaps that will get some people off your back for posting seperately

2. Gamemaster

Some players have characters with Game master (GM) status. Their task is to keep order within the game. They can punish misbehaviour in a number of unpleasent ways, or notify administrators for some even more unpleasent punishment. These special characters should not be disturbed when busy, with the possible exception of very urgent cases. Lying to gamemasters, and exploiting bugs constitute serious offences, and will be dealt with harshly. The Game masters' privacy is respected. Their other characters will not be named unless specifically requested by the GM him/herself.

(from the rules)

*misbehavior

*unpleasant

*unpleasant
