a mudplayer friend told me on MSN private channel about it after I got disapointed with the mud I use to play (poor rp and no pk regulation).

As the learning curve is big on CF, I think we should do everything to help newbies to pick a newbie-friendly first character (Assassin).

Also, when I look for a new mud I often end up on Top Mud site. So a reminder/pop up to vote on it when we log on should not be underestimated.
