-To those thinking of playing and those currently playing. I would suggest going to another game. Yes, it is a fun game, but this current staff has ruined it. There used to be reasonable people on the staff who would do their jobs and not act like assholes, those days are over.
+You are welcome to join Cantr II. However, before proceeding, please read the following text carefully. It might save you a few disappointments later on.
-PD only looks after their friends, members of the staff and former members. If you have an incident occur that is serious, you will be lucky if they take it seriously. I have had incidents where they did nothing and they were confirmed blatant CRBs and serious ones at that. Yet, if you aren't in the good ole boys club, and they get a hard on for you then they'll do everything they can to ruin the game for you. The PD has currently been harassing me for about a month now over some personal issues. Some of them lost characters to some of mine and were in danger losing more to a pirate character of mine. The result was that they decided to take OOC action to prevent the deaths of these characters. They used their positions to protect their own and the characters of former staff members.
+First, Cantr II is probably unlike most other online games you`ve played. The idea is to simulate the development of societies - there is [[roleplay]] allowed (and encouraged); there is building allowed (and encouraged); there is violence allowed (and to some extent encouraged, although there are limitations on it) - but none of those three things is the end goal of the game. The game will be the most fun if you participate in this process - if you interact with others around you, and if you find nothing is happening, just do something!
-Development - (ProgD and RD) These people mostly work when they have too. I worked behind the scenes and was able to see what they really did. I used to think they worked hard too, but I realized that it was all a rouse. These people have pages upon pages of backed up development projects in the development forums. Most of these would be posted there and half would be ignored and eventually end up in the back pages of the forums. The other half might get a comment or two from development. This happens sporadically and there might be one or two comments made, it will get backlogged and half a year later some new member will come along and bump the topic. I tried to spur them into getting things done, which was effective at times, some older projects were completed because I kept spurring them into doing them. But most old topics bumped would be ignored like they had been for years. Many of these weren't major projects, plenty of these projects weren't even difficult to implement, they were something that could be added in one to two days. Another thing to note is that they do not treat everyone fairly in the suggestion forums. It is supposed to be a place where people can come to present their ideas for the game and they will be considered fairly. The truth is, if you really want your idea to be approved then become a member of staff. Look at how many accepted/implemented suggestions are by members of staff alone, especially development. The percentage of suggestions made by development staff that has been accepted/implemented is way beyond the percentage of the forum members made up by development staff. There a lot of people who have good suggestions in the suggestion forums, but their suggestions will not be approved because they are not in the club. I've even seen where development members (Greek and Echoman namely) will vote down suggestions, not because they are bad, but because they are too lazy to implement them. Even if they have 90% approval, if they are too lazy to implement it, it will not be accepted.
+PLEASE NOTE: If your idea of a good time is to leave a trail of corpses behind you, Cantr II is not the game for you.
 Cantr now has a system of genetically transferrable [[Skills|skills]] which influence how effective you are at different things your character does.

	+
	+	Also: Cantr II is set in a fairly realistic world. The technology level is strange - it is possible to build cars and radios in a world where a state-of-the-art tool is likely to be a pitchfork - but there is no magic of any kind built into the game. (Now, if your character wants to pretend there`s magic, or believe things have happened by the power of some god, that`s another matter...)

	+	Second, the Web-based interface makes Cantr II a fairly slow-paced game. Please be patient! It might take you three or four days to walk to the next location. It might take a day or two for the person you`re talking to to log in and respond. It`s possible that even if you can see 40 people standing in your location when you say something, none of them are there to respond immediately!

	+	Third, the in-game economy and laws are entirely determined by the players. The game`s code provides the means to produce physical objects; what you do with those is not (and will not be) coded. No social structure will be coded. No concept of ownership will be coded. No rules or laws will be coded, beyond some limitations on violence. The two requirements imposed by the game are that characters need to eat, and that death is final and permanent...

-Sveiki atvykę į Cantr II pasaulį. Kaip bebūtų, prieš  nuspręsdami pradėti, idėmiai perskaitykite tekstą žemiau. Tai padės jums vėliau išvengti nusivylimų.
+You are welcome to join Cantr II. However, before proceeding, please read the following text carefully. It might save you a few disappointments later on.
-Visų pirma Cantr II tikriausiai pasirodys visai nepanašus į kitus žaidimus internete, kuriuos jums galbūt teko žaisti. Pati žaidimo idėja-imituoti bendruomenės vystymąsi. Čia galima pasirinkti bet kokį vaidmenį, statyti namus, naudoti smurtą (su kai kuriais apribojimais) - bet nei vienas iš šiu trijų išvardintų dalykų nėra žaidimo esmė. Žaidimas bus daug įdomesnis jei jūs bendrausite su kitais žaidėjais ir pastebėję, kad nieko įdomaus nevyksta padarysite KAŽKA!
+First, Cantr II is probably unlike most other online games you`ve played. The idea is to simulate the development of societies - there is [[roleplay]] allowed (and encouraged); there is building allowed (and encouraged); there is violence allowed (and to some extent encouraged, although there are limitations on it) - but none of those three things is the end goal of the game. The game will be the most fun if you participate in this process - if you interact with others around you, and if you find nothing is happening, just do something!
-PASTEBĖJIMAS: Jei jūs manote, kad smagiausia šitame žaidime po savęs palikti lavonų krūvas-šitas žaidimas ne jums.
+PLEASE NOTE: If your idea of a good time is to leave a trail of corpses behind you, Cantr II is not the game for you.
-Taip pat: Cantr II sukurtas taip kad butu kiek įmanoma panašus į realų pasaulį. Tiesa pasakius, technologijos lygis čia keistokas - galima kurti automobilius bei radijo siųstuvus kai tuo pačiu metu šakės atrodo, kaip meistriškumo ir išsivystymo viršūnė. Bet daiktams kurti magijos čia neprireikia. (Tačiau jei jūsų veikėjas tiki magiškom jėgom jis gali manyti, kad daiktai atsiranda padedant dievam, bet čia jau kitas reikalas)
+Also: Cantr II is set in a fairly realistic world. The technology level is strange - it is possible to build cars and radios in a world where a state-of-the-art tool is likely to be a pitchfork - but there is no magic of any kind built into the game. (Now, if your character wants to pretend there`s magic, or believe things have happened by the power of some god, that`s another matter...)
-Antra, Cantr II pakankamai letas žaidimas. Turėkite kantrybės! Jums gali prireikti trijų ar keturių dienų, kad nueitumėt iš vienos vietovės į kitą. Jums gali prireikti dienos ar dviejų, kad žmogus, kurio jūs kažko paklausėte jums atsakytų. Gali būti, kad nei vienas iš 40 žmonių esančių vietovėje kurioje jūs kažką pasakėte neatsakys jums iš karto.
+Second, the Web-based interface makes Cantr II a fairly slow-paced game. Please be patient! It might take you three or four days to walk to the next location. It might take a day or two for the person you`re talking to to log in and respond. It`s possible that even if you can see 40 people standing in your location when you say something, none of them are there to respond immediately!
-Trečia:žaidimo ekonomiką ir įstatymus kuria patys žaidėjai. Žaidimas suteikia galimybę gaminti įvairius objektus, bet tai ką jūs darysite su tais objektais nėra griežtai numatyta. Nėra numatytos bendruomenės struktūros, nėra nuosavybės sąvokos. Pradžioje nėra įstatymų ar taisyklių, išskyrus šiokį tokį smurto apribojimą. Yra tik du privalomi dalykai:veikėjas privalo valgyti, kad gyventų ir tai, kad mirtis neišvengiama ir visa ko pabaiga.
+Third, the in-game economy and laws are entirely determined by the players. The game`s code provides the means to produce physical objects; what you do with those is not (and will not be) coded. No social structure will be coded. No concept of ownership will be coded. No rules or laws will be coded, beyond some limitations on violence.
