Hello, Guest Users!
Right now, there are 5 members, and 116 "Guests" logged onto 40k Online.
So why do we have so many Guests? Registering is super easy, all you need is an email account and you can get a free one from pretty much any of the major players. It only takes a couple of minutes, and you get all kinds of benefits from doing so!
In particular, there's a feature that lets you click on "Recent Posts" and it brings up all of the topics you haven't seen yet, or replies to topics you've already looked at. In short, it makes it so you don't have to click on all of the boards to see what's new. One click, and everything new comes to you!
Even better, is you can get
involved! Everybody starts somewhere. Maybe you ask a couple of questions about how to make the most of your favourite unit. Maybe you're wondering how to make a certain type of terrain, or how to get a certain effect from painting. You can ask any of those questions. You don't have to wait for someone to do it for you.
You don't have to post, or do anything, but the benefit of having the "Recent Post" button be available is pretty sweet, for the time it takes to come up with a User Name and Password. Who knows, maybe you'll get stuck in once you can. The truth is, there are fewer people posting. That makes the site less fun to hang out at. If you join, you can post, which gives other people a reason to look in and see what's new and exciting.
So yeah. You now have had someone cordially invite you to join, ye of the Guest ranks. Have at 'er. At the very least, there will be new names to look at.
