They don't want to read a wall of text of how to register, they want to play.
They don't know the server, they don't know if it's worth it to register
I believe most of the new players don't even read these start up messages, tbh even I miss to read em.
Yup I support the idea.

People find it too much effort to start up there browser, go to sa-mp.nl and register. Now when they've registered they have to verify the mail. And now they have to wait a while and they can finally play. And any progres they made to that point is lost..
Every day many young lads that can barely say a word or two in english join this server. Those definitely need some time to understand how this whole web-site thing works. In-game registration would be much easier solution and it's a common thing for most of the sa:mp servers!

- Now, I don't really know if this is possible but, could we automatically register on the web-site once we have done it in-game??

An x amount of money so they can get started (buy props etc.)
Tbh I like it as it is now, cos it's really challenging!

But when I type /help I would just want a textdraw in the chat. (This could be only me)
However even if I'm the only one who hates the option boces, I would still like to be able to see the text appear in the chat (So I can read it later on instead of being forced into the box again)

Now imagine a server with 100 players, that would be completely impossible to read it at once. We aren't any close to this number alright but still, chat goes crazy from time to time, I think the option boxes are the best solution we got.

This so that admins know to give that player a bit extra care.
This sounds very cool, good idea.

So that players can get a tutorial if they type something like /tutorial (And then choose a tutorial).
For example, if they want a tutorial about teleporting, show them the ways of geting around by a few screens with nice textdraws.
Totally.
