I went through the reg process, then put my game in the announcement section, it was up there ok for 30mins, then bam gone and I got deleted of the users, I suppose roguelike is only roguelike if your game is what they want.

Not sure whats going on there, perhaps they want you to settle in a bit before posting up a cold ad for your game - I dunno.

Perhaps you posted your first post about your game in the wrong forum, or you need to introduce yourself first?

I've checked the member list and there is no gameleaper, so I guess they've removed your account?

Might be worth contacting Slash (http://forums.roguetemple.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1) or another moderator, have a word with Darren Grey (http://forums.roguetemple.com/index.php?action=profile;u=201) - they both have personal web pages you can no doubt contact them through.

In fact Darren hosts the podcast roguelikeradio.com, and is active on twitter and what not.

Explain that you're a new roguelike developer and you thought you could sign up get some advice and feedback about your design. Ask them what is the protocol for joining the community. IIRC I just signed up, and then started reading, and posting up about my experiences with playing roguelikes.

They're all a nice bunch of people who really are passionate about roguelikes, playing and developing them.

that's great info, I will look into it, you know a lot of stuff about games spelk, I thought Roguelike may have been a cult following, but your a real guru spelk thanks

Meh, Sandra's okay. Not a big fan of her acting, though oddly enough I laughed a lot when I saw Miss Congeniality. The Net was just groan-worthy throughout, seeing how Hollywood views teh mid-90z Intarwebz.

Miss Congeniality was fun, :)

Ah no worries. I guess you must have got a response back from Slash, and now you're an official member of the Temple of the Roguelikes? I saw your post over there in the Early Devs section.

Did you get a lot of feedback from Tigsource?
