Game FAQs
'''Q - I used to play/still play pen and paper D&D. Exactly how similar is DDO?'''

'''Q - The interface to the game is not what I'm used to, and I'm having difficulties doing some things. Got any help for me?'''

A - See if the Players manual has any tips to get you going.

'''Q - I can create a link to an anchor on a page (ex. Bard_spells ), but that doesn't seem to work on a redirect. What gives?'''

Q - Should I create the new topic "Cool items" or "Cool item"?

A - If you intend to create a list (or category) of cool items, name the topic "Cool items" (or "Category:Cool items" ). If you intend to describe what is a cool item, just name it "Cool item".

Q - Should I create the new topic "Cool Items" or "Cool items"?
