With all due respect, the Help pages in MBOL suck at this point.

Maybe it's something to do with my system (which I doubt, because the same things happen on two completely different PCs), but when I access the "Help" page immediately after loggin in, I get only a page talking blandly about what teh game is about. The advertising page, really.

From the "Summary" screen, I get a "This page cannot be displayed" message when ever I try the help button.

The only way I can see any help pages is by accessing a shortcut I gave myself from one of the posts in the Beta Testers area.

For newcomers, the help pages are going to be their guide to learning teh game. If they cannot easily answer the questions they have, they will bolt.

I know that if I saw what I'm seeing now as a newcomer, and was being asked to pay for the game, I would leave without a second look..........

I agree. The help pages should be top notch before charging any money. Some items have no help whatsoever. Others repeat the help file from the CD game which doesn't necessarily apply to the online game.

Example: "The Financial Screen is accessed through the News Menu."

Actually, it's accessed through the League Menu. There is no News Menu online.

The scouting report help talks about a "bunt" rating for batters.
The "health" rating is not mentioned.

The league menu talks about city and stadium editing. (not found online).
