When you log into the server, you can do so as a guest, use an existing account (which is stored with the password) or create a new one.

 

 

  Username: This is a unique nickname (or "handle") which will identify you on the server. Choose the carefully, since it is one of the things that cannot be changed. You should avoid names of famous player or computer programs (e.g., “Kasparov” or “Fritz”).

 

  Password: After you have created an account you will have a password. You can make your computer remember it, so that in future you only need to click "OK" or hit Enter when you log in.

 

  Enter as guest: You can enter the playing zone as a guest, for instance if you only want to snoop around a bit to see how everything works. There are a number of privileges that you will not have if you enter only as a "guest".

 

  Create a new account: Use this to create a full account and receive all the privileges of a full member.

 

  Get passport hint: If you have forgotten your password it will be emailed to you. This only works if you have entered your email address in the User data
