I agree with a lot of what you said al3rt, but I think a player authentication system would be a little much. It would just be a hassle for admins and players alike. And a system like that doesn't really go hand in hand with AC's tendency to keep things simple. But yes--this is less about advertising the game and more about advertising the community. I think some kind of link from the game to the forum, however simple, is a good first step. It could be something as simple as incorporating the forum address into the loading screen of next release.
