Glancing over the first few pages of that document reminded me of something that I hadn't noticed was now missing..... the Arrival Area.
After character creation I now remember entering a room with several displays in it, one display had some characters fighting a giant eremite (i think?), past there you went to the shuttle and there was an area where you were actually in the shuttle up to when it crashed.
These two things seem to be gone now, wonder why they took them out?

Russ.
Means somewhere mentioned that too much people newly trying out the game only got till arrival hall and not further. They got rid of it and don't want it back because it causes too much outflow of new people . _________________ Edta 190 NT, (setup), RL of TLfiveplus

That's a shame, I'm sure it could be argued that those without the commitment to walk from one end to the other would probably have left the game that same day anyway.
I remember back in 2005 when I was in a COD clan called MaFiA, several of us heard about Anarchy Online's free trial back then and jumped on our ventrillo server so we could all try it out. We spent quite a bit of time in that first hall chatting to the NPC's and examining the giant Eremite display.
If anyone is interested, I saved some of the screenshots I found of the arrival area on the forums and uploaded them to my webserver:
