Thanks a lot for this, I think it helps with bringing out the account system more and makes it seem less obscure.
Maybe the first part of the message could be rephrased to:
To create an account, please visit:
'https://auth.zandronum.com/register [^]'
Though it's ok as it is I suppose.
I would at least rephrase the latter part of the message to:
If the server is using another auth host,
you must register there instead.
Contact the server host for more info.
to make it a bit clearer.
I would also make the link appear in gray color instead of red, to make it easier to read.
And maybe the "---Notice---" line appear in green or something, whatever looks right and stands out more.
What do you think? |

I saw you made an edit to the message, appreciate it.
The grammar still feels a bit off though.
"If the server is using their own auth host"
It's a singular server, but with a plural "their". Shouldn't it be "its own" if you want to suggest the server host owns the auth server?
And it would probably still look better with the link being in gray color. |

...does it really matter if either "its" or "their" is used in this context? Both cases are still grammatically correct, and the use of plural pronouns such as "they" or "their" to refer to a singular noun (e.g. server) has existed for centuries. I'm really not going to create another commit and merge request again just to change a single word if the current wording is still acceptable.

Unfortunately, MENUDEF doesn't offer ways to colourize text differently than whatever menu text colours are specified in the "GameInfo" block in MAPINFO, so this isn't so easy to do.
If there's nothing else wrong with the tip message as it currently is, I'd prefer to resolve this ticket and move on. |

Yes, no problem. Great work, thanks. |
