I'm blind and use a screen reader. Someone sent me to the website for information on gear for my level, but the problem is that I can't seem to use most of it. Many of the areas are denoted in some way my screen reader doesn't recognize, so I can't click on a "players" link, for instance, and bring up whatever information might be there. It doesn't register as a link or anything else that might be clicked for more information or a menu or anything else. The help link at the top of the page is another I can't use. I can use the one at the bottom, but its information seems to be only a very basic F.A.Q. section. How might I get to the area with useful information for when you're already a player? Can you make a website that plays better with a screen reader?
For that matter, am I the only blind player? I've found other accessibility issues within the mud itself, such as things indicated only by color, which is no good to the blind.
