; What is HoboWars?
: HoboWars is a role-playing game where you play as a hobo and compete against thousands of players from around the world. It is played directly from your browser and is totally free. You can fight other hobos, train, join a gang, race in your very own shopping cart, own and train rats, beg for money, complete fun adventures, and heaps more!
; What does it cost?
: It's free! You can buy "[[points]]" and "[[Donator Status|Donator Packs]]" using real money, but that is completely optional. All game areas are accessible to all players, regardless of whether or not they choose to spend real money on the game.
; Who owns HoboWars?
: HoboWars is owned, developed, and managed by <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.hellbored.com/about HellBored Entertainment]</span>, an Australian company (ACN 111 157 852).

: We are always in need of players who are willing to help us update and maintain the HoboWars Help Wiki. If you are interested in helping us out, please follow the instructions detailed in the '''Notices: Helping Out''' section above. Thanks!
:Also, I'd like to give a shout-out to [[User:Gozmitjosh|Goz]], [[User:Missy|Missy]], [[User:Redneck|Redneck]], and [[User:T_burnout|burnEy]] for recently cranking out a bunch of individual articles for the various items found in the four versions of HoboWars. You guys have no idea how much I appreciate all of the time and effort you put into getting those articles created, updated, and maintained. Thank you!

;July 21, 2011
: [[User:Doody|Doody]], [[User:T burnout|burnEy]], [[User:Wanker|Wanker]], and I were granted administrator status today, which now allows us to more easily manage, maintain, and update the HoboWars Help Wiki! Also, there are plans in the works to give those with the slightest interest in helping us contribute, edit, and update the HoboWars Help Wiki the chance to finally do so! We just need to tidy up some things, protect some important pages, and establish some editing standards first. In the meantime, feel free to [[User:DoctorKnow|contact me]] in-game on any version if you are interested in helping us out! In order to be considered, you must have an account on any version of HoboWars, have played on that account ''actively'' for at least a year (and still play on it), and be a trustworthy member of the community. That's it!

: Oh hey, it's been more than a year since some sort of announcement was posted on here.
: Anywho... I'm currently interested in compiling a [[Game History]] article that would detail the significant game updates, game events, and community events of each HoboWars version, but I need help gathering information. If you have anything to contribute, or any questions, please [[User:DoctorKnow#My Hobos|contact me]] on any version. Thank you.

: Well, I took this main page layout from another wiki site and applied it here. Please let me know what you think about it. If it doesn't work out, we can always revert the main page back to its previous layout. Also, I know that the list to the right is a little long, but don't worry; I plan on condensing it later.
