 > ... I followed these steps (after playing with the settings for a bit
 using the built-in bridges (PTs). And got the following msg when I clicked
 on 'connect':

 This prompt is expected when there are bridge settings but the user clicks
 "Connect" (which means direct connection without bridges). You can also
 see this prompt if you Configure and choose a bridge and then go back to
 the main screen and click "Connect." Do you have a suggestion for
 alternate wording of this message to make it clearer?

 > I think this is a bad experience but I want to know if the experience is
 like this for real or if this is a bug before opening a ticket.

 Maybe I misunderstand the steps you did to get to this error message, but
 I don't think that this is a typical experience for our users (users who
 edit about:config to change TorLauncher's preferences are not common; it
 is not recommended). The steps that Mark provided are missing at least one
 thing that you need to do to get a true "first run" experience: find your
 torrc and make it an empty file.
