Couple newb qs.

1) How screwed is a loner? If I avoid contested zones like CB and do something like... follow Sesserdrix's leveling guide (Hello Misty and bards), will I be able to do my thing? Or will I be punked around wherever I go until I join some big guild?

2) Does the red forum community represent the game community accurately? Honestly, every time I see some trollish post by guys like Colgate I just wonder if playing with angsty teens is worth it.

3) Is it true that there was a guild called "Holocaust" on the server with lots of members named after nazis? It's stories like that which make me question how toxic the red community is.

4) Wtf does "Pras" mean? I see it spammed in OOC all the time.

The main "fungi twink" spots are Crushbone, Unrest and Mistmoore (ALL Faydwer).

If you're XP'ing anywhere else you'll rarely see one, maybe Upper Guk if you're very unlucky but I've never seen one in there.

I'd get in a guild like <Good Guys> or one of the smaller rising guilds. In a guild and group environment it's very different to the old veterans chatting about who got killed, why it was funny, who got mad etc.

There was a guild called Holocaust but it was disbanded by Sirken I believe. Reformed with most of the same people into what is now Empire.

Pras = giving praise for a most honorable kill <3

I've got three newb Qs. I'll try to keep it concise but I drone on sometimes.

1) Ok, so I'm a loner... and a loners gotta be alone. How f'd am I? Can I wander the world following Sesserdrix's necro leveling guide (O, hey Misty bard), and generally be alright if I stay out of those popular zones like CB, etc? Or... will I be spanked wherever I go unless I make some friends to watch my back?

2) Is the community as bad as these forums suggest? I mean, listening to posts by guys like Colgate just make it look like a total cluster of angst and trolling.

3) Wtf does "Pras" mean? It's spammed all day in OOC and my only guess is its like some slang for "praise" as in, "I like what just happened."

Thanks.

That's good to hear. I'll have to make a character tonight. I think I'll use blue for soloing and red for grouping.

Any directions for for guilds to look at?

First just /ooc lfg and level range, its global so you should see some people LFG or lfm relatively quick, second if your in the newbie area, invite anyone you see, the more people in your group the more xp you get!

Lastly, thunderdrom and Order through chaos are the two main leveling guilds.

But please be patient, the pop is low so keep that in mind as you get started! Good luck!!

Keep an eye out in ooc for guild recruitment messages - there's a few to look at.

Cool. Thanks for answering those Qs. I'll give it a try this weekend.

Why do fungis not have a level requirement here. Also those main fungi think spots are the only places you can really find groups. Crucial to the do bonus here.
