Dimex,
I hope you made it here. I wanted to add to my advice under "newbie race":
Watch out for the "GrowlTigga Tigless". They will berate and insult you every time you make a mistake. Every time you do something right they will make sarcastic remarks.
The Messages pop up in the middle of the screen, I have not figured out how they do that.

Blustering? Poppycock? verbal flatulence? oh dear oh dear, there speaketh a desparate man who thinketh not of anything better

Nice try Gryph but not that successful - given the gyp you gave me on private emails, I am not going to respond in kind - it would be embarassing to see a grown man cry

GrowlTigga,
To avoid whitnessing the tears of a grown man, avoid reflections of tine own.
As for email gyps, A real gentlman would not have mentioned that here.

Hmmm, Mac, TS, SJ, Phoenix and possee - I am not 100% convinced with Gryphin's explanation - sounds llike a drowning man clutching at seagulls if you ask me

Mephisto, I was in Frankfurt and then Hamburg just before Xmas, sauerkraut and other brassica related products, offal based bready products, dodgy black bread and horrible white sausages looking like horses doofers were all rapidly being consumed by your countrymen!

Gryphin is correct.... We use it a work when the high level management drop by to tell us what were doing.

A 'Dog and pony Show'

Were the animals..
