Hi! I joined about 3 days ago. My best friend wanted me to get on Eggcave and I was like "fine!" I am now really glad she stole my computer. I am 12 years old and I accept random friend requests, although I don't trade yet because all my creatures are eggs( So far!)

@athena1 - Welcome to Egg Cave! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

If you are replying to someone, you should ping them. Otherwise, they won't know that you've done so. To ping someone, either click the bell icon under their username in the forums, or type an @ followed by their username (e.g. @sparklefox ). You can only ping up to five people per post. Sorry if you knew this already.

Checking out the Forum Rules and the Site Guidelines would be an easy way to start. Other useful links are the FAQ and eCode.

A common mistake from newbies is that they'll ping and reply to people using their own wall. Pinging does not work out of forums, and to reply to people's comments you go to their wall instead.

I hope you enjoy your time here~

@sparklefox Thank you! That was super helpful, and I'm probably going to use this a lot! 😉
