Well when I tried to sign up it said I already had an account on here, so I guess I'm a renewbie or whatever. I forget how this thing works lol so I have a lot to learn

@chatoma - Welcome (back?) 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.
