Hi, my name is xylaphe. I'm british and I've just started playing this game. I have one dog and one cat and I love animals so I thought I'd try it out 😊

@xylaphe - 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 the blog, and to reply to people's comments you go to their wall instead.

Urgh, British. Not sure why, but that word annoys me... but that isn't your fault, so I have no idea why I'm mentioning that.
