We've all sat staring, slack jawed, at the stream of gobble-de-gook some newbies type. This site I chanced upon might help us decipher what they're actually going on about ...

Ok double post, but its been ages lol ok.
Ive been testing something out this week, when i find myself playing with some newbies, and they slap me ect, ive spoken to them jokingly saying ooohhhh slap me harder ect.
Ive then found they actually talk quiet nicely to me, even in pm we have said hi where we live ect, so come on lets try to think back to when we was new and give them a chance to speak to us.
I ve done it lots and giving them the time of day helps them into the game in the right manner, and gives them some confidence to play the game instead of being annoying in the room.
Or am i being to slushy here, whats your views.:razz:

Slushy.. well and truly slushy Cherry of the Wild. Are you getting soft, woman!! :razz:

In all seriousness though, I try to be as accommodating as I can to certain types of new players - but throw in someone who is really being a right dingbat, then I normally lace up my pink timberlands :razz:
