Title: What were you doing when you joined FH?
Post by: Whinp on July 06, 2014, 05:26:26 pm

What are the most "noobish" -- not mean in a offensive way -- things you would do when you first joined FeralHeart?


Haha when I first joined FH I:

~ Didn't know how to walk and spent some 10 minutes trying to figure how to walk (I wasn't familiar with the WASD thing lol)

~ Was impatiently waiting in Lonely Cave for someone to show up, and me thinking "Why is no one showing up :'<"

~ Got lost in South Pole when trying to search for the North Pole

~ Asking people how they did grey characters (Wasn't familiar with RBG thing at that time lol)

~ Asking how did you fly (My first character was a feline creature with wings... ;_;)

~ I thought General was meant for staff

~ I tried to chat with someone on Whisper on local, lol good times


Now let me ask you: what did you do when you first joined FeralHeart?

I didn't know how to talk and I covered my wolf in scars and I 'pretended' to be dead.

Welp, I found FH, but couldn't get it, but she got it first so when I made my char I was able to find out how to color the wings and how to fly since I did a bit of research. But after I had gotten it myself and a person tried to friend me I kept looking all over the website for the two pawprints and it took me ten minutes to see the ones that were in game. My typing skills were awful too lol. And I don't think I knew how to sit down or lay or anything for a good long while.

I remember when I first got into the game itself I had no idea how to move the screen around.
I also didn't know that General didn't work, so I kept trying to talk to people in there.
I only got to Fluorite after about 2 days of playing? Maybe longer.
XD Wow.

I was a lucky one to have already known someone who was familiarized with FeralHeart's maps and controls before I joined the game myself back in the year 2011. He helped me with a majority of the character actions and portal locations the first day I joined but even then, I still had some unfortunate occurrences.

I remember havin' gotten lost in Fluorite Plains. I thought I was never gonna get out of that map 'n that I would be stuck there for the rest of my FeralHeart life.
I had no idea about the "Go Home" option that, at the time, would transport my character back to Bonfire Island.
It took me a while to figure out how other members were able to plop their heads down and curl up.
I got lost in South Pole countless times when the map was added onto the game.

Plus no doubt a couple of other things though what I've listed above is all I can recall currently.

When I first joined I:
1) made a charrie with wings)
2) Spoke in 'Local' when no one was around and got annoyed when no one answered
3) got stuck in the Lonely Cave
4) Got lost in the South Pole
5) Found my way into Ficho but didnt know the portal back to the Lonely Cave was behind the waterfall so I'd delete my charries
6) Crashed someone's rp and almost got myself reported
7) Didnt realise you can make more than one charrie

...Yeah I was pretty stupid when I first joined.

IDK man, it was long ago, probably way back in 2011 when I joined, or even before or after that. I don't remember.

I do remember (and still have, for sentimental reasons) my first character, Oceanclaw. Her name may have changed, though, but I can't be sure. She's this neon blue/cyan sparklewolf and stuff. I had no idea what I was doing, so yeah, I just ran around Bonfire Island, and I also remember it was night.

When wings came out, I remember South Pole kept crashing, and running around asking how to fly. I kept forgetting how.

Not sure if this is on topic, but I practically predicted the wings/items release. On the day of the release, before it came out (without knowing about it), I edited the bulletin file thingy to say something along the lines of "For Christmas, we want wings! And maybe items, too!". You should have seen how excited and surprised I was when the update actually happened.

Back on topic, a notable character of mine is Winterpaw. She is a (giant ice blue sparkly magical) wolf who was in a bunch of rps, but I remember that I might've powerplayed or something, hahaahahaa. Good times.

 It took me a second to realize you could just do WASD, and I went into Ficho Tunnel. I just swam in the water and I had NO idea how to get out. xD So I swam down the waterfall and my friend that I knew from real life arrived, so I clicked on her, and I found out how to whisper. She came running towards me and I barreled her with questions. "How do you fly? How do you lie down?" She kindly responded to all of my questions, and I was good to go.

(P.S. Cape use to be my favorite map. xD)

The very first thing i dod on FH was get stuck in the south pole. I really didnt know that there were more than one map so i was pretty upset with the game. But then i realized that there were indeed mere maps. Then i couldnt figure out how to fly. I also didnt understand why other people couldnt see my preset when i made it. Then i probably did a bunch of other stupid stuff too but i dont remember. It was a great time XD

I didn't know that there were other chats, so when I was in a group while everyone else was talking in group I'm there responding to everything in local. I had assumed that the colors where just saying that someone in your group was talking.

Neon Simba. *sits in the corner to cry*

I randomly went up to people all the time.

I didn't know how people recorded videos of FH and thought it was by taking TONS AND TONS OF SCREENSHOTS

I remember not knowing any of the controls (I was able to figure out w,a,s,d though =P), and I had no idea about any of the buttons on the bottom of the screen, how to lock your char's head in place, how to move the view camera, or anything. Only the w,a,s,d controls.

Confused, I started pressing all the keys on my keyboard but of course nothing seemed to be working. I accidentally ran into the portal to South Pole and completely just dashed off, unaware of where I was going. I remember running into this pack of arctic wolves and one of them saying something along the lines of; "O.o hey look a fox"

Being the n00b I was (and forgetting to turn off caps lock from my keyboard-pressing spam) I responded; "IM NOT A FOX IM A WOLF" Of course the pack was confused and all of them disconnected until one remained; the one who mistook me as a fox. I began to ask her all these stupid questions "Why is there an invisible wall here?? How do I move my charrie's head? Why does my charrie look where ever I look?" etc. Luckily she was patient and got be going with the controls a little better ^^ After I got the basics down she and I walked all the way to Atlantis, and "showed me how to swim" and "how to die" xD She also told me how to sit, lay, how to use all the actions and emotes, and even send me a friend request<3 She was there for me whenever I had a new question about the FH game

However, when I had a question about the game and she wasn't online... all hell broke loose x3

Ah, my n00b days.
I remember starting in Bonfire and having a hideous character named Destiny. I had no clue what I was doing and just walked around talking in caps because I have that habit {It's even worse now.} trying to get a mate because it seemed to be the "cool" thing to do.

I also never knew there were other maps besides Bonfire and was stuck there for almost a month until I realized there was a portal sitting there in plain site, kuekue.

Well, when I joined right at the start, I didn't understand the portals... and I also managed to press 'C' very early on, which meant that the chat box didn't show. So that was fun.

The WASD thing wasn't new to me, but I didn't think to use it - the camera altering thing was REALLY hard for my one-track mind to grasp, too. I couldn't press both the arrow keys and WASD, so I was always running at odd angles to the camera. X'D

Didn't understand the 'M' (Male) and 'F' (Female) thing either... LOL. I would just stick those two letters randomly after my names because I thought it was cool. Must of confused quite a few people. X'D

Also had to panic and close the game MANY TIMES because I got stuck in f3, or pressed Q.

I was also quite scared of the internet people, so I'd just sit awkwardly by them (Didn't know of SB) and listen in. X'D
(Some were quite nice about my obvious noobishness)

That's all I can think of.

Oh yes~

I didn't understand what 'M' and "F' stood for, I just thought people put those in their name for no reason and that M and F happened to be popular so I'm there with a character like Ally Z Wolf or something XD

I was in South Pole once and I heard these people talking in General who sounded pretty cool, so I ran all over SP trying to find them and when I did I sat a little bit away from them and they called me a stalker ;-;

Very very tragic backstories and pitch black characters

I made characters that were the alphas of packs and wondered why no one was joining my group when I didn't even advertise..
