Welcome there newbies, from the land of newbian I presume.
Yes need to watch out for magicman with the questionable name. He eats newbians for brekkie (sp?) but if you tread carefully you can usually get out of his crosshairs.
It's true, I managed to avoid Magicman's typical "ZOMG KILLNEWB!111".
I'm suprised you didn't warn them about SG though, yes..stay away from SomethingGood; he's nothing but bad luck my friend. (Well, there's probably a heart and a lung in there somewhere.)
