Help Me Out?

Um, hi glitch!
Might be weird but, I'm new to this game!
I joined a long time ago, when a friend convinced me to make an account. I played around a bit, and it was really fun! :D
But then I sort of quit and was very inactive for a long time, until I started playing again recently. ^_^||
And now apparently glitch is in closed beta and I feel like the only noob left.  o w o||||||||
Well so far my rl friend (same one that introduced me) has been helping me around Glitch, but I can't just depend on her.......

So,
• I want to make more friends :D
• Glitch is even more confusing than when I first joined, any advice would be appreciated ♥

Thank you for your time! And please excuse my noob-ness. |||OTL

  • Hi!

    Do you have specific questions about confusing things?

    An in-general advice that I have is if you're wanting to know more about topicX, then google 

    glitch wiki topicX

    and that'll normally help you find a lot of good info.

  • There is also the FAQ provided by TS.  

    Look on this page for the categories  
    http://www.glitch.com/help/

    You might find the "imagination" and "gameplay" information most helpful.

  • Thank you everybody who added me! :D

  • Yes, glitch is a regular word, too, and Glitch isn't famous enough to overcome all those other results! There is a fan site and wiki you might find helpful: www.glitch-strategy.com. And you can also join the Live Help channel when you are playing. You can ask any questions about the game you want, and someone will answer. But don't just chatter about non-game things, and try not to ask for someone to come help you to do something (like "can someone help me restore my peat bog?"). Those kinds of things belong in Global chat!

    Oh yes, to join a chat channel, all the ones you are eligible to listen and talk in are on the left side of your screen. If you aren't in one (which will be obvious by the silence on that side of your screen!), just click on the name of one you want to join, and then you're in! If you want to close one for some reason, there's a little x in the corner, and you can switch between them all the time without closing them, too. As far as I know, there's no hard limit on how many channels you can have open at once. They just turn into little tabs for tidiness. Have fun!

  • Hi Chiri,  let me know if there's anything I can do.

  • Hi Chiri, a similar thing happened with me, seemed everyone was light years ahead etc, but I soon got the hang of things again.

    If there's anything you need just ask everyone is helpful, I'll be in game later on if you want to chat or pop by :)

  • Just added you as a friend. :) We were all noobs once. Heck. I still have questions that noobs probably can answer. :)

  • I would like to jump on the welcome back wagon! I had a similar experience. I stopped playing for several months and came back to find out my house was gone and I have a Home Street (very cool, but also confusing at first). Let me know if you have any questions.

  • Did you start your account in Alpha? If you did, can you check your inventory for bacon??
    Posted 5 months ago by OMG BACON!! Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Thank you so much everybody! ♥

    And what's alpha?? 
    Posted 5 months ago by Chiri Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Welcome back, Chiri and Mahkia! Feel free to ask questions :)

    For the question about alpha: that was the Glitch testing stage that started in February 2010 and ended on April 21, 2011 (at which point the first beta started). Glitch "launched" in late September 2011, and was live for about 2 months before it "unlaunched" and went back to beta.
