I'm a newbie at this game but I love it. I see lots of people have a status and I want to have a status too!! but like i'm a newbie and everything so do I have to play longer or something?
Nope, you can change it right now. :) D'you see where it says 'x Friends Online' in the top right corner of the site? Hover your mouse over that and it'll expand. Then simply click on the box, type something and click 'okay'.
If you don't see a box, you will have to click on the black line just below 'Buddylist' and 'Comments'. It sounds odd, but it will cause the box you type in to appear. :)
