I had little doubt that "Joseph_Miles" was a newbie based on his posts. Here are a few Opening posts from the "newbie" forum:

Okay, I know I'm getting way ahead of myself here, but I wanted to hear from actual players about this before I invested too much time.

I imagine most pvp is between established enemies like members of factions who are at war. In that case, I'd imagine all bets are off? I'm asking about more isolated conflicts between individuals.
Also, is it considered poor form to gank someone who doesn't know who you are, even if you have ample reason to hate them?

Thanks in advance for your responses.
Alright - I'll accept that. Perhaps you played in another RPK type mud and wanted to know what it was like in SK.

When it comes to leveling, is enchanting or (insert non-damage spell here)a viable alternative to dealing damage?
Again - semi-acceptable as a newbie to know about gaining XP but seems to suggest knowledge of mechanics - Non-combat XP cap to be exact.

Just a quick question about enchants. At a certain point, do more enchantments stop helping? For example, maybe 40 willpower is the same as 80 willpower, which would be good to know.
Thanks in advance.
And this one is where I lost any doubt about you being a real newbie. You are asking specific questions about specific stats where there is no in-game way of knowing this information short of depending on OOC knowledge which is often sketchy at best for a new player. Sorry, you burst the newbie bubble with this one.
On that note, I only saw your character once and wanted to kill him, when he was leveling in the blasted chancel... But that was because I thought you were a lightie.
