Firstly, I'm not sure what a newbie is doing on this page, since this site is designed for intermediate/advanced players. Having said that, I hope this is useful, or at least, I hope it stops you from bugging me on newbie chan. :P

Q: Where can I get food and water?
1) Eat the arms and legs of mobs you kill. (Take arm;eat arm)
2) Buy food from the baker (read page2 of your guide)
3) Drink or fill a waterskin at temple square ("Drink fountain", "Fill waterskin")
4) Orange juice from Bard clan hall fills both thirst and hunger! It's the best!
5) You can't starve to death though, you just heal slower.
 
Q: Where/What/How do I get/use the garbage can?
1) The garbage can (and grad weapon) are from Lowlands 
2) Directions to Lowlands are in your guide.
3) Get the first key from the lost visitor at the end of mudschool.
4) The lost visitor is down from the center of the Cages, east past
   a locked door. (The dragon, behind the North/South door, has the key)
5) Get to level 4 or 5 before going to lowlands, but NOT past level 5.
6) Once in lowlands, beware of the drunk punker - he's got a nice
   level 5 weapon though. 3 other mobs have colored bands - "look "
   to see if they're carrying it. If you can't find them, wait for a repop.
   (some might have died).
7) Unlock the doors to get to Garbage. Beware of his bodyguard!
8) The garbage can is a portal to recall. It works in some places where
   "recall" won't work, and it doesn't cost moves like "recall" does.
9) To use it, "Wear can", "Enter".
 
Q: Where/what is Bard Clan hall?
1) S of the grubby inn.
2) It has a bed where you heal faster, a fountain of orange juice
   shops selling eq, and portals which teleport you to some areas.
  
Q: How do I unlock a door?
1) Have the key in your inventory
2) UNLOCK <direction>  [NOT "unlock door"]
3) OPEN <direction>
 
Q: How do I know what I have/etc.
1) SCORE, ATTRIBUTE, EQUIPMENT, INVENTORY
 
Q: Help! I've died, what do I do?
1) You'll be in the Hospital.
2) Wait until you're healed up (see the hp bit of the prompt)
3) Stand, East to get back to recall.
4) Find your corpse, "take all corpse", "wear all".
5) If an aggressive monster is killing you, ask for help on newbie
6) Your corpse will last 6 hours online time, even if you quit.
   After that, the eq will be on the floor in the room you died.
7) Type OUTFIT for a new set of basic eq. (below lvl 6)
8) If you've lost a lot of experience, or were close to levelling,
   you might want to ask for a "miracle" from a cleric, or a druid.
 
Q: How do I get to XXXX?
1) HELP MAP
2) Get hold of a Speedwalk page (Top left box of my main menu)
 
Q: Help, I'm blinded/poisoned/etc.
1) You can heal it N of recall (type heal for a list)
2) To save money, just wait a bit, it'll wear off soon.
3) Plague can be fatal though. Recall fast, and ask for help.
 
Q: What does XXX do?
1) "Identify" it south of the armorer
2) There are nifty tricks with "appraise" and "bid" too :)
 
Q: Where do I train/How do I get new spells?
1) Do all these at your guild. (Read guide, then go 1 room more in)
2) Train your stats, in the following order: Wis, Con, Int, Str, Dex.
3) Practice weapon skills, an attack skill/spell.(kick,etc), and dodges.
   Try to have a high Int when practicing. (Train Int, Wear eq, spellup, etc.)
   Don't practice: Recall, Exotic.
4) "Gain convert" and "Gain reconvert" changes trains to pracs and back.
5) Type "gain list" at the guild trainer to see what new stuff you can get.
6) Spells MUST be gained in entire groups. Skills can be gained individually,
   but uses more trains than gaining the entire group.
7) If your experience TNL is more than 1500, think about recreating.
 
Q: Where do I level?
1) Below level 5: Mudschool (RECALL, UP)
2) Before reaching lvl 6: Get a garbage can from lowlands
3) After level 6:  use 'READ GUIDE'
4) At anytime, 'MOBDEATHS' (help mobdeaths)
