Well, this could help tons

Just curious if anyone would be up to sitting down and kind of taking me through some things I don't understand in SL. I'll be the first to admit it, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. Sooo, if someone could spend a couple minutes telling me what's up, it would be much appreciated. Well, thanks much, till next time.

Yes, this is a cry for help

That box on your head? Open inventory, right-click and unwear, drag from inventory to the ground, then right-click the box, hit edit, go to contents, and take your items out of the box and put them in your inventory

Don't worry, we all do it. Still.

Everything else, I suggest:
- Live Help (Pull down menu -> Help -> Live Help)
- Mentors (Look for people with "mentor" as their title - usually around the welcome area)

Ask someone for a "noobie pack" - there's a bunch of freebies that people give away, and a lot of places to go visit to have fun or learn or explore.

IM me in world, I'll load you up w/goodies, clothes, toys, anims, landmarks to some great places to get your feet wet in SL etc.

We all were new at one time, no matter how long we've been here!

Keep asking questions, only way to find out!
