The guide threads are there to help - so read them.

Experience comes from everything - so if you're struggling to level after reading the guides
know that as long as you're playing, you're progressing.

Understand that Torn itself is a long-term game, so make some goals- then make some friends cus you'll be here a while :]

Baldr’s guide is a newb’s bible..

Avoid global and avoid getting into arguments with randoms whether it’s through DMs or forums, there’s a lot of bullies with inferiority complex that feel the need to take out their real life problems on new torn players. More often than not though, majority of the people here are super nice as long as one isn’t being obnoxious.

Try to join a faction with experienced players that can guide you, help you and protect you during your early days, just make sure you pick the right one as there seems to be some that take advantage of new players one way or another.

Spend £1000 on Donator packs immediately, and dump them in stocks on week one.

Odds are you'll do it eventually, may as well get maximal ROI

erm.. something close to this if i'm feeling very very helpful..
after the generic read Baldr's Basic Advice line..
i bother looking at their personal stats to check if they've been dumpster diving or what else..

Mentions: Holding Levels

god! this is gold..
you just gave the best reason why newbies should prioritize Intro to Bio and IV Theraphy as education courses..

The-Truth? A piggy bank is a non-tradable item that you can only purchase (with mission credits) on your first few days in Torn.. once you smash it, you can never unsmash it.. and there's no getting another one..

true, but they won’t understand P/L and ROI and such either

DP is the best way to start, plushie running (I’ve said this so many times before) will not fund your billions needed into being competitive
Apathy [2728692]
i don't have one either.. i picked the med kits over the piggy bank..
i just learned later about it when i was active in NPC..
the level holders there used to sprout wisdom whenever they are online

Take a little time to read the guides. Don't just drift along for half a dozen years without really knowing what you're doing - It's a nightmare trying to catch up .

only buy stocks in benefit blocks... the ups and downs suck when you don't have much money. enjoy the game and try not to make enemies right off the bat... and never scam. and read the tutorials they will be your best friend. PS: don't gamble the house will eventually win and take it all lol
