Petros: The buzzing of the newbie pin is great and seems to work fine. Thanks for adding it so quickly.

Not Faerun orcs Sharn! We're speaking of Faerie orcs.

I am glad you like the idea Gorboth! I just wish I had sent it to you ingame like I planed to some half a year ago (or more) when I first thought about it. Now that post is gone from the old forum...
