A Little Help Please?

[ShadowinLove5]

I was doing fine, until I got to the appearence place in the newcomer map thing.  It told me to right-click my avatar and then click 'My Appearence'.  I right clicked it, and nothing came up.

Thank you

I'm not sure, but this might be a "Basic Mode" issue. "Basic Mode" locks you out of a lot of basic features, which seems counterproductive to me. Confusing, too, for new users when they go through the orientation and Help Island areas and see all these instructions that Basic Mode locks you entirely out of.

 

I agree with the idea behind Basic Mode, just the execution seems poorly thought out.

 

Of course, again, I'm not sure this is the issue at all, but try changing to "Advanced" mode at the login screen the next time and see if the right click options appear when you've logged in.

Yes, I agree, this Advance mode thing that needs to be on is really confusing to new residents.  Not the best laid out UI though I too agree with the two modes however, modifying your shape should not be an Advance Feature as should Search (which is also under advanced mode).
