Editing Initial Scout Guide (section)

== RULE 1: DO NOT SCOUT ALONE ==
If you log in one day, and there's not much going on, but you've got 'the itch', and you say to yourself, 'Self, there's not much going on, I'm going to solo scout,' remember this rule.  Do a Race, or a Death Race, or anything '''except''' go on a scout alone.

Since everyone at some point will break this rule at least once anyway, refer to rule 1a: If you ''must'' try it out then use disposable characters. ''Expect'' to lose and don't feel discouraged if you do. There are a multitude of things stacking the odds against you, and in due time you will learn them all and how to overcome them.
