While the Secret World is an inherently dangerous place to live, there are very few safety signs around. And the few we have do not even follow the standard shapes, colours, or wording any civilised being has learned to recognise since their childhood.

The first striking example I can remember of such deceptive warnings is the following one. You will certainly find the design and choice of words similar to other childish "keep your hands off my toy box" pranks. Hardly something you could take seriously, isn't it?

And then, there is another kind, with a friendlier and more generous intent: for example, this commendable attempt to ensure that the obligatory vacation trip to the Secret World many tourists save their year-long earnings for, leaves lasting, and fond, memories. You will without doubt recognise the following message for what it truly is: a friendly reminder to pack a tube of sunscreen before boarding the plane to South Africa. I am forced to admit, though, that it is very poorly placed at the bottom of a parking lot... I guess some intern at an advertisement firm is getting scolded as we speak.

If it's taking damage, heal it. If it's not, heal it all the same -- it might soon take damage.

What a traumatic experience this seems to be!

I was thinking about making a tutorial how to safely use the ladder but I think that have to practice a bit first.
