Post subject:  Skills and stats newb questions

First stats:
When i began this game generated diff chars with diff skills, like the standard magician than fighter than the custom traders. Discovered soon that chars come with 3 sets of stats. 1:the standard ones with 80 (str+dex+int), 2:the custom ones with 65, 3:some with 30.
Now this last bothers me since deleting a new character takes some days.
So my q is: How to avoid getting a char with stats of 10 each? I dont know how created them they came randomly, at creation the stats looked normal...

Skills: For a long time did not understand what is a forgetful fish. My idea was if you reach skill cap 680 than go to skills page and turn some arrows that are next to unwanted skills down so the necessary skills grow and unwanted ones decrease. Reading everything realized it is not the case.
So i ate some forgetful fish and one third did not do nothing. About 3 out of 10. Is that normal?
Also would like to know what is with the diff between total skills and real skills. 680 will be counted from real skills? because forgetful fishes take away the real skills only,and leave 1-4 per cent of total skill. If the program counts the total skill than how to get rid of these percentages (or points as some call them)?
Thanks for the answers.
Oh i would have asked these ingame but the help there is so full of warnings, i dare not abuse it.

Read the Skipped Tutorial thread about that. And You need to wait a week
before deleting a newly created char.

How it didn't work? When talking about skills always assume the "real"
level. Those are counted towards total cap too. Expect total cap to be
~675 for humans (as it does differ some per char and there're some
other things to bear in mind when counting Your real personal total cap).
FFF takes away 10% of a particular skill. If it's less than 10% it'll take the
skill to 0%. FFFs for snooping and stealing won't do anything obvious, but
after a while those skills will get zeroed.

Haha thats good.
The reason i skipped tutorial with my first char because did not know how to get the feathers from chickens. Second time i reached the zombie but with a trader i did no harm to it. From that on (with the next characters) did not bother- skipped.

Forgetful fish: i had ffish of stealing...

Thank you.

There's also a thread on this in the 'Shard Manual' section of the forums - it's not extensive, but the information within would have helped your skills problems...
