Collection of Error Messages

In one post, Lee or Dewi noted, that they created their own error messages instead of the standardized crpytic things you normally see.

I quite like this idea and though we could support them with writing down error messages they could use. If you have any ideas, just go ahead and hopefully they once pop up if you create some kind of error Razz

Hold your breath for 30seconds and turn around yourself 7 times. If it doesn't work stand on your head and repeat process
