 This is an unstable build.
-FPS: {(1 / gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.TotalSeconds)}
+FPS: {(fps)}
+An FPS below 20 can cause glitches in keyboard and mouse handling. It is advised that if you are getting these
+framerates, press CTRL+E to disable fancy effects, close any apps you are not using, and try running in windowed mode
+or in a lower resolution.
+
+If all else fails, you can set a breakpoint somewhere in the ShiftOS.Update() or ShiftOS.Draw() methods in the game's source
+code and use Visual Studio's debugger to step through the code to find bottlenecks.
+
+If a method takes more than 30 milliseconds to complete, that is a sign that it is bottlenecking the game and may need to be
+optimized.
+
+Try using the SkinTextures cache when rendering skin elements, and try using the GraphicsContext.DrawString() method when drawing
+text. In this build, we are aware that this method causes bottlenecking, we are working on a caching system for fonts so we do not need to
+use the System.Drawing.Graphics class to draw text.
