CodeCat:
Getting to know people before the con helps too. Drop in on #eurofurs on Anthrochat IRC, there's plenty of congoers there. :)
Wawik:
It'd be generally advisable not O.o to overuse smileys ^.^, refraining from snarky O.O comments and generally not being a prick ^^. Also, some form of socialisation might help. (Contrary to what some people think, the furry fandom is _not_ an acceptable substitute for a lack of social skills, nor a training ground.)
With all that in order, people might even take you seriously and not just think "Oh god, another one of those".
DaRaccoon:
I'll check that room :D
What's wrong with smilies? o.o I use them all the time and noone complains.
Nekotorisha:
drink a few cold ones and loosen up a bit at the con

Speaking of alcohol, what kind do they have over there? Never been to Germany.
