[SOLVED] Language Customization Question

[SOLVED] Language Customization Question was created by tjohns92109
Should be an easy question to answer. While following directions for customizing the language strings, it says to download the plugin, unzip, change the string values, zip it up, and install it. The first thing I see when I open language.php in the plugin is this:

/**
* WARNING:
* Do not make changes to this file as it will be over-written when you upgrade CB.
* To localize you need to create your own CB language plugin and make changes there.
*/

Why does it say that if this is the way to edit the language strings? Just to scare me haha?

The instructions on this page: forge.joomlapolis.com/projects/lan-cb/wiki

...say: Get the latest CB English Language template plugin from here (points to forge.joomlapolis.com/projects/lan-cb-en/files ). And I picked the latest one under 'CB 2.0+ Language Plugins'.
