Why should you be able to adopt a newbie?: i started chickensmoothie in very early '09, i know lots of tips on this site and know a fair amount on rarities. but other than the long time i've been on cs, i'm very nice, friendly and very generous, i'm already a gift bomber so giving some older/rarer pets at the start of the game would help out newbies a lot (i know that for a fact)
Why do you want to?: i see that there are people who look down upon newbies (see it a lot in the trade rant thread) and i want to prove that not everyone's like that on cs and help out people from getting scammed, plus, i wish i had an older user to help me when i was new and i love helping people^^
Are you going to help them whenever they need it?: of course! i'm on everyday for a few hours (or more) and i help all my friends when they ask, i even help out my customers (sometimes this leads to chatting), this would be no different ^^ and if i don't know the answer, i'm sure i could finds someone who does

Why should you be able to adopt a newbie?: Well, I've been on CS since July of 2009, and I understand both the evolution of the site and how many different aspects of the site works. I know the forums, oekaki, pet rarities, and how different people value different things. Plus, I love helping people.
Why do you want to?: I made some mistakes as a newbie, and really would like to help other new members. Plus, navigating the site can be confusing, or they may not understand everything. I want to help newbies get their feet wet.
Are you going to help them whenever they need it?: Yes. As long as I'm not sick, I should be on at least once a day to answer questions, if not more.

You can take me off the list of members waiting. I'm leaving CS, and unless you want the newbie to learn about quitting...

All right guys, I know I meant to post the updated list by now but I've been a bit busy! Since there are no newbies to assign at the moment, I'm going to wait just a little longer; studying for a final exam by making note cards so my hand hurts from all the writing, lol.

I will still get back to anyone waiting on me and Myth Lady I've made note of that, thanks for the heads up!!

Why should you be able to adopt a newbie?: I've been on CS for almost a year and I've learnt pretty much all of the rules and I love helping people.
Why do you want to?: When I was a newbie, many people had helped me out with starting out by sending me a few free pets and taught me how to use Oekaki. I'd like to help others just like they helped me.
Are you going to help them whenever they need it?: Of course c:

REMEMBER:
- READ THE RULES
- You may request a particular newbie/adopter and I will try to take that into consideration, but I will assign newbies to adopters. I only send out PMs to adopters, who are then expected to PM their newbie with a welcome and introduction.
- The key areas of the site are Trading, Roleplaying, and Oekaki, so if you need to, read up to better help your newbie!
- And, as always, you must have been a member here for at least SIX months! I may even alter this to filter out some people because our list is simply so long!
- All newbies AND adopters are always welcome to PM me about anything.

Myth Lady, I've taken you off the list, and Izzy, you were assigned a newbie a while back! Please tell me they haven't gone all this time without hearing from an adopter! Lol
