Have you helped anyone before anywhere on CS? If so, please link to the post/s:
I help fairly frequently in the FTT, such as here and here, and I occasionally help out on the thread for younger member advice on the 18+ board, such as here.
Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?:
I've been on CS since early 2010 and know the rules and how to navigate the site very well. More than anything, I just really love helping others. I remember when I first joined, and how much other users' kindness set a wonderful tone for the time I spent here. I was lucky enough to have a couple of users take me under their wing and show me the ropes, and I would love to offer that to a new user now.
How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?:
I'm typically online 6-7 days a week, and average about 6 hours a day.
How many newbies are you willing to adopt:
I would like to start off with 2.
Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?:
Yes, I've read it and fully understand the responsibility.
Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?:
Absolutely.

Thread Update

The following adopters have been accepted and will be added onto the list:

The following adopter forms have been declined for the following reasons:
  • Form was inadequate, either did not provide enough information for us to make a decision or it simply did not give us confidence that you could adequately help a newbie. If you are not sure how you can fix this, you may PM a thread-mod about it.

The following newbies have been assigned the following adopters:

Newbies, your adopter will be messaged shortly to notify them that they have been assigned to you, and will hopefully be able to answer all your questions. If they don't contact you within around a week, or if you're having other problems such as they're being rude to you, you don't understand their explanations, or anything like that, you can PM one of our thread mods, and we will assign you to a new adopter as soon as we can.

Our mods are;
>> Celozon & AquilaFuga

In the meantime, I would suggest that you take a little look at the Newbie Guide & Index, if you haven't already. It has some great tips, and could help you while you wait for your adopter.

Have you helped anyone before anywhere on CS? If so, please link to the post/s:
    A few on the CS Help, Suggestions, and Problems board ( x x x x ), several via PM. Was also an Adopter here before.
Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?
    I have been a member on CS for 5 6 years and love helping people to learn their way around. I wish this had been around when I joined; I know it would have helped me a lot! I'd be happy for the opportunity to provide what knowledge I have now for others. I have helped a few Newbies through this thread already and would love to do it again.
How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?
    I get online 6-7 days a week; for each day I'm online, I spend 1-2 hours on a computer and 5 minutes every hour or so on mobile. I also receive PM notifications.
How many newbies are you willing to adopt?
    3
Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?
    Yes I did!
Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?
    Of course!


    My previous newbie before this current round of assignments never opened my message to them, so could I be added to the top of the list? <3

What do you like best so far?: I love how cute the animals are!
Any questions?: There seem to be a lot of terms about the different animal colours and I can't find any resource that lists them all! As well, how can I accumulate pets quicker? And when will I have access to the forum?

Thanks!! :)

      post it on the "is this a fair trade?" thread!
      if you are confused on how to get access to the correct link in order to share your trade,
      read the bottom of the first post! remember to read and follow the rules of the thread c:

      i'm not sure if i got your first question correct, do you mind rephrasing it for me?
      if i understand, are you asking for a list of all of the pets on the site? if so you can
      just view the archives! again, sorry if that wasn't what you were asking, it was just
      a tad bit unclear to me. as for accumlating pets quicker, i would suggest adopting
      each month's pets. you might also want to check out the CS free adoption forums
      as well as the CS trading forums. another way is to express your creativity by making
      an art shop or a coding shop. i would also recommend checking the pound page.

Thanks Storm for the response. :) I meant that when I was posting in the pound forum, people were excitedly saying things like "hoard pet" "UC" "WL" "Shima long tail". Is there any resource that explains what these are? I'm just referring to my current pets as their date and rarity, but is there a different way of classifying them? Thank you so much!!

Edit: Forgot to ask --- How do I get my stamp collection in my signature? :D

What do you like best so far?: adoptable pets on oekaki + writing discussion or whatever it's called
Any questions?: are there threads for coding help and training? i'd love to see one and i haven't had a good enough look so far to find one. I'm already decent with some simple BBCode and i'd love to learn more
