Not a new member, just a inexperienced one

Postby Tabarinth » Sat Jul 14, 2012 8:31 pm

Hiya guys! I've had this account for a while, but I haven't been on often. Perhaps with your help and my sis Chinchillaqueen, I'll be a good user on here. So if anybody would be so kind as to help me with trade advice, that'd be nice. I also have some '08 stuff, if you're interested.

Ooh yay, someone else like me! I've only really been active here since May, so I don't have a lot of advice, but this thread is really useful for trades: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=1268999 as you can ask other people's opinions on if a trade is fair or not and this one: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=1139715 is good for finding out what a pet is worth and then there's this one: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=112366 where you can check the list to see if your pet is rare or not and what it's worth if it is.

That's about all I know, but you pick things up as you're on more I think. I read other people's trade threads to to see what they're offering for what, etc. that helps. ^^

Hello! I'm glad you're willing to try and figure the site out instead of giving up. Here are some links and such to look into, even though you aren't a newbie they'll probably help. ;)

Here are some links to wonderful and helpful pages you should definitely check out: ;)
  • Must-Read Topics For Newbies; all of the topics listed here are must-reads. I would strongly recomend checking out as many as you can. :)
  • Here you can get "Adopted" and have your very own mentor to personally help you with the site.
  • Finally, this is a list of all the General Helpers who can answer any questions you may have. Usually at least one is on at any given time. You can also feel free to ask me a question if you please.

My top tips for starting out are:
  • Don't be ashamed if you don't know something because you're a newbie. Just politely ask someone, we were all newbies once upon a time.
  • Always be polite. Some older members are rude to newbies anyways, but always be polite.
  • Check out the Oekaki.
  • Have fun! :D

Hi there, I'm Rosalind!
I used to be a General Helper
so if you are looking for any help send in a help ticket. CS's amazing team will help you!
I'm not very active anymore, although I occasionally pop on so replies to PMs and trades could be slow.

Administrators are Tess and Nick, they own the site. Admin Assistants are like Sorren Fey, basically they help with anything the admins need. CS Staff help with the site. Global moderators, edit and search the forums to help keep them in order. General Helpers, help anyone that may need it. Oekaki Moderators search the Oekaki forums and drawings to make sure no one is tracing and that all art is original, along with moderating. Roleplay Moderators, search the roleplaying forums for anything unusual or inappropriate etc.

Tips from Wolfie

1. We were all newbies once upon a time, and we all made those trades that we regret now. Don't make that same mistake as I and many others did. Check out This thread it's give great advice!
2. Never create 2 accounts!! I can't stress this one enough, you don't want to be banned do you?
3. Never be afraid to PM (private message) me.
4. The General Helpers are there for a reason, use them :lol:
5. Don't worry if you think CS (Chicken Smoothie) is difficult and confusing now. You're new, and after a few short days of browsing the site, everything will come together.
