Another Newbie

[AnnieGYG]

I'd heard about this site on a ton of other collection sites over the years, so finally decided to drop in and see what it was all about.

Enjoying it a lot so far, the group event to defeat the construction diggers is hilarious.

I'll have to have a dig through and read the newbie guides, but for now just exploring, hitting buttons and enjoying the results!

(Please note I am not trading anything right now as I don't know enough about values and I can't find a way to block off my current event items from being available for trade)

Hello, welcome to chickensmoothie!
I'm Laelia, it's nice to meet you <3

You can make it so that people can't trade for your items.
First, go to "Trades" on the top bar.
Then, click on trade settings (it will appear like this):

Three boxes will appear. Check the second one that reads "Don't allow players to make trade offers for my items".
Then be sure to scroll down and hit "Save Settings".


Basic Information:

Site Rules » A must-read topic
Must-Read Topic for Newbies » A basic guide to CS!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) » If you have a question, it might be answered here
Newbie Guide & Index » Get a better understanding of the trading system
Hidden Features and Tips & Tricks » Similar to the FAQ


I would also suggest checking out the Adopt A Newbie thread. Here, you can get an older/more experienced user to help show you around the site and answer any of your questions!




Trading/Pet Information:

Now that that's all out of the way, let's move onto the trading/pet collecting part of CS! If you're looking for more pets, I would highly suggest checking out the Pound. It opens around every 4-6 hours, and if you're lucky enough, you can get a lot of old/rare pets! Always remember that you can Adopt new pets at the beginning of each month. You should definitely check out the archives and add pets/items that you want on your wishlist. There are a lot of people giving out free pets in the CS free adoptions forum, so that's always a good way to stock up your collection. A specific thread I would like to point out is the GHAA (General Helper Adoption Agency, where new members can get free pets! There are also a few free items at the CS Store! Another way to earn pets is by coding/doing art in the Art shops forum.

Thanks so much Laelia! Extremely useful information there.

I had a lot of trades asking for current event items from the construction site within my first couple of hours and wasn't sure how to stop them.
