Have you helped anyone before anywhere on CS? If so, please link to the post/s: I often gift new people pets to help them out.
Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?: I would like to adopt a newbie, as I feel I have finally been here long enough to be able to answer the majority of questions. I used to be a newbie in the program around 3 years ago, so I think it would be sort of cool to give back to this community. I love helping others out, online and in real life. In real life, I volunteer at an educational association, and tutor kids in grades 3 to 8 every Saturday. Plus, I now have more time to do it! I used to be much more busy, but I've been active for a bit now and I feel I could definitely take on a newbie. I am polite, respectful, and I just feel really happy helping others. .W.
How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?: Weekdays, around 3-4 hours everyday. I have school, but even during school I'm able to get on CS and answer a question if needed. Weekends: maybe 6 hours?
Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?: Yes, I have.
Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?: I will always be polite and helpful to my newbie, yes!

Thread Update

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

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;
>> AquilaFuga - axelandria - Burrito Bunny

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: Not beyond answering any questions in certain threads

Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?:
I have been a member on CS since 2009 and since joining I haven't been away for more than a few months. I've seen this site change and grow and have made a decent few mistakes of my own! I wish I had someone older when I first joined to show me the ropes and how to get to know this website. Outside of CS, I try my best to help my family and friends with any problems they may have, and I've been looking to expand this to CS, to help strangers with anything they may need. I consider myself Queer and I have experiance working with people who identify as such or may be thinking they may identify in a similar way. I love to help people out in any way I can and I would love to help out any newbies that have any questions what so ever, CS or non-CS related.

How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?:
More often these days, but I've been on daily for the past few months.

Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?: Yes!
Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?: Of course!

    I helped my newbie!
