None :(

Have you helped anyone before anywhere on CS? If so, please link to the post/s:
I can't find links or can't exactly provide links to them. I have helped out newbies through trades or via PMs, usually by helping them understand basic fair trades which sometimes leads to them continuing to message me through PMs for a future helping hand! Here recently I have been offering help on threads such as "How Much is This Pet Worth?" and "Is This a Fair Trade?". I am also a moderator for a few UMAs as well!

Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?:
I love helping people and I feel like I would be a great help to a newbie. I remember when I joined I was super confused about how the site worked and about all the different sections in the forums. I wish I would have known something like this existed! I want to be able to provide some relief to the sometimes confusing and frustrating times you can experience as a newbie!

How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?:
I am usually on every morning and every night. Occasionally, I am online during the afternoon times as well if my days are free. Normally, I am online for a few hours at a time. I'd estimate at least 4-7 hours a day.

Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?:
Absolutely!

Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?:
Of course!!


Looking forward to my next newbie! <3

Thread Update

The following adopters have been accepted and assigned below:

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.

Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?: I like helping others out. I try to be conscientious of what I say to others online so I don't offend them. As someone with anxiety, I often tend to take things the wrong way. So, I try to be as kind as I can to the receiving end so they understand I'm not trying to be rude in any way. I hope to make everyone feel welcome and wanted so they feel included! Although I may not know everything, I try and be as helpful as I can and direct them towards helpful resources if my knowledge ends up not being sufficient.
How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?: I normally get on everyday now, but my schedule can be a bit wacky so it may fluctuate a couple days. But normally it would be every day, to every other day!
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!

Never got a reply from my newbie, it's been a week now. Looking forward to future opportunities :]

Have you helped anyone before anywhere on CS? If so, please link to the post/s: I've been around for a while, so there are many, many posts where I've (hopefully) intervened helpfully, but I think the most relevant are probably in the old adopt a newbie page (even if the posts are from 2013): ; and the most recent would be the following:

Why should you be allowed to adopt a newbie?: I think I would be a very helpful guide for anyone who could find CS a little overwhelming at first. I have a lot of experience in pretty much every section of the forum, excepting the RP section. I can point out helpful threads and give trading advice. I can give pointers on the text editor, BB coding, and Oekaki. And I like to think I'm good at explaining things, as well as friendly. I'll always be grateful to the users who nurtured my experience way back when I joined the site, and I'd love to introduce someone new to all the things I love about CS and its community <3

How often do you get on CS, and how long are you typically online on these days?: I have periods of very frequent activity, and periods of lull. Right now, I've been visiting CS pretty much every day, and hanging in the forums for at least a coupe of hours amidst other activities. If I begin to slow down in activity, I will notify thread staff, like the rules ask c:

Did you read and understand all of the Adopter information?: Yes, I believe I did

Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?: Absolutely!
