Quick Question!
It says on the first page that underage applicants are allowed. so I posted my form, no response. I then took it off and PM'd it to noleah. That was like 3 weeks ago. I'm sort of confused.

Sure! Your categories were Trading & Pets as well as General Knowledge, I believe? Just double-checking in case I forgot one.

What areas do you want explained?: I'd like to know about trading and what is fair, especially when it comes to C$ and the rares lists.

Do you speak another language, and if so which one?: Just english

How did you find Chicken Smoothie?: I bought this computer off of a kid at school and this was one of the bookmarks so I figured I would check it out...

What do you like best so far?: The pets and trading, though I do wish it was easier for newer people to get pets that have more value in trades.

Any questions?: How does the Rares list and C$ incorporate itself into trade values?


Welcome to Chickensmoothie meepyperson, delicatebones, 16HeatherTail, and Simply Irresistible! ^_^
meepyperson, your adopter will be Swiftalu.
delicatebones, your adopter will be Lovely Dreamer.
16HeatherTail, your adopter will be icemoonfern.
Simply Irresistible, your adopter will be MitunaCaptor.

To answer your question Irresistible, a certain amount of C$ is worth a certain amount of non-store pets, so you could trade pets for C$ or the other way around. C$ can also buy special pets from the store that are replaced every 2 months, and are more valuable than regular monthly pets. You could trade those special store pets for more normal pets, or even older, more valuable ones!
The Rares List incorporates itself into trades because a certain amount of a certain pet = a rares list pet. People love having pets on the Rares List, for the status, for the design, or just because they want to trade it down for more pets. As time goes on, Rares List pets and store pets get rarer and rarer, so as their value rises, so does the amount of pets you can get for them. Does that answer your question? C:

They will contact you as soon as they receive their notification about your adoption, and will hopefully be able to help you out with all your questions. 

If they don't contact  you in a timely manner [that is, a week] or there are other problems you have with them [you don't understand their explanations, they're being rude, anything like that], you can tell us, and if you want, we'll assign you a new adopter. Simply shoot any of the staff a PM or post here, we'll help you as fast as we can ;3

Username:
Rainbows Rule

Why should you be able to adopt a newbie?:
I think I should be able to adopt a newbie because I have good knowledge with things 5that may be hard to understand in the beginning like Role-playing and rarities with trading. I also believe that i should be allowed to adopt a newbie because i would love to help a new joiner of chicken smoothie to understand CS, as i know what it's like to join this website with out having any knowledge of anything like trading, role-plays, oekaki, and basically the whole website.

How often do you get on CS?:
I try to get onto CS everyday. I sometimes might miss one or two days in the week.

Which categories would you like to apply for?:
I would like to apply for role-playing, languages, and rarites. I know Swedish and French.

How long do you typically spend on CS each day you get on?:
When I am on CS I am usually on for several hours.

Do you agree to be helpful and polite to your newbie at all times?:
I agree to always be polite and helpful to my newbie, no matter how new they are.

Role-playing Example?:

From AvalancheClan role-play in Animal role-plays, fandom-based.


Physical Status ~ Healthy
Mental Status ~ Paranoid
Crush ~ Icemelt and Robinpaw.
Doing ~ Leaping trough the treetops.
With ~ No one.



~ iNSaNiTY ~
Like floating on air...
~ PSYchopathey ~
A carefree life...
~ iNSaNiTY ~
An illusion that can't end...
~ CApTiViTY ~
Unable to run away...

iNSaNiTY...
iNSaNiTY...
iNSaNiTY...


~ Dovepaw ~
~ She-cat ~ 7 moons ~ Apprentice ~

I padded across the rocky terrain her clan had called home. I gazed up at the blue sky that was scattered with fluffy white clouds. I smiled and looked at the forest that began to form around me. I looked up at the trees, deciding that I might as well practice my climbing. I leaped onto one of the trees and clawed myself up it. When I reached a strong branch, i ran across it and leaped to another tree branch. I smiled joyfully and continued leaping trough the branches of the trees. I stopped when I reached one of the highest trees in AvalancheClan territory. I smirked mischievously and began jumping and clawing my way high up the tree until I reached the very top. Once I reached the top, I looked out over the territory with a smile of pride. The sun shone brightly and the blue sky glowed above my head. The many clouds that had been scattered across the sky had now disappeared, only to leave a couple tiny, thin clouds. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a loud, deafening screech rang trough my ears, the sound of my brother and sister calling my names, their voices filled with fear and pain. I turned around quickly, my eyes wide with fear. I felt the branches slip beneath my paws and I fell from the tree with a yowl of mixed surprise and terror. I twisted myself to land on my paws, but I hit a large branch, ruining my position and causing me to land hard onto the rocky ground with a loud 'thud'. I screeched from the impact and then yowled from the pain the shot from my head to tail-tip. I tried to move, but the pain was unbearable and my head was pounding. I was suddenly hit with the strong scent of my own blood. My eyes wide with fear, I tried again to get up, but the pounding in my head got worse and I yowled again, much louder, and curled up from the pain. The sounds of my brother and sister's fearful yowls rang in my eras as everything went black, then, went silent as well.

I'm under aged apparently so here is my form c:

Username: T0XIC

Why should you be able to adopt a newbie?: Well because when I was a newbie I had to learn everything by myself so I don't think other newbies should have to go through that.

How often do you get on CS?: very often. practically everday

Which categories would you like to apply for?: General Knowledge, Forums, Oekaki, Trading and Pets, Rarities, and Roleplaying

How long do you typically spend on CS each day you get on?: usually about an hour or more

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

And for the Roleplaying requirements, Here is my roleplay example:

It was the first gathering she had ever gone to, Icepaw, as she had been newly named, kept a steady pace by her mentor's side. The strong scent of enemy clans stung her nose as she arrived through the thick tree line into the grassy plain. She looked at her mentor and asked quietly, "Are we really going to meet Shadowclan here? The elders told me that they're so cruel that they eat young apprentices!" Icepaw quivered amidst her words. Her mentor gave a deep chuckle and looked at her through kind eyes. "Why you know the elders take pride in tricking younglings like you. These days it seems to be the only thing they receive entertainment from!" He gave her a friendly nudge and suddenly her brother, Rockpaw, pushed between them and hissed into her face, "Well I bet shadowclan would certainly love a fat, juicy apprentice like you!" A teasing smirk spread across his muzzle. Icepaw huffed and pushed her brother aside. This may be my first gathering,s she thought, But im not going to let Anything ruin this night for me!

The End c:

thanks for your time, and I hope you consider ^w^
