Why should you be able to adopt a newbie?:
I am on often, enjoy helping others and have done programs like this before. I am rather knowledgeable about the site and rarities.

How often do you get on CS?:

Basically every normal day. Sometimes life comes up, but I will alert you/my newbie for those few times when that happens.

Which categories would you like to apply for?:
General Knowledge
Forums
Roleplaying
Oekaki
Trading and Pets
Rarities
Rares List
(I have not been given/passed this test yet. I will updated this when I have.)

So yeah, I'm pretty good with any of these. Just whatever you need done.

How long do you typically spend on CS each day you get on?:

4-10 hours. I have no life.

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

I do!

To answer your question, bumping or bump means Bring My Post Up. You do it when you want to bring your post up to the front page. For example, a trade thread. When it falls off the front the front page you could bump it back up so people could see it.

If you need more of an explanation or help with anything else feel free to PM me.

What areas do you want explained?: Trading of pets, rarities, and rares list.
Do you speak another language, and if so which one?: English is the only language I speak.
How did you find Chicken Smoothie?: A good few years ago a friend told me about it, I do adore 'pet trading games'. She no longer plays and I have just begun.
What do you like best so far?: Trades, the pound, and the large quantity of pets you can adopt and start with.
Any questions?: Must you be apart of forms to make this site enjoyable? Or can one simply stick with only adopting pets? Also, personal 'adoptions' posted by other people. When it says you can adopt a pet rather then trade. How does this work?

You do not need to be part of the forums but the forums are awesome ways to make new friends and help with trading for creatures you want.

For your second question, basically you send a trade to that member and add the pet from the group that they have stated and you leave a message and then send the trade and they will accept it. Make sure to follow all of their rules :)

Hopefully this will help.

Hello everyone! Sorry about my little hiatus from AAN lately, I was quite busy in June and didn't have any time for CS. However I'm back now, and as far as updates go I believe noleah & Panne are still working on the mass update, so all I can do right now is answer any questions you may have. We'll assign your adopters and update the list as soon as possible. Feel free to contact me about any individual or personal concerns you have, or post your questions right on the thread.

Also thank you very much to lucky333123 who was able to regularly answer questions and concerns while we were out. As well as everyone else who helped answer questions when they could, we and the new members appreciate it!

Chickensmoothie forums run on BB code, which a fairly easy coding language to use. From the basics of bold italic and underline, also comes colors, etc. You also have the option to position your text to the center, left, or right. With those options and a little bit of freedom people end up getting quite crafty with signatures. Many people use images from tumblr.com, deviantart.com, or other sites to decorate their signature. They also use text encoding sites like fontmeme.com, and some even use characters provided by their computer's keyboard. ( ex; ♥ ) With all those options members code their own signatures, and sometimes even posts. You can find members to create a signature for you while you get comfortable with BBcoding, there's quite a few signature shops in the Art Shops Forum. Some require payment, some are free. You can even put in your signature that you're looking for someone to make you a signature, and they'll PM you if they're interested.

Edit; Here's a guide to BB code ;) faq.php?mode=bbcode
