✎ My name is Rhys, Im 36, working in the family business and living in New Zealand. I used to run a charity under the S/N the last templar, but got unfairly banned when I was falsely accused of selling stuff on ebay. Still, running a charity was one of the most rewarding things I did on gaia, and now, with some free time on hand while I work on some issues relating to depression, I feel like I would like to contribute again to this wonderful site
Big thanks for my current incarnation on gaia to my wonderful friend JessehBoo, who gave me the character name Im currently using and supported me when times were tough ^_^
My name is Zola, though most will call me Fluff. I met Rhys a few months ago, and instantly fell in love with this charity, and the people who frequent it. I have always loved the thrill of giving, and just watching as someone flails with joy over even the smallest gift. When it comes to Gaia gifting is my passion, and to be able to do that here, in the charity built by a friend as selfless and caring as Rhys, well there just is no better place in this virtual world that I would rather call home.
Its a hassle, but lets get it out of the way.
If you dont read these, your chances of getting anything from this charity are minimal
1. The first word is Hello. Not, "hi, can I have...", just hello. Start a conversation first, talk about things you're doing, not about things you want. We only support active posters in the thread. If you pop in, ask for an item, and pop out, we're not interested. If you post your request as soon as you come into the thread, you will be ignored. You can look at it as getting back what you put in. Chat some, then post your request. I cant honestly evaluate your application until I know you a little. Besides, we're a fun and moderately insane bunch of people. You might like talking to us.[
2. Gifting MUST be on In the spirit of the thread, and my trusty side kick, you must be open to receiving gifts in order to be a part of this thread. You can have it set to non anonymous users only if you HAVE to be a total killjoy, but those who don't receive gifts from anyone will be teased and harassed unmercifully. If you don't want to receive gifts, don't post here and be awesome.
3. Be patient when waiting for a reply For best results, please post when the owner of the thread, rhysiepiecey, is actually around. I try to read back over previous posts, but sometimes this thread just moves too fast.
4. Read the request form thoroughly and edit it suitably. If you don't, you may find yourself in an embarrassing situation.
5. What we have is what we've got. We'll do what we can to help people, but we're trying to be fair and help everyone to the best of our abilities. If its not on the list, its not in the thread inventory. We might be able to find you the item you want, but you'll need a damn good reason to pry open the lock on Rhysie's wallet
6. Please no PMing the owner or thread helpers, unless specifically invited to. You will automatically be ignored if you PM begging for items, even if youre on their friends list
7. Play nice. We have a blacklist, though we try not to use it.
8. Respect the thread regs and all other people. If they've been here a long time, its because I like them and they like me. They've learned all the ins and outs of the threads, so listen to anything they have to say. Respecting their input may make all the difference in getting an item
9. I always welcome friends list requests, and it makes it that much easier for me to gift to you, so feel free. This doesn't grant you any special dispensations, but its nice to have friends
10. No bumping please. If you don't have anything constructive to say, dont say anything at all
11. Be patient. This is a message board system, not instant messaging. It may be some time before we even notice your post, and then we have to craft a witty response, which frankly can be impossible at times. Anyone found displaying insufficient or suitably irrational waiting skills may find themselves banned from the thread without further notice
12. monkeys
13. Anyone posting a ninja should be immediately and enthusiastically tackled by as many people as possible. Prizes may be awarded for the best or most original tackle. Hopefully this will encourage people to interact rather than just lurking
That's all for now. I'll probably add to it as the situation requires
