For a while I was really afraid to post in AT, and every time I asked for a rate and suggestions, I never got very encouraging responses. But then I realized that the AT was known for that, and with how artistic I am I wanted to flourish in that forum more. So I caught on to the behaviors on there, and have grown close to those ATers who are just as creative as me, and find comfort with either color schemed avatars, textures, or just crazy characters in general. Now I love AT and I call it a home. I'm friends with quite a few people there, and people know my name. It's nice to know people recognize me there. heart
Exchange still intimidates me a bit. For one, I can't stand when people try and low-ball to the point where it's not worth the profit, or when you buy something but at least wanting to buy it for a bit lower then the MP price but they snap at you because they want it as close to the penny as possible. People keep bringing in MP prices regardless of what people say about the Exchange being different the the MP. If it's so different, then why bring in MP prices to begin with. Stick with the averages and go from them! Stop nit-picking and keep those transactions reasonable! scream
My other home is the Fashion and Style, because I post in the Goth thread from time to time (I'm friends with the main girl who post in that thread, so we chat there every once in a while.) Plus I love fashion in general. heart
Other than that I just lurk other threads. Lifestyle Discussion I post something every once in a while, though most of those topics are childish to me. Only a few threads out there in that forum I respect a little.
I lurk this forum a lot as well. Though I've gotten more familiar with it and it's regulars. I usually like to look at the hot gossip and suck up the drama with some of Gaia's events and GC drama. It amuses me sometimes. emotion_dowant But I also love the item updates and I flow the evolution threads to see how people utilize new item poses and stuff. Just more avatar talk really. I don't know whether this is a home for me or not. For now I'll call it my neighborhood because I am part of the community after all.
