Welcome to Lighthouse! We hope that while you're here, you can find friends, funds, and most importantly, fun.
We're currently open. We have nearly 2,000,000 gold in funds.
We would like to thank FantasyStock for the stock image of the lighthouse, and jimmylovesdanielle and T-a-g-g-e-r for textures. You can click on their names to go to their deviantART pages!
*Note: I keep all funds on my current account. However, I have a trade with a mule of mine that keeps the funds separated from my personal gold. I will never use the funds for personal use.
--Read the ToS. Most important rule on Gaia, and it covers a lot that I won't go over because it's almost common sense. --Treat others the way you want to be treated. It's cheesy and over-used, but it's true. Think about what you say before you say it. Also with this, if you feel like you've been offended/someone has broken this rule against you, please don't think you can be rude back to them. Discuss it with me, another regular, or preferably, the user who offended you, in a nice way. --Please don't add bugs/flowers/paper/other junk to the trade when I give you a donation. I appreciate the thought, but I really have nothing to do with them except trash them, as they begin to clutter. --In order to receive a donation from Lighthouse, you must have been on Gaia for at least 100 days and have a quest thread with at least 10 pages. This is just to make sure that we're not giving donations to people who aren't serious about their quest, or people who might just leave Gaia in a month (as newer users tend to do more often than older ones). --Don't beg, excessively cuss, create large quote towers, or spam. This includes bumping when other people are having a conversation/are around.
Below is the code to receive donations. Please post it in the thread once. Once it's been posted, you need to make 10 posts before you will receive any donations from the charity; it's preferable that you number them in some way. Also, bumping will not count, so please try and hold a conversation. Also keep in mind that the longer you stick around and the more friendly you are, the more likely it is that I'll give you a better donation!

This is the list of awesome regulars. Becoming a regular is pretty simple - stick around and chat! Participate in contests, strike up a conversation, do whatever you prefer as long as it keeps you in the thread and you're friendly and following the rules. Please don't ask to become a regular; I'll decide who is and isn't considered a regular.
--AlyKitt_Ryukal has been a friend of mine since the summer of 2009. She's a bit quirky, but that makes her all the more fun! --username description here
This contest is pretty simple. It's a bumping contest. If you're participating in the contest, please number your bumps in your post; keep in mind that if you're making your 10 posts to get a donation, bumps won't count. You can count conversational posts, however. This contest is open to anyone, and will end August 31, 2011. First prize is 20k, second prize is 10k, and third prize is 5k. Anyone who bumps over 100 times gets 1k in addition to any prizes they win. Post any questions in the thread!
Pages, Pages, Pages!
Page contest time! There are different increments with different prizes. Once the page has filled with 15 posts (as in, page 25 is full, page 50 is full, etc.) I will have the random number generator pick a number 1-15. In pages that are multiples of 25 the prize will be 3k, and for every 100th page, the prize will be 17k. Obviously, this has no end date, and anyone can win!
--My first name in real-life is Emily. You can call me that, or any variation of my username you like. I most commonly go by B00kie. --I'm currently 16 years old and a sophomore at a kind-of private school. It's complicated. --I love cats. I have one, and I want another but my parents won't let me. I also like dogs, and have two. I want a hedgehog really, really badly. And a small snake. c: --I over-use typed-out emotes, especially certain ones like the one in the line above. I never use the image-emotes like the ones above the text box when posting. --I've always loved roleplaying, and I think I'm becoming a better writer/roleplayer. --I love drawing, and I have a Genius tablet that I quite like. Hit me up for a game of Draw my Thing, and you'll quickly become my friend. --I'm very opinionated. Please don't take anything I say offensively, and if you are offended, please let me know. I've run into a few problems with people when it comes to my opinions simply because I wasn't aware I was being offensive, and I don't want that to happen. --I love Harry Potter and all things related - especially A Very Potter Musical and the other StarKid Productions. If you haven't heard of it and you love Harry Potter, look it up on YouTube. You won't regret it. I also love Darren Criss (Harry in AVPM, but more widely known as Blaine on Glee, which I also love), James Marsden, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I have a very broad music preference, too.
To be affiliates, please PM either an 88x31 or 200x40 banner to me, and take one of my banners to put in your thread. I will check on your thread periodically to make sure that my banner is still there, and also to make sure your thread is still open and active.
