5. If so, what are you questing for and why? I want Family Jewels. I'm going for a bardic look with this avatar, and I think the jeweled belt will add something.

6. What item would you most enjoy splashing your savings at right now?(besides the thing you are questing for, if you're questing)
Hmmm....I'm not entirely sure about that one. I need to find some sort of appropriate musical instrument (harp, flute, etc.) if one exists, here.

7. What is your primary income source (where do you get most your gold from)?
I take a lot of polls and rate things in the arenas. There are also some guilds that I participate in where I do actually post some long discussion. But, mostly...polls and quizzes.

8. Do you beg?
Nope. I hate beggars in the MMOs that I play and I refuse to do it in any game.

9. If so, how does it feel? If not... good on you I guess!
Hurray for not begging!

10. On a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being the hardest, how hard do you find it to get sufficient funds on Gaia?
Probably about a 5. It's not all that difficult. Just time consuming. I end up doing this in between work over the course of the day, so it isn't bad. (I end up spending all my money buying tokens, though, so I'm constantly low on funds. Heh! My own fault.)

1. Do you prefer Anime or Manga? Why?
I prefer anime simply because I'm not used to reading a book "backwards." I keep getting myself turned around and reading the wrong direction and suddenly realizing that noting makes sense.

2. Which is your favourite Anime?
Oh, now...this is a tough one. I think I'm going to have to go with Cowboy Bebop as my all-time favorite. (My current love, though, is Avatar. I'm not sure if that counts as anime since it is an American cartoon, though.)

3. What makes this Anime your favourite?
I just in love with the characters. Plus, I found myself drawn in by the mystery of Spike, who he was in the past and who was this Julia person. Besides that, the series music kicked butt.

4. How did you learn about the existence of Anime?
You know, I don't even remember. I've always loved cartoons. I mean, here I am, 33 years old and I still watch Cartoon Network more than any other channel.
I think the first anime that I saw was Record of Lodoss Wars. Being a roleplayer, I think that that was shown to me by a fellow RPer.

5. Where do you get your Anime?
Sometimes, I pick it up at Suncoast. Sometimes, I eBay. It just depends on the cost and the availability within the US.

6. What was your very first Anime encounter?
Not sure what you mean by this. It seems like a repeat of "how did you learn about the existence of anime?"

7. How do you look upon that Anime now?
I love it!...well, not all of it. But, most of it. Like everything else, there are going to be good anime and bad anime.

8. What language do you prefer watching (listening to) Anime in?
I think I prefer to listen to it in Japanese and read subtitles. Sometimes, the English voices seem a bit...off....to me.

9. How do you feel about free fansubs (quality, legal/ not legal etc.)?
I've never given it much thought, in all honesty. I haven't seen many fansubs, myself, so I can't comment upon the quality. (And, I don't speak Japanese, so I have no idea how well anything is translated.)
As far as the legality of it...feh. I think had you asked me this question before the movie industry and RIAA went on their little witch hunts, I would've disapproved of it. But with all the hullabaloo going on and the (ridiculous) measures that industry is taking, I don't care, at this point.
