1. The newbie (a person who joined Gaia less than three months ago) posts the following form IN THIS THREAD, including a tektek of a dream "starter" avi costing no more than 4000 gold. (Difficult, but possible.)

2. Established Gaians who are interested in adopting a newbie PM me telling me how much gold or which items they wish to donate. (Sorry, for fairness' sake, no requests for particular newbies are being accepted. First come, first adopted. We move down the list in order.)

3. Once I have enough donors to cover the cost of the avi, the pieces will be purchased and delivered to the newbie as a set.

4. I will edit the post to show that the newbie has been adopted and who the donors are.


And thus begins a beautiful friendship between the adoptee and his or her adopters. Eventually the newbie returns to this thread to help out another little nublet, and the circle of life continues. xd :

wow, lol...and that's the one that took me an hour to recruit!!!! that sucks...oh well heh


Yes, it seems like it took an hour to do everything with her. First she left comments on my profile, so I told her to go back and read the note I left on her posting. So she PM'd me and told me she couldn't figure it out. I messaged her back and told her how to set up a quest thread and gave her some tips for making people more likely to donate to her. Then she told me she couldn't find the subforum, and after two of us told her where it was, she managed to post in it. Then these threads showed up in 7 OR 8 DIFFERENT PLACES, so I gave up. I'm totally willing to put the time into somebody who is willing to learn, but I only have so much patience for situations like this. stare

Yes, newbies are something I can deal with ... noobs aren't.

OK, ladies, we have our first adoptee. I'll PM you details in a minute.

@ Superalim: Nice try, LOL! I'm going to count ticket items as equivalent to 2 gold per ticket, since that is the approximate price in the MP. But we'll get you set up with the non-ticket items so you can be on the way to your dream avi before long. whee
