Updates are always in red:Aviod making thousands of threads:

Announcement

As of 4-1-05 I will been seen little of around the guild. Personally, I'm sick of the s**t flung at me thru hatemail and that have follwed me from that mail and onto my exchange threads. I'll be here, but I doubt I'll be posting

Welcome to my thread.....well Sticky now. ^^

While I do have my own quest I would like to do my best to help others on theres in anyway I can. now I'm not the richest gaian and my quest is quite long so I may not always be able to help gold wise but I have spent alot of my gaian life in the Chairity forum (you may have seen me I owned the CCCharity) so I do know the ropes to getting donations and helping yourself on your way to questing.

What you'll find:

Quest tips/Ways to help your quest (Important do's and don'ts od questing)
Shop (Common items people quest for)
Art (get great art without destroying your quest)
Quest links (Did your quest make it on the list?)
My Quest (Yep I have a dream to)

Tips for the common quester:

I spent ALOT of time in the charity forum helping people out but thats so big and I'm only one person, So be happy your here and learn well off these tips. They will help you in the long run to acheiveing your dream avy.

Your thread

**4-22-05 Aviod making multiple threads!**
Please as common courtesy Don't make multiple threads, the reasoning of "no one was looking" Isnt fair. Making multiple threads makes junk threads and just makes a mound of unused threads to take up space. Also it annoys people to see you making a new thread over and over and over if you are indecisive of what you want to quest for then just edit your threads DO NOT MAKE NEW ONES.


**4-3-05 Common Quest thread mistake**
Ok people lets get this out there. NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR POOR PATHETIC "OH WOE IS ME" STORY OF HOW YOU'LL DIE TO COMPLETE YOUR QUEST! So don't bother writeing it! In your quest you want your contents on your first post and your next post to be info about the item(s) you want. Do NOT add a story on how you joined and begged for them and cried and where crushed no one could give you it. It really just makes people look the other way, your not getting sympathy points from it.

1.ALWAYS be polite. I don't care how much you hate a person if you are rude others will see that and theres a little thing called Karma that'll bite you in the a**. Also on gaia everything is a connection web if you piss off one person you in turn piss off there friends and there friends and you never know some of those people may have wanted to donate to you before you pissed them off.

2.Be clear and organized When setting up a thread, make sure its neat, organized, and easy to read if your thread looks like something that was just thrown together people don't think of you as very determined and don't have much intrest in helping you. Remember also to be clear and to the point, I hate to say it but no one cares about your life story, tell them quickly mabe why you want it but leave it at just that.

3.Don't look greedyEven if your organized watch out on how many items you have advertized that you want. People love the organized threads but if you quest for too much all at once people may start to think you'r greedy and look the other way. If you are questing for a sash, nm scarf, and OMG hat, start with the Nm scarf and don't even mention the other 2 until you are finished with the first item. Do them one at a time. Its not a race afterall.

4.Try hard to help yourself, No matter how helpless it seems don't give up, if you give up people see it as your not trying to help yourself, you can't rely on donations and hope it'll get you there. You must must must help yourself before anyone decides to help you. If you do decide to quit it is courtious to return what was donated.

5.Don't be obnoxious Writeing big so minic yelling or writing in hot pink or yellow may be fun for you but not the people reading. Its not a good idea if the people wanting to donate has to feel they are being yelled at or squint cause your writing too small. No one wants to have to highlight to read either avoid light colors if you want to write in colors make sure its dark enough for all people to see.

6.Get Creative and attract attention Something like "my isane quest" to people means you want a halo and are never gona get it so why bother donating to you. You need something thats not gona take them forever to read a short catchy title will do the trick in attracting the right attention to your thread. For a more detailed description on how to do this, check out KK's guide to the prefect quest thread.

7.NO NETSPEAK I don't care how cool you think it is people are annoyed by net speak it will get you no where. You need to learn to type properly, netspeak is a pain to read and so people will litterally just quit reading.

Helping yourself

***4-16-05 List your quest ***
Its always a good idea to look for anyways to get your guild out there and avdertized. While listing in a huge "questing guide" isnt always helpfull, its never hurtfull. And many thanks you Staci the Air Goddess the guild now has one of its own.
Quest listing guide
So submit your form and get listed, and don't stop there, tradeing links with other questers or charitys to have your quest listed there is always a good idea, you never know who may click the link and decide to help out. WARNING Whatever you to, DO NOT advertize it. Always ask before posting a link.

**4-6-05** Kosake has approved,
I am allowed to link you to poll guilds.
All the listed guilds are Free to join (I am a member of all of them) just request to jion and say your on a quest and they will allow you to join.
Remember polls give you 10-13g per poll depending on your post count and you must make a post between poll votes.
Magical Poll land
-poll world-

lost of polls to earn you lots of gold
the money pit

1.Don't beg. I cannot stress this enough no matter how desperate you are don't beg, no one wants to help a beggar because its annoying and shows you have little or no self respect.

2.Polls Polls are a questers best friend, run thru the forums just looking for those polls. You don't have to care the question or what your answering just hit every poll you see indicated by the [Poll] by the thread title.

3.Exchange vs. Vend That market place has opened up new whole new prices. Don't play favorites on either the vend or the exchange use them both because an item worth 2k on the exchange may be worth 4k in the vend. Remember to check both places before selling an item worth 2k on the exchange may be worth 4k in the vend. Remember to check both places before selling an item.

4.Post Post, chat, rp, deal, it doesnt matter what it is just post, get your post count up show your active member of gaia. xXx_Shaggy_2_Dope_xXx is an excellent example of this noticeing hes posted bump in every dang thread in the, but thats ok in fact its more then ok its a great way to get your post count up and be active.
