Welcome to the Gaian Better Business Center. We are a different kind of reference thread. We have just moved to a new guild called Miscellanea. To celebrate this new location the BBC has done something I wanted to do for a long time! The BBC will do for Petitions and User Journals as it does for Minishops! The guild will include a "People Magazine" for Gaia, polls, anything discussion forum, and more. While the links are in the guild all forms are to be posted in this thread. Otherwise you'd have to be a member of the guild in order to rate! Very inconvenient!! >__< So we convenientized it for you. =D The forms are found in this thread to be posted in this thread.
Under each shop there is a something we call the Report Number. Report Numbers are the BBC's lifeline. If you think a shop/petition/journal looks interesting, click on the number to see what people have to say about it. Great, huh? This saves you from skimming through pages and pages of comments and talking to see how much people like the shop/petition/journal! Imagine the gold you'll be able to earn by saving time. I would like to point out that I use the term "Report Number" as a good thing. Report Number is just another word I use for the journal entry number. Look below for an example. This journal entry's URL looks like this.
http://www.gaiaonline.com/journal/index.php?mode=view&p=8760222 Note the 8760222 at the end. That is the report number for that shop only. Every shop has it's own number.
To Owners of things being Rated: if you wish your fans's to report their satisfaction to your shop/petition/journal it would be logical to link back, it would be even better if you include your shop's Report Number.

Wow, the BBC is having a string of bad luck. We lose two of our best of the best shops because they were banks. Then the journals go down for a couple of days making the BBC stuck in the mud. NOW SOME OF THE REPORT NUMBER IMAGES DON'T WORK. I bolded it so that some people could spot it better. I have an idea what happened and I can fix it easily. All you have to do to fix it is post here giving me the report number and shop name and it will be fixed soon. OR they are also fixed when there is a brand new comment for the shop. sweatdrop
Apparently tinyurl.com has a bandwidth limit before the url is canceled. They mentioned nothing of this on their website so I don't know what to think.

The BBC has moved to a guild! All forms must be filled out and posted HERE!! Doesn't matter if it's a minishop, petition, or journal. I don't want to have to go through tons of locations to find these forms all over a guild.

I have changed the poll to help make the BBC better. In an attempt to make the BBC different than other reference threads I decided to separate the shops not by what they do, but by what forum they're in. I have decided that may not be the best way to do it... a few months ago but I hesitated to change it. So vote in the poll and tell me if you think I should re-arrange the BBC to change from forum classification to shop type classification. Here is what I mean:
Instead of putting all of the minishops in the main forum uner "Main Forum" I put all of the art/graphics threads in one spot.
