Rules! surprised Or, how to not make me snap and kill you. D:
If you're seeking a donation, you must follow these rules and answer the stupid questions below when you post your application. surprised
You must set the post style to "Document" in the little dropdown menu if you are posting a request. This makes it MUCH easier for me to find applications. All I have to do is scroll down and see the big yellow box. Don't do the same with bumps.
Also, leave out post decorations/signature-type things that appear inside the body of the post. This includes the little excerpts of poetry, sparkly images, and other things that hurt my brain. Trust me, the "Document" post style will make your request noticeable enough.
-What are you questing for?
-How long have you been at it?
-How much do you have already?
-How much does the item cost?
-Post a link to your thread.
And listen to this helpful advice. :3
-If I donate to you, please be polite. gonk Change the subject of the trade to something nice (can you still do that? D: ), or thank me in this thread, or PM/IM me or something so I know you appreciate it. Otherwise, I might cancel the trade. D: In fact, do it whenever ANYONE donates to you, because it makes you not look like an ungrateful piece of s**t. biggrin
-Don't PM me with your application. Post it here. If you have any questions, I'd prefer it if you posted them instead of PMing me.
-Don't beg me to give you stuff, either in this thread or through PM/IM. If you're seeking donations, be civilized. gonk Actually, don't beg ANYONE. surprised
-Don't donate to me! surprised I know you're trying to be nice. xd Why not help out another charity or a quester instead? 3nodding
-Be nice. Not just in this thread, but in any thread. whee
-Don't advertise anywhere. gonk
-People are giving you stuff for no reason. Thank them all! surprised
Other things:
-Your quest must be somewhat feasible. No halo/bear hat quests, please.
-If you're questing for something really expensive, make sure you have a significant percentage of it completed before you ask me for donations. Otherwise, come back when you have more. Prove you're dedicated.
-No quests for hairstyles, art, breedables, or store items under 30k. Store items have fixed prices, and I've always been a little leery about breedables and art quests because of scams.
-Make sure your quest is significant. Most donation items under 25k in the marketplace generally don't qualify as significant, unless they're extremely subject to inflation. I'll be the judge.
I reserve the right to cancel a trade if you don't express some appreciation, either through a post here or a PM. I also reserve the right to select who I donate to, and who I don't. Don't annoy me if I don't donate to you. If you're the kind of person that does that, you don't deserve it. gonk
Hope you read that. Consider it before you post a request. But like I said, if you have a LONG way to go, come back when your quest has grown significantly and I'll try to help as best as possible. 3nodding
