Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Come on into the water!" - JAWS

WELCOME
Welcome to Fish 'N Chips, your one stop shop for your very own pet shark. From concept to creation, these sharks are not your mindless feeders of the sea's bounty. They have their own minds, their own strategies, and most of all... their own appetites.

Though not required, Roleplaying is allowed and encouraged. If there is enough interest, I'll create a complete world where the sharks rule, and landlubbers drool. And who knows... maybe there will be more... ninja

1. For the love of the ocean, don't steal the artwork. Or it won't be pretty. Blood in the water and sharks circling, that kind of not pretty.
2. Don't beg for gold, pets, or whatever other thing you might strike for. Sharks can sense weakness. (And so can ninja.)
3. Be civil. Swearing and other inappropriate behavior around the shop will result in your proverbial hands getting bitten off. Snappish attitudes are reserved for sharks only!
4. For ALL shop inquiries, ONLY PM the mule account, Fish+Chips. PMing misago3 or anyone else is futile.
5. Do not re-sell your pet sharks, or they will turn on you and eat you.
6. Co-owning your pets is not allowed unless indicated. Keep it simple folks.
7. Do Not whine or complain about the slowness of the coloring/certing. The captain of the ship has more things to do than swim with the fishes all the time.
8. Workers for the shop are not to be hassled. Period.
9. Personal updates Will Not be PMed to you. General updates will be made available through an upcoming mailing list.
10. Be careful when you feed the sharks.

FLATSALE

Pick-up your certs here. Make sure you direct link your sharks! This will ensure that you will see your sharks grow. Please save Breaching-stage sharks to your own servers, as they will be removed from my server 1 week after reaching the Breaching stage.
