About the Charity:
The RFC, named Roaring Flames Charity, by the original creator AikaSama,
has been alive since May 2004. We've moved threads several times, but we're
still going strong. Since then, we have donated about 115, 000 to about 300
people, not including our events and contests. ^^ We like to chat, hang out
and meet new people, and have bunches of contests and parties for fun. Giving
gold away is fun, but meeting new people is more so. Stick around, bump our
thread, and win some prizes in the meantime.

Frequently Asked Questions
OMG! This totally ROX!!111!!! I want to go, can I come?
Of course, XD. Anyone can come to the party-ball-giveaway, and just the fact that you hang
out in the thread could win you some serious random door prizes. You don't have to
pay anything to hang out, chat, flatter the staff, or enter the free contests, it's all for
fun and for your enjoyment. But if you want a chance to win the labcoat, you'll have
to pay for that event.

I want A LABCOAT! GIVE IT TO ME biggrin OMO:
If you want to get the labcoat, you''ll have to buy a slot. Slots are 100g each, there will
be an unlimited amount, so feel free to buy as many slots as you want, as often as
you like. The winner will be chosen randomly with randomizer.org

Please, please can I have a door prize? Please? : crying :
You want one, you can get one very easy. Here's how.
-Hang out in the thread for at least 2 or 3 days of the event.
-Talk to all the charity staff members.
-Be fun, happy, and a cool person to hang out with.
Those are all of the requirements, seriously. I have so many items and a ton of gold, so chances
are, if you do those things you're gonna get some sort of prize. We're suckers at giving away
free stuff to people who will stay our friends, or are fun to talk to. But if you don't get one,
please don't complain.

Who can come/enter contests/buy raffle slots?
Anyone can come. ANYONE. Doesn't matter if you've been on gaia 2 years or two days.
This includes the charity staff. We love having people around, and throw events in to have fun.
It does take us some time and effort to acquire items and gold so please respect our rules, our
members, and anyone who chats in the thread.

How do I buy slots for the labcoat raffle? And who do I send the trade to?
To buy slots, you don't have to post or do anything special besides send a trade to RFC. You
MUST say something in the title about the trade being for the labcoat raffle, or we will not accept your
trade. If you are unable to edit the title in your trade, please post in the thread saying that your
trade is for the raffle, or PM RFC. It's very simple. Just let us know.

I have another question, who do I ask?
If your question isn't listed here, just post it in the thread. Don't worry about if anyone
asked it before, we have an incredible amount of patience when it comes to question-askers. If you
don't want to post it for everyone to see, PM RFC or princesspwrm. I don't mind PM's at all. ^^
