You may do a free form introduction- but if the muses allude you for the time being here is a sample of some basic questions to get you started. You may include photos of yourself or your pet with your intro. But please, make sure there isn't nudity/inappropriate material in the photos. Posting such would be a little like showing up naked for the first day of school, no?
1. Screenname/Real First Name
2. Age/Years On Gaia. Please be Honest, Hank is working on a Carbon Dating Lab as we speak twisted
3. Occupation/Schooling- Do not be ashamed if the answer to this question is unemployed, self employed, or stay-at-home-parent, times are tough.
4. Would you be a Ninja or Pirate?
5. Artist, Geek, or Both?
6. Pets? Funny Stories? Something for which other guild members can remember you by and make a connection to you based upon common interests????

Welcome Silphy! You have the awesome title of first member- we'll make you a wicked cool hat.
Can you tell us a little bit about what like/dislike about Gaia and what you'd like to see out of the guild?
A rock on for Rats, I keep wanting to get one and name it Nicodemus.

secret of nimh? correct? I remeber that movie haveing a rat by that name and also I remeber it being GOD!!!!!! I want to go buy it now that I remeber it.
likes and dislikes about gaia... I like. . . that I occasionally find awsome people here! dislikes, pretty much everything else. PP fails to deliver helpful critiqes, or anything beyong flaming, ED and GD are the same threads that's been there since the dawn of gaia. I have a hard time finding people that are relatible in the forum setting.
And out of the guild I would like to be able to have conversations with people who have simlar interests but don't type like crazy people and run off on naruto rants. And I'm also here so I can feel old. I'm in a guild other people are to young for, i love it.
Yay! first member!

Nicodemus was a pimp, undeniably. Secret of NIMH is one of my favorite movies-- it's one of the few I forgive for drastically deviating from the book. I am also biased because I am an avid fan of Don Bluth's movies. I love the style but mostly i love that Bluth tends to support projects that have a certain feel to them--a sense of magic or mystery.
I've found that Gaia Guilds are the best place to find conversation and make friends. My intent is once I've fleshed out the structure of the guild and started recruiting to create a pleasant place for people to discuss and share works. My co-founder and I didn't want it to be narrowed down too much, but still have an emphasis. We've both recently come from another 21+ guild where we were both moderators and we enjoyed the community-- but we wanted to start our own guild and build upon the ideas in a new way.

1. Screenname/Real First Name Bakura Amane/Christy
2. Age/Years On Gaia. Please be Honest, Hank is working on a Carbon Dating Lab as we speak 27 years young (going on 28 )/almost 5 years (will be 5 in October eek )
3. Occupation/Schooling- Do not be ashamed if the answer to this question is unemployed, self employed, or stay-at-home-parent, times are tough. Right now I'm a seasonal cashier, but looking for something else/I am an animation student (it's my senior year...graduating in December! blaugh )
4. Would you be a Ninja or Pirate? I heart ninjas! Ninja, ninja! ninja ninja (Okay, I'd better stop before this whole post becomes ninjas. lol )
5. Artist, Geek, or Both? Probably both. I am sooo much of an artist that I can't stand not drawing or animating something, but yet I know HTML (taught myself), XML (again taught myself), GWBASIC (now I'm really dating myself and again self taught), and so many other "geek-y" things it's probably not even worth mentioning at the moment.
6. Pets? Funny Stories? Something for which other guild members can remember you by and make a connection to you based upon common interests???? Well, we have one pet turtle (Timmy) who has been trying lately to escape his tank. whee Right now (since I'm not having that great of a day) I can't think of anything too funny. Sorry, I'll post one some other time. sweatdrop

Headhunter/Ryan
2. Age/Years On Gaia.
24/ 5 years on Gaia. I joined a few months after the site went up, I think

I unload trucks at a department store. I have two years of school for computer science (which I hated, I found out), a degree in Arts and Sciences and an in progress degree for English.
4. Would you be a Ninja or Pirate?
Ninja. Cooler weapons. Cooler tools. Cooler clothes. Cooler names.
5. Artist, Geek, or Both?
No artistic ability, but I do like to write Sci Fi and Fantasy mostly. Lately I've been trying to do non-genre stuff, though. As far as geek stuff goes, I like Warhammer and and Warhammer 40,000. I also like Star Wars and various comic book heroes
6. Pets? Funny Stories? Something for which other guild members can remember you by and make a connection to you based upon common interests????
I've never owned a pet *shrugs*

I just realized I failed to mention I also have schooling in corporate communications (think public relations, advertising and such), but I don't like it much and thus why I returned to school. 3nodding

What's up, everyone? Glad to see some old faces and new ones as well.
1. Dafthank/Real name is Henry, but I go by Hank most of the timeas well.
2. 25 years old with almost 5 years on Gaia. By the way, there is no carbon dating lab for age verification, but the hacker program I use will do the same job...
3. Went to UNLV for for years for elementary education, but stopped short when I received my teaching certificate early. Right now, I work at a nightclub. Apparently I got lost somewhere on the way, but I'm looking for my way back.
4. Why should I settle for one or the other? I'd be both. All the sneaky tendencies, plus, you get a boat!
5. Both. I used to read sprite comics all the time, and that's what got me into creating my own. Just got a new Hanvon Art tablet, so I'm sure you'll see a few things from me here and there
6. I have a 10 month old orange tabby named Miso. I have way too many funny stories to count, but as threads grow, I'm sure that you'll hear some of them. I love doing contests and special events, so you'll probably see a lot of things and giveaway related to art and whatnot. As for something to remember me by? Well, I guess that I'm the polar opposite of our guild leader, so her and I go back and forth all the time with not so subtle quips about appearance, intelligence, moral fiber, etc... in comics and forum chats. It's all in good fun, and hopefully, I'll be able to make new friends and be able to harass you the same way I harass her.
