Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rules

Guild rules apply

1. Don't hate on the newbies because their newbies. We were all new once.

2.Newbies don't be noobs. There is a difference. I found a very good definition of this by GCD Black Mage:

"A newbie, or newb, is an individual who is new but eager to learn - and fit in. While he or she will make mistakes, these are usually quickly corrected and he or she will eventually grow into a well-rounded individual, maybe one day well-known for his or her own witty personality.

A noob, however, is a corruption of the above individual. While new (or resembling someone new), they are often arrogant and self-important. They believe (or pretend to believe) that they are the greatest person alive, and when their mistakes are pointed out, often respond (rather than with a "thank you" and maybe "how do I move it?" which, while naive, is also well-intended) with "STFU AND GTFO OF MY FORUM!" Or something to that effect.

Noobs will beg, yammer on about their lives, etc. no matter what forum they're in. They'll inevitably "bump" even if it's unnecessary - scratch that, ESPECIALLY when it's unnecessary. They are a plague upon society, the internet equivalent of those idiots who talk throughout movies - often not even about the movies - and very loudly."

that pretty much sums it up

3.No begging!

4.No fighting!

5.Be respectful of each other

An adoption is when an older and/or more experienced member of Gaia takes a newbie under their wing and pretty much takes care of them, with whatever they need.

Kinda like your own personal guide.

Adoptions also allow you to connect with another person and make a friend

Would you like me to adopt you then? xp

really? well keep it mind biggrin
