Helpful Tips for Questers!

If you make an effort into making your quest thread appealing, more people will want to help you. It doesn't have to be anything special, just organized, maybe adding some color to spice it up a bit.

Let people know what your questing for and why. List your donators so they know that you appreciate them. List where you are in your quest for gold and what the goal amount is. Using proper grammar and being polite always is a bonus as well.

When you bump your thread do not put in the stare or gonk/stress/yell emotes, or ask why people are not donating when you have only got to the second page. Nothing turns off a potential donator like your impatience and bad temper as you are bumping. Try to bump with patience and graciousness, knowing that everything you do in that thread tells the donator about how you are as a person.

If someone bumps your thread, despite if they donated to you or not, it is always nice to thank them. Maybe try and start a conversation with them? It looks good, and is the best type of bump you can get.

Patience is always a virtue. Especially while questing. If you are working for a more expensive item, it could take a while so be prepared.

Make your quest thread your own individual space. It should reflect you. However for a simple layout of how a quest thread could look, here is a basic frame.

Helpful tips on how to earn gold

.:There are many ways to earn gold, besides begging for donations. Here are some hints as to how to make money :.

-Play games. They give out money, and as you get better at them, you can get more.

-Post regularly. While it decreases as you go, you can still make a fair amount just by posting regularly.

-Do polls. Again while it decreases, you can make a pretty penny from polling. And you will never have to worry about finding them here right? wink

-Vote in the Arenas. Like the others it decreases, but it adds up.

-Keep a journal. Again, decreases, but it helps.

-Play the market. Basically, buying low and selling high. Here is a lovely guide to learning to play the market.

-Are you artistic? Open a shop! Be it an art shop, a tektek shop, or a graphics shop. Or any other you can come up with! People are willing to spend their money on such things. Its just up to you to welcome their orders.

The List of Lovely Charities

.:This list is compiled of many charities, for when you need that extra boost in reaching your goal:.

- Picking Up The Pixels is a charity made for accounts who have been hacked or scammed out of their items. If you have not been hacked or scammed, this is not the charity for you. However if you have, you will find a sympathetic ear, and a possibility of help getting back on your feet.


- The Butterfly Eyes Charity, while it is not a high dollar charity, it is a nice place with a friendly atmosphere. They help were they can, when they can. This charity is made to help anyone. They also host fun contests!


-Gaians Deserve Ice Cream Charity, is a simple, no nonsense charity, available to anyone. There is no trick in the application to get a donation, and a very nice atmosphere.
