Welcome, newbies!

[COLOR=#0F8A7D][SIZE="1"]I noticed a lot of blog posts are from new and confused people, and I am an old and oriented person here to provide help.
First of all, welcome to Menewsha :]

Remember to read the [url=http://www.menewsha.com/forum/faq.php]rules[/url] of the site before you do anything! This place operates very differently from Gaia, and we wouldn't want you to be getting in trouble. You can also read [url=http://www.menewsha.com/forum/community/fresh-meat/73882-how-do-i-earn-gold-newbie-gold-earning-guide.html]the gold earning guide[/url] and the [url=http://www.menewsha.com/forum/community/fresh-meat/94039-newbie-starter-guide-updated-july-4-2008-a.html]newbie guide[/url] if you want to, but I imagine you don't because you're here.

To answer the most commonly asked question:
[b]How do I gain gold/what's the fastest way to get gold?[/b]
Post! You earn gold per character, so post often and make your posts well thought out. This will get you the most gold. Also, you can make 500g per day per account (but you may only have TWO ACCOUNTS, one main and one mule) playing the games. If you have the skills, selling art/exchanging can also be quite profitable.

My tips to new and upcoming Menewshans:
-DON'T DOUBLE POST! I see this happening all the time, but you get an infraction for it. It is NOT okay to double post unless you are setting up a shop.
-Seriously, read the rules. 4realz.
-Be sociable! The best way to make friends is to jump into threads and just start chatting. We're friendly, don't worry.
-Don't worry about being naked. Everyone started off naked, and you'll find newbies actually do get respect. (And please, don't ask for starter packs/gold in the suggestions forum...)
-Be as literate as you can. Your fellow Menewshans will thank you.
-Patience, young ones. Don't panic if the threads here are much slower than what you're used to. We have a much smaller population. (Also, take our relative smallness into account when you're wondering why we don't have feature X or Y. These things will come eventually.)
[strike]-Once you obtain a reasonable amount of gold, give it to your Fabs[/strike] >_> <_<

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! If you just don't like me, you can make a thread in the information desk - after you read the [url=http://www.menewsha.com/forum/main/information-desk/67535-how-do-i-what-can-i-have-all-more-answered-here-faqs-please-read-o.html]FAQ[/url] to see if your question is answered already.

I think that covers the basics. Have fun![/SIZE][/COLOR]
