Eggs For Fledglings! New User Charity and Donation Center for Unloved Easter Eggs!! NOW OPEN!!
 
Eggs For Fledglings!!

A Charity Devoted to Throwing Eggs at New Users!

It's a good thing...really!! ^_^'

Allow me to explain...

While tidying up my inventory (a chore which I take on about once a year ^_^' ), I noticed (not for the first time) that my duplicate drawer was overflowing...with eggs. You see, a while back Mene had a fascinating Easter event in which users participated in an Easter egg hunt over the entire site. The eggs we found were the EIs (rare event items) for that event. The game worked beautifully and it was great fun! However, there were so many clues that finding all the answers meant a person could easily rack up almost a dozen sets of colorful EIs. I did just that, as did many other devoted users. So, the site is sort of awash in Easter eggs. That makes them nearly worthless on the marketplace and the exchange....

However, I have occasionally given Egg sets away to brand new users and they always seem to appreciate the opportunity just to have a few shinies to play with while they earn gold to buy the things they really want. I know it's not easy being the nekkid new kid on the site. I remember my own first days on Mene and it seemed to take forever to earn those first real clothes.

I've been pondering opening a charity for a while. I like having the chance to pass on some of the generosity I've encountered on these forums...but I'm not a super wealthy Menewshan. I don't have vast hoards of gold stored away on my mule and I don't play games to get my max gold each day. *shrugs* So, I was stumped....until I saw all those shiny little eggs lined up in my inventory.

Which brings us to my point (what do you mean "Finally!" ? ;) )...



To Summarize My Text Wall:

I want to spread these excess Easter EIs to the new and nekkid hoards of Mene!!

Please read the thread rules in post #2.

If you are new to Mene and want to request a set of eggs all your own see post #3.

If you have eggs cluttering up your inventory that you would like to donate or sell see post #4.

Post #5 and #6 will be reserved for future contests I may host for prizes other than Easter eggs.

See post #7 for links to other fabulous charities (once I get the links up).

Do you have piles of Easter Eggs shoved in some abandoned corner of your inventory, collecting dust? Would you rather have the warm fuzzy feeling that comes along with helping new users experience the joys of letting a bunny fish off their heads or sporting a stylish carrot necktie? If your answer to both these questions is "Yes!" then feel free to send me a trade with your unwanted eggs (please post here to let me know you've started one, my notifications are borked). I have set up a separate drawer in my inventory containing only eggs in preparation for running this charity so your donations will be safe until a new user comes along to claim them.

Those interested in selling their stockpile of eggs, I am willing to offer 1 gold per egg. I know that isn't much but it is a guaranteed buyer for an item that otherwise might linger in your shop for months. *shrugs* PM me if you are interested and we'll work out details.

Saravi Boo 12-20-2011 05:49 AM

This should be plenty of room for me to set this up so feel free to post now if you like while I work on finishing the construction. ^_^

EDIT: Mostly done for the moment. The basics are all set. ^_^ Now I need to sleep. Then tomorrow maybe I can rope in some nekkid people to throw eggs at. ^_^

Saravi Boo 12-20-2011 03:05 PM

*pokes thread* Hello. Doesn't anyone want some shiny free eggies? O_o' Or just to talk to me? lol

hummy 12-20-2011 03:09 PM


much luck with your eggie-stravganza-give-away!

Estrella 12-20-2011 03:24 PM

I know I don't have eggs on my account but I'll check Broseph later tonight.

Saravi Boo 12-20-2011 11:38 PM

Thanks Hummy! ^_^ Thanks Strelly! ^_^

Now...I think I'll go prowl the fresh meat forum for nekkid people. ^_^

scholar 12-21-2011 01:08 AM

What a great idea! I have some spare Easter eggs, I think -- let me root around a bit.

Saravi Boo 12-21-2011 04:58 AM

Thanks Scholar. ^_^ Now if I could just catch some people to take me up on my offer.

Dottie Mae Evans 12-21-2011 04:40 PM

I have sent over some eggs. :heart: I think Burger King might have eggs, but I am not too sure.

Saravi Boo 12-21-2011 04:59 PM

Thanks Lizzy! ^_^ *huggles*

woohoohelloppl 12-21-2011 07:45 PM

Saravi, you should use the [noparse][/noparse] or [html][/html] tag instead of The [code][/code] tag. the [code][/code] stopped working correctly a while ago, so the BBcode doesn't show up in it.

I have sent a trade. :)
1 :gold: per egg would be great, but it's up to you to decide if you want to pay or not.
I think there are 88 eggs unless I miscounted.

Saravi Boo 12-21-2011 08:00 PM

Wow thanks! Umm...I'll take your word on that count. That's a lot of eggs. ^_^

Thanks for the coding info as well. I was wondering what I did wrong there. ^_^

cleo873 12-21-2011 10:21 PM

Ummmm. I'll take some eggs please

Q U E E N 12-22-2011 01:12 AM

I'll send over some eggs to you...might take a while to dig them up out of different drawers though, good luck on this charity~ :D

I think it's a great idea!

Saravi Boo 12-22-2011 02:00 AM

Thanks Quarter Queen. ^_^ I'll look forward to your donation.

cleo873: I will be happy to help you with that request as soon as you meet the post requirement and submit your form. ^_^ Do you have any questions or other things you'd like to talk about?

cleo873 12-22-2011 02:03 AM

Nothing else right now but if i do have a question i'll let you know :)

Saravi Boo 12-22-2011 02:05 AM

Well let's chat then, so you can earn those eggies fast. ^_^ How are you liking mene so far?

cleo873 12-22-2011 04:27 AM

I'm still not really sure what to think of it. it'll probably be better once i make friends on here so i can talk to more people
