~*~ Flight of the Bumblebee ~*~ A newbie's quest for bright, sunshiney fun!
 

Hi, and welcome to my quest, Flight of the Bumblebee! My name is Robin, but you can call me Robin-chan. I'm a newbie here on Menewsha, and due to my indecisive nature, I immediately thought of an idea for an avatar AFTER I already named it. So included in this quest for an outfit (not that boxers are that bad!) is also a quest for a name change. Will I be able to accomplish this? Probably, yeah. It'll just take a bit of posting, art-selling, and maybe a little help from you!

Thanks for stopping by! Even if you can't donate, I ask you kindly to at least post or talk with me. It can get kinda lonely in these, especially when you start on a new site with no friends!

~*~ Rules ~*~
1. Please be kind to everyone in the thread, including me!
2. Follow all rules of the site; this means no spamming, trolling, flaming, etc.
3. Don't stretch the page! It's annoying. Very annoying.
4. Don't advertise your site/quest page/shop/etc. in my thread. If you want me to link you in the links post, then send me a PM and I'll add your link/banner.
5. Stay around and chat! I doubt this will get that much attention unless I have people to talk to in order to keep this thread alive.
6. Those who donate to me may be awarded free doodles or sketches, depending on if I'm in a drawing mood or your kindness has struck a chord in my heart. <3
7. You don't HAVE to donate, but if you do, please let me know if you want your name listed or if you want your donation to be anonymous. If you do not specify this, I'll assume it's okay to put your username. If it is not, then please send me a PM.
8. Normal people beware - I'm a nerd. A super-nerd. I'm also kind of crazy.
9. No begging me for items or gold! This should be a given, considering I don't have much of anything, but just in case, I'm putting it here. Don't beg me for art, either, or to make banners for you. (they won't come out that well, anyway)
10. This quest may take a long, long time. If you become light-headed, feel free to pass out. An incubation associate will be dispatched to revive you with peptic salve and adrenaline.
11. These rules go up to eleven!

~*~ F.A.Q. ~*~
Q: Why are you doing this?

A: Because I can can can can can can can can caaaaan! Isn't it obvious? Being naked has its perks, but I don't want my avatar to freeze to death. Plus, I love designing and making different outfits on all the avatar sites I visit, so this place is no exception! And what else am I gonna do in the mean time, huh?

Q: Why is your quest named "Flight of the Bumblebee"?

A: I have a huge crush on Bumblebee from Transformers (namely, the films), and lots of people have written stories where Bee has a sort of holo-form (that is, he looks like a human). I've tried to imagine how he looks in this form, and then dug through the items in the MAC to create a good outfit for him on here! So, these items and this quest are for him, basically.

Q: Why is your avatar a guy? Aren't you a girl?

A: Again, this is because of dear Bumblebee. I thought about making a girl avatar like I usually do on other sites, but I changed my mind and decided to make it a man this time around! I decided on a Bumblebee-avatar after I named myself, which is why I'm also saving up for a name change in addition to clothes.

Q: Are you a psycho?

A: Define "psycho".

Q: What is your favourite ice cream flavor?

A: Cookies and cream!

Q: These questions seem kinda pointless, would anyone ask you most of these?

A: Probably not, but it doesn't hurt to type them out anyway! I'm bored!

~ If you have your own question, just post it in the thread. :boogie: ~

Not currently questing anything! I'll update this soon.

(this will be updated every 20g or so... probably just when I feel I've earned a substantial amount! Besides, you can always look beneath my avatar, that's way more accurate!)

No, you didn't. ^_^ I'm done reserving posts, I'm just editing them now.

Thank you for coming by. I notice that you have a quest, too. :3 Good luck with it!

I can understand why. I forgot how hard it is to start with nothing until I join a new site.

Aww, it's so cute. :3 I love designing outfits. I'd rather be naked than be stuck wearing items that didn't match but were the only things I could afford.

I hope you get it soon. <3 Best of luck to you.

Do you post more or play games more often to earn gold?

Post more.

I'm trying to post in as many topics as I can, and then I go back and see if anyone else posted after me. No luck so far, really. xD

Okay, made quite a bit of gold from playing games. I'm gonna see Tetris blocks in my sleep at this rate!

Guess I should get to work on opening an art shop, otherwise this will take a really, REALLY long time. xD

Thanks to both of you. And sorry for double-posting, Gaia habits keep creeping up on me.

Hey, good luck on your quest! :D

As for your question about posting code for linking your thread, you can use [noparse][/noparse] tags to cancel out any BBcode that might show.

Just place them around the text to turn this:

into this:

You also can just add [html][/html] tags as well, which looks like this instead:

Hello again! I see your quest :sneaky: Good luck Bumble-Bee!

Awww, thank you so much, guys. That was really bugging me, I was like, "what, why isn't the code tag working?!" Yay.
