yes im new to this and i want to know how to get around, like getting gold and stuff, is it just like GaiaOnline and Zantarni? post stuff like talking in forums for gold or is there another way to get gold also?

Welcome to Mene.

Yes you make gold by posting around and playing games.
You can also offer services such as art or become an exchanger.

More ways can be learned here:

Gold Earning Guide

And another useful thread for you to take a peek at:

Newbie Starter Guide

Both of which could have been found in the Fresh Meat forum however. ^^
