The CHU Newb Adoption Agency
The CHU Newb Adoption Agency (NAA) is based around making a parent - child like relationship between new members and experienced members in order to help new members to become familiar with the CHU boards, CHU in general, become a better part of the community and make a quick friend.
If you wish to be adopted by another member please post that you would like to be adopted and/ or please place the following:
What style of games you like to play (RPG, FPS, racing etc): Console(s) you like/ use: Likes: Hates: Any other information:
Once you're successfully adopted you can ask your parent any general questions about CHU you wish, through the PM system. You should also place your parents username in your signature and address book.
The role of the parent: 1: Answer any question your child has about the boards (how to make a link on the boards, how to make a link in a signature, navigating CHU, ranks system etc)
2: Check up on your child occasionally (make sure they don't get in to trouble/ break the rules).
If you would like to be a parent, please say so in this thread.
Note:
If you want to be a parent, you must:
-Have an in depth knowledge of the TOS -Be a responsible forum member -Have experience with the website's features and how to use them -Have basic HTML knowledge -Have an active account for the last 6 months.
This post will be edited to include a running list of all parents and their children, so if you are already actively participating in the Newb Adoption Agency, please post here with your child's name so it can be added to the list.

Define "newb" for me please. Am I in that category?
If it's just for new members in terms of join date then I think I've passed it by now. If it's actual activity then I'm still relatively new (less than a year).
Edit: May as well edit it in just in case.
Genre's: I like everything except Puzzle, Racing, and Sports such as football, baseball, etc. Some exceptions here and there, though. RPG's are my favorite. FPS second. RTS third.
Console(s) you like/ use: I have an Xbox360 that pretty much died of old age. I play games on PC, PSP, and sometimes DS. I play games online on PC and PSP. Also, I am hitting my head against the wall almost every day for not buying a PS3 instead of an Xbox360... how foolish of me.
Hit: Gaming , a few anime's, very wide music taste, FRIENDLY and OPEN people (believe it or not. ).
Miss: Windows (no, not the ones you use to look outside), arrogance (read below ), Spiders. (HATE! NOT FEAR! BELIEVE IT!)
Despises: Bullies. A special category just for me.
Any other information: I have some emotional scars so sometimes my personality can change a bit when I'm having one of my down-days. I am NOT typing this as an excuse!
Oh, btw, I have figured out the secret smileysss~! W00t!

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, I want to help out the new people!
*puts out batch of cookies*
Do the potential parents have to put information about themselves?
I will just in case :3
What style of games you like to play (RPG, FPS, racing etc): Platform and FPS, although there are a couple of games I like in other styles :3 Console(s) you like/ use: PC, PS2, Wii, DS Likes: Chocolate, junk food, a good fan-fic, quad-bikes, cats, sailing, gaming, pretty things :3 Hates: Bullies, trolls, people who swear excessively to such a degree that it's annoying, thunder ;_; Any other information: I. Will. Not. Tolerate. Sexism. I also like to like people and make them laugh :3 *rainbows*
... at night :3

@ Monkey007- a "newb" is any person who is new to the message boards. They're newbies, who aren't yet familiar with the forums.
It doesn't have anything to do with how long your account has been active, it's about how long you yourself have been active.
