Newbie Over Here!!

Hiya!
As the title suggests I'm a newbie.
I'm hoping to get stuck into the Forums pretty quickly.

I guess I should really tell you a bit about myself.
My real name actually is Toya Kazaki, I know my username is beyond unimaginative but I can never be bothered enough to see what usernames are available.
I'm 17 and I go to college.
I'm half Japanese and half English.
I live in the good old UK, where the sky is constantly grey and we love drinking tea, though personally I prefer drinking coffee.
I'm a real movie buff, I mainly watch horrors, though I do watch actions more than often but horrors will always top them.
I love to listen to music, my music varies really, though I would say that I mainly listen to RnB but it all depends on my mood and how I'm feeling at that point in time.
(Right now I'm listening to Bleed (I Must Be Dreaming) by Evanescence.)
I love animals, we have 5 cats and I love them all dearly, I know its bad to say but I do have a favourite among them and that's my baby Shadow, he is just so cute, I will admit I spoil him rotten but I just can't help it, hes just so cute!

Well that's it I think!

Too-da-loos!

Hello and welcome to egg cave! I wouldn't be much help at this time since I basically new to the site myself but I answer questions to the best of my abilities. 😊 Feel free to PM if you have any questions.

Welcome to EggCave @toyakazaki ~
If you need help feel free to ask because nearly everyone here will he happy to help! You can ping people by writing @ in front of their username and that person will receive a notification saying that you have pinged them on a topic. Why don't you try pinging me?

Other ways of communicating is on a person's wall, you cannot ping on a wall. The Wall is located on the person's profile and if someone writes on your wall you reply to them on THEIR wall, not yours. This is a common mistake seen XD

Another common mistake is seeing players not feeding their own creatures, you CAN feed your own creatures!

Creatures gain levels by gaining feeds, clicks and views. You will notice that even if you have clicked and fed a creature, the level won't increase straight away. This is because levels and views only update once a day, around 3am ECT

Hide your EC (EggCoins) that you get from feeding your pets and other's everyday in your Strongroom and gather the interest every day.
When unable to go on EggCave for a while leave your pets at Tim's Food Shoppe and keep an eye on the Laws of Ark (site guidelines).

To gain some friends take a look at the forum. But make sure you do not revive a 'dead' topic. A topic that has not been active for quite a number of months! There are many threads that are active and many are always happy to chat to new players!

Cave Monthlies are creatures that are only going to be obtainable for this current month, take a look at recent blog posts to see which critters are the current monthlies.

A note, please be careful with trading, many will try to get a better deal out of a newer player just because you are new. Before trading for creatures, please do a little research first!

Messages that only have a smiley/emote (whatever you call them where you live) are considered spam and are not allowed

Some common things you will see
CC-Cave Cash
UFT- up for trade
TUFT- Tentative up for trade
UFA- up for auction
EC- EggCoins or sometimes EggCave

I hope you have fun 😃
