@annawesome318 - Welcome to Egg Cave! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

Checking out the Forum Rules and the Site Guidelines would be an easy way to start. These explain what is and what isn't acceptable regarding the site itself and the forums. A couple of other useful links are the Player Guide (a helpful list of commonly asked questions) and the eCode guide (the code tags used around the site, such as the tags I'm using to make this appear in italics. Just a little tip, but EC doesn't seem to currently support BBCode or HTML tags, so posting your creatures onto these forums using the codes provided for them will not work.).

If you are replying to someone, you should ping them. Otherwise, they won't be notified of your reply and therefore be unaware that you've done so. To ping someone, simply type an @ followed by their username (e.g. @sparklefox ). You can also click the left-pointing orange arrow in the grey box below a forum post.

A common mistake from newbies is that they'll ping and reply to people who have commented on their wall using their own wall. Pinging does not work out of forums and the blog, and to reply to the comments made on your wall, you go to the user's wall instead. That way, they will be notified about your reply.

Egg Coins (EC) is the main currency of this site, and is used to purchase most of the things available on the site - such as items and travels for your creatures. These are mainly gained through feeding eggs / creatures. Cave Cash (CC) is another currency and is used in the Cash Shop Park. This is purchased through real life money and can be spent on many exclusive items and creatures only available here. Exchange Credits (XC) is for use in the Click Exchange - found by clicking on the XC amount in the sidebar. These are gained through clicking the creatures in the Click Exchange, and every click on any creature(s) you have in here uses one of your XC. If you have none left, then your creature(s) won't appear in the Click Exchange until you gain more (and yes, getting a minus amount is completely normal and happens when people click fast enough on your creature(s)).

This post here explains many different abbreviations which are commonly used around this site. It would be helpful to read through it, in my opinion.

Any creature which has reached level 2,000 or over is considered immortal and so cannot die. To evolve your creatures, you need to reach the right amount of stats for that creature's species (200 feeds, 1,000 views, etc.). You can find this out via looking up the species in The Archives, available under the Explore tab above.

I apologise if you knew any of the above information already.

Is that a Shadow the Hedgehog reference in the title? >u>
This is perhaps the single greatest newbie post I've ever read.

Anyway, have a great day, and a nice time here!

*bows down* I promise I won’t oppose you 😋

Hi!!! Welcome to Egg Cave!

One thing that you probably need to know that when someone posts on your wall (on your profile page), you need to post on theirs back. Pinging doesn’t work.

Oh, and by the way, pinging is putting an @ in front of their username like @iris1929578 or @insert_username_here. It gives a notification to the person you’re pinging.

EC, XC and CC is the currency used in Egg Cave. EC is free, and you get it from feeding creatures. CC costs real money, and is used to trade off really valuable creatures, such as, for example, a Yuki or a Nym. 500,000 EC, right now, is the equivalent to 50 CC. XC is obtained in the Click Exchange when you click a creature. When you click a creature, your XC balance goes up, and theirs goes down. When someone clicks your creature(s), your balance goes down and yours up.

There are four types of creature availabilities: available, seasonal, endangered, and retired. Available means it can be obtained in the cave or in the Cash Shop Park (CSP). Seasonal means it can be obtained at a certain time. Endangered means it used to be a available, but now it can only be found in the Oasis. Retired means it’s gone. Done. These are usually the creatures that sell for the highest price.

Oh, and by the way, commons are Cave Commons, which can be found at the cave at any time. Monthlies are creatures that are only available at a certain month, and then it retires. Creature Release Week (CRW) is a certain week that special creatures can be obtained for only a week. And there are more, too! There are events and other stuff.

If there is anything else you want to know, just ask me! I’m nice, love getting bugged, and I don’t bite. You’ll find lots of other users that are like me too. Welcome to EC!
