Hello and I am new as of 4/16/2017. I would like to get a mentor if possible, and my user name is kithri. I don't really care about the specific mentor, but I would like someone that has been on a while and knows lots about the different breeds, breeding, and some various other questions. I also need someone willing to take on a challenge as I think I am the first blind player to play this game even though it does say there's a large player base. For example, I might want to know what a certain breed looks like and that means describing in text as pics I can't see, or something else that might need a more detailed description.

Just to let all know, I am a knowledgeable computer user and use a "screen reader" that reads aloud all text on screen so I can tell the mutations and such on the pets and genders and such.

I have completed the basic tutorial and gotten my starter pet to lvl 8 and managed to equip it with new stuff and am ready to proceed to fight the troll thing.

If anyone is interested in taking on this challenge, answering some questions and just basically helping out, please ping me or message me. I haven't quite figured out the game time, but in RL I am central time zone US if that helps at all for anyone, but that really doesn't matter much as long as we can connect somehow.

Thanks to all for reading.

I've been somewhat inactive, but if you shoot me a PM I'll be happy to answer any questions! I have already mentored several newbies and know how to explain things. It is also helpful to look through some of the player guides.

Would you be interested in taking on a new player, joined 4/16/2017, lvl 8?

Sure!
Here's the first lesson. If you want someone in particular to notice your forum post you should ping them. There are two ways to do this. The first way is to click the blue @ button at the bottom of their post. That will automatically bring you to the page where you type your reply. The second way is to type in their username (make sure to spell everything correctly) in the box above the blue icons on the page where you type. It is right below Ping Users. If you want to ping several people at once then separate all usernames with a comma and a space.

Is it better to go through here or messaging for questions? And are advance points actually good for anything?

Yep! I can take you in.
(lol so now you have 2 helpers xD)

messaging should be better. we don't wanna clog up space lol
advance points can buy you a new 'wardrobe set' thing. it can also help you purchase specific items in the wardrobe, like eyes and mouths.

and if you get 10k advancement points(you don't have to save them tho), you can hire a stablehand to auto feed your pets. the feeding costs less.

How do you buy pets from people? Like how do you make the trade to offer for there pets or stuff? I'm very new sorry lol.

It depend, there is a lot of pets of any kind already set with a sale price and you can found them in the advenced shearch, there is also the pet auctions forum but if you want a special gene or mutation the best is still the advenced shearch.

Tho if you want to buy a perticular pet from a player you can message them to ask directely about it.

I can help you searching if you nead some help with that. ( and now you have three people helping you lol )

I think Cian covered it, my preferred place is the Advanced Search, But being you asked I have a few pets for sale pretty cheep right now, the ones with the greenish coloring have higher stats ^-^ and most are around 10g, but feel free to look through my stables and hatchery and buy what ya want, these are just a preview.
