Thanks, I think I'll do that! I think its been over a week and I haven't yet got any replies, so this might be a more effective method. Cheers![]()
I just browsed this forum and saw a lot of people posting to be adopted but with no replies.. well my suggestion is to go around the forums and the sticky thread at the top of this forum and see if anyone appeals to you, then PM that person and ask if they are currently adopting. This is in addition to your regular posts of course... I think that some people's get bumped down a bit too soon and may be overlooked by prospective 'parents'!![]()

That about sums it up!
Adopted by GestaltAlteration
Thanks, MesPeople get a lot further in the adoption process when they are proactive about it, and not just sit back and wait from someone to come to them. Approaching people to ask if they are currently adopting also gives the impression that the person is serious about being adopted and it isn't just the Idea of the Day.
cheezopath, yeah I definitely think it will!Good luck!
Burns, that's exactly right, it does give the impression of being serious, which is what every adopter is looking for.
im way too timid when it comes to this stuff to ASK someone to help me... hoping the right person(s) will see my post and decide i'm right for them... those who beg cannot also choose.. they must be chosen... and so i wait.. (for my post to be approved and for a reply)

Consider your post approved
And should you have any questions in particular feel free to start with any of the staff members for help - we're here to help and wouldn't be on staff if otherwise.
The best thing you could do is use this forum to break out of that timidness - we got a great community here and once you feel comfortable you're likely to find a whole group of folks to get good advice from.
Good luck and looking forward to hearing from you!![]()
everybody here seems awesome.. it's not a timidity like "i'm afraid to ask questions" more of like "i know this question has been asked and i dont think anyone would appreciate me posting a page and a half worth of specifics to see if they migt know something that fits me better than someone else"
it's all about one-on-one... when a commitment exists, things go smoother no matter who is involved of what the situation is. i will deffinitely not leave the forums any time soon though...
