Hello my name is Shadly and welcome to my thread.
I know this whole forum is for questions and things, which I always try my best to answer but if you have any questions you can post them here and I will help you to the best of my ability :)
I'm just going to answer a few of the very basic questions here: (will post questions asked on this very thread)
I'm new, what's rescreatu like? What can you do here?
Rescreatu is a virtual pet site full of friendly users. You can collect pets, chat with other players, play games or do quests. There are so many activities for everyone.
I've seen you in the shoutbox, and your name is pink. What does this mean?
I am(was) a helper of rescreatu, here to assist you. There are other staff members too such as SB moderators who are light blue, support which are dark blue, just to name a few. The most important and vital color is red which is the admin of rescreatu. One of the admins is the user Patrick. Sometimes he's orange because he is also a site coder.
How do I get a pet?
There are so many ways to get one! You can hit the blue explore button, choose a planet and explore around until the egg alert pops up. Once it does click the button to place the egg in your hatchery. To reach your hatchery, click the bright orange egg, located above your human avatar (top left corner). It is highly recommended to incubate an egg 100% before hatching, otherwise it may fail.
You can also buy pets from other users, you can check rancher shops by using the creatu search located under the information tab.
The atqueen forest located on Atquati gives you 10 chances a day to find abandoned pets.
How do I make tu?
Making tu as a newb is honestly pretty difficult. Start small; hatches are worth roughly 150k each. If you're a rancher you get 3 hatches a day you can sell. If you use your hatches and hatch something rare, you can sell it. Make art? You can sell that too in the art forums.
There's also mini games, quests, and stocks that you can check out. You can advertise in the shoutbox every 30 minutes.
How do I put a link into the shoutbox?
[url=your link here]
How long does it take for a pet to become a teen? An adult?
Creatu become a teen at 15 days of age, and an adult at 30.
I can't name my creatu. Why?
Names are unique, here at rescreatu! Names can only be given to one pet, so you'll need to think out of the box! A name that is taken, will glow red and say "Unavailable" and it won't let you finish. A free name will glow green, say "Available" and let you name your new pet!
Can you use beans on mutants?
No! Mutants only come in natural, and dye kit colors. You also cannot bean galta or iviks. However, you can bean wyraes!
(but you can use calico beans on galtas/iviks)
Should I be a merchant or a rancher? What's the difference?
Personally, I prefer being a merchant, but I think for a newer user rancher is the way to go! Ranchers get 3 hatches a day, as well as their very own rancher shop to sell the pets they hatch! Merchants, get only one hatch a day, a merchant shop, and a 10% discount in NPC shops. Merchant is a better choice if you know the site, and have some good items to sell!
I don't know what to sell my creatu for! Tell me!
Look to the big blue top bar, and find information. Hover over it, and select "Creatu Search". Fill in the required fields to your creatus specifications, and make sure you search ranchershops. You can view what other people are selling their pets for, but you'll learn as you stay on the site, they aren't always accurate!
I got yelled at by staff, and I don't know why! Now I can't talk in the shout box!
Like many communities, we have rules. You may have been breaking one. Typically the moderators, or light blue users, will warn you before banning you. I suggest you read the rules before using the shoutbox, or SB, here: http://www.rescreatu.com/rules.php
A few simple and key rules I see broken all the time are:
Too many caps
Too much punctuation
Over advertising (Keep in mind, giving things away for free, selling things, and asking if people want to buy/sell a certain pet/item all count as advertising!
Begging
I joined when I was 12, but now I'm 13 and still can't use the blogs/sb.
Send in a support ticket, and our support staff will be able to help you with that. To send a support ticket, click your rmail button. Once in your rmail, look and find the button that says "Send a support ticket". Type your problem, and hit send!
I have a big problem and the support ticket hasn't been answered! Is it because I put the importance at 1, instead of a higher number?
Support staff have stated that importance isn't really looked at, and doesn't really designate how fast they look at it. Support are very busy, and they will get to it as soon as they can.
No one in the shoutbox wants to buy my pet! (or) No one in the shoutbox is paying attention to me! Do they not like me?
The sb moves fast sometimes. If its slow, and you're still going unnoticed, try joining their conversation instead of initiating a new one.
What will my ____ look like when I hatch it? What does a CS pet look like?
To view creatu, go to your hatchery (bright orange egg; top left corner) Then click on Creatu Directory. You will see a list of all our creatu and the planets (or else where) that you can find them. It even lets you see different colors, effects, and mutated creatu!
Which planet should I choose? Do they have perks?
The only planet with a perk currently is Relcore. you can use its fishing hole daily for food for your creatu. But, each planet is an element. Atquati is water, Relcore, is earth, Reiflem is fire, and Scria is air. So maybe that'll help you choose! You can find eggs from all the planets, no matter which you choose.
Is there any other way to feed my pet than one item at a time? Also, will pets die in my Rancher/Showroom?
You have a food pen. It's the big apple icon in the same tool bar as your hatchery. You will see a "Stock Food Pen" Option, which will take you to a log of all your available food items. Select the bubble underneath food, and stock the food you want. Use the drop down arrows to the right to change the amount you're stocking. Pets in your rancher and showroom, don't need to be fed. They also stay the same age.
How do I put pictures on forums? On my profile?
For forums, the easiest option is to copy-paste the image right into the box. However, if that doesn't work, copy the images url, and hover over the picture of the pen and pencil. It'll say "Add Image". Then, paste in your link. To put a picture on your profile, you need to use an html code which you can retrieve from image hosting websites such as photobucket.com or tinypic.com. Or, you can use the
code: < img src="DIRECT URL TO PIC HERE" >
No spaces.
How do you apply for staff?
Unfortunently, we can't tell you. You'll need to find it on your own, as your first task to prove you being ready for a staff position. Make sure to check if we need staff at the moment, because we don't always need more!
I had my pets on my profile and now they're gone? (How to revive dead pets)
When pets die, they are put into the graveyard, located on the planet Reiflem, in Otroe circle.
To revive a pet, you'll need a resurrection potion. Often, you can buy them from merchants, by using the search button up top. Or, you can complete the quest to get one by going to quests in the game section. After you get it, go to your inventory and select it (you'll need to have an active pet). If your pet has its name still (They are lost after 2 weeks in the graveyard, or so I've been told) then select it, and revive it. However, if it's lost it, be sure to visit the graveyard first (if you have multiple dead pets this can be confusing) because your creatu will now be a series of numbers, and will need a new name upon revival. Be sure to feed your pets, or keep your pen stocked.
How much is this item worth?
At the top of every page of Rescreatu, is a search bar. Type in the item you desire to search, and it will automatically search all merchant shop prices, the lowest being the first price you see, and the highest being the last. If you use the drop down option, you can also search Item Galleries, as well as usernames! Another way to check is to hover over Information and select Item Database. Typing in the item here will tell you how much a shop sells it for (if its sold in one), the recent sales, and the average selling point of the item.
How do I get a Wyrae?
First, choose your desired pet. Then obtain a random morphing potion, which you can buy for real money, or from other users. This item will randomly change your pet into another species (not CS) and sometimes, a Wyrae. The selected pet keeps its color and name.
Can we talk about other petsites?
Yes, as long as it's not too frequent. Friendly discussion is definitely permitted, as long as you're not blatantly telling other users to go play it.
Where can I sell creatu eggs? I can't stock them in my Merchant.
If you look under the shops tab, you may notice the option that says egg market. You can view other eggs for sale, as well as list your very own eggs for sale. Try to start them incubating in your hatchery before selling, it's a kind gesture to the user purchasing your eggs.
