I have a suggestion for the FAQ, if no one will mind

Maybe you can add a "How to Post Things" section in the FAQ?
This is because I spent days on end figuring out how to post things. I ended up going to my friend for help. We shouted, threatened, and fought with each other until they managed to finally get it through my thick skull.
Anyway, that's besides the point. I don't know 100% if you have added that area in the FAQ, but (being a noobie myself) I think it would be easier for the new users to figure how to make gold quickly by posting things. However, they can't do that if they don't know how to post things!

I'm mostly trying to make this post really long so I can buy an Arkenian Kitsune, so sorry if you're not going to read all of this. I'm starting to get off topic because I just really want gold to buy this creature, so just ignore this bit if you haven't already. I'm obsessed with this site, so don't mind me. Just trying to get it a special creature that I like :lol:

Help me I don't have a life, but that's okay if magical creatures are involved.

Overall, your FAQ helped me out a lot! Despite not knowing how to post things, but you worked hard on this FAQ! I'm glad you made it for us! THANK YOU :hooray:

If you already have 4 eggs, then you can't get anything from the Koi Pond. You get this message instead when trying to throw gold in the Koi Pond: "You cannot take care of more than 4 eggs at a time." I just tried. :yarly:

I assume by posting things you mean posting eggs/hatchlings.
In which case, it does have it-
How do I hatch my eggs?
To hatch an egg, it needs to be clicked by people. The more people click your eggs, the faster they will hatch. In order for that, you need to make clickable links of your creatures available. Go to your keep and click the 'embed' link next to one of your eggs. Copy the BBCode provided. You can also click the 'embed multiple' button in the upper right corner of your keep to embed several creatures at once.
Afterward, put the codes into your signature. To do that, go to 'User Control Panel' -> 'Profile' -> 'Edit Signature' and paste them into the box provided. Don't forget to click 'Submit' or it won't save the changes you made.
Just swap out 'signature' for 'forum'.

Otherwise, I don't think there needs to be a 'this is how you post' when the button is literally labelled as 'Post Reply' (or 'quick reply' if you don't want to bother with formatting options) which then gives you a 'submit' option at the end of your post.

However, I do think the FAQ needs to be updated because under 'What is gold and how do I get it?' it still says that gold from posting caps at 60.
It caps at 200 now.

So when you buy a frozen egg from someone else it stays that way?

I sometimes gift people who where the last to click an egg or a hatchling of mine before it finally grew!
So please click my eggs <3

Sorry if this is a silly question, but I can't seem to find the release button. Do you have to have your pet for a certain amount of time for it to show up, or am I just being dumb?

The release button appears after 6 hours I believe, but you can also just freeze an egg you don't want without the wait time :3

I'm asking out of pure curiosity (and maybe cuz I'm stupid too haha).

What happens to your creatures when you get banned? Do they all just go "poof"?

The creatures from banned accounts are eventually gathered by Master Belmos who then sells them to other players. So they don't vanish. ^_^
