I know, I'm greedy, but...

How do you get badges? I just started and I want badges so I can be recognized! Also, what can you do on this site other than join clubs, storybooks, read other peoples books, and have debates with people? Wow. That was a lot. I guess there is a lot of stuff you can do on this site!

Badges are like trophies; you get them from doing good things. There are the Storybooker badge, Reviewer 1 and 2, Greeter, and 1001 posts.

Other people nominate you for the badges, you have to do the stuff that gets you them! go to community on the top screen, nominations, and that will explain how to do the stuff to get you nominated.

Thanks Funkymomo!

Welcome welcome!

Hello!

My name is Taylor and I'm now your official best friend/guide of this site! Hooray! Hoorah!

First of all, YWS is this (magical) place where you can just be yourself, post your works, chat with awesome people all around the world, make tons of friends, and grow as a reader/writer. Sounds cheesy, I know, but I think you'll love it here!

If you need any help AT ALL about YWS or really anything, or if you just want to chat, feel free to PM me or write on my wall. (Done by clicking on my name, "Ilovebubbles123", and either writing in the box that appears in the middle of my page or clicking the "Send private message" link in blue under my picture)

You don't HAVE to post stories and work here, but that's really what the site's for and everyone here loves everyone else's work, so why not? To post work, click on the 'submit' button and follow the directions.

If I'm not online or for any other reason, make sure to go to the YWS chat... which is basically chatting live with YWS'ers around the world. To get there, go to the YWS homepage and scroll down until you see the "Enter YWS chat room" button and click on that). One...warning... YWS'ers are very enthusiastic about new members. When you go into chat and say you're new, you will either be greeted by a dead chat (happens occasionally) or a billion people pouncing over each other to meet you.

(Another note- YWS'ers are extriemely sarcastic and we often talk about hurting each other in good fun. Just roll with it XD)

If you have any other questions, feel free to PM me or write on the wall!

Taylor

See you around!

(PS you aren't greedy... I want one too )
