Alright guys and gals, I think it's past time I posted this. Not trying to be mean, but I'm going to say this once more, and then if folks don't pay attention, it's going to be official CDF policy to simply ignore notes, emails, comments that do not follow this rule. Because quite frankly, neither Zia nor I should have to answer the same questions again and again. So....

If you have a question, check the FAQ and wiki info FIRST! More often than not, you will find the answer you are looking for there. If not, ask around the boards. Your fellow handlers may know the info, particularly if they are experienced handler. Heck, they might have already asked that question at one time or another!
If someone asks a question that is readily available on the wiki or in the FAQ, from this point on we will NOT answer. I'm truly sorry to sound harsh, but frankly, if you can't be bothered to look for the answer on the awesome wiki site Arazia made and maintains for everyone (in her own time, just because she's amazing!) then we can't be bothered to take the time to redirect you to that information.

Along those same lines, neither myself nor Zia can set aside/save/hold you a Wyrm or Wyrms, whether its from a online egg clutch, or at a convention. It simply wouldn't be fair to everyone else. Please don't ask. Wyrms are, and will remain, first come, first serve. There is no favoritism shown, no "this person is my friend and so I'll bend the rules for them", nada. The ONLY exception to this is Arazia herself. YES, she gets dibs on certain things, and often gets first crack at new breeds/traits/etc. This is because she is doing all the work maintaining the wikis, registry, coloring the info cards, and often being the online presence during breeding season or when clutches are posted. And she's doing this WITHOUT getting paid! So in appreciation, I offer her first crack at some stuff. Anyone who has any issue with this, or any complaint, is free to email me directly and discuss their complaints with me personally. :[ (gives stern, no bullspit "Mom" look)

I think that is perfectly fair, especially concerning Arazia. I'll try and djrect people if they are looking for a question that is in the wiki.

Just to clarify, though. We know everyone was new once, and that you guys have a lot of questions. That's what the wiki, forums, and guides are for. We want to help you out, and we don't want you to be afraid of asking questions. However, we've run into a couple of circumstances where a person will ask the same question, over and over again, across multiple places, and the answer doesn't change. So, if we take the time out to answer something for you, or point you at the wiki or the guides, please do us a favor and read them over. One of the hardest things is to point someone at the FAQ, only to have them ask another question that was answered right there on the same page they claim they just read.

I agree with Fishy, this sounds fair. Both with the questioning and with Arazia!

Keep up the good job!
