I play this one site called vmons

and they are holding this contest for a pet to get ‘likes’

I would be very grateful if you could “like” my pet.

Just press like and that’s it. 🙂  
I really appreciate it, I’m currently in 2nd place (tied with another user) and I need around… 23 more ‘likes’ to be in first place.

I hope this is where this kind of thread belongs…

Also, if you’re going to report me, just do it. Don’t go post on my thread alright, that’s petty. Way to offer a warm welcome.

Closing this.

**Kirel** , joining a message board to post self-serving links is what’s generally known as “spamming.” This is not welcome.
