New Member Guide
If you're a new member to The Coffee House, this short guide will help you get settled in within the guild.
- Double check your font Double check your font to make sure it is legible and has your name in it (or make sure your lookup has your name). If your font is too light, you will be asked to change it to a darker color. We all want to read what you have to say, so please be considerate of others!
- Introduce yourself We all love to meet our new members, even for just a few minutes. So please try to introduce yourself once you join. Many of us have our name somewhere on our signature. We recommend you put your name in your signature too, but it is not required.
- Enable guild mailers Please make sure that the box next to guild mailings is checked off so that you can receive any mass neomails we send to the guild. You can find that here.
- Check out what we offer Go on over to our portal to check out all the other neat features we offer to guild members!
Remember, if you have any questions, comments or concerns then feel free to neomail any of the staff members.

News
Have you been gone for bit too long and want to know what major things are going on around the guild? This page will hold news for one entire month!
January 3, 2013
Revamp underway! The revamp is back on now that the holidays are over. Hopefully everything will be up and running smoothly soon!
Rank changes Ranks have been altered as part of our revamp. The post count requirement is lower, as is the trophies requirement. Please take a look at the ranks to see them.
Less trophies We will no longer hand out multiple trophies for guild events. The Candy Cane Lane event is the last event we will do that for. Future events will only award one event trophy. We have also removed the trophies that showcase the time you have been in the guild for.

About the Staff
_roseate ★ Val
Hi there! I'm Val. I'm 21 years old, a university student addicted to caffeine and a procrastinator at heart. I'm majoring in Criminal Justice and minoring in Sociology with the Law & Society option in hopes of going to law school. On Neopets I enjoy collecting avatars, chatting with my neofriends and guildies, earning neopoints and creating graphics. Off in the real world I love reading, gardening, arts and crafts, playing with my dogs, watching crime shows, bugging Jordan, and hanging out with my friends. If you have any questions about anything, please shoot me a neomail. If my inbox is full, just send me a junk item. :)
ilovegnomes ★ Christina
Hello, my name is Christina and I'm a 24 year old recent graduate residing in southern California. I just finished my Masters in chemical engineering in May 2011 and I'm currently looking for a job where I can apply what I spent the last 5 years learning. I have a non-engineering job that I have had a love / hate relationship with for the last 4 years. It's quite unique but I love my co-workers - they've become like a second family. When I'm not working, I enjoy paddling canoes, hanging out with my friends, and reading. I also have atrocious taste in TV shows. If there is a reality show on TV, I've probably watched it at least once and most likely enjoyed it. My favorite non-reality TV shows include Grey's Anatomy, Pretty Little Liars, and the Big Bang Theory. On NeoPets, I spend most of my time hanging out at TCH, playing Plushie Tycoon, and working on my gallery. My ultimate dream is to get an UC MSPP but I would be quite happy with a converted one.
deathbykarma ★ Holly
Hello! My name is Holly, I am 20 and live about an hour outside of Toronto, Ontario_ Canada, eh). I watch hockey, drink tea, read books, and enjoy sleeping. I am half French Canadian. My favourite band is The Beatles, though I also enjoy various other artists such as The Tragically Hip, Death Cab For Cutie, Bright Eyes, Arctic Monkeys, and Modest Mouse. I have a brown tabby cat named Bean; I love him more than I like most people. I think the human mind is extraordinary. love incense, and remember an abnormal amount of my dreams. I have never been outside of North America. I think that Disney World truly is the happiest place on Earth and am hoping to work there as a cultural representative in the year 2013. My favourite television programme is Pushing Daisies (closely followed by Skins and Doctor Who). And I love going up North, into the country, on clear evenings because I am endlessly fascinated by the night sky.
prettyinspirations ★ Caissie
Hello there! My name is Caissie. I'm a nineteen year old college student, currently in my first year of study, with a strong ambition to work in the theatre industry. My passion and appreciation for theatre - in particular musicals - began at a young age and I have never looked back! When I'm not attending classes, I enjoy reading, hanging out with my friends and baking.
beverly_ ★ Bevi
My name is Bevi, I live in sunny southern California, I am a student at a local community college, and I enjoy coming onto Neopets to socialize, play games, and relax. Offline I mostly play board and card games (including Magic the Gathering, Clue, Life, Fluxx, and many others), sing, cook (or try to) and do other related activities with my family (parents and sister) as well as my sister's friend (who lives with us) and my boyfriend (who may as well live with us)...I also enjoy eating Girl Scout cookies and watching British television shows. c:
pepper_imp ★ Velvet
Hey! I'm Velvet, 20 year old student of History & English at university in Scotland. When I'm not studying I work in a chocolate shop, and in my free time I hang out with people I probably don't like nearly as much as my Neofriends and do nerdy things like play Scrabble and train my Pokemon. I have a large collection of books, teas and shoes and most people agree that I am the easiest person to buy presents for in the world due to my vast number of obsessions (and possibly my general excitability towards anything pretty). I frequent Hogwarts, Middle Earth and anywhere I can go questing for dragons on a regular basis and I would marry DCI Gene Hunt in a heartbeat if it wasn't for the fact I am already married to the wonderful Holly.
