I have had a LOT of newbies asking me if I can clam gram them. Sometimes I give in, but mostly I don't. Newbies should understand that other people are asking around for clams too, maybe that same person! Still, I understand that newbies NEED clams. Here are some tips for everybody....

1. If a newbie is bugging you, don't say NO!!! or something like that. They don't know that you actually don't have any. Sometimes you'll hurt their feelings. Instead of being mean, say something nice like: "No. Sorry!" If you are mean, than it is most likely that they will keep on asking/begging you.
2. I think that City Hall should start out any newbie with like, 30 clams. Newbies will actually have a face and smileys won't be running around everywhere.
3. This tip is for newbies: I give away 28 clams everyday for the 1st person who asks me. So if you see me around, ask, ask, and ASK!
