Help with castle age monster...

Where in this insane mess do I go to post "help with a monster" in the Castle Age and what information do I need to put in the post? Help!

From the main page you will notice that it is broken up into 3 Sections:

You want the middle section which is called [ Valerian Town Square ]

This is the part of the community that contains the 'MEAT' of CA tips, instructions, strategies, and also a place to post any monster that you summoned or someone else summoned.

Within this area you should see a message board that is called [ Help with Monsters/Battles ].
There is also a picture of the 'Call To Arms' button there.

Within this place are seperate 'messages' based on each type of monster.
You will see messages such as [ Official CRONUS THE WORLD HYDRA Help Thread ].

You would then go into that message if you wanted to post a Hydra. Once in that spot you click 'Post Reply' and within your message you put the link to the monster.

where do I find the 'long' link for my particular monster?

First thing you need to do is find out what your MSID# is. You can have someone else look you up in a monster battle and tell you this number if you have a hard time finding it. After that you probably need to learn how to MAKE a long link. I would suggest going to the Valerian Army and reading the thread 'http://valerianknight.narutorpg.org/t123-msca-link-templates?sid=ee924b4b7cf5297b275725b3f80b386a'. This will show you how to cut/paste together a long link and shows you where you need to add your ID# as the summoner. If you are having a problem understanding how to create a long link after reading up on the MSCA Templates then catch me in chat on MIBBIT. You can come into chat from the main screen in the forums. Once you come in there find me and I will help you learn how to create a link for your monster.
