Why did I get a llama from you?

I give almost all the people I come across llamas. Everyone in my inbox gets a llama.

I use a llama giving program that generates random deviants. It gives llamas to people who've given more llamas than received.

What's a llama badge?

Please read Improved Llama Badge FAQ

What about those other badges on your profile?

Sometimes the deviantART staff will release new badges for a limited time. Those badges are pretty special and rare. You can only receive those once and you can't trade them like llamas.

Why do you give llamas?

To get visitors that way I can help fellow llama traders.

To make more friends. Feel free to note me!

To achieve my goal of getting 100,000 badges.

To share the pointless fun called "llama love".

I don't expect llamas in return, but I do highly appreciate it.

Don't like your llama?

Please don't stir an argument with me.



I'm terribly sorry if you don't like your llama. I can't check people's profiles when giving llamas because it is completely unrealistic from a practical and timely standpoint.

Llamas aren't necessarily something you deserve, but they can be. More so llamas are something you earn by trading.

I hope you respect the fact that this a hobby of mine and the methods I use.
