I was about to laugh at the first part but then I kept reading and damn, they are right and they should say it.

As an all-in-one tool, no. There are URL/image program hacks, but I thought the dressing room made most of them obsolete? I found an archived form of the page, doesn't seem to be functional obviously, but is that what it looked like when you've been using it frequently? Which feature did/do you need?

Not SMR letting someone parodying the manifesto of a domestic terrorist through. The fact that nobody in the notes know where this is from... zoomer moment.

I could see that coming, gore vs excessive could only ever be evaluated on a case by case basis so it was going to slow things down.

We have updated the Custom Skin & Accents Rules and FAQ page. We have also provided supplemental information explaining some of the changes in a stickied thread in the Skin & Accent forum.

Did anything actually change? I don't see anything new. They just changed the gore rule to "none at all"?
Anyone on the FR Facebook Group? Looks like there's drama about the skin rules there as well
Idk how much this counts as wank but I noticed the G1s I was selling ended up in NormalKitty/SimpIcity's lair a weird amount of times and after I went to check both accounts it's pretty obvious they're multi-ing. NormalKitty has a message in their bio saying that "SimplyNashie" (SimpIcity) uses their devices and is also their only friend. SimpIcity is their main but like...yeah, just wanted to put a caution out there about buying from NormalKitty! Idk what y'all think about it but I think it's kind of douchey to buy up cheap G1s from a side account and then resell them on your main for like 4x the price
Smells like multiaccounting and even if it's not then account sharing is also against the ToS.
I'd have no qualms reporting both for it, Simplicity has been abit of an ass in the past and not over reselling dragons.

Seriously? What a dumb question
lowkey surprised a person who owns Kickstarter stuff would ask this

y'all ever stare at the gened, trained, dressed up dragon you spent a lot of currency on.. only to realize you're not that into it anymore
sorry :(
there's pretty much nothing to say that doesn't sound like an empty platitude, especially not knowing you, but i sincerely hope you get through this

They claim that people are talking shit about them on off-fr sites, i'm just nosey and wanna see where? They even complained about it on Arcane Discord (they're not in arcane tho)

(this is a person who will yell at people on discord for replying to their comments because apparently they hate people talking to them)

Which ones even still exist? That are active, at least. I've seen a lot of g1 imp sellers but unbred active dragons are harder to find
Most of active ones on first 2 pages are unbred

Is it just me or is this raffle shady? First of all, hasn't OreoMilkshake mentioned being in college since way back when the game started? If so, she should have graduated by now. Also the prizes are kind of crummy. It seems like a cheap way to fish for compliments imo

Is this the norm with every new pet site that has exclusive or backer only stuff?
Think that they can throw a quarter of the price of an imp scrolls value these days into another pixel game, in the hopes of getting a scroll?
Funny thing is, some people will happily throw their scroll at you for another going to fail or dying game.

flight rising players have to be the only pet sim players i know that actively try to scalp / squeeze the max value out of another fresh petsite, and not actually play the game, always expecting an imp or something in value. i'm surprised our players haven't been directly banned from cross-site trading with how many times this has happened
Not my post but perfectly encapsulates my feelings:
Damn FR’s really just crumbling into a bigger and bigger shitshow huh.
God I fucking hate this. I wish I knew a better game to be invested in but I don’t and I don’t want to leave because it’s been a part of my life for so long but holy fucking shit the staff is garbage. And there’s no fucking way they’re gonna do shit to improve, is there? Shit’s just gonna get more and more bullshit the longer we go and they're never going to get their shit together.
I’m fucking tired of this. If anyone has any good petsite suggestions (other than dappervolk, that one’s kind of a shitshow too, just less blatantly) I’d love to hear them. I’m currently on ChickenSmoothie but it’s not bringing the same feelings as FR.

i don't feel like FR has changed much over the past so many years. maybe i'm out of the loop or missing some cues, but i am not aware of how the site or staff has gotten worse - what's gotten bad about it? (genuine question! i haven't seen anything going on with staff aside from announcements)
Background:
There's someone looking to sell codes for all 4 KS chests, plus two imp scrolls that are currently codes. MissFemke (MF) made thread a for this person, who had never made an account, to get offers and info on how to go about selling them.
The seller is only interested in Closed Species designs (CS). They are interested in quality and quantity over equivalent monetary value.
Drama:
After a lot of pages and several people sharing their collections... the thread got deleted. Not by MF, by a mod (or more likely staff, since I think they're the only ones who can delete and people often confused the two). According to MF's profile,
They are currently in discussion to try and sort this out.
Rules:
There are two existing rules that have relevance here.
One is no RMT-with-middleman trading, where the example is buying a commission slot specifically to trade the result for FR stuff.
The other is 'no trading for things with RMT value'
The Issue:
The seller wanted premade designs only. The deletion is saying that the kind of art they're after is still worth a concrete USD value even after being created.
If this is upheld... CS trades and sales are far from unknown on FR. Does this mean they will be banned in the future? If dragon art is bought for USD and the dragon is later sold with that art, is that the same thing? If not, why not? What will the seller do with their scrolls and codes if they can't trade for what they want?
Alternatively, staff go 'whoops my bad' and the whole issue poofs lmao.

what's the rule? archive or it didn't happen. this is all unfounded gossip
So I realized I hadn't updated the rules in a bit- I've trimmed them/updated them for folks who haven't been on the site in a while.
Feel free to take a look!

Whats the five and six digit market look like these days?
I'm really not hooked into the low-digit ID community, so I dunno what's happening with auctions and private sales, but my personal experience is that they're both just getting more expensive. I think the cheapest 6-digit on the AH is like 1900g or more.
love it when I take a dragon off the market to set up a PA and the other party doesn't pick it up for several days despite being active elsewhere 🙃
I could've sworn this was polled years ago, but I can't seem to find the results of the flight demographics survey. Does anyone know?
Aren’t you not allowed to poll for age anymore?
Does anyone find it hard to sell old things from from your inventory, especially sprites? Like I have all these sprites I won't ever use and are just taking up space but I feel like it's hard to get rid of them. I guess I'm not really desperate for money either.
for me, personally, I got rid of my hoard of sprites by bribing other people for the nice things I actually want instead of just selling them off for pure.
From Undel: "Wavecrest Saturnalia will begin April 24th at 00:00 (previously 4/24 @ 6:00) and run until May 1st at 6:00 server time. Thank you for your understanding!"
I wonder if this will only be for Wavecrest or for all future festivals/or if this was just a staff thing? I know they originally started doing it at 6:00 server time because it was easier for staff *shrug*

I think the statue is really cute
I also really like the apparel, but to me it kinda feels lackluster for a fest piece - I wish it were part of a set as the extra
inked mantle ugly but I also didn't like the original version either so I'm biased
Does anyone pick up fest skills to resell later? If so how do you go about choosing which ones to get?
Semi-unrelated rant:
I really hate how staff has handled the Tidelord being gone - it's been 3 years? 4? Bringing out a story like this and then just leaving it until you expand on it slightly once a year during the anniversary is just. Bad, I think? It makes everything feel disjointed to me. I feel bad for water who got their deity snatched with no return in sight
