yeah IIRC, Light and Lightning didn't have dom their first year because the "tradition" didn't start until Fire/Arcane holiday, I think?

Ooh, I support this. Seaglass would even be a perfect name for one of them. Translucent for the other?

The new familiars are adorable, and it's cool that there are some mixed old/new packs.

But what I love most is we got a scene before any background art update. That way if an update ever does happen, there will be two scene options. (Always going to be a little sad that there will never be Old Mire or Old Boreal Woods scenes - not because the new art is bad, but some dragons would just mesh better with the old, and variety is great!)

No. Lightning had theirs year one. Light was the only flight that lost theirs.

This lol. I was called a "Plague Loudmouth" by someone in Ice back in 2015, and there are STILL folks who call me that who know me/remember the incident.

Lightning got theirs, but Ice threatened to take it away and then "graciously" decided to 'give it back' to them to "ensure their revelry"

I once took a hiatus that lasted for nearly a year and I didn't think much about being done with the site for good. One night, I somehow ended up having a dream that my FR account was hacked and it spooked me enough that I went back to the site and logged in as soon as I woke up to make sure everything was okay, and that led to me idly clicking around the site looking at new stuff. One of those things was Dustcarve Dig, and I did a few interactive clicks to get the day's reward not very long before it was closed up (I had no idea it was a finite thing bc I didn't read the front page). Obelisks dropped that day and apparently my last minute contribution to Dustcarve gave me credit for the G1 Obe statue. Thanks, subconscious, except I've been invested in FR again since then.

I have more than 50 people blocked bc they're AH spammers, accent resellers, or they're obnoxious in the forums (rude, tiny/pastel text, etc)

And I'm an average FR user, not a well known accent maker, so like... idk, i see nothing wrong here.

Funny at folks mentioning they're blocked, but /shrug.

Being a G1 imp is the only thing notable about whatever the creature covered under all that crap is. Thread is very funny, got a chuckle out of me.

The dragon only has a handful of apparel items, so you're basically insulting the accent, and that's uncalled for.

I kinda agree? I saw it was an XYY and hoped it would be gened to complement it, but removing that skin makes it rather… underwhelming. I wish they used their own skin on that imp, would’ve looked far better :/

Seeing as Ado just got the dragon, they're probably making a custom- I have a XXX G1 that doesn't have an accent rn because I'm working on a custom for it.

(And we all know accents take 1-2 weeks to get approved)

Free stuff.

Realized it was summer and I probably oughta come back to FR to start liquidating my annual egg hoard, and I have a lot of one-or-two-piece junk items that's keeping my apparel hoard from being a nice, neat, single page. I'll probably be sending 3-5 items to the first 5-8 people to submit this form, depending on how many items it takes to clear it down to one page. I make no promises on value of items, though it's not (to my knowledge) literal baldwin-fodder apparel. [Disclaimer: I think some of this stuff is just "stuff that got added to my hoard for my account existing" so I have no idea the value on those couple items nor can I bothered to check since it's still free stuff either way.]

(That *should* just ask for UID and be submittable without logging in or needing an email but let me know if not. The idea was just so that people didn't have to publicly post their UIDs/de-anon.)

This lasts until my hoard is a single page, at which point I'll close the form so you can tell stuff is no longer being given away. (And HOPEFULLY remember to post here also, but no promises. Lack of spoons lately and all that.)

OP

AR/ARR and dom were my primary sources of enjoyment when I played, so it only makes sense that if I'm giving away stuff, I give it away here. I assume it's not all the same people as when I played, but hey, still counts in spirit. Thanks to everyone who kept FR interesting for me long after I would have otherwise given it up.

someone made a non-scraping skin tool and it was approved by staff, meaning you can link it on the site!
