I don't want to be a sore looser, but I can't believe Nature lost dominance. We were in the lead almost all week. We stayed in first the entire time the last two days. Until the last TWO MINUTES. When they pulled ahead and won. Because they had more 25s saved up. And it's just... so hard to even put any effort in nature's pushes anymore when all we do is loose, even when we worked our asses off and were almost guaranteed a win. So many people wasted so much time and money.

I wasn't that sad and pissed when we lost against Light, because they are the dom powerhouse right now and we were flipping with them on the dom board for hours, up until the end. But this? This is just plain sneaky. I just.. can't.

We had this planned since our fight against Light. We wanted dominance for Earth day. We wanted just ONE win aside from the dominance handed to us for our festival.

Going to go curl up and die somewhere.

Why does this #@&$ing dragon pet site do this shit to me.

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that Lupen. :( I've never really followed any of the dominance or flight stuff on the site so I'm completely oblivious about that aspect of the community, but that sounds really frustrating after working so hard. :hug:

Urg, some loser is going around the FR Facebook groups and trying to get people to send CRs to a user that isn't them simply to harass them. I fell for it this morning and the user sent me a PM explaining that this keeps happening to them and someone is going out of their way simply to harass them by sending them as many dragon trade requests and adding them to as many ping lists as they can. What a really immature and bizarre way to harass someone. Luckily, they were immediately banned from the group I use when I called them out, but they'll likely still be about. :/

Lupen202: ... Ok, now I'm really confused, because Lightning won. Not Light. Lightning isn't even that much of a Dom powerhouse. Light is. :?:

Snowy: I heard about that in the G.A.S.P. accent alert thread. They'd banned someone for adding someone else to a bunch of ping lists. Ugh. Must be the same person. I really feel for the one being bullied. Some people really are giant jerks. :(

STILL waiting for someone to accept a CR I sent a quite a few days ago. *plays some Jeopardy theme music*

Yeah, it was a bummer. :( I even exalted a few. I adore nature, but dang.

I think she was referring to a Nature/Light dominance battle from before - that she wasn't upset that Light had won cos it was tight the whole way through, whereas this time Lightning waited until the last few minutes to unleash the big guns dragons after Nature had held first place all week.

Varethyn: Ah! That would make more sense. I just wasn't paying attention to the dominance battle this week and was like ''Wha..?" Was Earth, Light, and Lightning all duking it out? She said Earth Day, so I assumed she meant the one ending last night, as Earth Day is the 22nd of April? ;) But then again, Light and Lightning seem to get confused an awful lot. So there is that too. :lol: Either way, sorry for your loss Lupen! <3

Also: When the heck did they change the rule that dragon names have to be longer than two characters!?! A family member has a 'panda' dragon they named Po and went to change it to Ji, and got this message: "Names must be longer than 2 characters." O.o

Ashaine - Yup last week's fight was between Nature and Lightning cos Nature wanted dom for said Earth Day.
Huh, I'd thought that rule had always been in. Wonder if they changed it when they realised "alphanumeric" wasn't the correct term.

---
A while back someone had asked me to breed Varenaxx, my progen (who is STILL around xD), with a female imp of similar colour as their friend was after a specific combo (goldenrod/rust/stonewash) to turn into a coatl. I'd gotten lucky as one of the first three kids had that combo so she was sent off and everyone was happy. But when I went to check on her recently to see how she was doing... she was exalted. And still a tundra. I'm not mad, just confused :|

Been like that for awhile. I have a Ji myself but he's JiFirepaw cause it wouldn't take Ji.

They could've gotten fed-up/bored with the project? That's how it was with my last dragon project, and I ended up exalting the parents because despite having all the genes and breed scroll (which they mighta not) I just didn't want to put up with the possible RNG doing dumb things and making me wait for the dragon to be born. /shrugs

I may have ranted this before, but one thing that really trips my trigger is this...

When I can tell that a person has been online, fed their dragons, posted on the FR forums, and has obviously decided to be a complete and total ****** and ignore my polite inquiry. Several weeks and still no response. WTF. You know what, if someone takes the time to send you an email at least have the common decency to respond. -.-

EDIT: Got this response today from someone I've been waiting for a reply from: "I'm sorry. In my clan, if it has a name, it's not for sale." Well, when your hatchling is 5 days old and named but without a familiar, pardon me if I don't instantly realize you plan to keep it. A lot of people name their hatchlings around that age in preparation to level and exalt. I also really don't understand people who keep all their hatchlings. I can see a few on rare occasion, but ALL? You can always breed another of the same colors, why not be kind and help someone else out? I asked if I could be pinged if their dragons ever hatch another girl with those exact colors, but I'm somehow doubting this person will care enough to do so. I'm just so frustrated and disappointed right now... :(

I've seen like 4 Petopian dragons that are perfect in colour, genes and breed but they are always females -.- This is not a rant at the lovely people on here that breed beautiful dragons, it's a rant at the RNG gods of FR :hug:
