1) That triple pearl? Yeah, still like, 50 bucks worth of gems...
2) I keep wanting to do my lair in various themes but I can't let my guys and gals go.
3) Dear coli, as hilarious as a hovering boss is, it's slightly less so when it crashes my browser.
4) Missing the skin I wanted in the market by seconds.
5) Green oozes and sludges.

Augh. Bought a new pair to breed a new version of my progenitor. Absolutely love their color possibilities but have literally zero plans for them outside of my project.

Ok, I understand being skipped in one of those "steal a dragon above you games" when you post at the same time or seconds before the next poster.

But I posted ten minutes before you. And you still skip me and the person above me. How...

Putting this in rant even though it's not that ranty but... jeeez.

Sold two hatchlings for slightly over 6k. They were instantly exalted...as hatchlings. The going rate for exalt bait is almost half that. They didn't even have an exalt bonus, nor were they particularly desirable colors, so I don't think it was 'getting rid of competition'.

I don't get it.

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

I feel like every time I gene a dragon, I haven't made any real progress. ;-;

Doesn't help that I've changed my mind on some oooolder ones and how to gene them (almost always swapping in gem genes too, which sucks)

the gem rate to dolors are too high imo.. 1000 gems; not even enough to get a gem gene cost 10 dolors, the same as i spend to feed my family for one day :o :shock:

Yeah I always thought it was bullcrap that it costs $20 to make a dragon a wildclaw ...$12-$15 for genes. :/ (More for me though as I am in Canada)

Plus hubby and I swore off any gem purchases after the massive crapfest when Thrage stuff was going on, put a reallllly bad taste in our mouth about the site. He ended up quitting and I mostly quit, I get pops of activity every few months or so but...meh.

Yeah, I think they want way too much for gems as well. Thing is, I don't think they could really reduce the price even if they wanted to (which I don't think they do) because then all the people that bought gems at the old price would scream for refunds and how their 'investment has been devalued'.

um gems are not an investment and frankly people would probably be happy if they adjusted if they were able to. and what the heck is with this Tharge ..who is it and why are some people so damned pissy?

One of their coders... uh. Honestly I don't really remember what either, but he basically stepped in the Tumblrpoo and did something a bunch of people found offensive, and they screamed until he got fired. I remember not being particularly ruffled by whatever it was, but a bunch of people just lost their shit.
