Glitterbutt is the scourge of everyone. A bigtime pain in the neck that likes being very entitled and complaining a lot. Hopefully they'll go the path of Jaibo and get slapped with a permaban!

(Jaibo was... oh man. Exalted dragons that people sent over for joint breedings, tans/homo/everything-phobic, sent tons of anon hate to someone who was suicidal... Everyone let out a sigh of relief when they got banned.)

Sounds like a winner. :/ Thanks. I see a few names crop up and while I google them, it doesn't always work out. I think I'll stick to quietly saving for a coatl and noobing it up cheerfully in the corner. Also, argh. Firefox staaaaaaahp.

I have a coat nest hatching soon, I'd be happy to send a baby your way if you like one, Novi. :) Perhaps I'll set up a giveaway for their upcoming hatchlings.

Aw, sure! I think they're great. But I suspect adoring things is not so much a rant. >_> Um. Hmm. Besides flash woes with firefox, I'm digging it.

I think since they put in the ability to petition against offensively-named exalts, the actually-offensive names have gone down. I haven't had any named 'Exalt' or "SomethingIntern' of late, but I have had a few 'unnameds' go past.

And yeah, if you put something up for 6k and it's exalt bait that's one thing (and I name those). 10-11k? That's a -lot- to waste on a dragon you'll only get 2.5k back for... so I never figure that someone will just up and exalt something they paid that much for. So I don't name them.

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

Exalt, I wont report it, but I don't like it. It's not offensive.

Yeah, I was puttering around auctions and saw someone with a name that went ------whore (censored because hey, I'm not out to shame anyone). I sort of went 'huh'. Then o_o Then I shrugged and wandered off.

I'll try to make an effort to warn people of big dominance pushes- they regularly push hatchling prices up to 10k+ and sometimes get as high as 16k. Fire and Plague are going at it big time, so be warned for this week that if your dragon is priced below 20k, there's a good chance it'll be bought for exalt.

(Exalting unnamed, from what I've been reading, isn't always intentional. A lot of people exalt 30-40 dragons at a time and random name each one, but FR will lag or the "accept" won't go through, so they'll exalt unnamed by mistake. But later on in the week, especially Saturday night- be safe and name all for-sale dragons. People buy and exalt so much and so fast that they won't care about name, price, anything- so long as it can be exalted.)

XD Fire and Plague never even let the AH recover after Shadow and Earth (who, right before roll over pushed AH prices to 14k as the lowest price). They just hit the ground running.

Warning to all- 10k dragons are no longer safe. Expect dragons with prices from 10-15k to be at risk for the next few days- and by the end of the week, it might get even higher!

Thank for the warning :) I accidentally sold some babies for cheap (comparatively) at the beginning of this week, thinking there wasn't a push going on since a push had just ended x.x So warnings are nice

part of the Coatl breed information
Coatl who are naturally born grey or white are regarded as bad omens, and often exiled from nests to protect the rest of the clutch from catching illness or ill luck.

i dont like that they put colors on as bad or good :?
