Oh wonderful. Guess my chance of ever getting that hatchling lies somewhere between fat chance and never. ~*sigh*~

Wait wait wait... what? Boycott of the site? HUH??

Is the admin Thrage? If so, they'll never be back.

I assume because of this; Though from the reply it seems to be a bit of BS.

T'would be it. Apologies for derailing the thread a bit. I always check into the recent forum activity of those who I may be waiting around for a reply from to see if they've been on/said anything about taking a vacation, etc. Just so I might be able to get a time frame on a reply. I happened to notice that this particular person said something about ceasing activity on the site due to that on the Flight Rising Community thread. Oi.

So my rant is this: I have the worst luck ever when it comes to finding dragons on my wishlist.

Honestly, if they want something done about an admin or a part of the site, then, uh... boycotting won't really get them anything if there isn't more than ~60-70% of the active userbase doing so as well and the boycott hasn't been loudly stated, I hope they realize that

I whole-heartedly agree. That rarely (if ever) solves anything.

People who don't know how to link dragons correctly. This is a big pet peeve of mine. Especially when I'm scrolling through a Dragon Share thread and want to look at a dragon owners lair and suddenly I get that non-linked picture. ARGH!

It makes me want to PM the person and nicely say:

Just in case you didn't know: If you click on "Generate Code" and then copy (ctrl+C) everything below the BBCode: and before the HTML: and then paste (ctrl+V) that into your message, it will place a picture of the dragon that others can click on to go directly to the dragon in the persons lair.

And... the obs/fire/obs ping list I'm on, once again produced only GIRLS. ARGH. I swear that I'm cursed when I'm on ping lists. They never produce the right gender that I'm looking for. *sigh* Plus, the person who was breeding them isn't going to breed them anymore. Just my luck.

My mother is trying to help by purchasing the boy from that pairing and breeding it to the girl she has, but the secondaries have a bit of a range, so I'm guessing that will be a long wait.

Plus they need to be bred in a fire nest, which is something I can never seem to find enough of.

And while I'm on a rant roll: If you are a fellow Petopian, please don't remove me (Faileas) from your friends list. I would like to keep all Petopians on my FR list. I'm assuming the removes were accidental as perhaps the username wasn't recognized. Anyway, I'd appreciate it. I like to keep track of who is who there. Thanks.

This isn't a rant so much as just a petty personal complaint. I fail at apparel. I have 12 or 13 pages of apparal in my hoard because I cannot seem to actually properly clothe my dragons. Meh. I'll figure it out someday.

Don't worry, Ash; I'm waiting for someone to breed me an Obs/Crim male Wildclaw with Lightning eyes and so far, every single one that's popped out has been female >< It doesn't help that their secondary color is a range between Crimson and Ice Dx I hate breeds with long cooldowns ugh

and I feel you on the Swipp stuff, I had the same problem with the Cloudy Wings and Journeyman's Satchels ><

There's this handy pinglist thread for Swipp items, you can add yourself to the spreadsheet for any specific ones you're after, and then people will notify you when they spot that those items are being offered, it's worked for me quite a few times!

I have two scatter projects now;

The first girl because I'm sick of her goddamn tert throwing the rest of her colors off and the second girl I've had as an off-side scatter project for awhile... but the sheer amount of gems this is going to cost me is gonna run my broke ass into the ground -.-
