*FR releases an item that everyone gets ONE of, then retires it* "Yeah, that's 150 gems on AH."
*FR releases an item that is available for a week, and people can obtain multiple of, then retires it* "7000 gems please."

Seriously I don't understand how darkened scars are so comparatively cheap to some fest apparel. Not that I'm really complaining, I like me those scars, but I'm just sour that I can get them waaaay easier than, say, a Windbound Plumage.
Or Night Sky Silks, for that matter :I

Someone messaged me last night asking me if I would sell my permababy to them and if not that they would just straight up find another dragon to copy it, even its name. They did offer to credit mine as the "inspiration" but still feeling kinda bummed out about it. I havent replied to them because I don't wanna come across as mean and there's nothing I can do really.

[Teigan]

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Or so they say. I would be upset about it also, though, flattery or not

[Flyra]

I guess so, I do appreciate the kind-of compliment in it but I'll secretly hope they don't find another dragon like her :p

[Bowno]

Thats pretty shitty of them TBH

[Flyra]

I plucked up the courage and politely asked them not to and thankfully they agreed. Phew.

[Kirrandria]

Are pings broken or something? I've been digging around in nest rental threads on FR for over a week now and nobody is responding argh.

[Teigan]

Good, I'm glad they realized that was not a cool thing to do!

PERFECT 5 id dragon up for auction... bids go higher than I can match :/ sucks being poor.. she would take the last place in my dragon list if I want to have hatchlings but she would have been worth it...just look at her..
What she could become:

[Bowno]

Dont even bother, Tarn.
That account is being sold. It was on DR a while ago where it said on their profile that they were selling their account and a new owner was incoming. Which is why I posted on their profile when it was still on DR, "Welcome to FR ;D"
Since then they removed their message from their profile, and the post was removed from DR because they forgot to black out the ID.

However, I would highly suggest not buying from them, as they are about to be breaking the rules.

I mean, you can do what you want, but just as a heads up.

[Ana]

Thanks for the heads up!! That was very nice of you
Too bad as it is such a perfect xxy oldie

[Bowno]

Yeah :C
But its better to know than to not know and risk having your gems go to someone breaking the rules and risk even losing said dragon after you buy it D:
Wish there was a way to let other people know on FR what's going on. But thats calling out D:

I hate being stuck on mobile. Was on vacation for a couple of days, and I don't trust public WiFi enough to touch it with a hundred foot pole (not to mention it not working half the time). I was participating in a contest on FR and, go figure, the one day I have no access to FR save for on mobile there's a dressing portion of the contest.

Dressing room doesn't work on mobile (at least, not for me).

Now, not only have I missed out on that daily prize, but I've likely missed out on my chance at the weekly grand prize as well. All because I didn't have access to the right portion of FR for one day.

*Messes around with scrying workshop and dressing room, comes up with a great dragon that should be easy to obtain, Mirror Nature male with triple radioactive and Pin/Trail/Caps*
*searches AH for Nature Mirror males with triple radioactive, two pop up* Awesome... but can I save money on this project? If I don't have to brew the genes....
*searched for dragons with Pin/Trail/caps, forget element, can breed for it* *Only two dragons, both male, both kinda pricey* Ahh shoot, and no females. Okay, maybe I widen the search to include gem genes for the tert, and capsule will get passed on waaaay more likely. *does so, full page of dragons. Still all male*
Well then, maybe I... look for gem genes primary and secondary? And the dude will still pass down all his genes because that one percent chance. *does so, three pages now*
*Still all male*

......
Even my easy breeding projects are way more difficult than they need to be.

[Aleu]

Sooo I recently came back from a long break from the website after getting frustrated with... everything really. I just exalted a bunch of dragons and I suppose I can start mass producing exalt fodder for whatever faction wants Dominance. Then I remembered I had some projects to redo a few of my dragons and niengioewngvowrjgopewjgpowejgoewg. Back to the ol'grind I guess.

[Lupis]

[Ana]

I think our dragons have conspired on the same Lupis..

[Teigan]

The feeling when you find a perfect gem of a dragon who was a fodder priced adult, and miss buying her by a split second, and then desperately message the new owner about please selling her if she's just for exalt and not getting a reply and watching her level go up and seeing her get exalted.

I'm gonna cry.

Look at her colors! The way the coal underbelly compliments the dark tones in platinum skink, whose purple/pink tones go so well with the orchid spinner....dangit

...she was so perfect...

Oh, and she had rare Shadow eyes, too



Edit: Wow, sometimes people amaze me in a good way! The owner got my message after they exalted her, and actually restored her and sent her to me! Ok, gonna cry for a different reason now!
