- Less of an update and more of a PSA:
I would like to begin by stating that I have no intentions of fostering a community of negativity and ungratefulness.
If you think it's going to be hard for you to refrain from those two habits, I suggest you refrain from joining the adopt.
It seems there's been some confusion about the way this adopt works, so I'll clear it up here:
- Founders are completely randomized. You might not get the coat or markings you want. That's fine. Trade it.
- Adopts will largely be natural in design. I created this on the premise that elementals and unnatural markings would be more rare and special.
- Artists are putting in a lot of time and effort to make your founders and put out adopts. Take the time and effort to appreciate it.
So many of you are friendly, appreciative, wonderful people, and I'm so grateful to have you around. I like to see all the random conversations any hour of the day on discord, and I love reading all the names you give your founders when I update the archives. You guys rock.
Unfortunately, there are a select number of people who can't be bothered to recognize that they can't always get what they want, and aren't mature enough to handle it appropriately. If someone has a problem with a founder I make them: fine. Whatever. I seriously couldn't care less. But when you insult my staff I draw the line. Blatant negativity about another user is never okay. That's disrespect, and that's bullying.
I sincerely hope that this message doesn't scare anyone off (unless you're a bully, in which case begone). I hate to be the bad guy, and I generally like to get along with people. But I do want it known that I have absolutely no toleration for users who think it's okay to badmouth other users or their artwork.
Thank you for your time reading this.
