Ask the Staff!

[Desmond]

//casually goes through 22 pages of questions to answer aheh

Woo! New thread! What's the longest period of time you've ever been sick? Did you miss a lot of work/school?

I get hurt more often than I get sick. ID Longest I've been life-pausingly sick, it took about... four days to get over? But I constantly get ear infections, and I've had labyrinthitis, and those can take at least a month to get over. However, I just plow on through those, despite the pain and vertigo.

Nice, new thread~!
Which type of weather do you prefer? I love watching thunderstorms, all bundled up inside with hot chocolate c:

I like the cool weather just after a good thunderstorm. I prefer cool weather to hot, even though I'm always cold, because I have more than enough of a supply of hoodies and coats.

I tend to be chaotic good, I think? Seems closest to me.

Any thought about having children?

No. Never. I refuse. I couldn't be paid, guilted, cajoled, or otherwise convinced to have or raise a kid. Just. No.

To anyone:

[calculator]

are you a; beginner, intermediate, or advance BBCoder?

[Ranger of the North]

I'm really interested in this at the moment, so this is a very expansive question, hahaha:
War.
What do you think of it? Do you think you'd fight if it was needed, or do you reckon you'd go bush? Is there anything war-related that's really struck/touched/moved you? Have you been to any war sites? Experienced any war-y stuff? Know anyone in an army? Know anyone who lived during WWII? What about have you ever drawn/written/seen anything war/battlefield-ish? Any important wars in your history that you care about, personally or not?
Sorry, this is quite long haha; I'm just really interested in wars right now ;p

To anyone:
What's your favorite color, and why?

[Seasonal]

to any staff:
what is your best memory on CS?

December 18th, 2010. It was the year that I got the most List pets that I ever have and I had a ton of fun swapping and watching the pets re-grow.

to anyone-

since becoming part of the staff, have you made any close friends who are also staff? if so, who?

I became good friends with Simon and Nadine from being a GH but I haven't really made any new friends since becoming a mod; I'm pretty asocial and everyone else is scary! ;w;

To any staff member:
Do you prefer cats or dogs?

I love both but I've always been a cat person.

To any staff (except Tess I guess):
How did you find out about CS?

I found CS on a Webkinz forum because one of my friends had an adoptable in her signature.

To anyone:
Is it fun being part of the cs staff? How do you feel about it?
Sorry if this question or something similar has already been asked!

It's challenging but it's also very rewarding. I've always wanted to be a mod and I'm really happy that I have the opportunity to be one. c:

To the staff, or anyone: what does COPPA or BBS stand for (completely different things, I think)? I've been confused for a while now..... please and thanks! :D

COPPA stands for Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. This was an act passed by the United States in 2001(?) to ensure that children are safe online. This act makes it so that younger children (under 13) may not post freely, so they cannot share personal information, talk to strangers, or otherwise put themselves at risk. This is why users under 13 may not post unless they fill out a COPPA form.

BBS stands for Benjamin Button Syndrome and is the opposite of PPS, so your pets are born as adults and will be old forever (as opposed to the other pets in the same litter without BBS which grew backwards back into puppies).

I'm really interested in this at the moment, so this is a very expansive question, hahaha:

Sorry, this is quite long haha; I'm just really interested in wars right now ;p

I'm really anti-war and am not patriotic at all. It is pointless to me and I have no interest in the subject.

To anyone:
What's your favorite color, and why?

Light pink or purple. I'm not really sure why, I just really like pastels and I think they're pretty! ^^

[Dia.]

to anyone:
what is your favorite dog breed? if not dogs, then any animal!

I love small dogs that have hair instead of fur c: My own dog is a bichon frise x shih tzu. She's perfect.
Favorite other animal? Hedgehog <3

to any staff:
what is your best memory on CS?

That would probably have to be getting my bee on the 18th the year it was released... or maybe the day I found out I was hired as an omod?

to anyone-

since becoming part of the staff, have you made any close friends who are also staff? if so, who?

-hugs all the staff-
In the beginning, I was closest with my fellow omods, Bentley and Swift. I've since branched out. c:

To any staff member:
Do you prefer cats or dogs?

Dogs. I'm allergic to cats. :c

To any staff (except Tess I guess):
How did you find out about CS?

I stumbled across some pets on a site called Dog Realm. It was a dog breeding sim... once of the most interesting sims I've ever found and it's gone. :c

To anyone:
Is it fun being part of the cs staff? How do you feel about it?
Sorry if this question or something similar has already been asked!

I really enjoy being a part of the site that made up my childhood. c:

I'm really interested in this at the moment, so this is a very expansive question, hahaha:
War.

Not a fan. I would not fight, but I also have preexisting conditions that would prevent me from doing so anyway. I've visited historic sites and I know veterans and active members of the military. I believe that the history is important to preserve to prevent the same mistakes from happening again... but it is not something that I am otherwise interested in. I also acknowledge that many scientific and technological advancements were made during times of war.
The closest thing to writing about war was in Warrior Cats RP and fanfiction.

To anyone:
What's your favorite color, and why?

Purple. It's pretty? c:

[~Liren~]

To anyone:
Why did you want to join the CS team?

[Iggy_The_Indominus]

how do you know if people have 2 accounts?

[Sorren Fey]

To Tess, Nick, or Sorren Fey:
What does CS look like when you log in? Is there a special admin panel that you can use? Also, what program do you use to draw the pets?

The site looks just normal when I log in but yes, we do have an admin panel to set up many different things. The admin panel is very plain, though.
I usually use Sai or Photoshop to make pets.

[ilovepelicans]

to anyone that's made a staff/GH pet before:
-Is it frustrating to see your outcome being assigned to someone else and have a lot of people cross it off as "figured out"?

I've always wondered how it must feel for the staff when their reading all of our silly speculations in the discussion threads!
