Question: How do you decide when a pet line is going to be retired? Is there a certain point where you guys decide that your tired of the same line all the time and want to try something new? Have you been thinking about making a new pet line?

To everyone: Are you a twin or a single bebbe? If you're not, do you know any twins irl?

My first friends were both twins! They were my neighbors and our moms used to take walks together with us in strollers. They moved away when I was 3 or 4. I was a twin myself (fraternal) but my twin did not survive unfortunately. :c

Did you have any special toy/plushie/whatever in your childhood, or even now? What does it look like, if yes?

Yes! I've had Lily and Nelly since I was in 2nd grade. I almost lost Lily because I gave her to a long-distance boyfriend who I ended up breaking up with, and he wouldn't give her back. After that, I decided that she's never leaving my sight. I know it's kind of lame but I still sleep with her almost every night. ^^

    What is your favorite website besides CS?

    Favorite Disney Movie?

    And if you were cursed to be an animal for life, which animal would you choose?

Hmm... FurVilla right now. That's the only other site I'm active on ^^

Favorite Disney movie will always be The Lion King! I've loved it ever since I was a kid.

I'd want to be a bird because I've always wanted to fly!

Anyone who knows:

How do you decide how many pets people are allowed to adopt? Does it go the more outcomes there are the less we're able to adopt, or the other way? Or is there another mysterious way to dish them out? XD

You can always adopt more pets than there will be outcomes - or, in some cases, the amount of times you can adopt a pet will be how many outcomes there are. There will never be a litter with more outcomes than newborns available for adoption. Generally you can adopt a few more than the total number of outcomes.

Have you ever woken up early just to play a video game/go online?

Not particularly, but when I was younger and there was a 2-hour delay at school, I'd stay up and play on my PlayStation while my mom went back to sleep. x3

As long as you have not lied to the other person about the value of their pets, there is nothing in the rules that states that you have to tell the other person that their trade is unfair. A trade is considered "fair" if both parties are happy with the trade at the time of acceptance.

you don't have to tell people if a trade is unfair to them, and you don't have to make sure that it is fair to them, that's up to them to figure out. You can just accept it. And make bad offers all you like. It's only against the rules if you actively lie to them or mislead them to make them believe the trade is better than it really is.

"Ninja trading" is the style of trading where you basically just make a bunch of bad trade offers and hope something gets accepted. You're allowed to do that, but you might make a few enemies!

We don't often completely retire linearts. We did retire most of Malk's species when Malk left the site, but her place on the site was kind of different to the artists we have these days. We retired Tess horses once we had another artist to make horses for us, and same for Tess cats, although the sitting cat lineart is sometimes still brought out for special occasions. We have a lot of species that aren't technically retired but rarely get used, like lions, Tess dragons, etc. We're open to adding new species in the future, but we usually only add one or 2 each year. Too many species linearts means no items to fit them so we like to focus on our main monthly species first.

      To Tess:
      I apologize if you've been asked before, (I'm on mobile and can't search), but any staff can respond!

      Do you play Pokemon Go?
      If so; How do you feel about the recent update?

      I personally dislike the deletion of the paw distance feature, but I was glitched and they had to do something about it, haha.
I used to love this site. I was very active, helped around with LO/LO, and engaged in the adopt communities. I found myself losing interest and seeing more toxicity on here and from people here over on other websites. I don't find myself on here anymore and I doubt I'll come back. To my friends: I miss you. I hope you're well. Hopefully 2020 gets better for us. See you on the other side.

To Anyone,

Ever had a favorite rock band?

(I just love Guns n' Roses, I just recently went to the concert in Orlando. People were asking me why and how I was there, They were saying I'm too young to know who they are..)

That's kind of a morally ambiguous question, haha. Like Tess and Seasonal <3 said, as long as you aren't lying to others, accepting a trade like this is fine in terms of site rules. But, depending on how you look at things, and what your moral compass tells you, it could be considered lying by omission. I'd say go with what feels right to you. =) If you feel comfortable accepting the one-sided trade, then go for it! If something in your gut is making you feel bad, maybe don't do it and try to get those pets from different trade.

      "The United States does not have a national official language". We don't even have a first official language, lol. I speak English, and can write in Spanish and French.
