@Orderedchaos Hmm how interesting the descriptions arent used....Wouldnt the artist want the creature to have the personality they intended?

Orderedchaos • 27 Mar 2014, 8:42 PM

@momokie "User suggestions, upon submission, become property of Egg Cave and can be used in whatever way the Site sees fit."

Orderedchaos • 27 Mar 2014, 8:45 PM

That's from the Terms of Service. So we can freely change the description from what the user had for the creature.

momokie • 27 Mar 2014, 9:27 PM

@Orderedchaos Fair enough ❤️ I love what you guys have done so far 😃 keep up the good work, I love this site ❤️

karenna19 • 27 Mar 2014, 9:34 PM

@Orderedchaos wow, cool! The first paragraph of the Danaus' description is mine too, so sometimes they must use parts of what we write? 😊

Orderedchaos • 27 Mar 2014, 9:36 PM

@karenna19 We do use some bits if they fit with the site lore. 😊

karenna19 • 27 Mar 2014, 9:38 PM

@Orderedchaos Makes sense ^^ regardless the descriptions for the creatures are always spot on 😊 you guys do an amazing job!

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 9:54 PM

I don't agree user suggestions are better than the ones are being released, and I'm not saying that the ones released are better, because--

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 9:55 PM

that's not the point. I just think user suggestions should be here, such as the ones released lately, a few of both 😊

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 9:57 PM

@ian hey hey hey, just because of all that ruckus I made over the user suggestion plagiarism doesn't mean I don't want them to be suggested

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 9:58 PM

anymore. The user ideas bring a lot of diversity to egg cave. When you leave the creature making to a select few, your going to end up with

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:00 PM

a lot of similar critters. Also, not to be snippey, but this glooble thing looks a lot like the muckle... :/ Anyone agree?

momokie • 27 Mar 2014, 10:02 PM

@nenielsen I think it was made that way, the description of the Glooble says it comes from the Muckle 😊 they are related xD

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:02 PM

User suggestions can be good or bad, or even similar to current creatures. It's up to the egg cave staff to choose one that is fresh, and -

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:04 PM

creative.Otherwise, there could be a poll every month to let people vote on their favorite idea, even for just one of the monthlies. 😃

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 10:04 PM

Glooble comes from Muckle, so making them similar is the idea.

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:05 PM

@momokie hmm, I wished they do something new, but oh well. As long as its not another dog/cat. xD lol

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 10:09 PM

Yep, less travels on TA...

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:12 PM

Egg Cave is a privately-run and privately owned entertainment website. Just because there are outlets for user suggestions does not mean

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:13 PM

that users are entitled to make important decisions, or throw a fit when their input is not considered.

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:14 PM

Sometimes we users have to accept that Egg Cave can't please us with a particular update, and move on.

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 10:15 PM

@mrsgiggles I think the same. Users can suggest and be selected, but I don't think they have to complain when not selected.

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:20 PM

@mrsgiggles @raitonchidori I see your points, and yes, this is a privately owned site. But honestly, I think anything being supported by the

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:22 PM

public benefits from ideas and opinions from the people using it.There wouldn't be an egg cave without us paying for cc/viewing ads, and our

Got a Bag Pipes travel!😸

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:24 PM

suggestions increase the sites popularity, I'm sure. This is just my way of looking at it, but I'm the one always giving my opinion if they

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:25 PM

like it or not.... xD It's just hard to judge what the majority thinks by these blog posts because there's plenty of people too shy to post.

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 10:28 PM

I just think everything started when you said about plagiarism and no creativity, @nenielsen, which I disagree of both.

raitonchidori • 27 Mar 2014, 10:37 PM

But I don't want to start all again, is your opinion, I respect it.

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:39 PM

@taitonchidori thank you, and I hope you know I respect you opinion as well. 😉

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:50 PM

@nenielsen, sometimes, it's not about the opinion. When folks start making the same noise every single update, throwing strong accusations

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:51 PM

like plagiarism and creativity bankruptcy - very serious charges for an art-based entertainment website - don't be surprised if the owner

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:52 PM

decide to just drop the hassle by downplaying the role of user input in the website. Especially when these accusations are for the most part

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 10:52 PM

not backed by strong evidence.

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 10:59 PM

@mrsgiggles I understand your concern for the egg cave team, but I feel like your getting a little riled-up... if ian was as disgusted with

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 11:00 PM

me and my opinions as you are, then he would kick me off the site. :I

turkishdelight • 27 Mar 2014, 11:04 PM

Wow this happened really quickly!

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 11:08 PM

You're not listening. You keep implying that you are a victim every time you encounter a disagreement. If you keep this up, there's no point

mrsgiggles • 27 Mar 2014, 11:09 PM

discussing anything with you. Have a good day.

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 11:09 PM

@turkishdelight yeah, I was gone for two days and came back and this thing happened... O_o

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 11:11 PM

@mrsgiggles your very focused on me, and I get it, I'm a loud mouth. But my point in every disagreement is to not to "be the victim", but

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 11:12 PM

to show people there's another way.I'm not proud of the whole thing with the plagiarism, but I will stand up for my other ideas. I'm sorry

nenielsen • 27 Mar 2014, 11:14 PM

that I've upset you, but just because I have a comeback for everything you throw at me does not mean I'm focused on myself.

asi • 28 Mar 2014, 1:33 AM

Aand there are plenty of people who read these conversations and are just like, "siigh" CX Me, I'm tempted to buy another Glooble- soo cute!

skibaerle • 28 Mar 2014, 2:08 AM

I bought one

sparklefox • 28 Mar 2014, 3:05 AM

These arguments again? I thought we had gotten over them. Oh well. xD The Glooble is absolutely adorable. The third stage reminds me of -

sparklefox • 28 Mar 2014, 3:10 AM

- Wobbuffet, for some odd reason. 😋 Is it the pose it's in?

sparklefox • 28 Mar 2014, 3:15 AM

Anyway, this was pretty quick. Far quicker than the Calla. ^-^

skibaerle • 28 Mar 2014, 8:19 AM

I love april fools

bot • 28 Mar 2014, 8:25 AM

@Orderedchaos whAt we don't use them!? Then is there anywhere where I can sign up to write descriptions?
