to get eggs that we missed, and everyone tries to be friendly. I mean, there are arguments, but nothing major. 😊

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 12:24 AM

There was this TC scammer. MORE than a year ago. He/she made fake accounts like 'triish' and other ones just to trick others & take eggs.

--was supposed to go to @Dionaea, and she gave me a Roo and Swornt for being kind enough to give him to her.

@trish Right! ❤️ GUYS.... I HAVE A SOLUTION!!! *Pulls out doccument labelled "CLASSIFIED"* 😱

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 12:24 AM

Hmmm. The only really greedy thing I've seen is when I offered on someone's Foo, and the only reason they didn't consider was because they

wanted to be the record holder of having the most Foos... ^^;

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:26 AM

I agree with @plookle There's still people around who do stuff like that. @missedcreatures for one. There's just a lot more baddies than-

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 12:26 AM

@chloekins Right! The first victim was.....Twilighteremily.. Part of the reason she had to quit... Oh, I remember Snowball..

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:26 AM

-goodies now.

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:27 AM

...shoot. I seem to remember someone named Snowball. What happened?

icymuffin • 13 Sep 2011, 12:27 AM

@chloekins ~Yeah that's the one I'm talking about. They made a really similar username and offered on trade lots...

pipkitten • 13 Sep 2011, 12:28 AM

Ah, I remember the problem with the fake name scammers... Luckily, I was never a victim, but I feel bad for those who were.

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:28 AM

I feel left out...I missed a ton when I became inactive. College searching and applications'll take a lot out of a person.

icymuffin • 13 Sep 2011, 12:28 AM

But there doesn't seem to be as many nice users as before. I mean, it was rare for a user to be so greedy back then. Now, it's everywhere...

taffy789 • 13 Sep 2011, 12:29 AM

Bah, I try to be all rainbows and lollipops round here. ^^ XD *FAIL* XD It should settle, hopefully. 😊

pipkitten • 13 Sep 2011, 12:30 AM

I feel like lightening the mood here a bit~ Anybody want a free Treetop w/ Easter Eggs travel? 😊

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 12:30 AM

@christened_moon No. It was Twilighteremily's most prized Tine that went to a scammer...

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 12:30 AM

Scary scammers...

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:31 AM

We just have to wait for a new batch of really nice people to come around. They'll come sometime....right?

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:32 AM

We're really blowing up the blog...over a thousand posts! Yes!

silver_winged • 13 Sep 2011, 12:32 AM

There are really nice people all around. ^^; We just dwell on the mean ones, I think.

ptheq • 13 Sep 2011, 12:33 AM

no one wants to trade my stor??? wow 1 day and already 1000 post!!!!!!

smilies • 13 Sep 2011, 12:33 AM

Solution?

pipkitten • 13 Sep 2011, 12:34 AM

There are a few new and newish people I've met that are really nice. ^^ I'd trust one of them with my most prized creatures, and that's--

icymuffin • 13 Sep 2011, 12:34 AM

@ptheq ~ I do. But not for 3-4 CS creatures.... I wouldn't have any left to trade for 6 others...

taffy789 • 13 Sep 2011, 12:34 AM

The only more than 1 creatures I want are Kinumps, they seem unwanted. ~ D:

pipkitten • 13 Sep 2011, 12:34 AM

--saying something! 😊

icymuffin • 13 Sep 2011, 12:35 AM

Pachi89... D;

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:35 AM

...hmm? Goodnight all. I promised my friend that I'd wake him up at 6...and I'm on EC time...this may not work. O.o;

christened_moon • 13 Sep 2011, 12:36 AM

...@taffy I have a Kinump you can have if you really want him. Post on my wall and I'll put him up in the morning. O

icymuffin • 13 Sep 2011, 12:38 AM

@perisikan ~ D': He was a really kind user who quit last month... Gave away so many rare creatures & was so nice to everyone

icymuffin • 13 Sep 2011, 12:39 AM

And then he helped me hunt down all those fishy accounts and all...

pipkitten • 13 Sep 2011, 12:40 AM

I didn't know Pachi extremely well, but I miss him...

crescentfeather • 13 Sep 2011, 12:45 AM

I nommed on a mooncaek e3e

taffy789 • 13 Sep 2011, 12:47 AM

@christened_moon - It's fine, I have too many right now anyway. ~ Enough for me. XD

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 12:47 AM

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 1:00 AM

@Perisikan Wow! 😱 I live right outside of Vegas. all of a sudden it was pouring and now it's drizzling. It came on so very fast.

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 1:01 AM

@perisikan I'm Asian. 😸

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 1:01 AM

I actually ran the mile today. SUPER HOT. DX

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 1:03 AM

@perisikan I could stalk you probably if I wanted to. Does your town start with an H? xD

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 1:05 AM

California Gurls We're unforgettable. BUT PSH, I THINK KATY PERRY MEANS THOSE WHO LIVE EVEN NEARER TO THE COAST LIKE ME. ❤️

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 1:06 AM

Cali girls are less fake than Vegas girls. But I heard from someone that girls aren't too great there anymore. But that's just a stereotype

smilies • 13 Sep 2011, 1:06 AM

@trish I hate that song. It's really ANNOYING X)

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 1:08 AM

@perisikan If its Henderson that's crazy. If it's somewhere like Boulder City or Summerlin, that's cool. (x

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 1:09 AM

Henderson? O.O;

trish • 13 Sep 2011, 1:10 AM

@chatial *gasp* California Gurlz aren't great? 😋

chatial • 13 Sep 2011, 1:11 AM

@Peri Well. You used to live crazy close to me and now you live about 20 miles away. @Trish Better than Vegas Gurlz.

taffy789 • 13 Sep 2011, 1:13 AM

All you guyz on the coast. XD I live close to the Gulf. ~~
