Lion_Killer the Maser

Oooo, I normally hate ranting, hate being irratated/annoyed, and going wah wah and pissy, but today is one of those days where I shall.

The reason I suddenly lost my 'chill' for today is for an accumulation of reasons.

So sit back and relax as you enjoy my rant, free of charge! Here's a popcorn!

1. Stop preying on the n00bs
There's multiple bullets for this one!
- Don't dump your junk eggs onto n00bs and call them a gift. It's pretty obvious if you are trying to get rid of them if, you just had a trade lot up that says "Free junk eggs! Don't need them don't want them!" Only to find out that no ones offering, so you go to the younglings to dump your trash in. Your act of kindless is belied by your act of selfishness.

They're so ecstatic and you're happy, so we're all happy right? N00bs are ignorant, and I don't mean that in a mean way, but they don't know values. If they do release that 1000x spidet egg you gave them turns into a creepy mofo that can be found in the cave, you think they'll still be happy? Y

You think they still be ecstatic to stay and learn, only to find out that all 50 eggs you gave them are easily obtainable through the cave, to find out they aren't as "rare" as you make them out to be, or to find out that they just dumped it all on you (don't even bother passing them off as 'rare, special egg that needs a loving home. That's such BS. You won't even give them a 'loving home' cause you're the one giving them away. Silly.).

Good intentions, bad execution.

But to the people taking the times hatching the eggs/giving them out, you stay you. You're fine.

2. Stop trying to rip off returning users
Oh yes, the returning users with the batch of rares. People suddenly wants to be friends with you, huh?

Speaking from experience, coming back from a long break is scary. Everything is overwhelming. Values change dramatically. Their friends are not on anymore/everyone is a stranger.

Can you all just stop and think about other people for a minute instead of yourself for once?

Sometimes it's embarrassing to see people welcoming new users with rares back and ignoring the ones that don't have anything on them. Cause all we want is "nyms nyms nyms" and if you don't have it, you're not worth it.

Has everything just revolved around values?

Because it seems to me, that your value determines your worth. And I'm not just talking about the worth of one's cove.

3. Can yall stop trying to be my friends in hopes of getting a creature
You know what lovely thing happened? When I put up a trade that's labeled for friend, I had a person who I've never talk to ask for that trade.

Okay it's fine. Maybe he can't read.

I clarified, gently, that it was gift for a friend.

And this gentleman went ahead and sent me a friend request.

There, we must be friends now. Now give me the creature.

Some nerves you got there, boy.

Yes, someone actually typed out "we're friends now, can I have the creature?" after sending me a request.

4. Bye guys I'm leaving!
"I'm leaving for a break and I'm going to give away my creatures."

Okay, we don't have to be friends if I'm giving away creatures.

I don't care as long you can take care of it.

But don't even give me fake sympathy.

As in, I've never talked to you and not once have you took the time to talk to me. But now, as soon as I'm leaving, now you suddenly care?

Amidstthe hundreds of emojis you included in your heartfelt letter, you typing out your boo-hoo you're leaving us, please don't, I miss you! May I adopt so and so.

Look, you can have the creature. But that's the only reason you bothered to talk to me, so save your time, and skip your wah wahs.

LOOKATTHISIMADEITMYSELF
Bam! Nope! caught red-handed. That's not your work, but someone elses. As in, you snip>copy>pasted it, and now you claim you did the wonderful art.

This is disrespectful to the artist and it really baffles me when people deny it. Being inspired by an art =/= copy.
