Is it just me, or are new users getting more rarer stuff nowadays? I joined a few months ago, and all the "rare" stuff in my cove (which aren't that rare) are basically from cove cleanouts or UFA lots. Even that STAR Yeep is from a trade. A newbie gift I got was a few Kujaks. But they were new at the time, but now they're common.

Now, looking at some newbies (who I won't name), one even has a Nym from someone. Another has a few Colatays, another has 2 Mos...

I'm not saying I'm annoyed about this. I'm not. It's nice that users are welcoming newbies with a nice rare creature. I'm not saying I didn't get anything. I got off to a good start and started trading and earning a lot of EC, which also helped with trading.

So... does anyone feel like this? Eventually someone will give a Tine to a newbie, or something like that. Because it seems like that to me. I might be wrong, but this is my opinion, and I want yours.

I didn't get anything,but I don't really mind.😊

So true. And most of the newbies that have the extremely rare creatures just lurk in the background, so it just makes me wonder what's going on back there...

@petraandlana You got nothing? Oh, well, if you're happy without...
@pirateseaz It looks like it. One newbie for a free frozen Nym.
@haunted Same with petraandlana. D;

@choocalate Yeah... I check the introductions forum every so often, do the odd "welcome", and a few days or weeks later they have so many rare creatures. ;_;

@karamel

Coming on to eggcave, you really don't stand a chance unless you've

A) Been here a while and everyone knows you
or
B) Have Cave Cash to trade

...unless you are Extremely lucky, in such cases, I would love to personally shake your hand.

@phoenixfox So true. It's kind of annoying. I can't get Cave Cash, and I bet others can't as well. Maybe we could start a protest and become famous and that way we can get rarer creatures! 😃
@bunnyshadow OMG, poor you... but you're OK now... right??
@orange Lucky. D: So lucky. Congratulations.
@iridescent Wow.
Wait.... where did your Frozen Nym egg come from??


A while back, when cfmtfm introduced me to EC, I saw a Mo. I saw it twice, so I thought, "Common as dirt. I won't bother with them yet."
Obviously the wrong decision. Now it's on my wishlist lol.

I got gifts ❤️ I can give you two of my Bliz's when they hatch.

@enigzima CSP = Cash Shop Park.
You have a CSP creature.

@iridescent Well you're lucky. Someone selling their Nym...
@7731826 Well, considering your cove against iridescent's, they're both the same level. You still got off to a nice start.

Deleted • 15 January 2012 at 9:59 AM

@enigzima your draqua is CSP;)

@enigzima See. Just put it as your wishlist on your profile, and voila, I bet some people would give you one. That's how generous they are nowadays. But when I joined...
I think it's just me. Even my step-sister (cfmtfm) got things like a Terron, a Chocob and a Flunny.

I actually had to post my wishlist somewhere to get a few Chocobs, but that wasn't like a newbie gift.

@dv55555 Well, you caught a Mo on your second day.
