Welcome to EggCave @joydom29 ~
If you need help feel free to ask because nearly everyone here will he happy to help! You can ping people by writing @ in front of their username and that person will receive a notification saying that you have pinged them on a topic. Why don't you try pinging me?

Other ways of communicating is on a person's wall, you cannot ping on a wall. The Wall is located on the person's profile and if someone writes on your wall you reply to them on THEIR wall, not yours. This is a common mistake seen XD

Another common mistake is seeing players not feeding their own creatures, you CAN feed your own creatures!

Creatures gain levels by gaining feeds, clicks and views. You will notice that even if you have clicked and fed a creature, the level won't increase straight away. This is because levels and views only update once a day, around 3am ECT

Hide your EC (EggCoins) that you get from feeding your pets and other's everyday in your Strongroom and gather the interest every day.
When unable to go on EggCave for a while leave your pets at Tim's Food Shoppe and keep an eye on the Laws of Ark (site guidelines).

To gain some friends take a look at the forum. But make sure you do not revive a 'dead' topic. A topic that has not been active for quite a number of months! There are many threads that are active and many are always happy to chat to new players!

Cave Monthlies are creatures that are only going to be obtainable for this current month, take a look at recent blog posts to see which critters are the current monthlies.

A note, please be careful with trading, many will try to get a better deal out of a newer player just because you are new. Before trading for creatures, please do a little research first!

With the list of creatures, #1 on Eggcave IS NOT the rarest, it is the most common.

Messages that only have a smiley/emote (whatever you call them where you live) are considered spam and are not allowed

Some common things you will see
CC-Cave Cash
UFT- up for trade
TUFT- Tentative up for trade
UFA- up for auction
EC- EggCoins or sometimes EggCave

I hope you have fun 😊

Thanks so much! It cleared up a bit more. I do have a problem though, when I visit the Cave, nothing pops up. The Cave only works when I use my iPad and not my laptop.

@joydom29
Really? My laptop works fine to visit the cave. I'm using windows 8.

@sodabearjess yeah, I dunno why, it's just the logo and the rest is all white.
