Hi! :)

Hi, i'm very new to this site, I found this site while looking around the web in search for a virtual game. I'm currently homeschooled, and I live in the United States. I also play Flight Rising, and Chicken Smoothie. Anyway, I'm hoping to get a few tips and tricks on how to play this game, and earn some currency! 😊

How exactly do I level my eggs into creatures?


EDIT: This is an old post of mine, I joined last year. But, I died out the first few days of playing. So, I am pretty much a newbie. ^-^

@blue. - Welcome to Egg Cave! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

If you are replying to someone, you should ping them. Otherwise, they won't be notified of your reply and therefore be unaware that you've done so. To ping someone, simply type an @ followed by their username (e.g. @sparklefox ). You can only ping up to five people per post, and anyone pinged after those five people will not receive notifications about the ping.

Checking out the Forum Rules (http://eggcave.com/forums/rules ) and the Site Guidelines (http://eggcave.com/guidelines ) would be an easy way to start. These explain what is and what isn't acceptable regarding the site itself and the forums. A couple of other useful links are the FAQ (http://eggcave.com/explore/faq - a helpful list of commonly asked questions) and the eCode guide (http://eggcave.com/forums/ecode - the code tags used around the site, such as the tags I'm using to make this appear in italics. Just a little tip, but EC doesn't seem to currently support BBCode or HTML tags, so posting your creatures onto these forums using the codes provided for them will not work.).

A common mistake from newbies is that they'll ping and reply to people who have commented on their wall using their own wall. Pinging does not work out of forums and the blog, and to reply to the comments made on your wall, you go to the user's wall instead. That way, they will be notified about your reply.

Egg Coins (EC) is the main currency of this site, and is used to purchase most of the things available on the site - such as items and travels for your creatures. These are mainly gained through feeding eggs / creatures. Creature Cash (CC) is another currency and is used in the Cash Shop Park. This is purchased through real life money and can be spent on many exclusive items and creatures only available here. Exchange Credits (XC) is for use in the Click Exchange - found by clicking on the XC amount in the sidebar. These are gained through clicking the creatures in the Click Exchange, and every click on any creature(s) you have in here uses one of your XC. If you have none left, then your creature(s) won't appear in the Click Exchange until you gain more (and yes, getting a minus amount is completely normal and happens when people click fast enough on your creature).

This post here (https://eggcave.com/forums/topic/44168 ) explains many different abbreviations which are commonly used around this site. It would be helpful to read through it.

You don't "level your eggs into creatures". Level is used for immortal creatures - which are creatures over level 2,000. To evolve your creatures, you need to reach the right amount of stats for that creature's species (200 feeds, 1,000 views, etc.). You can find this out via looking up the species in The Archives.

I apologise if you knew any of the above information already.

Have a great day, and a nice time here!

@blueperiod Hello! Welcome to Egg Cave, I hope you enjoy it here. 😊 Do you have any more questions or anything you need help with? I see sparklefox gave you a few tips already, let me know if there's anything else you need. ❤️

@elluwah


I am, I do have three questions, though.


1.) How do you make a post a different color? I've been trying two ways that I'm used to, but they won't work. Those ways are:
2.) Can you gift people things; If so, how?
3.) Can you do offsite trading; If so, with what sites?


And I also had a period in my username, the first 5 hours I was playing, but a mod/admin/helper said my username would be blueperiod from now on, and if I didn't care for the name blueperiod then he told me I could send a ticket to Eggcave for a username change. But I haven't heard back, and it
s been about 24 hours.

elluwah • 26 April 2017 at 12:53 PM

@blueperiod I'll answer your questions as best I can! 😊

You can change your post colour and do multiple other things by visiting this link:
https://eggcave.com/forums/ecode
It'll teach you about linking to other pages on the site, changing font colour, all the emoticons you can use, and more. 😊

Yes you can gift items to people! If you want to send them to another user, click on the item in your inventory and click "send to a friend", type in the name of the person you want to send it to and they'll get a notification that you've sent them a gift!

I recommend doing all trades within Egg Cave itself, you can trade creatures and items and CaveCash all on the website, so there's no reason to do anything off site. ❤️

You'll hear back from the staff eventually, don't worry! Since we updated to a new version of the site, there's a lot of bugs that need fixing and they're working hard to make everything okay. If you feel concerned about it, just let them know, they're a friendly bunch and will help you out when they can!

Hope I helped. 😊

@blueperiod
Egg Cave is a fun adoptables web site where you can adopt creatures, share them, take care of them, and make new friends. Mainly, you can collect and raise over 500 different creatures. You can get creatures daily at the cave. Creatures can die if you don’t feed them, but they will turn immortal at level 2000+, meaning they will not die. You can level up and grow creatures by getting them views, clicks and feeds. Feeding creatures is the most effective way to gain EC or eggcoins (the site’s currency). You can use EC to buy creatures, items and backgrounds called travels.

Words to know:
UFT: Up for Trade
NFT: Not for Trade
TNT: Transfer not Trade (do not offer)
UFA: Up for Auction or Up for Adoption
EC: Egg Coins (Currency - free)
CC: Cave Cash (Currency - costs real money)
CSP: Cash Shop Park Creature
TA: Travel Agency
PM: Private Message

When starting to trade, make sure you read peoples’ profiles and the creature profiles before asking them if something is UFT. I recommend learning how much a creature or item is worth before trying to trade for it.

How to feed quickly:
Follow these steps:
1) Ctrl+click all the eggs (that your computer can handle without lagging)
2) Click the first tab
3) Feed the egg
4) Hit ctrl+w
5) Keep your mouse in the same place (feed) and continue clicking then ctrl+w
6) Repeat

To get started, I would check out the Help & FAQ section at http://eggcave.com/explore/faq
Rules can be found here: http://eggcave.com/guidelines

Helpful Site: Eggcavity.com

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Make sure you reply to people on THEIR wall and reply to people on the forums by clicking the bell or putting an @ symbol in front of their name so they get a notification called a ping. You can practice pinging me.

Have a great time on Egg Cave!
-Promise
