Hi i'm incredbily unlucky and got a bug, one of my literally worst fears does anyone know how to either donate this egg to someone else or trade it??? I don't want to be mean to it. It couldn't help it's fate but I defiantely am afraid of it and do not want the gode. Is there a a way to remove an egg or am I stuck with the fear egg for life

@feather_ladere You double posted on the forum, which you should'nt do. I answered on the other post. You can also check in the Archives to see if the creature you picked at Egg Cave will turn out as a bug or ask around, that way you won't have to pay the sum to set a creature up for Adoption. I also forgot, you can put them on trade / auction too.

@feather_ladere - 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. @wolfspike23). You can also click the left-pointing orange arrow in the grey box below a forum post.

Checking out the Forum Rules and the Site 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 Player Guide (a helpful list of commonly asked questions) and the eCode guide (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. Cave 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(s)).

This post here explains many different abbreviations which are commonly used around this site. It would be helpful to read through it, in my opinion.

Any creature which has reached level 2,000 or over is considered immortal and so cannot die. 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, available under the Explore tab above.

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

Have a great day, and a nice time here!

@feather_ladere - You can put it in the Auctions (found in the Shops tab) or Adoption Center (Explore tab). It'll cost EC to put it up for adoption, unfortunately.

I mean, I'd honestly bid on it if you put it up for auction to make sure it does go to someone.

@telekinec hi sorry that's actually a bad memory problem combined with a new problem OTL.
I totally blanked that I had already made it being kind of super upset at that time about a few things I didn't mean to double post like that. I'm actually kinda embarressed I did that /)//o//(\ future question: Where does one check the forum posts they already beyond pings.... /)~(\

@feather_ladere No problem. I'm just telling you so you can avoid that in the futur 😊 Anyways to answer your questions, you can see your posts and the number of topics you made through your profile page! Enjoy your time on here!

@feather_ladere Hello! Welcome to Eggcave 😊 And don't feel bad you don't like the critter, I'm extremely terrified of bugs and insects too 😋
