New fun/crazy feature. Introducing MW pets...

[mol]

To find out more about these little buggers and what you can do with them...click Petz in the main menu. In the dropdown, choose info.

Have fun! :hehehehe:

[mol]

Mine is Rick James, biatch!

[Semele]

This is way better then journals any day!

Yay petz!

[mucgwyrt]

I have Willy the Snilly.
I can't figure out how to feed it though...

[Boogins]

This looks demented--I like demented!!

[jodarius]

i want a pet, but there arent any to adopt :(

[bellamandu]

actually i just now noticed this.... hmm...

[mucgwyrt]

Meet Willy-the-Snilly, the bright orange gender confused snaile (with an e, she thinks its trendy :D )

[Radocs]

Cool... 'cept there's none in the adoption center. :p

[bellamandu]

it makes me wonder though, are ppl gonna start posting random stuff just so they can feed their petz?

also, what happens if we are just poor and lazy and our petz die of starvation?? :lol:

[Druchii]

MALEKITH!!!! USURPER OF ALL THAT IS SUGAR COATED!!!! :hehehehe:

[Boogins]

We're pet-less?? :lol:

[Radocs]

We're pet-less?? :lol:

Seems we are.. Druchii has figured it out though.

[bellamandu]

MALEKITH!!!! USURPER OF ALL THAT IS SUGAR COATED!!!! :hehehehe:


go fight, u... :lol:

[Kaylara]

Lmfao!

[Boogins]

I love your avatar, Semele... :D

[bellamandu]

heh. ghetto grover.

[mol]

i want a pet, but there arent any to adopt :(
Create one in the usercp!

[argento_occhi]

well, all i'm gonna say is that this should be fun.....

[kewlhippiechick]

i want a pet, but there arent any to adopt :(
We have to save up...I think...

[Radocs]

Create one in the usercp!

D'oh. >_<

[hastings1066ad]

Macha, I'm jealous-- you got a petz--even if it is gender confused!
-Hastings

[Semele]

I merged the threads..lol!

There is some glitch, some folks get more money when they create a pet then others get..odd! Mol is trying to figure it out!

[Semele]

heh. ghetto grover.LOL!! rock on!

[Faeawyn]

Ok...so what is Lemonpoo??? When I click on that VBPetz 2.0 thingy...I get Lemonpoo :lol:

[Semele]

Radocs, I tried to accept your challenge but it said I had exceeded my pet interaction limit and I have to wait 24 hrs! LOL! Whatever that means.

[mol]

Ok...so what is Lemonpoo??? When I click on that VBPetz 2.0 thingy...I get Lemonpoo :lol:
Thats the original guy who created VB Petz. I took the actual link out so people wouldnt click on it.

[Radocs]

Lemonpoo appears to be some other forum, probably has something to do with the petz feature.

[Radocs]

Radocs, I tried to accept your challenge but it said I had exceeded my pet interaction limit and I have to wait 24 hrs! LOL! Whatever that means.

Nuts. I was hoping to throw my poor spider right into the fray. :D

[mol]

Radocs, I tried to accept your challenge but it said I had exceeded my pet interaction limit and I have to wait 24 hrs! LOL! Whatever that means.
Try it now.

[argento_occhi]

lemonpoo? what, is that some strange attempt to make faeces more presentable? lacing them with lemon oils or something?

*please ignore my ramblings, i am tired and hungry*

[Radocs]

Try it now.

Bring the pain! :lol:

[hastings1066ad]

Yay! I just created Langsuir my nasty, nasty spider. Thanks Mol-- I'm already having fun.
-Hastings

[Tzhebee]

So, if I must feed my pet and keep it happy, what happens if I am gone for say 6 days? Can I have someone else care for my pet?

[amberwolf]

This is gonna be fun :)

[Semele]

Bring the pain! :lol:
Hehe! Well now it lets me click on play or taunt, but it just reloads the same page?

[Faeawyn]

OH...my Fido is so gonna tear ya'll up :lol: He may be smiling..but he is VICIOUS!!! Ruthless...and shows NO mercy!!

[hastings1066ad]

So, if I must feed my pet and keep it happy, what happens if I am gone for say 6 days? Can I have someone else care for my pet?

Looks like that's when you put them in the adoption center to be cared for by others.
-Hastings

[Radocs]

Hehe! Well now it lets me click on play or taunt, but it just reloads the same page?

I'm getting PM's about your taunting and playing!

[kewlhippiechick]

How is everyone able to adopt already? It keeps telling me there aren't any up for adoption yet...I feel left out...:(

[mol]

Looks like that's when you put them in the adoption center to be cared for by others.
-Hastings
Thats the ticket...or have someone else take care of them.

[Semele]

I'm getting PM's about your taunting and playing!
Sshhh, my husband will hear! ;)

Yeah FYI..a taunt will get 10% taken away from happiness while playing adds 7%!

I see my pm box is filling up fast!

[Radocs]

Good battle, jo!

Okay, now how do I heal my little guy? Doesn't seem to be anything in the shop.

[Tzhebee]

More clarification questions:

Can I loose money? (or have it taken away)
If I place my pet in the adoption center, what if the person adopting them doesn't want to give them back?
What if nobody loves my pet and he doesn't get adopted? Does he die?

[Radocs]

Looks like you can lose money if you lose a fight.

[Dextra]

Yay! I got a turtle! Just like my real Chainsaw! :floating:

[Radocs]

I take that back,. looks like you can lose money some other way.. I just lost some and I'm not sure how. :D

[mol]

Looks like you can lose money if you lose a fight.
Its because you are putting up a wager.

[Nantonos]

OK so is there a faq on this? Google knows how to install it but not ow to use it. I know, read the source code if you want documentation .....

[Nighthawk]

My notes say, if you post you get money to feed...

[Morr]

i am SO not getting this...
how do i make it happy or feed it or buy it stuff???

[Radocs]

i am SO not getting this...
how do i make it happy or feed it or buy it stuff???

Doesn't look like you can yet. o_O

[bellamandu]

stupid question, but how am i supposed to get a pet if there are none up for adoption? :elf:

[Sylvan]

How do the faces change (I see some have tongues out, some don't, some don't even have mouths..)? And will there be other designs to choose from in the future?

[kewlhippiechick]

No fair! I have to go to class now...I'm sad! And why aren't there any to adopt???!!! :elf:

[Radocs]

stupid question, but how am i supposed to get a pet if there are none up for adoption? :elf:

Use your UserCP to create one. ^_^

[WynnJera]

There are no pets left for me to adopt :sniffsnif and this petz thingy is like a game I play called creatures ... you hatch them from eggs and them you have to teach them ... it is really fun :) ... I WANNA PLAY :strike: :lol: Oh BTW how do you earn Petz bucks

[Semele]

i am SO not getting this...
how do i make it happy or feed it or buy it stuff???
Mol has to make that stuff yet!

[Radocs]

How do the faces change (I see some have tongues out, some don't, some don't even have mouths..)? And will there be other designs to choose from in the future?

Looks like their expressions change depending on their happiness level.

[bellamandu]

Use your UserCP to create one. ^_^


oh....right..... thanks!

[Sylvan]

I'm thinking about creating a slew of them and putting them all up for adoption... :lol:

[Radocs]

Well my poor spider is pretty PO'd right now. :D He's not hungry.. let's see if playing with another pet makes him happier..

[broodingseeker]

I love Petz! Its really fun. I created a kitty for me, yay! I love him. :hehehehe:

[mol]

I have created a store...with a couple of food items so far.

[Morr]

wait.. so what money counts?
the one i deposit in the bank or the money i get from my posts & stuff?

[Radocs]

Well my poor spider is pretty PO'd right now. :D He's not hungry.. let's see if playing with another pet makes him happier..

Nope! I'm thinking feeding and having someone else play with your pet is the only way to increase happiness.

[Saphra]

~pets the kitty~ awww, Mol, did you draw them?

[Nantonos]

So ... you can play with everyones pet except your own? And the only time you can taunt a pet is when you are not in battle?

Eiter I am missing something or this is warped.

[WynnJera]

There are no pets left for me to adopt :sniffsnif and this petz thingy is like a game I play called creatures ... you hatch them from eggs and them you have to teach them ... it is really fun :) ... I WANNA PLAY :strike: :lol: Oh BTW how do you earn Petz bucks


Nevermind I found it ... Everyone I would like you to meet Netis :)

[Morr]

How do i "taunt a pet"??
i dont get this...

[luna rising]

Yay! I got a turtle! Just like my real Chainsaw! :floating:

Please tell me you named your turtle after the character in "Summer School," because if you did, you are the coolest person on the face of the earth.

Imma go make a pet now. Thanks for the new fun!

[Radocs]

So ... you can play with everyones pet except your own? And the only time you can taunt a pet is when you are not in battle?

Eiter I am missing something or this is warped.

Seems so. ^_^

[luna rising]

Bad*ss!!!!! Everyone, meet Arturo Binewski!
<-----------------

[mol]

Seems so. ^_^
You give your own pet pleasure by buying it trinkets, etc. The stores will be up in a bit... :)

[Ravensnest]

I just discovered this lol so meet my cat... fuzzy butt!

[mol]

Should their be a limit, per day, on how much your pet can be taunted or played with?

[Ahautenites]

Oh, wow! This is like Neopets for Those of Non-Mainstream Preferences. (Trying to be politically correct.)

Only way it would be more like Neopets would be if we got petz money for playing in the arcade.

Very cool, though. :D

[Radocs]

You give your own pet pleasure by buying it trinkets, etc. The stores will be up in a bit... :)

Gotcha! I'll be patient. :D

Also, it looks like there is indeed a limit on taunts and playing.. accoring to the info screen it's set to 999 though. o_O

[Nantonos]

How do i "taunt a pet"??
i dont get this...

You click on someone elses pet, then you have two choices, taunt it or play with it. Playing with it makes it happier and your pet happier too, i think. Taunting makes the other pet unhappier.

I just taunted your pet once then played with it three times to make it happy again.

Doesn't look like playing with someone's pet makes yours any happier.

Yah...I think 999 is too much.

[Radocs]

Yah...I think 999 is too much.

Yeah I'm inclined to agree. >_<

[mol]

I made it 50 / 50.

[DragonsChest]

I just saw this thread, and all I can say is::: NOOOOOO! Yet another way to suck me in and keep me here (as if I need one :hehehehe: ) I really will get fired now, spending all my time at MW when I should be working/making dragons/being an active family member.......!!! :lol:

This sounds like fun. Now I have to get some money......

Yeah, ditto. As it is I keep MW up on my computer all day at work. Now I am going to constantly be puppy/snail/spider/kitty playing!! I hope my pup will be OK at night though, I rarely log on at home -- computer is tooooo slow.

[Kaylara]

:D Hehehehe... I love this already.

[Radocs]

Some of ya'll healed your pet really fast. I haven't even got mine halfway healed again. >_< Sheesh!

[Eowyn]

Wonderful - this is going to be such a great thing!!! *yay*

[Jenne]

LOL ITA--yet another way to suck us all in! Keeping us here for hours on end...

Fun fun!

[soilsigh aingeal]

How did I not see that coming :lol: Faux pas, Mol . . . faux pas!

[Klucky]

*taps foot* Well, mol? I'm waiting. :p

-Klucky

[Tzhebee]

Just in case any of y'all don't want your money...you may deposit it to my bank account. #8014. :D

[luna rising]

Well, that's awfully kind of you ;)!! Where do you find your bank #?

[mol]

Hey...um...where are the chicken-looking pets? :eyebrow:

-Klucky
No chickens yet....bt in version 3 there will be more stuff!

[Felidae]

Well, that's awfully kind of you ;)!! Where do you find your bank #?
Under the Petz tab there's a link for "BANK" that should take you to yours.

[Tzhebee]

Click on Petz - Bank. Then if you have an open account, your number is listed on the right side in the information box. :D

BTW, that will cost you 10 monies. :lol:

[mol]

How did I not see that coming :lol: Faux pas, Mol . . . faux pas!
Petz > Bank

You have to open an account, first. :)

[Klucky]

No chickens yet....bt in version 3 there will be more stuff!

Then I shall save my money and wait. ;)

-Klucky

[Cinnamon Girl]

OK, not really sure what I'm doing, but I have a pet!


Meet Willy Wonka!

[luna rising]

Sweet. Hey Mol, can we have frisbees in the shop? Arturo Binewski definitelty wants a bee.

[mol]

Sweet. Hey Mol, can we have frisbees in the shop? Arturo Binewski definitelty wants a bee.
Sure...give me a couple of minutes!

[Klucky]

Sure...give me a couple of minutes!

Oh suuuure, he gets his in a couple of minutes. I have to wait! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey, quick question, is the only way I can get a pet through the adoption center? There are only two in there right now...

-Klucky

[Faery-Wings]

Just in case any of y'all don't want your money...you may deposit it to my bank account. #8014. :D

Or if anyone wants to help a poor pet in need...

I think my little girl is going to be the first one too die. In 120 hours! :lol:

[mol]

Oh suuuure, he gets his in a couple of minutes. I have to wait! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Go to your usercp and create a pet. Adoption is for people who cant take care of their pets and want to give them to a good home.

[mol]

Or if anyone wants to help a poor pet in need...

I think my little girl is going to be the first one too die. In 120 hours! :lol:
You need to go to Pet-X. The medication store. :)

[WynnJera]

Netis wants cat nip ... how was that over looked :lol: .... and she has eat scooby snacks instead .... she is suffering :lol:

[Nantonos]

Petz > Bank

You have to open an account, first. :)

Does it cost money to open an account?

[Nantonos]

Does it cost money to open an account?

Never mind - I tried it and, it doesn't.

Well, of course...but you know...there is always Just Silly in a pinch. Otherwise...go forth and looketh for good threads and earn Pet Cash!

[Nighthawk]

WHat happens when you are typing challenhed and name your pet wrong? Like one letter..

[mol]

WHat happens when you are typing challenhed and name your pet wrong? Like one letter..

Oh no! Poor baby!

:p

[mol]

*mouses over Nighthawks pet*
Oh no! Poor baby!

:p
open up a bank account...and I will send you a little cash. :)

[Tzaolunyin]

I'm not sure I like the idea of money being tied to posting........seems like it might encourage Just Silly to expand out of control and envelop all the other forums! :D

[Mithrea]

open up a bank account...and I will send you a little cash. :)

awww isn't he sweet!

Okay, I made a pet, but I have no clue what to do with it. I opened a bank account but I have no clue what to do with it. I read the entire thread and I read the FAQ and have come to one conclusion. . . I am dumb :P

[Klucky]

I think I'm just going to let my pet die. Damn you, Charolette! Can't you do anything right?! :lol:

-Klucky

[Nighthawk]

I'm not sure I like the idea of money being tied to posting........seems like it might encourage Just Silly to expand out of control and envelop all the other forums! :D
we do not all post in just silly... Some of post all over. I am not sure how it could change JS to take over, their are loose rules to follow

[mol]

I'm not sure I like the idea of money being tied to posting........seems like it might encourage Just Silly to expand out of control and envelop all the other forums! :D
Oh no...dont worry about that. Just Silly is for quantity posting in all forms. the admins will watch the forums to make sure it doesnt get out of hand.

[mol]

we do not all post in just silly... Some of post all over. I am not sure how it could change JS to take over, their are loose rules to follow
No...he is talking about people posting sill stuff in serious threads all over the board to get more money.

[mol]

awww isn't he sweet!

Okay, I made a pet, but I have no clue what to do with it. I opened a bank account but I have no clue what to do with it. I read the entire thread and I read the FAQ and have come to one conclusion. . . I am dumb :P
Well, you can go to the arena and have him fight. Or you can just buy him stuff and keep him fed and happy. Its up to you. :)

[Faery-Wings]

I have a bank account opened already- so yay!! Money money money! :money:

Holly your not dumb- I am trying to figure it all out myself too. But having fun trying.

[Mithrea]

I picked a snail. There isn't much for snails is there?

[Mithrea]

Holly your not dumb- I am trying to figure it all out myself too. But having fun trying.

Heehee. I have to go pick up my mom soon and I'm terrified that Slippy will die while I'm gone :lol:

[mol]

I picked a snail. There isn't much for snails is there?
Sure there is...some of the stuff is for all petz. I will be adding more items. Actually...I need some help with item suggestions. Perhaps we need a dang Petz forum down by the site room. :p

[GryphonGirl]

Love me, love my kitty?

[Mithrea]

Sure there is...some of the stuff is for all petz. I will be adding more items. Actually...I need some help with item suggestions. Perhaps we need a dang Petz forum down by the site room. :p

Ahhh okay. :lol: ANOTHER forum?! hehehee maybe it should be a forum inside the site room ;)

[Nighthawk]

No...he is talking about people posting sill stuff in serious threads all over the board to get more money.
that is why I said there were loose rules.. you know, don't be an idiot in the altar and stuff..

[Isil Darkmoon]

*Giggle* this is just GOOFY

[Tzhebee]

WHat happens when you are typing challenhed and name your pet wrong? Like one letter..
Now that you got the money honey, I gots the time...n/m WAIT. I mean, now that you have enough funds, you can go to Petz - Store and change your pets name...but it costs a pretty penny! :D

[Sylvan]

Is there anywhere that we can see exactly what we'd be getting if we spent 500 on the name enhancements in the "Store"?
Like what exactly would a glow look like, a shadow, a wave...

[Calyx]

How do you get more money? I only have 5 and I am stupid! :foh: :wah:

[Klucky]

How do you get more money? I only have 5 and I am stupid! :foh: :wah:

*points* I think you have 81, actually. :)

-Klucky

[Calyx]

*points* I think you have 81, actually. :)

-Klucky

Wow, how'd that happen?
And, if you create a pet and then let it die, do you get to create another one after that?

[Nighthawk]

Now that you got the money honey, I gots the time...n/m WAIT. I mean, now that you have enough funds, you can go to Petz - Store and change your pets name...but it costs a pretty penny! :D
don't sing that with a twang, do you?? Oh shoot.. I just wanted one letter changed because I am dumb.. *Oh mol, mol, can you help me??*

[WolfMoon]

I got a kitty....named Spronglie.

...Spronglie?! Who came up with these? ;)

[Klucky]

Wow, how'd that happen?
And, if you create a pet and then let it die, do you get to create another one after that?

Yeah. And look, now you have 185. :lol:

-Klucky

[Mithrea]

How do you get more money? I only have 5 and I am stupid! :foh: :wah:

Mine seems to go up and down sporadically. Yeah I bought stuff, yeah I'm posting, but it still seems to be random. . . :lol: Then again . . .

[Faery-Wings]

I just came back here to post a question and darn it, I forgot what i was going to ask.
*stares at screen hoping to remember*

Oh! Yeah!
Is there any strategy to the battles? Or do you just attack until someone wins?

[mol]

Mine seems to go up and down sporadically. Yeah I bought stuff, yeah I'm posting, but it still seems to be random. . . :lol: Then again . . .
Well, now sometimes you will *find* money in certain threads here and there.

[Tzhebee]

don't sing that with a twang, do you?? Oh shoot.. I just wanted one letter changed because I am dumb.. *Oh mol, mol, can you help me??*

You're not dumb, sweety, just male...and you can't help that! :lol:

OH, I was Kidding! Geez!!!!! :D

[mol]

I just came back here to post a question and darn it, I forgot what i was going to ask.
*stares at screen hoping to remember*

Oh! Yeah!
Is there any strategy to the battles? Or do you just attack until someone wins?
No, there are strategies to be figured out. Because you can defend and counter, etc. Also, there are going to be lots of weapons and shields to buy soon.

[Mithrea]

Well, now sometimes you will *find* money in certain threads here and there.

Oh really now? Now I think I did *find* some once :lol:

[Kalika]

:lol:

Good idea...

[Faery-Wings]

No, there are strategies to be figured out. Because you can defend and counter, etc. Also, there are going to be lots of weapons and shields to buy soon.
Nooo!
I am no good at strategy.
Think anyone will be willing to sell cheats in the Petz Store? :eyebrow:

[mol]

Is there anywhere that we can see exactly what we'd be getting if we spent 500 on the name enhancements in the "Store"?
Like what exactly would a glow look like, a shadow, a wave...
Nope...not really. :) Sorry!

[Nantonos]

I'm not sure I like the idea of money being tied to posting........seems like it might encourage Just Silly to expand out of control and envelop all the other forums! :D

You mean, like endless karma tag-team threads and 'whoopee I got to 3000 posts' don't happen already?

[Boogins]

You mean, like endless karma tag-team threads and 'whoopee I got to 3000 posts' don't happen already?

I just talk too much. Sorry.

However, I do have a question re: the petz. How on earth does one actually feed one's pet? I've got food for my kitty, but he's 1% hungry. Doesn't he like the food?

[Nantonos]

Nope...not really. :) Sorry!

Well, what you see will depend entirely on whether you use MSIE for Windows or not. If not, then apart from changes in color you won't see anything else.

Hoping MW does not become like N**P**s in that respect of being an IE-only site. :sick: which would be short-sighted and interfere with the primary purpose of the site in my not-so-humble opinion :)

[Laurelei]

Awwww! *huggles Kyle* Meet my cyberdog! He's my little wishful-thinking pal 'till I get a dog in real life!

[mol]

All right. Lets not get into this kind of thing here. I dont write for IE...I dont write for Netscrape. I dont write for any of 'em. Browser wars can go down to the Tech forum. Just because the feature is an IE specific thing, doesnt mean it is written for IE. You just need IE to take advantage of that feature, sorry, not dissing on any other browser. I think we have done a good job to make this place as cross platform friendly as possible and we will continue to do so.

Again, take the browser wars discussion to the tech forum. Not in here.

[Nantonos]

I just talk too much. Sorry.

However, I do have a question re: the petz. How on earth does one actually feed one's pet? I've got food for my kitty, but he's 1% hungry. Doesn't he like the food?

Only 1% hungry means a long time to next dinner time. 99% hungry is when you need to rush out and buy food.

[Klucky]

Hey, does anybody else get the idea that mol is subliminally promoting animal abuse? "Ah, yes, get an animal and then MAKE MONEY OFF OF IT BY THROWING IT INTO TOURNAMENTS WHERE IT CAN DIE!!!" :rotfl:

He is just not hungry yet. You can buy food in the shops. Particularly, the Feedbag. :) Then just go and manage your pet. Click on 'Use' item in your inventory to feed him.

[DragonsChest]

I adopted a Kitty, named her Snarf! We don't have to battle our critters, do we?

I won't. I'll just make sure the Chicken Abuse Agency (CAA) keeps an eye on you. ;)

[Tzhebee]

Hey, does anybody else get the idea that mol is subliminally promoting animal abuse? "Ah, yes, get an animal and then MAKE MONEY OFF OF IT BY THROWING IT INTO TOURNAMENTS WHERE IT CAN DIE!!!" :rotfl:

-Klucky

Me thinks this is *exactly* why there are no chicken pets! :lol: :lol:

[Nantonos]

All right. Lets not get into this kind of thing here. I dont write for IE...I dont write for Netscrape. I dont write for any of 'em.

Not sure if I should respond here or there....

No, you write for standards, not for browsers.


Browser wars can go down to the Tech forum.

I have zero interest in arguing the merits of one browser over another. I do have an interest in MW being widely available, and would be sad to see it become IE only.


Just because the feature is an IE specific thing, doesnt mean it is written for IE. You just need IE to take advantage of that feature, sorry, not dissing on any other browser. I think we have done a good job to make this place as cross platform friendly as possible and we will continue to do so.

Oh, I agree. Its precisely because the majority of this site is so nicely cross-platform and cross-browser that I was alarmed to see that one could buy 'glow' and 'blur' and other MSIE/win-only features.


Again, take the browser wars discussion to the tech forum. Not in here.

I am not interested in browser wars in the slightest.

I didnt code those in...that stuff came with the stock code. I am going to go a different route with it eventually.

[Tzaolunyin]

Well, now sometimes you will *find* money in certain threads here and there.

How does the finding money thing work? Do you have to post on the thread? Or just view it? And is it random if there's money in that thread, or can you set an amount of money to be in that thread?

[mol]

It is totally random and its only on viewing threads, etc. I think it will send a popup. But, if you have a popup killer you might not ever notice it. I dont set where the money is...its just...around. :p

[MerrisHawk]

Kewl toyz!
Thanks Mol! :floating:

[Isil Darkmoon]

Popup killers do mask the 'found money' popup. I haven't gotten any message but I've still found random $ about.

[SunMoonStarLight]

My puppys name is Lynus!! :) Everyone take care of thier buddies!!

Excellent news.

[Tzaolunyin]

MOL!!!!

I bought a wave effect from the store, but I don't see it yet! Help me!!

[Tzhebee]

Maybe it's just me....but whenever I see the Turtle pet, I *swear* it says Petz Monkey instead of money....but it's only the turtle! Oye.

[mol]

MOL!!!!

I bought a wave effect from the store, but I don't see it yet! Help me!!
I need to disable those! DOH! It looks like crap. Sell it back. :)

[sweet nothings]

hahaha I like um but I wont adopt yet...

[Tzaolunyin]

Phooey. And I wanted to be the first with a nifty name! That's what I get for my impatience... :)

[mol]

Phooey. And I wanted to be the first with a nifty name! That's what I get for my impatience... :)
Sorry man, like it was said before...those are not really great enhancements because sometimes they work...sometimes they dont. :) I really only wanted to have color changes, pet name, type, etc changes availiable. I will try and fix your username.

[Tzaolunyin]

How do I sell it back?

Edit: Oh! Thank you! {{{MOL!}}}

I will never be impatient again! I promise!

....oh, what's that shiny thing....?

[mol]

[mol]

I will also credit your money back. :)

You need to open a bank account.

[WtchyChick13]

I haven't read this whole thread so forgive me if it has been asked before but......Mol........

What the hell is your av man??????? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:




My snail's name is Mon Chi-Chi and for those of you who are 80's people, you'll understand why! :lol: :lol: :lol:

:eek:

Not those! The steroids! :foh:

:lol: :lol: :lol:




I gotta go cook dinner. :dis:

[Mithrea]

Slippy busted it when we battled!

/nod

[DragonsChest]

How do I let my Snarf play with other critters?

[Cinnamon Girl]

Slippy busted it when we battled!

/nod

Why, I oughta ... :uzi:

[Mithrea]

Why, I oughta ... :uzi:

That's a big gun for such a tiny snail!

[Cinnamon Girl]

That's a big gun for such a tiny snail!

Well apparently he's got Matrix type moves, since Willy kept missing him! I need a big one! :tongueout

[Mithrea]

Well apparently he's got Matrix type moves, since Willy kept missing him! I need a big one! :tongueout

She's a snail! She didn't move at all! Willy just kept missing :lol:

[Cinnamon Girl]

She's a snail! She didn't move at all! Willy just kept missing :lol:

She just moved so fast, it looked like she was being still. :shift:

[Mithrea]

She just moved so fast, it looked like she was being still. :shift:

Like a humminbird?

Floats like a butterfly, sting like a bee! or something like that . . .

[Linx]

This is cool. But it is something more to keep me from doing my um... ahem responsibilities. What will I ever do now?

I don't want to battle mine, I just want to love it and care for it. Hopefully it will not die on me between work, school, kids and home... LOL.

Meet Stimpy (named after my real life Chi Chi) I was going to name him Filbert, but I have to find my real life Filbert first, and he has not yet come to me. In time, in time.

Oh hey, if our pet dies, do we lose all our money associated with that pet as well? Or does our bank account hold onto it, and it roll over to our next pet? Can't you tell I am expecting my life to cause me to neglect mine? Crossing my fingers, I can keep up! :)

[Mithrea]

:) Good Question

*waves* to Stimpy!

[Linx]

Oh, I also meant to say that, I think a forum, or subforum for the Petz is a good idea. I know I am still trying to figure him out. And as new things are added, there are bound to be more questions. Having all the answers in one place, will prevent people from having to repeat themselves as much, and make it easier to find the answer to your question, which may have already been asked. ... Did I make sense?

Hey I think I just found money! Whahoo!

[Mithrea]

Yup that makes sense. Especially since yahoos like me keep burying questions trying to get enough money for steroids :P

[Khaelo]

1) How do I check on my pet's wellbeing without locating one of my posts?
2) Is there special spider food? Will the spider eat the snail food? Will the spider eat the scooby snacks?
3) When I play with other people's pets, is that what generates the "Your pet had some fun" PM? Or is that when other people play with my pet? I've been randomly playing with pets that look sad -- is that filling people's PM boxes with happy pet messages?

[Fairywolf]

Do we need to set up a thread to help the petz to cross over the rainbow bridge when they pass?? Like Klucky's has already?? :rollingla

[kewlhippiechick]

Hey! Everyone...I finally got a Petz! His name is Puck! Ok, hope I can can get this thing to live..

[Klucky]

Do we need to set up a thread to help the petz to cross over the rainbow bridge when they pass?? Like Klucky's has already?? :rollingla

:razz: :lol:

Hey, I think she's a nice little decor for my name.

-Klucky

[Khaelo]

Klucky's Charolette isn't dead yet, but she isn't looking so good. She won't play. :(

(BTW, I figured out the PM situation. Playing with a pet deposits a private message in the pet owner's box. Apparently, Woolly Bully is getting to know more people around here than I am. :T)

Edit: kewlhippiechick, there is a snail named SloMo up for adoption in the Adoption Center. Is he yours?

[WynnJera]

I really Love this ... thx Mol

[Fairywolf]

:razz: :lol:

1) Use the menu that says Petz, or if that doesn't work use this link
http://www.mysticwicks.com/profile.php?do=inventory
and click on Click here

2) No idea, but my cat eats scooby snacks so ...

3) When others play with yours and yes, it generates pms.

[pawnman]

Indeed, a dedicated petz forum would be good.

I can see that this is aimed at increasing conversation, as now people will post in every thread they can to earn money (That's what I'm doing right now, as a matter of fact!)

[DragonsChest]

My Snarf has already passed, as I sent her into the arena unprepared and she lost her challenge. Guess I need to find out how to battle before sending her in again. Then again, if she's "gone", I guess I have to get a new one, don't I? WAH!!!!!

Wahoo. He lives in my inventory and eats crackers. Thank you!
Edit: Spiders will also eat scooby snacks.

[Isil Darkmoon]

Snarf has 0 health... she's not dead yet. If you haven't healed and fed her within about 4 days, then she'll be dead-dead.

Losing a battle automatically means your health goes to 0, but losing a battle alone doen'st kill your pet. It's when you neglect the poor, sweet little thing AFTERWARDS... *sniffle*

[Gareth]

Look at my poor dog.
Please, be kind. :)

Not dead-dead yet? Yay!!! I guess if I post a bit more in the next day or two, then I'll be able to afford medicine to make her healthy again?

Do we have access to Petz Medicare here? I can't afford medicine yet. :lol:

[Isil Darkmoon]

Actually, you can :) crackers are like 5 points and steroid shots are pretty cheap too... 15 I think? Looks like you found some money around the site, as it says you've got 58 now

[DragonsChest]

Hang on, Snarf-baby! Momma's working on gettin' mo money!

[kewlhippiechick]

Well...NOW we need a Petz cemetary, huh? Oh, Mol!!!!!

[Isil Darkmoon]

And you can up the pleasure counter by playing with other pets...


WOW that sounds wrong! :bigredblu:

[MoonDust]

Lmao!

did we cover this already? Why are all the face different?

[Isil Darkmoon]

The faces are generated depending on a combination of health, happiness, and pleasure bars.

If the pet is at 100% for all of them, you get the tongue out happy look; if they're all at 0% you get the X eyes.

Other than that, there are a lot inbetween that seem to vary.

[MoonDust]

ahhh


I got it

[Nantonos]

And you can up the pleasure counter by playing with other pets...

WOW that sounds wrong! :bigredblu:

Oh there are worse ones waiting to be deployed. Especially for those of us with cats for pets.

[kewlhippiechick]

Like I needed another vice...

[Lai]

Looks like I'm going to have to post more than once in a blue moon if I want to get one of those critters. :lol:

[WynnJera]

Look at my poor dog.
Please, be kind. :)

talk about tuck tailed :lol:

[Sylvan]

I had a boatload of money. I put it all in the bank. I decided I wanted to color my name blue. I went to the bank to withdraw 500. It said I had 10 on me. I withdrew 500, effectively putting 510 in my "pocket". I bought my color. Now the bank says I have so-much still in the bank, yet in my "pocket", I'm at -490??
Howzat happen?

edit: negative number changes alot, due to posting and "finding" money and adopted petz, but am still in the negative..

[MoonDust]

I have no clue. Mol?



Anyone wanna quick battle?

[kewlhippiechick]

Lemme get done with school work and I'll have my petz have a go at yours!

[Gareth]

My dog looks happy.
Such a strange creature.
His name is JailBait!!

[MoonDust]

[morrigen]

Whoo! I get up in the morning...log on....and we have PETS!!!!!

*does happy dance and heads over to adopt a pet*

[broodingseeker]

I just want to say again that I love the Petz thing! Its my new favorite thing to do, buy things for my pet, yay!
