Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) First Post — Rules, Explained Second Post — Forms, Bans Third Post — Influencers Fourth Post — Banners Absolutely no keeping Hatchlings being Influenced by you unless the Influencee has not responded within a day! If your Hatchling is not returned, neither I or TJ09 will be held responsible. Do not try to contact TJ about a Hatchling thief. He will not help. You have been informed of the risks! Use Messages to communicate. Do not post on the thread unless you are donating Pinks, requesting Influences, or reporting Influences. You must report Influences using the Influence Report Form. It will earn you a ban from the thread if you keep the Hatchling, unless the owner says you may, or if they do not contact you after a day. You may set up Teleport links with free Pinks for people to take. Eggs to be influenced must be under five days; this gives a bit of insurance that you won't be Egg-Sitting. Return Eggs as soon as they hatch. There is no reason to keep them longer. If the Influencee does not respond within one day, then the Influencer may keep the Hatchling. The Influencer is not in any way obliged to return the Hatchling, but they may if they wish to do so. Please do not edit your post with the Influence Report Form. Make a new post unless it will cause Double-Posting. Influencers may also Incubate Eggs to be Influenced so that they may hatch faster. Here's how the thread works. This is a thread in which Influencers may gift Pinks or Influence Eggs that Influencees give them until they gender. The Hatchling will then be traded back, Influenced properly, for payment or for free. Here is an example of what could happen — Person 1: I have a Cave-Born Nebula egg that I want to be female. Influence it for me and you can have this nice-lineaged Red egg! Person 2 Messages Person 1 and says they will Influence the Egg. A Teleport is set up to Person 2 with the Nebula. Person 2 Influences the Egg and then hatches it. One of the people sets up a trade with the Female Nebula and Red Egg and they will swap, or the Nebula will be gifted. Make sense? Have at it!

Posted March 24, 2014 Also, not sure if you intended it, but you have two posted forms for influencers and they pretty much look the same to me, unless I'm really tired at the moment. Might I suggest 'influencees' instead of 'influentees?' Otherwise, sounds useful Share this post Link to post
Posted April 2, 2014 I am seeing a lot of potential problems with this. Member A gives member B an egg to influence. Member B keeps it instead. Nothing can be done, as TJ won't enforce your " No keeping hatchlings rule". Once an egg is hatched, the gender is determined. There is no reason for someone to hold on to it until it genders, and it makes it less likely that you would get it back, as the hatchling may grow up waiting to be picked back up. --- Your best bet would be to obtain your own pinks, and influence your own eggs. That keeps your eggs safely on your own scroll. There are a lot of places to go to obtain pink eggs. Many of us breed out pinks and drop the offspring into the AP so someone else can grab them as lower time eggs. I can normally pick up 5-10 pinks in the AP each week, most of which I give away after I influence and hatch them.

Posted April 15, 2014 I agree with Lucy that this can have a lot of potential problems. But, I think the same goes for a lot of things. And, honestly, I think a lot of people here are more trustworthy than we give credit for...Take a look at how many people follow-up on IOUs for example. This is more of a trust thing than anything else, but I also really like the idea. I also think that maybe first post should include something that says neither TJ nor you can be held responsible for any eggs that are not returned - and that those who are reported not returning eggs will receive a warn/blacklist. I'll sign up for a influencer ~ Forum Name: MissNoShame Will you influence for free?: Yes PM Link: PM Me Share this post Link to post

I also trust the donors here, so I'm not really worried I'd also like to comment how this would be really useful. Sure, there are lots of pink eggs out there, but once they actually matures and are able to influence, the egg you wanted to influence probably grew up already. So yes, I support your idea!

Posted June 6, 2014 If I may suggest, someone should make a banner for this thread. It's a nice way for the DC community to work together a bit more. I know I am always in a pink pickle when I find nice dragons and mine are resting from influencing the eggs prior. Share this post Link to post
