Considering all these unwritten rules for the trading hub, I'm almost afraid to ask for unwritten rules on dragon names. The topmost adults on my scroll are named this:

	also called olympe on the boards
	I breed most stuff on request
	Feel free to send me a PM
	xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

 

I've had these names for years now, and I'm almost afraid to ask: Is this even allowed right now???

As far as I know that's fine - someone else asked the same thing here. But it's a good question and I'm kinda hoping TJ will pop in on it.

 

Definitely fine:

Thanks for the clarification, TJ!

Thanks a bunch for the pancakes!😄

I never knew that one existed.  Cracked right up!😄✌

Check the name of the pancake's owner... The name got misspelled so often that TJ actually did this.

Since you seem to enjoy the tiny leetle secrets of the site, try this one:

And you've probably already achieved 100 uses of "Splash", too, haven't you?

Are we allowed to put a link in our sig to a totally non-adoptables-related website, as long as it's totally PG? I know lots of people link to stuff like wishlist spreadsheets, or their accounts on other adoptables sites, but what about, say, a book cataloging site?

[Aalbiel]

According to the rules, this is the list of things your posts & sig cannot contain or link to:

 

Quote

• Adult material (Nudity, pornography, or explicit sexual acts)
• Extreme violence
• Viruses, spyware, or malware
• Illegal downloads/piracy
• Accounts of illegal activities
• Threatening, harassing, or obscene content.
• Swearing/censor bypassing (links are allowed if a disclaimer is included)

 

I'm pretty sure a link to a PG website is just fine, as long as it's not the website where you post detailed accounts of your bank heists to taunt the police

Seems like the Lagmonster is having a field day this morning. Anyone else?

Off and on.

[Terces]

Experiencing some pretty bad lag as well.

This might be related to the lag monster, but is anyone else seeing eggs not hatching that really ought to be? I have an egg that is fully open and looks ready to go, just hit under 4 day, has more than enough views and clicks, but instead of hatching when it hit sub-4, it got sick. That's super weird, right? I ended up fogging it to be safe but I've never seen that happen before.

What kind of egg is it? Sunsets/Sunrises can't hatch outside of the correct timeframes. Or if it's a prize, or Zyu, it could just be stubborn! Not all eggs are equal in hatching.

With those stats, it seems to be a Sun* egg. Just wait another 32 minutes to hatch it (will be Sunrise then).

The sickness when it hit below 4 was weird and something I've never seen but maybe that's just the dragon's way of saying, "I. DON'T. WANNA!!!!"

 

Well, dragon, two of us can be stubborn. I'll just sit here until you're ready.

Does /lineage/(code) no longer work in the biomes?

Stopped working a few days ago. TJ nixed it so that you can no longer snoop on an egg's actual nature before grabbing it.

Damn, but oh well.

Can someone explain to me how to make Siyats purple?

Hatch them at the age of 5 days or older. If you incubate, that means you will have to wait until the countdown is below 1 day, otherwise below 2 days is enough.

Don't forget to influence on time (before they get down to 3 days or less)!

Don't incubate the egg. Allow it's timer to get down to under 2 days before hatching.

I allow mine to get to the last cracking stage, then fog until it gets to the correct time and it will hatch almost instantly when unfogged without needing to be ERed. Or you can fog it, let the timer go below 2 days, unfog and ER.

If you have incubated it then you just need to let the timer go down to less than 1 day.

Thanks, Ruby Eyes!  Thanks, purplehaze!

 

Much appreciated.  I was so confused.

[Iside]

Probably a stupid question, but how can you edit your forum signature? If I go to my profile I only see the edit profile option

[Wiz]

In Account Settings there is a little drop down menu called settings area. It's in there.

Found, thank you!

Anyway to find out if I am blocked by another person on the forum?  I sent a PM to someone with links to gifted eggs; however that person hasn't read the PM for almost 2 days now.  But at the mean time, that same person had been on the forum posting in various trade threads.  I am trying to find out if this person didn't get notification, missed the notification or what.

[Fuzzbucket]

If I have a trade up, can someone make an OFFER if I am egg-locked ? (If I got an offer I would dump some stuff, but if I don't, I won't, you see !)

Try tagging them in the Random Scroll Help thread. purplehaze and I once had the strange issue that her messages did not get to my inbox (also with a gift) and it took her several tries before I finally got her message. Her messages (the ones that I did NOT get) showed as unread by me as well. This forum seems rather buggy, to say the least.

Yes. You just cannot accept before you unlock.

They probably missed the notification - I was in a similar position as you last month, I just messaged them again about it and asked if they saw my PM. They hadn't, but when I alerted them a second time they picked up my gifts and were grateful. I believe if someone has actually blocked you then you can't send a message to them at all, but I might be mistaken.
