yeah it was a joke alright but i feel sorry for the younger and inexperienced players who went to repaint their pets..
since this is something that has never happened before, even i was shocked when i first logged in. i thought someone messed up my account as i quickly proceeded to check my stuff. i can definitely understand the grouches going on...it would be better if they have some sort of notification in their news
i don't understand the grouches at all. i mean, all one had to do was look at the news. having a pet change color for ONE DAY doesn't affect the game at all!
i don't feel sorry for those players. if something doesn't seem right, there's a big fat NEWS sign on the sidebar to check. if you look at the sky and it doesn't look right, you check the tv news to see if there's a weather problem. if you walk into school and there are decorations everywhere, you stop and ask someone what's going on. inexperience is no excuse for being dumb. i understand asking on the boards, but abandoning? buying pbs or potions? BEFORE checking the news or asking questions on the boards? that's just pure stupidity.
and getting upset over this joke is getting upset over spilled milk. it'll get cleaned up soon and nothing got hurt, so who cares?
i truly am amazed that people are angry. there's nothing to be angry over! really--what does having a mutant pet for 24 hours change? nothing! i don't even see how it's annoying. how can it be annoying if it doesn't affect a damn thing?
