Yes, there will come a point soon when we do well thought out re-releases of older pets.

Honestly, CS has been around a lot longer than us and has a more established user base, and FR is on a whole different level in terms of production value. Plus we've never had a concerted recruitment effort, besides word of mouth and pets in signatures.
That said, we are really excited about Eldemore, and will continue to build on what we've made until it reaches those levels. Right now the only limiting factor is hours in a day.
As for what users can do, make sure to spread the word about us! Especially when events come up. You can also show off your favorite pets in signatures and social media, or mention us to your friends on other pet sites. Every little thing helps!
Aquasplash ~ wrote:3. This ties in to number 2- why have almost all the bazaar pets been legendary recently? Is it due to few members buying baubles?
Yes, there's generally fewer users buying Bazaar pets, so they are becoming more rare. Really though, they would usually trend to the mid-lower side of Ultra Rare, so it was kind of close anyways.

Haha, no. My wife is always coming up with more lore, characters, and legends for Eldemore. If you guys could just hear half the things I've heard...
As for Bastion's Heart and Thorn's Cottage, they will be the likely solution to number 1, but as you can probably tell, they've been on the back burner for a while, giving priority to the other recent features and updates which were more pressing.
