I try to keep up on token collecting but hunting banners are really inconvenient because I'm often too busy to sit down and go hunting through numerous pages but excluding that, I have really been loving the items this year!
And have quite a few favorites pets already. :3 Can't wait to see what comes next!

I'm predictable, so it's easily these:

I had to start a hoard of them immediately, ahah. My minimum goal is 30, but I'd love to be able to get 50 eventually.
I'm at 17 now, so I doubt getting 30 will be a problem. If I go for 50 will depend on what I think of the remaining releases. If there's another hoard coming... well, hah.

I'm also a huge fan of the rune circle items.
Honestly, they're probably my favourite ever Halloween item. I spent so much time last night finding pets to match them up with :D

They're perfect!

There is nothing CS staff can do about what people say offsite; they can only hand out punishment for bullying if it happens on-site (including if someone were to link an offsite page about it on CS itself), and they don't have the power to close down someone's blog. (Tumblr staff probably could, but they're... yknow. Tumblr staff. I admire people who bother trying.)
They don't have authority over the things that people say on tumblr etc, so the most they can do is to keep an eye on whether or not anything does happen to get posted on CS.

(As a side note, DD is a regular user and not a staff member, so they do not have the power to discipline members, and sketchi is an artist, meaning that while they are a staff member, they don't have mod powers.^^)


I am aware of that but Da Dwarf knows the other staff and she does most of the work anyway. Sketchi is a artist yes, but she is a staff member meaning Tess might listen to her. Even if staff on Tumblr won't due it, it should be reported anyway so there is a reported incident. Chicken Smoothie being a ally of this could help.

You don't need to be friends with / personally know the staff for them to listen to you about a problem. If you are having a problem on CS and report it, you will be taken seriously and the same procedure will be followed regardless of who you are. Every report and help ticket is seen and handled; whether staff know you or not makes absolutely no difference. (And in the case of bullying, the person being bullied should be the one to report it anyway, as someone who is not directly involved often doesn't know the full story and doesn't have access to private content staff may need to see, such as PMs or trades.)

But in regards to Tumblr blogs or other off-site content, I'm afraid Zel is right. The blogs are not affiliated in any way with CS and so there is unfortunately nothing CS staff can do about it unless the bullying extends to or is linked on CS, and then staff are only able to deal with what's happening on-site, not moderate or close down the blog itself. You'd have to contact the Tumblr staff if you want anything done about it.


Edit - Ah, I'm so sorry, Archer. I must have gone blind and somehow didn't see your post. My apologies. xo

Anyway, I'm super excited for the Halloween event! ^o^ Spooky-raveny-horse is probably my favorite so far, too. <3 And this one is soooo cuuuute with the little squirrel, oh my gosh! *squeeeeee* Image

Yeah, the reason report handling is slow is because of the sheer number of people, not because you don't know Tess personally.

As ZEL mentioned, CS has no power over what occurs on Tumblr. In addition, that tumblr page is not a part of CS and it contains a lot of negativity that will only serve to hurt feelings so further discussion of it will be considered off topic. I understand the desire to vent, but it may be best to continue any discussion of the topic in private message. ^^'


I will not say this again, any further comments about the tumblr topic need to be taken to private message.

Just want to put out there that a) i am not staff b) i follow the same steps anyone follows when reporting (little triangle ! or on someone profile) and c) i don't have a way in with staff c: Yes, i do have some friends that are staff, they were friends before they became staff. The only 'work' i do is mostly the outcomes threads and my guides, which are all volunteer things and not something staff has asked me to do or anything. i just do that cause i like it myself :) When people pm me for advice i tell them which steps to undertake, how to report efficiently and what to provide to make it a swift case for the mods, that's all i (or anyone not staff) can and should do.


looping back to the event, i love the accessibility of it. i no longer have the time or the need to go for a banner limit but so far ive managed to buy everything and still have 60 tokens to spare. i'll be able to finish my collection and still probably get all the extras.



How many bat cages did you buy? i got 8 but am thinking i might need more haha we usually get what,, 4? 5? outcomes from there O:

I have 5 cages, though I might buy 5 more when the final outcomes are released. I try to buy enough to get all outcomes.
When a box has 3 outcomes I buy it 3 times, then I try to swap the double for a missed outcome.
When the event is over I go shopping to trade in for outcomes I can't find to swap for or to get pets/items I like.
I never trade/auction off my tokens. Tempting though, if you look at some auctions...
But I prefer to trade them in for the stuff I need.
