Oh man, some of those pet colors are really nice. Not sure I am the type to gamble though, more like hoard and quest.

[-the-Meddler] Some potions are Cash Shop-only, others pop up in the Token Shop, and two are mildly annoying but worth the struggle and that's the Glade and Harvest potions.

I have a Glade Tigrean. There are so many pet options, I've changed my original pet several times already in only 2 months.

[-the-Meddler] Lol there are tons, not counting Experiment pets :D

I checked out some of the experiment pets! Interesting looking animals. Do you battle with your pets? Do they have "jobs"?

[-the-Meddler] Very lol. And yes! Some events have plot-relevant battles and if you can at least put in a few hits, you'll be included for participation. Jobs can earn extra sP, plus it's an incentive to train your pet. On top of that, battle opponents can have their own special loot. They're usually pretty cool items too.

Oh man, now I have to work up my nerve to battle. It's not the type of thing that I'm generally into but I eventually did that type of thing at Gaia so maybe I will get around to it here. Exclusive items usually interest me. ;)

I've seen those random holiday challengers! Is that what you mean?

[-the-Meddler] Sort of! The holiday challengers have their own items and come around for their respective holiday/period (like Ice King appearing around Luminaire time). If there's a plot, there's either a boss fight somewhere along the line or mini-boss fights and one big fight. Battling isn't everyone's cup of tea or everyone's favorite site feature but there are people dedicated to it. It takes time to up your pet's tier, which determines what weapons they can/can't use.

Oh I was sure certain users would be devoted to it, like at Flight Rising or other places. I'm not sure it's for me but I will try to take a shot at the guys who challenge me (I seem to remember a carrot at one point? idk).

[-the-Meddler] Yep lol. Cranky Carrot. Its a Fireside challenger iirc.

I think so, it was when we were throwing stuff into that fire in Veta. I should have tried it....

[-the-Meddler] It'll come back around later this year! It always does. :) It gives you time also to work on a nettle pet, which is what I'm trying to do. /sob

Ooooo what's a nettle pet? o:

[-the-Meddler] LOL autocorrect! That was supposed to be battle, oh my god :,D

LOL I thought maybe it was a plant-type pet! Hahaha!

Oh hey, I thought to tell you that if you have anything you feel is important stored at Syndrone, like rp threads or stories, you might want to go copy them and store them elsewhere.

[-the-Meddler] XD Nah, I got autocorrected. Note to self, do not use the forums immediately after waking up.

Nope, just avatars. Closing down for good? :/

LOL...

As far as I can tell it's going that way. The new owners haven't come online nor answered a message from me in months. I can only assume that when the server stops being paid it's goodnight.

[-the-Meddler] I'm surprised but I'm not surprised?? Like... They came on for maybe a few announcements, then GOODBYE see ya never. I also never heard of them as users prior.XD

I honestly never heard of them as users myself. They had BIG plans though! And did nothing, I am so embarrassed being the last remaining staff member....

[-the-Meddler] I noticed 😞 And I'm sorry that happened to you! D: I wish the ooooooold staff would come back but I totally understand krank and everyone else being done.
