No worries! This helped show something problematic that would have had to be addressed anyway. Based on my experiences bringing up things like this before (I left a site before because some people wouldn't stop tossing around the c-word, and I was seen as the one in the wrong for even bringing it up) I was worried about even saying anything.

It makes for a nice change to get support. Thank you, , , and .

oh, that's a good theory. i didn't remember how he's unlocked so i checked laurey's thread: "randomly unlocked while searching the pumpkin patch during morostide." so maybe jaxon cursed him because he was hanging around the pumpkin patch too much? haha

Don't worry about it, it's not your fault ❤


I originally wasn't going to say anything either so I'm glad you brought it up first. I know the c-word is used casually in some countries, but I've never heard the w-word used with anything other than negative connotations about women. It made me extremely uncomfortable seeing it on the forums, even if it wasn't directed at a person x_x But I'm glad it was all just a misunderstanding and hopefully it gets removed from that guide.

Armored Egg x18 Lightweight Egg x18 Spiked Egg x17 Potion Egg x17 Magic Egg x18

each time i do an egg hunt, i feel like i'm missing challengers... i also want to keep going since we'll (hopefully) be getting more challengers soon but the rest of my tier 3s need AP first.

i feel spoiled; getting to fight with the quartet that can use aftershocks and gift of the forj just feels like a much better time than the bunch stuck with just divine denizhen p;

1P Loot tracker - Collaboration Project should be up-to-date if you feel you need to double check.

And I know what you mean! Battling is a struggle the first time around and all of your following pets have such an easy time :P

Whoracle's never been a problem before, so unless staff tells me otherwise, I don't see a reason to change it. For the record, it's been there since I took over the guide from Echo (who has since left the site for unknown reasons). It never fazed me, so I just left it. Not like we're calling her the C word or anything that offensive. =/ shrugs

i should've gotten all of them; i have the ones that drop stat eggs marked on my own spreadsheet. i just get thrown off by the number of spiked and potion eggs 8)

but yeah! you struggle to earn the cool stuff and then everyone that uses it after just cruises through their fights, it's great haha

[edit] i mean it's your thread so ultimately you have the final say, but when i was first getting into battling and reading All The Stuff, i thought that bit was kind of off-putting. it seemed very out of place with the tone of rest of the content? idk that's just my 2¢

Well, I'm up for a new nickname for her, if we can come up with one that we all like?

Calling a character a 'whoracle' for not giving you the stats you want is very bizarre. Imo, it's just as derogatory against women as the c-word. Because it's been there before doesn't mean it can't be removed now, but if you don't see a problem with it then I'm not sure what else I can say.

I need to get back to battling with my second pet. I have gotten 4/?? Normal easy challengers finished up to 200. I guess I can whittle down that list this weekend.

I'd vote in favor of removing it. It's clearly an outdated nickname anyway, given that not a single person remembers hearing it before. And we don't need to come up with a different nickname. Everyone just calls her Oracle. I've never seen any different.

(Plus, it's not really in any good taste. No one here is arguing to keep it.)

No different than calling any other characters by some other name, like calling Shinwa a sea cow or a bitch lol.

I'm sorry, but I don't agree with your guys' stance. I can't even really explain my perspective without further pissing people off, so I'm not getting into it because it has no business here in this thread. Whether that nickname is only there because that's what Echo called her or someone long ago found it to be an interesting play on words and made it up as a joke, I don't know. I never questioned it because it never bothered me personally, and that's generally how I roll in life.

We're just gonna have to agree to disagree. Unless staff tells me otherwise, my stance remains solid.
