Oops! There was a bug in Adopting a new pet that allowed you to use names that already existed, if you put a space before or after the name you'd like.
We have fixed this bug, and are asking that those of you who've used it to send a sMail to one of the User Administrators as soon as you can with three (3) names you wouldn't mind your pets name changed to. (Please do not contact multiple members of staff about this as it can cause complications and mix-ups.)
In a week, we will be running a script that will automatically rename all of these pets into really ugly combinations of letters and numbers, so please sMail the user admins ASAP!
(This fish gives me nightmares by the way.)

Or you could have told us that it was a glitch in the damn first place to avoid this.

Not technically changing them to our liking though, if we have to choose THREE names... that's a lot, and who knows if we can find another to suit our pets. Why don't you allow these people to keep theirs and just make it impossible after that? I had no idea it was a glitch, I thought it was on purpose that you could put a space.

I'm also wondering about the pets with spaces in the middle of their names, by the way.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I didn't no it was a glitch...-shrug- I will find other names though

Just like birds! (just jokes, nothing serious! ;P)

We are giving you a chance to have your pets names changed, instead of changing them for you.

I am SO glad you guys decided to do this. It was infuriating to see people abuse this glitch and get names that other people worked and waited for, and have them look identical to the real name. x-x A friend of mine had two or three of her pet names copied this way...

If we adopted a pet off the pound, how can we tell if they were named using this glitch or not?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I wouldn't call it cheating the system. It's not like they KNEW they were abusing a glitch, for crying out loud.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh dear. I hope none of the pets I adopted from the pound recently were created this way.
I suppose we'll see. xD

sigh no my dream names!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Yeah this isnt fair... if it wasnt allowed, I wouldnt have done it, and now I cant just... think of new names, because my pets are designed after their names.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

lol all the those new pets give me nightmares shudders not just the fish.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

The fish freaks me out, too. XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

No, unfair would be not telling you before the correction was made, so that you just woke up and had your pet names changed without warning.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, poop. My Aeanoid - Audrey - is going to be weird with another name. puts thinking cap on Never even realised it was a glitch.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, at least we get to change the names.^^ runs off to look for names

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm wondering the same thing, Crystal_Raikou...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

One would assume that anything trying to 'cheat the system' would realise.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Noise - I wouldn't think it was allowed anyway, but if you didn't know - Heck, you do now. xD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

We are letting you know that it's not allowed.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm pretty sure they're just at the start - Because my friend, who I will be hurrying to get her on messenger, used this on two of her pets, I think, oh, and I like the idea of changing it to a combination of numbers and letters. xDD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I don't see why it's such a big problem, anyway. o.o

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

In that case, I suppose the colour is aptly named!
I hope everyone who abused the bug gets on within a week, otherwise there will be a lot of complaining.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This isn't fair. They should have let us know that it wasn't allowed.

Do pets with spaces in the middle of the names count..?
