Mael has won the Pet Spotlight!

Been avoiding the topic, but I just read the story. I liked it and thought it was well written. Good graphic imagery.
I won't say anymore as I will get pissed off with people and wouldn't like to criticise other pets, Squeak.
So we are gonna bitch about everything are we? Well, the next pretty pet that involves loving cupcakes and rainbows will make me want to vomit and I will bitch about it then. The story wasn't bad, people just enjoy different things. There are nicer ways to get your opinion across... there was a warning afterall. If it isn't your cup of tea, Jeebus forbid. I enjoyed it, good job Hearse.

Did the staff...ignore this? Normally I see at least one response by a staff member when people start bitching over a news post. Ah fuck, I can't believe you've done this. B|
Okay... i can take a lot of ugly things (I read the high octane nightmare fuel pages on tvtropes for cryin' out loud) but that...was jsut ugh, that story...ugh ...urk
I liked him better when he was nekkid...
The story was terrible and made me want to barf...I don't care if it had a warning or not the story was bad ![]()
I'm gonna go find some sprite to see if that helps my stomach...
well, there IS a warning so.
in any case, i'm glad they got the story up. ![]()
The story in itself is badly written. I am disgusted that the staff chose it due to the story that said person tried to tell. It is offensive to many and sickening to others with weak stomachs. To many variables makes it a loose cannon.
there is a rule already. Quote:

This means that you cannot display pets that are NOT owned by you on-site and/or claim ownership of a pet that you don't actually own.
Looks like Hearse took down Mael's button sometime today.
story's wicked good though gender is switched at times. That is much better than when was nothing there.
EVERYBODY.
chill out.
I know hearse personally, and honestly, it was a mistake, as i know he had something up at one point. as it got transferred it probably was removed for whatever reason.
is it unfortunate? yes. does it deserve a repick? Maybe, but since it has all the info up now, why does it matter?

Glad to see it has a story now, a very good one. But all this drama llama bsns was not needed.
At least there's a story now.
I kinda knew they wouldn't repick
Oh well.
I have a feeling that there won't be a repick today. :%Pr
There. His two stories are up. He has a plain profile. Now at least if you don't like him, you can complain about HIM and not his lack-of-(insert here).
If they can re-pick, they should.
buuh... buh theres no profile??! I dont... I dont understands! I'm confused and.. and angry! Aaaauueeerrgh! Hurrrrrrrrgh!
I honestly don't see why Mael won. The only profile he ever had up was Siren's, and that was for an application. I vote for a re-pick, please. Mael really doesn't deserve to win this.
This hasn't been fixed yet? :/
Woah!? I can't see the profile or anything O.o everything is missing!? what happened?
I'm wondering if there's going to be any sort of rule about listing a pet on your profile that isnt in your account now. ![]()
Eagerly awaiting the redraw here!
Giving Nightmare Irions a bad name since 4/28/10 ![]()
It's nekid time! ;D
I...I didnt even click on the pet, and thought something was weird. I guess Im wrong, but...I thought Mael had won before. I guess I`ve just seen the pet before. o__o;;
Shame this happens...I still have my fingers crossed for Sir Arthur...
I'd really love to see a staff post explaining why there wasn't a repick, either here or in site feedback.
Ah... I guess I should have read /why/ first.
Alright... O.o That was definitely not a deserved winner. Terrible! I see no story or profile.

Sorry for the blank comment. But people have to understand why some people are upset with this. We understand it is not the staffs fault really, but still it is upsetting when there are those of us who really worked hard on our own pets and have been waiting every day to see if we might win. So when something like this happens, I feel that we are allowed to express our disappointment. Doesn't mean I am pissed at the staff, just that I hope they fix it soon.
wtf is going here Oo
Oh snap! Looks like the world is going to end. A nekkid pet has won teh spotlight. Whatever will we do?
Is this the first time this has happened? I think so. Mistakes happen, random pick is random. But people need to lighten up a little bit. The staff will probably make some change to how it works so only the pretty pets win.
lol, that's a shame. xD
Heaven forbid a blank page win anything! Excuse me while I go remove one of my pets from the queue because his background is all icky and white.
Don't get so worked up, guys. All pets featured on the news page don't show pretty overlays, so if you don't click his name you won't have to endure the awfulness of seeing nothing there.

Pretty much sums up what I was thinking x:
Once pets get accepted into the queue they are not re-checked. There is far too many pets. There is a disable button that will allow the owner to take off the nomination. The owner should have done this especially since they temporarily adopted it out. It is not staff's fault.
It says on the page, "Adopted: April 20th, 2010", so it must have been nominated before that..
Holy crap, the pets really aren't checked often are they? xD

-Agrees-
Lol, you guys are getting just as pissy yelling at the people who were originally getting pissy. XD EVERYONE JUST CALM DOWN. <3 How sad for Hearse though, that this pet wins when he's not all dolled up. : <
Huh. I guess Subeta just wasn't expecting something like this happening. In any case, the profile must have been something lovely to have been accepted. Hopefully it will be put back up soon.
Loool, I would have never known there wasn't a profile since I never look at the winning pets, but the comments made me have to look.
Really, you guys are pissed off? .. Mael probably was chosen before he was transferred.. The owner had no idea they were going to win before transferring. It's one day and a mistake. It'll get fixed now that they know what's up. Grooooosfraaabaaaa.
Humm...
We have an entire day to look at the news and see a blank pet win the spotlight. The world is going to end.
If you want to see some neat profiles, just head to heARSE's other pets. I'm sure this one was similar when it was up. No big.
Dear people of the world, not everything on Subeta is perfect. Many big things have gone wrong, the Pet Spotlight is not one of these. Sure it's disappointing, but hey it's just a spotlight for only -one- day.
Considering the fact that a pet is very likely to be a permanent pet if it has a profile and everything this scenario is rather unforeseeable.
Ummm why?
