We have been consolidating and reviewing a lot of feedback on various rules we have, and are happy to announce that all of the updated rules have been released.

1. The Terms of Service no longer forbids breasts, but instead focuses entirely on nipple exposure. Breasts are now allowed on Painties as well as artwork posted on Furvilla provided they follow the nipple rule. We feel this best represents a SFW environment while also not implying sexualization of people with that body shape.

2. The Terms of Service clarify our position on game asset trading with other browser games. The short answer is, we are fine with trading, however, we would like you to wait until the game is out of beta before doing so.

3. The Code of Conduct now indicates that CSS should not be used to cover or alter game stat information, including hiding or altering your or your villager's stats, or replacing your villager's image with CSS.

4. Our Forum Rules have now been updated to indicate that the phrase 'illegal drugs' refers to United States federal law, as there are discrepancies between the laws of different countries regarding what is an illegal drug, as well as individual states within the US.

5. Finally, after taking in all feedback with Painties and speaking with our Paintie moderators, we have completely revamped the Painties rule page in a way we hope clarifies everything regarding Paintie rules. We have been struggling with the inventive ways that players are creating some Painties, but unfortunately some are created in ways we did not intend for our bases to be used. We hope that this guide clarifies what we consider permissible for the use of our bases and helps clear confusion.

That now covers all the rules that have been changed thanks to your feedback. We also wanted to let you know that moderator applications are now closed. We received over a thousand applications and have hired our team. We do not yet have an ETA on releasing the forums as the moderators are occupied with ironing out issues with Painties. We will provide you an update when we have an idea of when the forums will be ready to re-release.

Last, here are a list of changes that have been implemented since Monday, the majority of them from suggestions e-mailed to us:
- grayed out Change Career button when idle
- destroy unwanted recipes from career page
- removed white gradient on long Private Messages
- Transfer Currency / Transfer Item on user page
- horizontal scrollbar appear in the message box when needed
- view all recipes/their reagents for reference: searching items in the museum now provides a list of reagents (for recipes), or a link to the recipe that crafts the item, or links to all recipes that use the item
- placed a button in the blacksmith career page that straight away takes you to repair requests
- Villagers page indicates which villagers are sick and with what
- item pages now include links to NPC shops if the item stocks there
- Paintie Removal button to strip a Paintie from a villager at the user's request
- the following items can now be used from the inventory on villagers who are not the active villager: medicines, pets, recipes, costumes, species potions, hp potions

    • The breeding cooldown varies by species though. I've had 5, 7, 10 and 15 day cooldown species so far.



    • Rena_Starfall I feel like the 10 day requirement could be lowered a little for now since it's beta testing and we need to be able to hunt down bugs, then raised back to 10 once they have a good crop of data to work with. 10 will be reasonable after that since it's a beginner skill. It'll keep the crowds of animals to a minimum and keep the babies relatively profitable.


    • I would kinda appreciate keeping my levels I worked on for my carpenter and etc. Seems a bit unfair to take away what we already built to. >->


    • I mean, I wouldn't mind a 10-day cooldown *after* breeding, but Animal Husbandry is so ridiculously slow to even actually become interesting because all females have some 10+ day wait when you first collect them. Kinda stinks.



    • Opinions: Does anyone else with a villager in Animal Husbandry think the 10-day wait until you can breed a female animal is a bit ridiculous?


    • Madness

      Riboo is correct, it's just a floating box that says "Changelog" and looks kind of out of place.


    • Seeing that some people are still in need of Narwhal Spear Schemas. I'm happy to pick them up for you at cost. Give me a nudge via PM.


    • Riboo Well I'll be, I've been ninja'd XD
