I joined last night as none other than "happy_guest".    I haven't had too much time to look around.  DH is thrilled with all these new games.     :notme:

At least I have a definate message board as home...VMKNoBS.   :trophy:
Yes, what were these spouces thinking.  they thought when VMK closed we would getr more sleep and be done with these online things.  We are all now cooking in so many pots we may need a bigger stove. LOL  It was a lucky thing VMK closed at 1 am EST.   I have no way to make my self sleep without an artificial boundry.  I might have to come up with my own control meathod.

Ahhh! So sorry Duck.he! I changed my house settings to prevent any other strangers from coming in, but I had forgotten to add a few last friends to my member's only list. I apologize for the mis-boot. I've added you on and hope that oopsie won't happen again.

Hugs!!

Aww, thanks Days!  It was my first time on, so I really wasn't sure what I was doing, except that you seemed to see me, but I could not see you.  So I simply moved forward, as did AwesomePattyCake (whom I have as a friend on VFK, so wanted to friend here as well there).  But yeah, something happened (ok a boot hehe) and I was taken to the "Emporium"?  LOL Disney or what?

btw, how do you make friends there?  Don't think I saw anything about that yet.

Status on friends can be non-mutual ;)   so it is important once people find their friends they add each other and change their status if they want them to visit at your space.

You can add friends in two ways.  Search for the user by title and select add.  Or if you see them click them and select the add friend option.  In both cases there is a change member status (or something) right below it. this involves how they will be able to interact with your room and items in the room. 

I am currently making all my friends Members.  I might in the future give some a higher status, or chose to add aquaintances but not make them members until I know them better.

About Member status...after you've clicked on these friends to make them Members, don't forget to add friends to your Member's page (under space settings --> Members). I like adding all my friends as Members, since it's much easier to see who's online (rather than looking at your friend's list). :)

This seems to have a fair amount of interest.

Should we make a board for it? (Does anyone want to be the Moderator for it if we do?)

:lolg:  You beat me to PMing you about the same thing!

Yes, I think it should have it's own board.. it would seem that for being Beta, it has a lot more to offer "initially".  I already know we need another thread just to collect peoples titles there, as we have done with VFK, Gaia..

I am willing to mod.. would be nice to have another mod as well ;)

This shows some of the dashboard controls for friends searching and space controls

OK, not sure what page I was on before... but, had no problem signing up today.
I am Lab Girl. (my dog is Beaker ;) )
Have no idea what I am doing... but, my daughter and I had great fun making my avatar look like me (with bad posture!)
and the dog looks like our dog, lol.
Not sure what to do now... off to try it out.

Teehee I keep finding people which is so thrilling :) because the only people who have come to my room are strangers...  :rofl3:

Well, after one too many run-ins with Victoria Beckham  (be very afraid LOL) and except for the freezing up when too many people are in the room (~3), I think this game is pretty cute! I'm Silverstar Fox and I have a kitty named Foxy. Is it just me or are most of you dog people? lol

Yay, can't wait to play with everyone!  :dance2: :dance3: :clap2: :dle: :dle2:

Is it just dogs and cats, or can you have a Hamster or Raccoon or maybe a Duck?
