Hey! I wanted to start an OC thread (where everyone would send pics of their OCs with their backstory and all that), where should I post it? In the museum? (the art isn't mine so idk) or the brewster's cafe?

Hope this is the right place to ask, I just noticed my username is purple right now. Why? Do you only see your own username in colour or are there others?

The people that got nominated for the Easter egg decoration contest have pink usernames. And yes I can see yours is pink!


I think it changes from pink to purple, I really can’t tell.

Ohh that makes sense, thank you!

 

[Stella-Io]

So, the nominees names...

They're definitely changing between purple and pink with a tiny of purple right? I keep looking at them and at first I thought I was crazy but they really seem like they change colour.

They do change colour, yes!

can we bump brewster cafe threads?

If you mean like bumping inactive threads from four hours like in trading threads, yes. Remember that you have to wait four hours to bump any thread that has been inactive (8 if it’s in the amiibo card post office forum).

I’m not going to discuss other members’ bans, but is it possible for sages to lose their sage status? If so, what could cause this?

I know that Sockhead lost his sage status. Not sure why, though I know he's been banned a few times recently, and I never bothered to ask because the staff likely wouldn't tell anything about it.

As former staff and well-known members of the community, Sages are expected to set a good example for other users. The 'Sage' user title, coloured username, and the avatar extension are perks. If a Sage were to behave in a way that fails to set a good example for other users then, yes, they could lose these perks.

That makes sense. I didn't see what Sockhead did that caused him to be banned, but I know he's been banned a lot so I get why he lost his sage status.

Just a rhetorical question, but I wonder how many other sages have lost their sage status?

Wait! If they purchased the avatar extension as mods, then they lose their sage status, does that mean you guys will confiscate the add-on from their inventory like how users can get their egg collectibles confiscated for giving out hints or answers?

No. They would lose permissions; not items in their inventory.

So I remember when the staff considered charging users for using invisible mode, but that never went into effect. Why did they consider it in the first place?

There is a sage status?

Other than leaving a negative rating is there any other action we can take against someone we think may be an Amiibo card scammer? Can we report them or ask that their account be suspended? Thank you for your help!

 

[Alienfish]

Yeah, former staff members. They get a green name and they can keep the avatar height among other things I assume.
