I think it kind of died...

[touketsu]

That'd be awesome, but isn't likely. I tried to get in contact with Wyvern a month or two ago, to try to get the site alive again, with no luck as of yet.

Nope, we were abandoned... Hopefully one day they will come back and reward us for still checking in here.

Really, i dont know what to say anymore. They said they were coming out with this awesome website and got everyone so excited and happy about it, then just kinda left us hanging. Granted they do have the right to close down the site if they cannot maintain it or are no longer interested in running it, but they should have had the courtesy to tell us if this is the case so we are not left wondering what happened. How has everything been on the main site? any updates?

[yuuki747]

Nope, absolutely nothing. Dead as ever over there too. D:

I don't think there really is any hope in contacting Daeros, but Wayvern is still pretty active over on Dragonadopters. Has anyone tried there yet? And didn't Nasire, the main coder on Gryffs, help out with this site a bit? Has anyone talked to her about it?

(and what on earth happened to my original account here? o-o)

[touketsu]

Hmm....sounds like a plan. I sent a message. ^^ Maybe it'll help get everything here running again.

[Jax]

Or at least get us some info on whats happening.

[touketsu]

He said that he was still active on here up until about a month ago. The programmers and owners have abandoned the place, and it's not even possible to do contests because of that. The only way to get the site up again is if the programmers show back up. In other words, the site is dead.

[Jax]

Awwwww.......... Thank you for getting this to us Touketsu. I am very angry with the programmers/ owners now, but there isnt much we can do about it. I wished they would have posted something on here. ./facepalm I am just really bummed about this since a lot of people put a lot of effort into the contests and such.

Well it was nice to meet you guys at least, I get on Khimeros (#355) and Aywas (#2695) if you ever want to chat sometime. I probably wont get on here again unless there's interest in using it as something of a chat room.

[touketsu]

I'm good with staying on here to chat. Maybe if we keep using it and keeping it alive, even just one of the programmers will reappear.

[Jax]

Okay, i can do that ^^

I think the question comes then: what about the work that some of us did for the contests? I really like the coloring job, and in fact part of the design I want to use on a custom on another petsite, however the best reference for the work is to just upload the picture and go "here, something like these markings, but in X palate."

If the site was going to open I'd keep from uploading the image somewhere else and using it as a ref for the design, but since the entire staff has abandoned it, I don't feel much loyalty to keeping my word about not posing it anywhere else, especially since I can use it in a protfolio as an example of my work as a colorist.

[Jax]

That was something i had thought about but if you want to use it you should be able to. It took me a while to color mine, though i did mine in colored pencil and not on the computer.

[kjakings]

I asked Nasire, head of gryffs, about this and I was told it'll be picked up again, just not when.

[touketsu]

Really? So what, they decided they wanted to lose some of their user base or something?

[conium]

Yeah not really won over here either. Nice art, but I'm not going to wait around unless the re-opening of the site offers free Alpha accounts for the people who got roped into it. In addition I'll be glad not to use the art I worked hard on... when said site opens again. If the owners have an issue with that, they can get back to working on the game again, can't they?

[hiriachi]

huh I haven't seen much activity lately would have appreciated a warning that Daeros would go pewf
