I'm stuck standing here for the next 3 minutes

[tranquil frost]

Use /unstuck if it happens again, sorry for your loss

[unique plume]

Pretty sure I'll never find you in game bc we're in different regions.

[stark pebble]

If you are in game now ... what's your ign? Request heatroot and I'll send

[opal peak]

Dammit...now im back in!

[tall canopy]

I always forget to go to the underground to complete my furniture sets with rugs, toilets and baths 😭

[barren bison]

I hope so. This was a hard coding week lol. eye's, ears, and nervous system.

[pure reef]

Yeah and you can buy tree seeds from Ashuras foraging guild store now too! And (spoiler for new temple) you || get tree seeds from the gardener statue with a chance at a flow tree seed || but you probably already knew dat

[sick pawn]

Ang glod, Palians!! Hope everyone's doing alrighty today

[stark pebble]

I'd share if I could!

I love plushies in any game I play that has them I MUST have them all

[hushed patrol]

I'm happy I found the palia discord but man this is super distracting, like I need to play the game. 😭

[barren bison]

well at least i know I will recognize when I finally do get a ||gardener special flow tree seed|| I was wondering. I have only gotten normal seeds thus far 😦

[stable fog]

thank you! I'm piperbird in game, too

[wraith wolf]

Oh no, you are betraying your kind for their plushies.

[pure reef]

I have lots of heat root if you need any to replace! My game name is the same as my name in here! I'll log in if you do want to requesta

[arctic parcel]

It's keeps me sane sometimes, keeps me from feeling so alone

[stable fog]

thank you, that's so kind you guys

[pure reef]

Dang, you beat me to it!

[tall canopy]

Ik bout the ||gardener|| but not about seeds from Ashura! Thanky Fern! 🥰

[barren bison]

I actually encountered you running around the other day lol by the time I realized you were gone....well if your ign is the same, if not someone stole it lol

[sick pawn]

I feel this so hard because I only work with one screen, and I wish I could be chatting with everyone AND playing Palia at the same time

oh my desk is going to be a mess soon. I will have one pc on one side(personal) and a 2 screen set up for work on my other....and no room for me at all I'm gonna needs a 2nd L shaped desk so i can move around lol

[arctic parcel]

Omg I wish it did on the other hand I'd be exhausted

[pure reef]

Same! And all that rock climbing

[unique plume]

I'm also a single-monitor user and because of this I learned to alt-tab faster than you can yell "chapaa"

[pure reef]

Omg what keeps getting automod bonked

[arctic parcel]

Omg yes and gardenimg and frickin mining

[sick pawn]

Oh trust me, I hella alt tab. But I usually also have a stream in the background as I'm gaming, and a few tabs here and there and- es a lot for my smol brain to all focus on

[barren bison]

I do miss my 2 monitor set up and if I wasn't so frugal I could buy another lol.

[round sluice]

Why does that keep getting autobonked??? I'm gonna get in trouble, again, and I didn't even do anything bad... this time

[pure reef]

[cunning cobalt]

Is Automod being weird?

[tall canopy]

Did you say funny guy? 👀

I'll poke some of the shepp mods since they're still in the shepp chat and ask them if something is buggy with it, just in case.

So no one accidentally DOES get in trouble for no reason.

[barren bison]

OH I feel this. I'm currently always multi tasking. Looking for a house to buy cause hubbies grandma can't live alone anymore and we are fully trained medical care techs, so it makes sense for her to live with us, BUT we are short on room at the moment. She's next door at Uncles for now til I can find and secure a house big enough for all of us.

[round sluice]

Whaaa...!? I've only ever used it about myself, when I really do feel like I should maybe take a screen break

[tall canopy]

I really love this

[tepid abyss]

No worries, i understand! Buuuuut people very often use it to hate on others so we filter it out

[round sluice]

Weird, to me, but yay? Thanks 🫶🏽

[barren bison]

thank you mave for clearing that up. I've never seen it used to spread hate either, but good to know.

[velvet magnet]

it is at 49 and counting. The articles is on mmorpg website

[woeful pulsar]

I was looking on their site yesterday. They have several jobs aviable. Hm.. What is going on? https://singularity6.com

[round obsidian]

can’t have nice things

[stark pebble]

Here's to your house hunting panning out. Our area's real estate is just nuts right now

[pure reef]

I personally prefer touching moss

[tall canopy]

We’re too used to nice things so we don’t understand the not-so-nice things xD

[gaunt fractal]

I just saw the article too omg

[round obsidian]

it’s used a lot in other mmos/online spaces i’ve seen it tossed around badly xD

[south knoll]

@woeful pulsar yeah I posted that yesterday about the job openings it might just be it's up there all the time for the openings they have an officially announced anything about the layoffs this is somebody looking at LinkedIn and trying to count people

[arctic parcel]

Ive seen it used negatively and even had it used against me in that manner

[velvet magnet]

profits > than people. Basic captialist consumer society stuff. Money is more important than all the things

[tall canopy]

You seen the “latest trend” about clover lawns? 😮 Idk how the poor things survive after being stepped on but they’re sure pretty

[arctic parcel]

USA in a nutshell right there

[tepid abyss]

All i'm saying is that our logs are quite "funny" sometimes

[barren bison]

I'm not too worried about that. I think they are making some changes. Hopefully it works out in our favor as players.

[south knoll]

@arctic parcel it is a free game you don't have to pay to play people do need to eat

[hushed patrol]

Omg

[tired yacht]

Never me😌

[tall canopy]

I bet 🤣

[pure reef]

I am a firm clover fan, any lawn that's not monoculture grass is a win in my book

[arctic parcel]

What

[woeful pulsar]

Hm. Wonder whats going on. I saw this and happily thought that perhaps we get more people on the bug catching in their programming. It is sorely needed.

[arctic parcel]

I never said they didn't need to eat?

I'm confused by your comment

[gaunt fractal]

This time of year is REALLY bad for most companies too. But this time it’s crazy bad. Half of the people in the mall I work got laid off or hours severely cut.

[south knoll]

@arctic parcel it's not a sign of capitalism it's a fact that things cost money they're not requiring us to pay
They can't keep people on a payroll if the revenues aren't coming in that's how things go bankrupt

[tired yacht]

I'm with you Bambi. Dw about it :(

[barren bison]

I think this is a misunderstanding. Bambi was commenting on our Americans and our obscessions with profit margins, not specifically about Palia.

[round sluice]

From the "previous bunch", I find it somewhat funny a lot of the weird things have just taught a bunch of us to misspell things to get around the autobonker

[arctic parcel]

Okay I get that but that doesn't change that the USA is nothing but a corrupt Nation run on greed

🤷‍♀️

[arctic parcel]

Okies

[tired yacht]

Owen I don't think that's fair or appropriate.

[unique plume]

That sounds awful! Hope you don't get affected

[hushed patrol]

I totally just destructed one of the houses on my plot

[tepid abyss]

We have also found quite a few interesting flags But rest assured, autobonks are very, very rarely actioned by themselves

[tall canopy]

Give Mave a moment guys

[tepid abyss]

No worries, i got it

[gaunt fractal]

Aww thank you ☺️ Thankfully I am also a digital freelance artist so I’m okay!

[hushed patrol]

I wish we could attach rooms to the sides of hallways and not just at opposite ends.

[barren bison]

That is how it goes in retail. They hire a bunch of people in the fall, work them like dogs over the holidays, and then lay them off/cut hours til summer hits and they need more employees again.

[woeful pulsar]

That is allowed in US?

[tall canopy]

I want to attach a hallway to the side of a hallway 🥰

[barren bison]

Oh yes. Sadly, but very true.

[round sluice]

Oh, I'm still just laughing at the two things which have gotten me into timeout. 1 was an author's real name, and the other was typing out a cash register sound

[arctic parcel]

Yeah it's really bad and that kind of way

[pure reef]

Oh, man, the things they allow here.....at-will employment anyone?

[hasty orchid]

I want something that's inbetween a small room and a hallway

[gaunt fractal]

Yeah retail is scary here

[lofty badger]

Like a mini room?

[woeful pulsar]

Glad I dont live there.

[unique plume]

Pretty sure it's scary everywhere

[tall canopy]

A little room that’s perfect for corners and cosy spaces

[woeful pulsar]

Mpney talks everywhere to a certain degree.

[tired yacht]

We have 0 hour contracts in the UK so most retail isn't guaranteed hours but they hire on "full time"

[strong rapids]

There are technically acts/things in place to try to help with specific things but ... there are exemptions/loopholes. But I won't get into that since I don't think this is the place. 💀

[tired yacht]

Anyway like Palia amirite

[hasty orchid]

yeah, a small room is too big for a bathroom, and a hallway is too small

[hushed patrol]

I want to attach some rooms to my harvest house in an indirect way but it all ends up looking odd. Unless I come up with an idea for another large room that I can decorate.

[arctic parcel]

My boyfriend works in a warehouse and it has no job security at all he has to be very careful and it really sucks like if you have one emergency you're basically going to get fired

[round sluice]

Our employment laws almost always empower the corporations, and not the employees. Sad, but true
I've even seen a Tiktokker who is American, but now lives in France, and she does a lot of videos about such things

[tall canopy]

I’ve seen nice bathrooms with two hallways but you need to be creative ☺️

[stark pebble]

You'd be surprised how much you can cram into a hallway when used as a side room. I have one packed with every mirror in game plus plants and lights. It's really cute :P

[sturdy spire]

yeah theres also where you can work for like a week to see if ya like the job n are up for it

[hasty orchid]

I like the sound of that

[woeful pulsar]

Im norwegian in Norway. Staying put here.

[supple river]

To some degree, but it's my understanding that on other continents, cashiers are allowed to sit down. Speaks to a level of respect not shown over here.

[gaunt fractal]

Omg they’re cutting corners in the wrong places 😭

[lofty badger]

EVERY MIRROR?! that sounds like entering a new dimension

[tough lynx]

I've seen some people use the hallways as a pantry and it looks so cute ^^

[hasty orchid]

we also need book clutter and papers and scrolls to fill up all the bookshelves

[stark pebble]

Yeah it was fun. It's a dressing room off of a bedroom

[arctic parcel]

Yeah it's horrible but it's the only job he can get right now

[round sluice]

Good plan... Um... send me some salt licorice?

[tall canopy]

I don’t understand? They expect them to stand for multiple hours a day? Surely that’s not okay re: health

[light plank]

Just get a new person in for a week every time. No rights no cost. huge brain D:

We pay all our monthly bills with door dash deliveries. It's not easy, but it has kept our heads above water, our tummies full, and a roof over our heads so not complaining.

If you get a good manager and have a disability and a doctor to sign off on it, they might make an exception.

Might bring the key word here

[lofty badger]

black licorice and raspberry are top tier

[round sluice]

Hey, more for me

[hushed patrol]

Trying to come up with ideas for large room

[pure reef]

You don't have to have every single thing starred but it helps to have as many as possible starred, and it also helps to have your focus bar full

[hasty orchid]

Make sure your focus is decent too

[hasty orchid]

Liqurice is heaven in the mouth. Salt liqurice is a bit limited to how much you can eat before the skin in your mouth turns weird. Just like chips with vinegar effect.

[pure reef]

In the US it's legal to pay disabled people less than minimum wage

[hasty orchid]

we've had the gourmet clutter set, so why not a scholar's clutter set

[arctic parcel]

Yep it's horrible

[sturdy spire]

no haha i worked in a bording kennels for like half a year with the promise of getting paid after 3 months (in those 3 months i got taught how to do most things)

[opaque frigate]

This is why I haven’t tried to go on full disability

[round sluice]

I've only ever had a single small tin of it. I ate it one piece at a time, rationing it. Never had the vinegar chip effect, from licorice, but I can imagine it would be like that

Or just coming and biting you and screaming at you for not sharing your food.

[stark pebble]

I'd rather have Puffins :P

[woeful pulsar]

Yes I know. But it will amp up the charing level pluss enhance the atmosphere. The sight of birds playing would be a big difference 🙂

I think jel is the bahari ripper. The way he walks around with those scissors in his front pocket at night. He’s clearly looking for his next victim. I bet he uses their bodies as mannequins for his next fashion project

[delicate granite]

Make oneeee

[thorny roost]

"Where's there's a Will, there's also 500 'relatives' nearby"

[hard olive]

Sigh I definitely can

[tired yacht]

I'm behind but omg Bambi and Cross besties lore unlocked

[mortal ice]

I thinks it’s Tish.

[plucky junco]

Man I need so much flow wood

[delicate granite]

It's for the good of the people. The people is me.

[lofty badger]

Thats just a TLDR stickker

[stark pebble]

That would be perfectly fine over in #💬│off-topic-chat then copy/paste the message link in here. I do it all the time. Then people can read it , or not :)

[strong pond]

WHoa, nice, I got an option to play on Steam... Still not doing it

[plucky mulch]

oh girl, i am not gonna sit here n read all this, i was just answering ur question 💀 sorry

[round sluice]

Big hug!

[lofty sparrow]

QwQ leave Jel and Tish alone; they both precious and going through it.

[lofty badger]

there

[leaden relic]

You may be on to something . I could see her imagination going a little too wild and she turns them into furniture.

[lofty sparrow]

Nvmd this makes a good argument against Tish

[plucky mulch]

????????? wha

[verbal lynx]

Came to check on gen chat and it's chaos as usual. I'll slowly back away now. Hope you all have a great day of mass murdering sernuk oops I mean hunting sernuk. 😅😅

[mortal ice]

Wait. Why do we assume the Bahari Ripper is just one person. Maybe it’s Jel and Tish! That explains their friendship!

[plucky mulch]

for the greater good

[strong pond]

Yeah, I need to fill my museum's conservation wing- errrr uhhh there's a party and I need a lot of sernuk meat

[idle spindle]

What if the Bahari Ripper is just a village-wide conspiracy?

[plucky mulch]

for the Greater Good

[plucky junco]

I can't seem to find any flow wood groups

[mortal ice]

What if they are all in on it?!

[round sluice]

Pretty sure it's ||Sifuu's wife/Hassian's mum||. That said, yeah, I think Tish is maybe super scary, and Jel is the "Renfield" to her "Vlad"

[plucky mulch]

????? "oh girl" is a phrase, i don't know anything abt u 💀

[limber hatch]

It's ||Eshe taking out women with any similarities to her daughter to increase her optimal spouse potential||

[arctic parcel]

I read it all and all I can say is I make way to little being disabled I can barely survive

[stark pebble]

Nonono, Jel is a vampire, that stores silk wrapped bodies in his basement. Tish is weirdly fixated on Jel cause he never ages. Poor Reth is caught up in the mix cause he's always concerned about Tish. I do my best to stay away from all 3 :P

[lofty badger]

this feels like jel slander

[strong pond]

Oh, no wonder Kenyatta hates her mother

[stark pebble]

LOL! I always view it the opposite. Jel is "Vlad" ... Tish as "Renfield"

[arctic parcel]

Cause she doesn't listen to her

[round sluice]

I figured this is what you meant. I say this, too. I curb my propensity toward it, online. Same as I also stop myself saying "Duuude!", as some folks think I mean that gender specifcally

[mortal ice]

I tend to not talk to Tish or Jel much either. Reth will always be like the little brother you just want to help steer in the right direction but he just doesn’t seem to find the path

[round sluice]

"It's always the shy, quiet types.", so... it's both?

[thorny roost]

Dude!
Where's my car?

[arctic parcel]

Hassian

[frigid vapor]

Yeah it’s a phrase but it can come off as you are assuming their gender. Especially if they are on the spectrum or just in general.

[plucky mulch]

yea, like i have no trouble not using a "gendered" phrase if asked ofc! but perhaps language barriers are in the way here

[round sluice]

"Sweet! What's mine say?"

[delicate granite]

Sooo how about those uhhh. Lettuce soup bowls.

[opal peak]

Oh now it makes sense!

[arctic parcel]

No

[limber hatch]

Just assume everyone on the internet is a dog. You have no way to confirm they are not. Or a cat.

[thorny roost]

Duuuudeeee

[plucky mulch]

that's fine! i am also autistic, so i don't mind clarifying

[stark pebble]

Why worry about it? I've been using 'dude' universally for too many decades to change now. If someone takes offense or decides they need to correct something, they can. Just be you.

[azure latch]

my dad is from new york and i grew up thinking guys was gender neutral since he'd use guys to refer to any group of people

[mortal ice]

Cat, definitely not a dog in this household. My cat is staring at you right now.

[arctic parcel]

I think enough would be considered where I don't have to worry about food every month and I don't have to worry about my bills every month or the water or electric cutting off

[frigid vapor]

Is there an actual lettuce soup recipe in game or is it just Retha lettuce soup?

[idle spindle]

I tend to gravitate towards "bud" since that's pretty all encompassing.

[stark pebble]

This is not actual Palian lore .. to be clear. This is my reaction to Jel's rather offputting weirdness :P

[opal peak]

I call everyone guys

[plucky mulch]

it basically is at this point - there's lots of phrases that are slowly losing their Strongly Gendered undertone, but i also respect if someone asks me to Not call them a particular word 🙏

[thorny roost]

It's how I use it. I'm fairly certain it's grammatically correct as well

[ornate stone]

I'm not your bud, pal. /j

[tired yacht]

I often think about the scene in dude where's my car where ||he's trying to motion for the other to hit the guy on the head with the fire extinguisher and even goes so far as to pick it and pretend to do it to the guy before putting it back. ||

[opal peak]

Oh but it totally makes sense.

[idle spindle]

I'm not your pal, friend /j

[limber hatch]

Uh oh, please tell kitty I will not interrupt their internet activities!

[round sluice]

I've been kicked from some places for saying basically the same thing. People get offended. I say that's not how it was intended. Next thing I know, I'm the bad guy
(And by "guy", I, again, do not mean that gendered)

[opal peak]

Im not your buddy pal

[tranquil silo]

LHEY NOW

[idle spindle]

you're an all star

[frigid vapor]

I feel that. Sometimes I have to read something over and over to actually get it. 😌

[round sluice]

I'm not your pal, friend

[arctic parcel]

To second this I'm not asking to be rich I'm just asking to have enough to make it and be okay and not have to worry constantly about food water electricity

[mortal ice]

They have said you are forgiven and will not send the chapaas after you when you step into Bahari

[opal peak]

IM NOT YOUR PAL, BUDDY

[plucky mulch]

oh same!! sometimes i listen to a whole thing someone says, just to totally have no idea why they're saying it!

[arctic parcel]

Even a roof over my head

[round sluice]

TBC, totes happy to be your pal. Was just playing along 🫶🏽

[mortal ice]

Now I have a song going thru my mind thank you for that

[thorny roost]

I find it interesting that once people are made aware of your intentions (because you tell them) they don't accept it or let it go.

[idle spindle]

does it start with the word someBODY?

[opal peak]

🤣🤣 me too

[plucky mulch]

SHRIEKS i didn't until you said this 💀

[thorny roost]

Does it involve Rockstar?

[stark pebble]

I hear you. It's that line we always wonder if we've accidently crossed it. My personal view is this ... if someone wants to talk to me about something, my DM is open. Always being so defensive about labels in a video game chat is exhausting. You do fine. Again, just be you <3

[mortal ice]

Happy to help when I can

[azure latch]

i mean just because you don't mean to hurt people doesn't mean you aren't hurting them. they might just be reacting to what they did, not what they meant to do

[surreal ermine]

[plucky mulch]

all that glitters truly IS gold, after all . . .

[opal peak]

Im totally your friend, buddy

That song , Allstar, gets rent free for life status, in my head. Love the song. Love the movie it was in. No shame 🎶 "Go... for the moon"

[stark pebble]

Spies Cinna. Slides over the last bear claw Shhh

[ornate stone]

I hear you on that. I want that for everyone. Basic existence/survivability shouldn't be a fear at all, let alone one that's so widespread when it doesn't have to be. I'd prefer my dice rolls to be about things like 'will the weather be bad today?' instead of 'is it going to be rent or food this month?'

[mortal ice]

Must leave to feed the cats. Have fun, play nice and find a plushie for me please.

[arctic parcel]

My BF is a vet to , thank you for your service

You will have to fight Cinna for the last one. Sorry. And I bet she wins, she of the emoji/sticker queendom

[rain lichen]

how to "fulfill" a player request??

[limber hatch]

Open the social panel, and there should be a tab with a gift box, if you have the items you can click to fulfill

[stark pebble]

Click O .. click the tab with the gift and heart ... see the list (if there is any) select "Fill" (for PC anyway)

[plucky mulch]

you don't have one

[barren bison]

Aced the exam 100%, and that is my current grade in the whole class lol.

[azure latch]

the little green thing? that's from being new on the server, it goes away

[tired yacht]

You're a new member. The leaf goes away after a week

[surreal ermine]

They have the new joiner plant. It'll go away once theyre not a fresh sprout - ofc I don't see it on mobile

[arctic parcel]

Grats wow!!

[stark pebble]

The little leaf? It shows that you're new ... it goes away after a time

[tired yacht]

congrats!!

[stark pebble]

Woohoo!!! TOLD ya!

[barren bison]

Thanks everyone 🙂 now I don't have to worry about it for the rest of the weekend. I'm freeeeee. lol

[thorny roost]

Yes but once the apology and explanation is there, person A has two options: accept or not. And if they choose to not accept the apology and move on then that's on them but Person B who made the hurtful comment doesn't have to continue to engage. Person B's responsibility was to apologize and explain intent.

This theory is of course logically based on the assumption that the people in question are of an emotional maturity.

I expect Auni to hold a grudge if Naio said something hurtful because he's a kid. But I wouldn't expect his mother to do so if Naio apologized.

Also the convo has moved forward as I'm typing this so whoops. Oh well. Lol

[tired yacht]

I like scones

Also I pronounce it sGone

[thorny roost]

Auni just used stink bugs and moves on.

I pray I never smell it

[azure latch]

i mean on a discord server it makes sense to me, mods don't have a way to quantify the sincerity of any given apology, and if they assume some people are being more sincere that others, then people will cry foul for not enforcing things evenly

[barren bison]

ok off to go bug grandma next door bbiab

[thorny roost]

I have never had a scone

[plucky mulch]

u can't get rid of it

Glad it's not in Palia
Yellow on roof? No

edited to make it a haiku

[wanton breach]

my favorite past time is not letting him tell the dad joke correctly. like he tried once "What do you have under there?" and I was like "under what?"

[limber hatch]

If I wanted a yellow car, I'd have purchased a yellow car.

[stark pebble]

Our kids yell at us all the time for yelling at each other from our rooms. That or we're typing furiously and they ask 'who ya chatting?' ... Oh, your dad. You can hear him typing away in his room (which means we are about 10 ft apart) cackle

I have long white hair, am 4ft 11 and use a cane. You can call me anything but late for dinner

[stark pebble]

It's ok, I bake enough to feed everyone

[arctic parcel]

I want cherry pie

[unique plume]

I googled 4ft 11, that's short! (Not meant in a rude way)

[thorny roost]

Same
But I kept getting the crazy-fun gramma vibes that would get everyone into trouble instead of the Mom vibes that isn't as cool

[tired yacht]

THat's fantastic lmao

[arctic parcel]

Plz ty 🥺

[stark pebble]

Watch it, You. You can not have cherry pie right now. You can have jello. Or soup.

[thorny roost]

May I have please ice cream cake? With confetti

[leaden crypt]

what kind of ice cream though

it's the most important question about ice cream cake 👀

[thorny roost]

Cheesecake

[arctic parcel]

Homemade brownies

[stark pebble]

Hey. HEY! taps her foot and waves her cane around Do I look like Reth!? I serve one meal a day and a dessert in the morning. No special requests unless it's your Bday.

[arctic parcel]

What about a anniversary

[thorny roost]

ahem. Points to my status

[regal rain]

You lot are bonkers, and I love it.

[stark pebble]

That's entirely different. You get the barn prettied up to look special with a 12 course meal for 2. And no one else is allowed in there.

[limber hatch]

12 course meal..? How big are the servings??

[stark pebble]

sigh Ok FINE , you can have a cat. (where the heck is status at?)

[unique plume]

Dw, I will bake tasty stuff for everyone Any requests!

[arctic parcel]

Awwww

[stark pebble]

You're hired

[thorny roost]

I will take a cat over cake!

[stark pebble]

Just don't eat it!

[leaden crypt]

lemon meringue pie pls and ty

[iron relic]

vegan sugar cookies please~

[stark pebble]

rogue, hire an assistant, you're going to need one

[unique plume]

I will hire my Palia character, she's level 11 in cooking

[limber hatch]

My brother makes me one every year for my birthday. Such a great pie.

[stark pebble]

Oh so sorry, missed this in the scroll. Single large servings to share. I mean, it's an anniversary, no?

[limber hatch]

And I just remembered my husband owes me a cake from a bet he lost almost a year ago..

[limber hatch]

Ahh that makes more sense! I was picturing 24 plates total.

[leaden crypt]

I would get a slice of lemon meringue like 2 or 3 nights a week when I lived on my college campus first year, the cafeteria always had some and it was so good

[limber hatch]

That sounds dangerous, to have that much pie within walking distance ..

[stark pebble]

Usually platters. I used to cater. Can't do anything simple anymore lol

[main kraken]

Freshman 10

[chilly sky]

Is something going on with the climbing? I've noticed sometimes I run or fly into a wall and my character doesn't grab on.

[leaden crypt]

it was, luckily I walked everywhere and managed to control myself to a couple nights a week instead of daily

[unique plume]

FYI you can't climb ruins, if you were trying to climb those

[chilly sky]

Nah, just regular cliffs

[echo violet]

Just saw on reddit that Singularity 6 (Palia's dev company) laid off a bunch of folks. The MMORPG.com article posted said 49 people lost their jobs. 😦

[regal rain]

Have had similar, also getting stu k in walls, only thing I have found to sort it out is to map back to my plot

[chilly sky]

You could also try typing /unstuck. But I've been in siituations where that didn't work.

[arctic parcel]

Omg they gave me unsweetened tea

It's so bad yall

[limber hatch]

Sometimes you can use that 4-5 times in a row to make it work

[frigid vapor]

https://tenor.com/view/katya-zamolodchikova-zamo-un-hhhh-gif-20146155

[regal rain]

I'm playing on Switch, typing just takes waaaay too long!

[stark pebble]

Not surprised. Low sodium/low sugar diets are common. Did you get to select your meals?

[arctic parcel]

No lol

[stark pebble]

I'd prefer cool water myself over unsweetened tea

[tall canopy]

Are people exploiting Adora’s kindness? 👀 I didn’t see anyone volunteer to do the dishes

[arctic parcel]

Unsweetened tea is unlawful

[frigid vapor]

If you type it enough it gets suggested after the /

[stark pebble]

Adopts you. Nuff said. Period.

[arctic parcel]

Dishwashers

Are a very good invention

[round sluice]

All of Asia just went "Huh?" They don't realize just how bitter orange-cut pekoe is. Unsweet green tea is quite tasty. "Sun tea" with no sugar is just sad and bleah

[limber hatch]

Dishes that wash themselves would be even better

[tall canopy]

Then we need to speak to Tamala about that, making life easier for Adora

[arctic parcel]

I'll keep my sweet tea ty lol

[stark pebble]

I have one. I never gets used. They're useless for the volume of clutter with 6 adults.

[unique plume]

Sweetened tea is awful. Unsweetened all the way. Maybe a slice of lemon in there

[heavy moat]

Is there any fix to the issue where you get stuck if you try to give a villager a chocolate when you have already given one?

[stark pebble]

For the love of the dragon, do not drag Tamala into this. We'll all be frogs in a pond before she's done

[arctic parcel]

💯

[tall canopy]

It’s Cross’s favourite girl 🤣

[stark pebble]

Stuck as in, game sticks? Or no progression?

[thorny roost]

I thought I was Cross's favorite girl
/jk

[stark pebble]

I thought all of you were Bobn't's 257 wives cackle (Don't hurt me Bob you're not)

[arctic parcel]

I'll claim it

[heavy moat]

Stuck, like the game is not frozen, but nothing happens when i press any key on the controller

[tall canopy]

Does Winty even know Bobn’t? 🤣

[round sluice]

Oh, my! You and my partner gonna throw down

[thorny roost]

I do not

[arctic parcel]

xD

[stark pebble]

Have you logged out and back in?

[tired yacht]

I don't even know who the wives are either

[stark pebble]

That is why it was funny. I wasn't sure she knew him either ;)

[tall canopy]

You got married off without even knowing xD

[heavy moat]

@stark pebble thats the only fix i know of

[thorny roost]

Nope. I'm more of a favorite kid-next-door. No contest for your partner

[stark pebble]

I'm sorry. If it keeps happening try asking in either #🤝│game-help or #💻│tech-help . If you're on a controller they'll be able to help you more. I use a pc with mouse/keyboard <3

[arctic parcel]

Omg I get the randomist crap stuck in my head

[thorny roost]

WHAAATTT?

mutters Dip out for a month and this happens? Wtf

[heavy moat]

@stark pebble im on switch, so kinda have to use a controller xD

[tall canopy]

Dirty duck 🤭

[stark pebble]

I know 2 people that use controller with PC ;)

[arctic parcel]

Yis

[thorny roost]

I wanna divorce

[frigid vapor]

Does anyone else’s game crash after exiting from the roots temple?

[limber hatch]

If you have monies you can use a keyboard with switch! And mouse too

[unique plume]

My cheap Chinese controller for PC broke

[tired yacht]

Let's get it annulled. It'll never have happened.

[thorny roost]

Done deal

[arctic parcel]

What's a monies

[chilly sky]

The getting stuck thing is a known issue. It happens to me almost every play sesseion and the only way to resolve it is to restart. The game goes on around you but you can't move your character, open chat etc.

[gritty coyote]

Guys, me and my friend from the same city, I got to NA server but him to EU, why is that?

[tall canopy]

Shiny stuff

[thorny roost]

VPN?

[frigid vapor]

Does he have a VPN by chance?

[gritty coyote]

None of us use vpn

[thorny roost]

Um.....then I asssume the Magic Internet Tower hates someone and can't find home GPS

[heavy moat]

All the time. Go to your map and teleport home instead of you can. That worked for me atleast

[stark pebble]

For divorce you get the barn for the night. But instead of having your 12 course meal on platters to share, it's separate tables on either side of the barn, screens so you can type your heart out to each other (cause I can't abide screaming) and 2 bodyguards each. No one else is allowed in there all night. No extra cost. I'll call for separate cabs, on me.

[tall canopy]

It’s no issue though you can play with them any time. Just have the one visit the other in the region that’s closer for a better experience

[gritty coyote]

Yeah we do that for now, but it's strange cuz the distance between us is 10 mins with car lol

Also I can't party with him.

I get the invite from him and I accept but nothing happens, same for him

[tall canopy]

You can! Parties are just being silly rn. I have to reparty each time we go to another zone

[frigid vapor]

Okay. Just wanted to see before I put a note into support in a few. It’s the only time that it crashes for me. 😆

But I will remember that next time I go in there. Thank you!🙂

[stark pebble]

laugh "I found a monies, wat I du wif it?"

[heavy moat]

Happy to help ☺️

[tall canopy]

Oh! Not at all? 😮 Please report that.

[undone adder]

I believe the server tries to pick a server for you corresponding to the country you chose when registering... Is there any chance he might've clicked the wrong country? :''D

Like... "United Kingdom" instead of "United States of America". I think they're right after each other :'')

[gritty coyote]

No, we both selected the same country

I thought of that so we checked

[gritty coyote]

Oh, how?

[tepid abyss]

Have you guys done the tutorial part? It ends after building your tent and leaving the plot for the first time. Until you do that, you won't be able to form a party

[rain lichen]

can I ask..this may contain spoilers but || how do I get to the third island on the sky? this is regarding the twins and zeke entering a ruin but even if I got all 15 eggs and 4 of the treasures, I still dont get to the third, what am I missing? are all the manuals on the current islands available?||

[gritty coyote]

We already built the big house that takes 8hrs, we also are like lvl 15

[tepid abyss]

Ah, i see. Then yeah, a support ticket is probably in order then

!support

[teal harness]

oh sweet sweet merciful chapaa. what have they done?

[surreal ermine]

[chilly sky]

Someone got laid off while on vacation? Sheesh........

[last sparrow]

I once got fired while on vacation

That sucks i relate

[surreal ermine]

Oh no I'm on vacation

[heavy blade]

Dang it Bambi, Hanson singing mmmbop just showed up on my fb reels!!!

[opal peak]

3 ppl. I love my ps4 contoller

[opal peak]

Make sure you tell em about the preserves! I nominate you as our spokes person

[autumn pebble]

Laid i usually don’t talk much hear hopefully it wasn’t a palia employee and if it wasn’t hope they find something better

[frigid vapor]

Preserves? My brain isn’t connecting. This is sarcasm that I’m just not getting isn’t it? 🤣

[opal peak]

Preserves should be displayable on shelves...no sarcasm

[stark pebble]

That troubleshooting line should be changed from "Have you or anyone in your party ever seen a bug, error, or glitch?" ... to bugn't. As in, not an in game creature. Example : *sends in a report 'I saw a bug! pictures a butterfly ... Second report "I saw another bug!" pictures a caterpillar This could be quite exhausting for both player AND staff! 🐛 🐞

[surreal ermine]

[opal peak]

Lol

[wraith wolf]

I wish we could place star preserves. 😭

[frigid vapor]

Okay good. 😆 Preserves definitely should. Would be good for Delilah’s getaway that I’m planning on my plot.

[autumn pebble]

Aww yes the elusive star preserves lol

[opal peak]

Exactly. But youre our spokes person now.

[hard olive]

[tepid abyss]

Well if someone sees a rainbow-tipped butterfly, i would certainly want to see a report of that!
(i'm pretty sure people generally understand it, but if player support starts getting those tickets i'm sure they will let us know via the CM(s?) hehe)

[surreal ermine]

I finally caught my first rainbow tipped butterfly just this week! It was the first one I've seen

[stark pebble]

(I was making a funny ... to make you laugh, cause your job is sometimes unappreciated.) <3

[frank pasture]

I got my drops but they haven't shown up in my game yet and I did it on April 2nd

[opal peak]

We are like basement zombies to them probably so you gotta learn the devs language and tell them what we need

[frigid vapor]

Well time to get my boots on and start demanding placeable preserves.

[stark pebble]

Woohoo!!! congrats! did you get the starred one?

[frigid vapor]

Basement zombies. I like that. 😈

[tepid abyss]

No worries, i got it, per my first line Just gave an honest answer as well, just in case

[surreal ermine]

No but I hope for next time!!

[opal peak]

Lol it was that or basement plague ghosts.

[lofty sparrow]

My only suggestion would be to make sure you have your accounts linked properly. And that you’ve hit the redeem buttons in your twitch drops page.
:/ saw someone this week had linked their alt account to their twitch and didn’t realize it before redeeming.

I think that’s kind of funny . . . But please don’t do that. But yes funny

[last sparrow]

[lofty sparrow]

Always a pleasure to see mousy 🐭

[surreal ermine]

mousy is such a blessing 🐭

[mortal ice]

You know who is a blessing? Hodari

[stark pebble]

I would never do that. I try not to be THAT player. Just ... that player ;)

[umbral pulsar]

At first I thought this was going to be a “have you or anyone you love been effected by bugs? You may be entitled to financial compensation” joke

[stark pebble]

Or "Have you considered switching your car over to Geiko" :P

[tepid abyss]

Here to talk about your cylinder's extended warranty

[scenic prairie]

ummmm im having a major issue, i created the investigator set and i put them into my chest… they ALL disappeared theyre not there and ive looked quite a few times before coming here halp i cry 😢

[gritty coyote]

any idea how to fix chat trying to connect?

[frigid vapor]

Do you have lockboxes? Might’ve put them in there by accident maybe.

[scenic prairie]

nope havent even bought those yet just my normal chests

[frigid vapor]

I’d put in a ticket with support then.

[lofty sparrow]

Support might be able to assist with this, but double check your storage and be sure to scroll through the All category, not just your furniture. Sometimes items aren’t coded correctly and get tossed into the wrong group.

[scenic prairie]

ive never put a ticket in before where do i go for that 🤧

[stark pebble]

In game chat can be tricky. Especially for Switch users. I'm on pc, if chat constantly says "can't connect" I log out, wait a few moments, log back in and hope the new server I have been put into has a better connection.

[undone adder]

Also make sure they didn't somehow end up in your quest items... It happens :'')

[lofty sparrow]

!support

[teal harness]

Oh hai there!
If you seek Player Support, you need only answer these riddles three...

Wait, actually, you just need to click this link.
http://support.palia.com/

And you can then submit a ticket to our sparkly, mesmerizing PS portal, which is open Monday - Sunday, 9am-5pm PST. Operators are standing by!

[gritty coyote]

im on pc

[stark pebble]

Many of us only chat here, since in game chat is not reliable. Log out and back in.

[gritty coyote]

oh i see, i thought its a problem on my end

thx

[frank pasture]

I have it linked, how do you redeem it?

[lofty sparrow]

I’m on mobile so it might take a moment but I’ll look for the twitch page.
If you mean in game, you’ll want to go to the News section. On PC this appears at the top of your inventory screen, looks like a clip board icon iirc.

This SHOULD be where to go via twitch, but I don’t have my account logged in to properly test: https://www.twitch.tv/drops/inventory you’ll have a redeem button next to each item that’s unlocked.

[frank pasture]

I'm on the switch, should it work the same way ?

[scenic prairie]

oki i put my ticket in tyy i added some pics to that i made them and my empty chest on where they shouldve been the only ones i can see of that entire set is just the desk and end table 🫠🫠

[lofty sparrow]

Very similarly, I think thing the + menu should lead to the news section too.

[lofty sparrow]

Good luck with it! Those are some expensive pieces to craft!

[frank pasture]

Ok I just went on the site, and it says game connected , my news says "You're all caught up" 🥺😭

[scenic prairie]

yea if they didnt use such expensive and so many mats i wouldnt mind remaking them

[lofty sparrow]

You may want to contact support then. I’m a bit potato at navigating the twitch pages on mobile.

[stable fog]

another question - is this broken? I'm cooking the petit fives, and I'm on the stove, and there's a circle. In the past, you click when it's in the little circle, but now when i click, it goes around and around forever. The reicpe eventually burns and I have to use unstuck to get out of it. I can't share a screen shot here, but i'm unsure what's changed since last time I've played

I've tried three times, and every time at this mini game, it just doesn't work

[sturdy spire]

have you tried cooking with somebody else?

[stable fog]

I haven't, I don't have anyone online now to play with, but I've always been able to cook alone before

[sturdy spire]

if youd like i can hop on

@stable fog

[lofty sparrow]

I haven’t cooked since the most recent update; if you can please submit a bug report! But def don’t be afraid to ask others to help cook - especially if it’s to get something done for a quest.

[crystal egret]

can i join you both i need to cook for the your order is served quest

[stable fog]

it isn't the biggest deal, I don't even have one of the recipes yet, I just figured I'd knock it out while it was on. I'll put it in bug report

[sturdy spire]

i can pop on and help ya

[supple river]

You click and hold, then let go when it's in the circle, now.

[dawn void]

It took me a long time to realize the clicking thing for flipping. You want to let go of the clicker at the circle, not click at it.

Happy cooking!

[sturdy spire]

i can help ya both i dont mine

[crystal egret]

plz do, that would be great, my in game name is WindDance

[stable fog]

oooh! I'll give that a try! I haven't played in a hot minute, and it used to just be you clicked it when it reached that small circle

[crystal egret]

i'm new to cooking so i find it confusing

[sturdy spire]

ofc my names in my user on discord

[chilly sky]

Why is Hodari ranting ||about people in Kilima not seasoning their food and thinking salt is spicy.|| He just like me fr.

[sturdy spire]

@crystal egret ive sent a friend request

[sturdy spire]

insert Gordon Ramsey

[strong pond]

"Where's the muujin SAAAAAAUCE-"

(Also, cue him calling Kenli an actual idiot sandwich)

[crystal egret]

I got your friend request, the game wont let me, says there is an error 😢

[sturdy spire]

hmm that is odd

can you try and send me one

[crystal egret]

Im new to this game can you try to come to my home plot? Or do we have to be friends? Anyone can visit me

[supple river]

I about fell out of my chair at that line. (My in-laws have a bottle of store brand chili powder with a piece of masking tape on the lid that says "HOT")

[stable fog]

amazing, that worked, thank you so much!
the game could def do with some cooking explination ❤️

[lofty sparrow]

I don’t think I realized the way it works had changed some time ago. Sorry, but good to know!

[stable fog]

yeah, my life went nuts and I haven't really been able to play much of anything since before xmas. so much has changed since then!

[crystal egret]

I tried, it says its an error

[sturdy spire]

hmm thats odd

maybe try restarting?

[civic arrow]

Aw man there’s apparently been a bunch of layoffs at Singularity 6? That sucks 😞 best wishes to the Palia staff

[steep pumice]

Has Palia come out with a way to change our user names, yet? I don't wanna be Trds any longer, lmao.

[round sluice]

From what I understand, you can submit a request to Devs, but no more than 1 per 6 months

NOTE: Hearsay

[vast inlet]

I'm going to be on tomorrow, if anyone want to send me a friend request or visit my home plot as it will be open to everyone.

[steep pumice]

Is there something special on your plot?

[old grotto]

Is anyone else having trouble with map pins not showing on the compass??

[vast inlet]

No, but if you like. You can see my home plot layout.

[round sluice]

Not every time, but sometimes, yes. I found rezoning worked

[vast inlet]

Everyone is welcome to send me a friend request on Palia.

[old grotto]

Rezoning?

[spring sedge]

Does anyone want to cook w me i would provide the ingridents i just need someone to stir so i can finish the quest master social chef

[round sluice]

Go from, say Bahari Bay to Kilima, and back. Switch areas, then switch back

[old grotto]

Ah, okay 👍

[sturdy spire]

hiya

[inland vault]

[spring sedge]

Is that a yeah? Xd

[sturdy spire]

yup

[spring sedge]

Whats ur ingame name?

[sturdy spire]

Moonligh6

[visual laurel]

can someone explain the plushies that are dropped. can the deer in kilima drop a plushie? also do the disco deers drop one too? i got an elder one

[sturdy spire]

yes they all drop

[visual laurel]

ok awesome ill hunt the deer in kilima then work on the disco deer since i got a plushie from the darker color deer

[lofty sparrow]

[alpine haven]

Definitely check out the #🏡│decor channel!

[onyx plume]

does layoff means that they are not getting the budget for the staff?

[neon glen]

I don’t think they can/will answer that.

[rich raft]

I wouldn’t mind paying for the game if it means no layoffs

[lunar trail]

We can only speculate the "why"

[grand lark]

Layoffs always make me weary since it's usually just to give higher ups bigger checks

[edgy lichen]

[lapis laurel]

It would be nothing at all to me to pay for it

[edgy lichen]

although to me, I think it means the core is there, and they can use AI coding to streamline stuff faster than a human.

[plucky mulch]

from how i'm reading it, it looks like "we have come to the conclusion after the steam release we didn't need as big a dev team anymore"

[past bramble]

will layoffs impact the gameplay?

[plucky mulch]

if they decide to use AI coding they will probably end up with a more broken game 💀

[broken cosmos]

I wanna know Same thing?

[onyx plume]

its sad that there's layoffs when its still just beta. what more when they're no longer beta

[wispy musk]

oh my goddd :(((

[lofty sparrow]

I wouldn’t expect it to. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if many players choose to take a break for a bit.

[tall adder]

😦 this game is so broken why would they get rid of people???

[astral grotto]

Considering every patch comes with hiccups, maybe layoffs isn't the BEST move

[wispy musk]

literally 😭--

[broken cosmos]

Wow

[spiral raptor]

Confused as to why they said theyre evaluating how to give the highest quality gameplay service and that means, reducing staff????

[sand bison]

you can no longer get the beta tester role

[quiet spade]

its called "corporate bs'ing"

[hushed patrol]

thats the only thing it'll ever be for

[tidal flint]

It literally sounded like they said "we knew we needed more people so we decided to lay off a bunch".

[tall adder]

seems to me like the steam excuse was BS lol usually when companies reduce staff that means they're running out of money :/

[lunar trail]

IMO, I think they were looking for Steam to provide a new stream of players and instead got met with tons of negative reviews

[neon glen]

It’s still technically in beta, just open beta.

[obtuse scaffold]

Yknow, I absolutely love this game, and I really really hope it doesnt die. But I also hope they didnt lay off the people that were fixing the bugs. It’d be nice to shop at the general store without having to restart my game because it crashes after I leave the shop.

[civic idol]

I would’ve thought there would have been more stability for the team with the steam release as it’s now open to a larger audience. It so sad, it kinda feels like they pushed the team really hard for the steam launch and when that was over they just let them go.

[sand bison]

ahh i see

[hushed patrol]

this game is so far from being actually complete its kind of crazy they just threw away talent

[broken cosmos]

She said 35% that’s a whole lot of people.😒

[sand bison]

honestly i wouldnt mind paying for the game its an awesome game and stuff

[real crag]

Kinda disappointed tbh

[low moat]

That makes me think they expect the game to fail because of the mixed stream reviews and poor release :/

[obtuse scaffold]

Its gotta be a budget thing. Its hard as a new game to get income from just premium shops alone. I get it, just sad to see.

[plucky mulch]

it's a LOT of creative devs too, like narrative, background, community, etc...

[tepid tendon]

Same, I wouldn't mind a small sub.

[somber lichen]

They didn't say where the 35% came from. Maybe they laid off a bunch of marketing people or maybe they overstaffed HR.

[broken cosmos]

39.99 is a good price for it.

[lapis laurel]

Yeah

[mortal ice]

Sadly some purposefully done.

[plucky mulch]

nah, i don't think so - i think they likely overhired/hired to push for switch and steam releases and now they're having layoffs like every other tech/gamedev company are

[sand bison]

Community layoffs are alright it becomes iffy when you get into main devs like creative, backend and front end

[tidal flint]

If I paid $39.99 for it right now and found it to be in the condition that it is, I'd be asking for a refund.

[lime galleon]

But why did they layoff so many talented people??? I don’t get it.

[sand bison]

i dont understand why 35%

[hushed patrol]

money

[cyan verge]

I'm not happy with that statement or the layoffs. Big fan of palia, and layoffs can be necessary, but the mention of steam was. Weird. And 35% is a lot

[broken cosmos]

I have no problems out of mines

[plucky mulch]

i mean now we only have 1 community manager in here, and palia is on steam and switch..... i do not think it was right to reduce CM team here to 1 person

[low moat]

Yeah I’d really rather they make it a paid game to cover their talent. Keep their money shop but also have an upfront $10-20 cost

[tidal flint]

There are tons of issues.

[onyx plume]

based on some article it says " Approximately 49 of the staff behind the cosy MMO have been let go."

[hushed patrol]

id certainly have problems if this game costed $40 rn lmao, its missing so many qol features and plays like a mobile game half the time because you're waiting so long for resources to get done

[cyan verge]

$10 until it's polished is a very reasonable upfront cost

[wispy musk]

one CM is wild... i feel so bad for ashe 🫠 a community of over 300 000 people?? to be managed by one person 😭
