Non of my projects are urgent, I’m on vacation!

[celest maple]

why must i be broke? 😭

i just wanna commission people to make art for me

[pure badge]

Ayyy! Hope it's going good uwu

[sly matrix]

i love the blacksmith art assets for the game

[obtuse dock]

Nice me too! I'm working om making a small 3D scene with those assets 🙂

[celest maple]

i don't think that pfp is appropriate

scratch that, it ISNT appropriate

mine is SFW, yours isn't

okay, if you have problem with that then take it up to mods

you're saying it as if i'm not aware what my pfp is 🙃

not exactly

yes, it is, what about it? 🤨

[pure badge]

Hey, guys! Stop this.
Go read the first rule in #809856950111830046

[sly matrix]

guys, please take this discussion out of palia chat

[celest maple]

yeah yeah, i know, i was just saying their pfp might break rule 2

[pure badge]

Let the mods decide

[sly matrix]

^

again, stop discussing this here

[celest maple]

okay

🤨 🤚

did someone say some?

what are you hoping to achieve by stating the obvious?

no, because if i was a mod, i wouldn't be a random 🙃

[spring rivet]

Please take time to read our server rules #4 and #10.

[sly matrix]

i can't wait to be a blacksmith in Palia

[celest maple]

i have no idea what i'll do tbh 😅

[pure badge]

Can't wait to be a friendly witch!

[sly matrix]

Carpenter/Blacksmith with the gathering profs that match for me

[celest maple]

Google: did you mean friendly mushroom witch?

[pure badge]

Perhaps :3

[celest maple]

[pure badge]

Thanks :3

[sly matrix]

[sly matrix]

i toads realized that from the start

[spring rivet]

Apologies for the slight inconvenience earlier pals, please feel free to vibe with Palia topics as you wish 🦆

[celest maple]

hehe ''toads''

[sly matrix]

[celest maple]

[spring rivet]

[celest maple]

[pure badge]

It's cool! You did your best as soon as possible!
Also... We got to look at the butt xDD

Kidding! Kidding.

[celest maple]

better be, xD

[sly matrix]

on how many roads does a 🥭

[celest maple]

idk, lots

[pure badge]

It is very cute, yes!
I hope there will be frogs in Palia

[celest maple]

why did the chicken cross the road?

[sly matrix]

to get to the otter side

[celest maple]

otter side? haha

[sly matrix]

aaaaaaaaaaaanyway

i need more palia reveals

i want EVERYTHING xD

[celest maple]

i want 10 million euros, but i won't get that either 😢

[sly matrix]

why not 200 million?

[celest maple]

bit much

10 is more then enough

[heavy dew]

Hey.. Ducky.. psst

What’s your thought on frogs in Palia? Will they be part of the pond patrol?

[spring rivet]

you can be a member of the pond patrol by heart, if you care enough for Palia's welfare

[heavy dew]

Oh boy do I!

[celest maple]

i want newts in the game 😭

[ocean reef]

Hi Palia Peeps, just got to my chair, but got to go shortly to do a late brekkie early dinner, bright and sunny in London uk

[spring rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/wink-gecko-smile-lizard-happy-gif-10796374

[celest maple]

is this a hint? 😳

[heavy dew]

I think it’s agreement ;3

[celest maple]

oh

[ocean reef]

Frogs will be in Palia, they are great little creatures and can sing round the Ponds and Lakes.

[celest maple]

sing?

[spring rivet]

nah I mean, I'm not a dev lol I just generated a gif that says "newt"

[heavy dew]

Maybe we get super salamanders like the one in frozen

Only they can prevent forest fires

Or cause them, I suppose

[celest maple]

can we put lil wings on the newts? make em lil dragons

[heavy dew]

I think the newts would like that

[celest maple]

i think I

would like that

[spring rivet]

sounds great! please feel free to add it on the #game-suggestions channel

[celest maple]

made a suggetsion hehe

[spring rivet]

hope to see you and the dragon newts in Palia!

[celest maple]

to what extend is the character creation?

[spring rivet]

Illummise — 06/04/2021
How diverse will the character creation aspect be? i.e. multiple eyes, purple skin, etc.
[S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021
We want people to be able to have enough variety to feel like the persona they're playing as can be created, but we are still sticking to humans in our art style at least for now

Link: #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha message

[celest maple]

hmmm, maybe we could buy a cosmetic pack that allows us to use magic to change our appearance

[spring rivet]

I just wanna be THE Duck in Palia

[celest maple]

the one and only duck? no others?

lol

lol, i just wanna be a metamorphmagus, allowing me to change my appearance (with commands that only metamorphs can use)

probably too much to ask for the 😔

[sly matrix]

that sounds a bit out of the way of what Palia seems to be looking for

[celest maple]

hmm, probably

just wishful thinking, hehe

[spring rivet]

I'd pay a million ton of pebbles for any potionmaker to make me a potion that turns me into a Duck, if it's gonna be a thing

[vital wyvern]

does this game have a target release?

[celest maple]

nope

[remote latch]

Some more character customization quotes: Sarigar [49] — 06/05/2021 Will there be a lot of character customization? [S6] BuscoBear — 06/05/2021 This will be insanely diverse

We want you to be able to customize your character to be you. Lots of options on style, cut, color, shape and they're all interchangable.```
```[S6] Eris (he/him) — 06/04/2021
i think you'll be happy with how we do things with customization, especially if you're into colors in hair```
```[S6] BuscoBear — 06/03/2021
The Alpha only scratches at the surface here. Lots of customization options coming! ( They might mean Pre-Alpha based on time frame ) ```

[celest maple]

Xrystal, how does one pronounce your name? 🤔

[remote latch]

Replace the X with a C

[celest maple]

ah, oki

[remote latch]

The only time frame we have is less than 2 years and 7 months. About half way through the average time taken for an MMO game

[celest maple]

the guy who's video i got recommended explained it that you don't choose your sex, just create how ever you want it

[remote latch]

Yep, that is true ... all outfits will fit together regardless of what body style you use .. you don't choose the gender but you can pick a body type to suit how you want to look. So you could have a male body type but no restrictions on what outfits you wear so can wear a skirt/dress even a bikini if that is an outfit option available

[celest maple]

wait, i can DM the video if you want, i didn't really explain it as well as he did

[remote latch]

its cool the devs explained it as well 🙂

[celest maple]

alrighty!

[celest maple]

but yeah, this was basically what i meant, and it's a super great idea!!

[remote latch]

There is, as a general idea, "body types" for character customization. But these do not identify your gender pronouns or limit interactions.```      ```[S6] WizardCrab — 06/04/2021
Without commenting on marriage, the relationship system isn't limited in any way by a player's gender.```  ```[S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021
You don't choose a gender or pronoun, just a body type``` ```[S6] Neleimour — 06/03/2021
Yes! You'll be able to romance the villagers and they all have unique storylines attached to the relationship system. Romance is not tied to gender, so everyone will be able to romance their favorite NPC.```  ```[S6] BuscoBear — 06/03/2021
We're trying to avoid male/female. You choose a body type and all the customization options are tailored to fit all body types```

hi Officer Quackie McQuackers

[heavy dew]

Morning Xrystal!

[celest maple]

i mean, very good idea to avoid gender stuff

[remote latch]

hi Berry

[celest maple]

means you don't need to worry about people not being able to do what they want

I have 12 welcome scripts in a notepad .. I randomly pick one 🙂

They’re all wonderful! My favorite is the chapaa chuu

For those that want to read that one here's a link to an earlier post of it: #💬│palia-discussions message

[heavy dew]

Yeeeees!

[remote latch]

For any of the others a search for Welcome to Palia should come up with all of them

And any of my vacation adverts image posts should appear with a search for From your sponsors

[heavy dew]

It’s almost like you organized it

[remote latch]

🤣

[heavy dew]

Most curious.. I do say

[remote latch]

Hmm .. PNN > Newspaper > Sponsors > Makes total sense I would start with that 😛

[sly matrix]

all i want is a 🥔

[remote latch]

But it does help me find them with my phone if I need to post anything like that .. but the vacation posts are all unique lost track of the numbers - Ah 14 posts so far 🤣

[left cradle]

Ducks in palia? I laid a pretty solid argument in the submit your question channel this month, I can’t think of a reason why not

[heavy dew]

I find comfort in knowin, no matter what development, we’ll always have Ducky in Palia

[sly matrix]

Momo?

I plan on running my neighborhood in Palia like a season of Succession

[abstract rover]

i plan on running mine like north korea

[ocean stone]

What kind of community events would you have? I guess this question is to both of you

[buoyant heath]

I'm thinking military parades, shows of force, demonstrations of cultural excellence.

I'm just spitballing for csr here

i thought it might be fun. fireworks in the form of atomic mushroom clouds

[ocean stone]

I was about to ask if they actually just make glitter go everywhere

Cuz that is something you could never recover from.

[abstract rover]

no that sounds too happy

happiness is outlawed

[ocean stone]

I secede from this neighborhood

[abstract rover]

your loss

[ocean stone]

I succeed

[remote latch]

🤣

[abstract rover]

tbh i'm excited for Palia and all but i always worry that it'll be another one of those games that i play once for the novelty and then lose interest because of my short attention span

[remote latch]

That’s my worry as well. I jump between projects quite a lot. My family tree research is the only constant. I can spend hours on that .. a game ? 5 mins to 1 hour depending on my mood and boredom level

[abstract rover]

yeahhhh same. yesterday i spent hours on minecraft just working on projects... and other days i can spend 5 minutes punching a cow and get bored

[remote latch]

But as they say there is no short/long/right/wrong way to play Palia so even if I play a few minutes at a time I’m cool with that.

[abstract rover]

loner attention spans are fun as hell

[ocean stone]

I tend toward playing games as solo, and I think I'm allowed to say that i enjoyed playing the pre-alpha whether I was only hopping on for a short amount of time or for a longer period.

[remote latch]

Yeah you’re safe saying that 🙂

[ocean stone]

Usually I ended up sucked in though so what I intended would be short periods ended up lasting longer than I meant. Time flies when you're having fun

That is probably the most cliche thing I've ever said in this discord, if not my life, and I am ashamed

[abstract rover]

sucked in... VACCUUM CLEANERS IN PALIA CONFIRMED?!

[remote latch]

Yep. I’m erring on the side of caution based on how the many other games I’ve got over recent years…. I play constantly for about a month then more and more sporadically as time goes on

[abstract rover]

wanna know the sucky thing for me?

[remote latch]

It sucks?

[abstract rover]

Terraria is my favourite game of all time. i tried playing it a couple days ago. i lost interest in 5 mins.

this is how you know there is a problem

[remote latch]

Yeah. Planet zoo I played 600 hours or more during beta and another 500 in the 2 years since. And over the weekend anniversary special event I played for a total of 2 hours at most. 🤣 The factory game in my phone ? Seemingly several minutes every few hours 🤣

[abstract rover]

yep i feel

[remote latch]

But… depending on the extent of the crafting/gathering/trading aspect in Palia it may be a game I regularly come back to after the initial play experience

[abstract rover]

idk ive figured it might be a mild depression setting in. where things i love no longer hold attention, always tired, bored. hate work. t-t
and yeah i agree, if palia manages to be really intuitive with certain aspects then it might be what hooks me

[remote latch]

I like the choice aspect … chilling or crafting or adventuring …

[abstract rover]

yeah like minecraft xD

[buoyant heath]

As for me, I plan on having three main seconds-in-command who are continually fighting for control of the neighborhood, but I never intend on giving it to any of them

[abstract rover]

lmao, like a treat on a stick dangling above a treadmill

[alpine dawn]

are you sure you are not just Megatron?

[ocean stone]

With three mains, it only makes sense there would be a lot of seconds. 🍽️ You could call them: The Leftovers

[abstract rover]

tacos

[remote latch]

And after The Leftovers .. you could have .. The Trash Bandits

[ocean stone]

So that's where all my missing Tupperware lids have gone...

[remote latch]

🤣

[abstract rover]

if we gonna talk about missing tupperware lids

we gotta talk about the lids never matching the containera

[ocean stone]

Can we have Tupperware in palia and how cluttered can I make my house with mismatched containers

My neighborhood shall have Tupperware parties

[spring rivet]

I just want a pretty neat basket so I could Trick or Treat for pebbles everyday

[ocean stone]

I wonder if there will be Basket Weaving in Palia

[remote latch]

That would be cool

Reed gathering from the water side

[spring rivet]

This should be Yeet Or Treat

[buoyant heath]

Spoken like a true moderator

[wispy meadow]

Dadjoke! Ahh I haven't seen you in ages

[sly matrix]

sounds like a sad life, having not seen any dadjokes for ages

[keen latch]

You should have been here when DadRuu was released, Dadjokes for weeks

[wispy meadow]

I was here

I just have been on hiatus from most online stuff for a while

[remote latch]

hi Ana, Smigel, Jingle

[rugged seal]

Meep I don't wanna work today. Just wanna go home play animal crossing and knit.

[abstract rover]

agreed, work sucks

[dusty jetty]

Hallo ma friends

How are u?

doing great! how are you?

[dusty jetty]

All right! I’m waiting for another Beta to play

[carmine relic]

hi Ganbit

[surreal crest]

ITS TIME TO GO HOOOOOOOOOOOOME

[abstract rover]

im jelly

4hr left

[wispy meadow]

has not been home in 2+ years now
:')

[carmine relic]

What situation must you have been in to not be home for 2 years?

[remote latch]

I was wondering if it meant moving out of the family home .. I did that for a year and then came back 🤣

[carmine relic]

Maybe. Either that or stranded in space

[remote latch]

yeah that too

[rare saddle]

I don't have a "back home" to go to, unless it means moving from Alabama back to California.. where I had lived most of my life. My home is my home 🙂 I bought it 3 years ago and am slowly transforming it into my own space. Entertainment room is done, guest bathroom is (mostly) done, going to work on the front room and kitchen next. Soft green, tan, burnished bronze, and slipping some steampunk in where ever I can!!

[buoyant heath]

The good news is that Palia can be like home for you.

With an actual home to be in

[rare saddle]

SO much easier to design... a LOT less manual labor!!

and real money expense.. lol

[remote latch]

hi Garnet

[rare saddle]

Hey! how's everyone doing on this fine day/night? 🙂

[remote latch]

the usual .. lurking here 🤣

and trying to resist the urge to by the new dino game on day 1 of release 🤣 must wait for sales

[rare saddle]

I know, right? it's so hard to wait for sales... lol.. what dino game is that?

My son buys games, then twists my arm into trying them ;P he's gotten me hooked on a few games that way. lol

[remote latch]

🤣

[craggy drift]

W e

[ocean reef]

Sounds good

[rare saddle]

does that count as arts and crafts? I can share before and after pics 🙂

[ocean reef]

In Arts and craft I should think so, it's all art.

[rare saddle]

I painted and decorated, it's just a larger project than most arts and crafts.. lol

[ocean reef]

Besides we'll all enjoy seeing them.

[rare saddle]

cool, I'll post them in a few, in the arts and crafts room.

[ocean reef]

Good I will take a look

[brave thorn]

Happy CHUUSDAY everybody! Let the Chappa emotes fly!

[surreal crest]

just paid rent and bills... Ayayay it hurts

[rare saddle]

I know, right? one moment, you have cash in the bank, the next there's an echo in the vault... yeah, if only we could keep some of that money ;P I have plenty of things I could spend it on!! My house, mostly!!

[surreal crest]

I wish I could buy a flat...

[celest maple]

rent and bills, i don't have to worry about that yet

[surreal crest]

it sucks where I live. I earn 5.000 in my country currency and the rent is 3.000 + bills (around 350)
Good thing I have 2 roommates but still

[rare saddle]

My disability back-payment covered my down payment on the house. Otherwise, I could never have bought a house. And I love my house, fixer-upper though it is 🙂

oh my gosh... that's a lot... housing is supposed to take only 1/3 at the most of your income.

[surreal crest]

Welcome to Poland

You can't have nice things when your gov is basically ex KGB agents

[rare saddle]

oof... I had relatives a few generations back that lived in Warsaw.

And they were Jews during a very bad time for Jews.

[surreal crest]

Yeah once I earn enough money and experience I will move to US. You just can't live here

[rare saddle]

There's a lot of very expensive places, here, too.. lol.. be careful where you move to!

[celest maple]

right, move out, it's my house now /j

[brave thorn]

Perhaps we should steer this conversation back toward Palia. When we get our virtual home, do you think we will have a loan to pay off, just like in Animal Crossing, and if so do you think we will have a happy dance for when we pay it off?

[celest maple]

hmm, maybe we could buy a plot of land and build a home ourself?

[rare saddle]

I would definitely have a happy dance.. lol... shoot, I'd expect there to be some need to level up/earn coins to buy upgrades to the house.

I think that's kind of how it works?

[surreal crest]

Yeah I know but imagine that flats here are like.... 700.000 for 60m2. I have to take a loan for the rest of my life to afford that, like most people do...

ah right, Palia, sorry

[rare saddle]

you'll especially appreciate your new palia home 😉

[celest maple]

hmm, anyway, imma invite my sister

i think she'd love this game

[surreal crest]

Tell her chair says hi

[celest maple]

lol

[rare saddle]

so, @surreal crest , when you design your new home in Palia, what style will you go with?

[surreal crest]

Magic wood everywhere. Purple and gold

[rare saddle]

oooh... sounds rich!! and... wizardy.. lol

[remote latch]

How we get our lot is up to the villagers I believe the quote was…. Hmm rent / purchase / in exchange for work on a regular basis?

[rare saddle]

rent to own?

or... work to own? barter?

[remote latch]

Here’s the link : #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha message

[celest maple]

ya'll, i made another suggestion in #game-suggestions

oop, i feel like i killed the chat

[rare saddle]

no, you didn't... I just went to look at your suggestion 🙂 monster potions, eh? no transformations, just boosted abilities? and then use the pots to decorate your property.

[remote latch]

Nah a short break in chat isn’t killing it 🤣

[celest maple]

yeah exactly, tho maybe a transformation could occur during something like the full moon?

[remote latch]

I’ve been lurking with no chat for over an hour before.

[celest maple]

the pacific punch potion could transform you into a pirate and you'd get a stat boost in looting maybe?

I can definitely see chappas as a final boss

[stone tulip]

We need this as an emote, chapaa in a box

[remote latch]

King chapaa final boss with little chapaa his minions

[carmine relic]

Nah, not the king, just a chappa. Like a random one that just stumbled onto your property

[heavy dew]

I’m on an emote making spree, I can give it a try if no one else wants to

[stone tulip]

I kinda want to try XD

[heavy dew]

Do it!

[remote latch]

You try sandre 🙂

[carmine relic]

Aye, you got it!

[stone tulip]

Ok I shall try the chapaa in a box

[heavy dew]

I believe ^^ it’s an adorable idea

[stone tulip]

Reminds me of cats

[remote latch]

Yeah

[heavy dew]

You know that head tilt dogs and cats do when they’re curious? That’s what I’m working on atm! Speaking of cats ^^

[stone tulip]

Nice! :D

[rare saddle]

From your sponsors at Silence Is Golden Collective comes the latest in vacation spots around Palia. Looking to escape from the ratrace that is work ? Need some relaxation time before dealing with the kids ? Then look no further. Coming to you in the not too distant future : Escape to Palia. All are welcome, spend as little or often in this beautiful place with friendly villagers to wile away the time you spend here.

[winged topaz]

Does this mean new people will join palia now?

[remote latch]

Well, we have people joining the server on a daily basis .. my post won't make a difference there .. its just a fun post I make periodically 🙂

[winged topaz]

Oww ok

[vast cradle]

looking forward to an actual chill game to play

[remote latch]

Alpha is due by the first half of next year. We don't know how many will get a chance to access it .. but it will be many more than pre-alpha which was 1400 people.

[vast cradle]

We can wait, rather have a great game than a rushed one

[winged topaz]

Best of luck to me 🥶

[winged topaz]

Yeah that's true.. Dont want another broken game like cyberpunk

[remote latch]

The actual game is currently slated as being ready in less than 2 years and 7 months .. that's an on target time frame for an mmo game. So far so good.

If you've ever wanted to help steer the game with features, you can make suggestions in #game-suggestions. They do check them out so you never know .. if it works and they like the idea it may get added down the line.

[winged topaz]

Then i would relly appreciate if i can get chance on alpha.. 2 year is really a long time to wait

[remote latch]

Yeah, we are all waiting. Some of us have been here for 5 months and not been one of the lucky ones. So we're all in the same boat. So just make sure you sign up and do the survey.

[winged topaz]

Yes..already done

[vast cradle]

I'm usually not one for pre-release hype, so I leave the alpha slots to the people that really want to help 🙂

[remote latch]

🤞 good luck to all of us 🤞

That's cool. If you haven't checked the channels out yet .. #❔│game-faqs and #❓│old-team-answers-alpha are the best places to start out for info and #🌠│official-art for visuals.

[vast cradle]

I've been over most of them, I'm a master lurker

[winged topaz]

Having a chance to suggest a feature on a Top quality game is really cool

[vast cradle]

Indeed

done a few pre alphas previously. It's always neat to see how devs respond to suggestions. Some are long enough that you can see the game as it grows over time.

https://tenor.com/view/mean-girls-mean-girls-movie-yes-mean-girls-yes-gretchen-weiners-gif-23184345

I keep forgetting gifs are not unfurling here ;-;

[vast cradle]

haha

[winged topaz]

I really hope palia feels something like minecraft where players really belongs around there creativity rather than other typicall hack and slash MMO

[vast cradle]

use the built-in gif function instead 😉

[remote latch]

definitely not a hack and slash game so you're okay there

[fair dragon]

evening peeps hope everyone had a wonderful day and yeah palia will definitely not be a hack and slash typa game

[vast cradle]

good evening sir

[remote latch]

The best description is a community sim mmo

[fair dragon]

hiya its nice to meetcha! its Ms tho

[vast cradle]

I'm hoping for something along the lines of what Everquest Next tried to do personally

[vast cradle]

My apologies for the assumption, nice to meet you too

[fair dragon]

its quite alright its probably the name lol

[remote latch]

Well with Palia .. so far we know there will be skills to level such as hunting, fishing, cooking etc and there will be a mystery to solve so some exploring/adventuring type thing to do. And then there is the social side of things. What you do is up to you once you have gone through the initial intro quests. There is no right or wrong way to play 🙂

[safe bluff]

do y'all think they'll give an option for pets and/or mounts?

[remote latch]

They have pets and mounts on the road map so if not at launch at some point after

[safe bluff]

woo

[vast cradle]

Let tamers tame and train rare pets, then let other players run their own pet stores for people to go and get cool kitties and the like

[safe bluff]

I just wanna ride one of those weird deer

[remote latch]

All cool ideas .. animal husbandry ( raising animals ) is a topic in the devs office so you never know. And they know we want taming so 🤞

The deer are called sernuk

[fair dragon]

same i want one as a pet T-T

[safe bluff]

I would name mine dave

[fair dragon]

mine would be called owl dave is a solid name btw

[vast cradle]

find an alchemist to make a minification potion and then have a mini-sernuk as your pet and a grown one for your mount

[fair dragon]

thats a good idea write that down guys write it down

[remote latch]

This is where the #game-suggestions channel comes into play .. think it out and add it to the channel 🙂 you just never know

[vast cradle]

my thinking may be slightly affected by the fact that my DnD druid is currently starting a pet shop in my current campaign 😄

[violet crypt]

good evening peeps

[safe bluff]

howdy

[remote latch]

hi Noooooootk

[fair dragon]

SUP NOOTK HOW YA DOIN

[vast cradle]

Good evening

[violet crypt]

howdy!

[violet crypt]

IM WONDERFUL, HOW ABOUT YOU

[fair dragon]

im doing swell im glad youre doing wonderfully

[violet crypt]

thats good to hear, hows busy life coming along?

[safe bluff]

so is the plural for those weird deer sernuks or?

[rare saddle]

learn something new every day... 😉

[remote latch]

sernuks as far as I know

[fair dragon]

its going pretty okay im getting less busy slowly the more work i do but i know thanksgiving break i will be super busy T-T deadlines for college applications and stuff

[safe bluff]

I'm making apple pie for Thanksgiving

[violet crypt]

you got this loki! make sure to not forget to rest some though on thanksgiving break

[fair dragon]

oooou i have never had apple pie man T-T

[fair dragon]

ill try ill set an alarm and everything 😤 and thank you

[safe bluff]

the hardest part is the peeling n cutting of the apples

[violet crypt]

you never had apple pie?!? someone get one for this girl!

[fair dragon]

you surely do 😎

[fair dragon]

please i really wanna try it one day ill ask my parent if we can get some just to try it

[violet crypt]

i dont eat one often, but man they are really good, at least the ones ive had

[safe bluff]

granny smith apples are best in pies; if you want I can share my recipe

[vast cradle]

apple pie is delicious, go for it

[fair dragon]

ahhhh the hardest part for me would probably be putting it in the oven and not burning it i like burning food everytime i cook it T-T

[safe bluff]

but watch out! the main power rests in the crust

[fair dragon]

i would love that!!

[vast cradle]

You'll get better with practice. Everyone burns their first few attempts at cooking

[safe bluff]

I just hang out in the kitchen while it bakes most times

[fair dragon]

thats definitely true!

[fair dragon]

totally understandable i do it while my parent is cooking mostly to talk about games and show them videos but its totally understandable

[violet crypt]

you dont wanna know how it went with the first time i tried cooking biscuits 😅

[remote latch]

🤣 that is so like me and my mum 🤣

[violet crypt]

homemade ones, not the cans. can biscuits are pretty easy haha

[fair dragon]

what happened share in the other chatter chat

[flint spindle]

Hey! Has this game been released to the public yet?

[remote latch]

no not yet .. less than 2 years 7 months away is the time frame we have at the moment with alpha by the first half of next year

[flint spindle]

Thank you

[gloomy vine]

ayo back from hibernation

[violet crypt]

got some yummy chic fil la

[wispy meadow]

Does anyone else ever have that thing
Where you wake up and get a drink
And water just tastes wrong somehow?

[sly matrix]

water always tastes wrong

goodnight

[marble hedge]

Water never tastes wrong at 3 am. It tastes like life

[gloomy vine]

when you havent drank water in like a week it taste like heven soo

[wispy meadow]

How are you still alive ?? I thought you died in three days if you don't drink water?

[gloomy vine]

well theres water is other stuff like food and stuff. im just very dehydrated...

[wispy meadow]

Ahh

[gloomy vine]

I forget to drink water most days

i like water but i forget

[wispy meadow]

How do you forget?? You get thirsty right? Just drink every time you get thirsty.

[gloomy vine]

honestly dont know. sometimes i just get so into playing a game or doing a craft that i just dont and sometimes i just ignore my needs, i forget to eat sometimes to. like the other day i went all day with out eating till my friend texted about her dinner and i just had a light bulb flickering on moment where i was like " oh ya thats a think i need to live. "

[celest maple]

Never had chic fil a, but I heard they are Incredibly homophobic

[upper haven]

I've had this and sometimes your body doesn't tell you you're hungry/thirsty when so engaged in what you're doing.

[celest maple]

Just don't eat it, it probably isn't rely good anywah

[wispy meadow]

You feel like the human version of a tamagochi.... How are you able to stay alive like this I have no idea.....

[celest maple]

Who?

[wispy meadow]

Ghost

[celest maple]

Oh

Love the pfp btw Anakerio

[wispy meadow]

Thanks

[gloomy vine]

it not usually super bad just sometimes. plus my freinds always help me to rember when it is.

[wispy meadow]

You have good friends :)

[celest maple]

Anyway, imma go to bed, it's 2:38 and for the last 2 days I have been getting drowsy while at school, so toodles

[wispy meadow]

Night!

[gloomy vine]

i do indeed, very thankful for them

[gloomy vine]

goodnight

[gloomy vine]

nice talk but i myself am gonna go for now as well. gotta study, bye

[frail ridge]

Dunno, I don't pay too much attention to business politics, but food is too yummy to pass up even if they hate me.

[carmine relic]

[ocean reef]

Hi Palia peeps just got to my chair

[celest maple]

what? you had to crawl to it?

[ocean reef]

Not very mobile I have Multiple Sclerosis.

[celest maple]

I hope we all can play the Alpha next year 😁

[ocean reef]

Just had my pet fix, now checking something else , showing off ,now discord on view using two monitors now

[celest maple]

ah

[exotic wigeon]

hello o/ I hope everyone has a wonderful day today!

[ocean reef]

Yes I think we are all looking forwards to the Alpha, fingers and toes crossed everyone.

[blissful shard]

i just found out about this yesterday and im already hoping for it like all the time

[exotic wigeon]

I found out about this 2 minutes ago, I'm very excited to see more!

[celest maple]

i found out monday

[ocean reef]

Well welcome Andrewgunn this is a good place to be while you wait for Palia

[regal swallow]

I also would like to see more Palia Pioneers

[blissful shard]

Thank you i have read almost everyones bios and what not and this seems like a lovely comunity

[regal swallow]

[celest maple]

i invited my sister, but she said that she didn't know if she'd like ir due to her short attention span

[ocean reef]

Yes a friendly bunch here

[celest maple]

which is weird, as she seemed to have a rather good attention span when we played a mc modpack together

which made me think ''are you just saying that so you won't have to say you don't like it?''

[remote latch]

Tell her that there isn’t a required game time 🙂 And it doesn’t hurt to keep an eye on a game and decide later if it’s one of those games she just doesn’t get.

[ocean reef]

Off into lurking mode, things to do.

[regal swallow]

[celest maple]

hmmm, i guess

[remote latch]

Has she seen the announcement video yet?

[celest maple]

uhhh, which video?

[remote latch]

It’s on YouTube but you can get the link via #📢│palia-news

[celest maple]

hmm, i did send her a video about it, the one i got recommended

[remote latch]

And it’s on their website so worth asking her to watch it and read the blurb on the website

[frigid wagon]

Good morning Palians!

[celest maple]

Xrystal, i was about to ask you in your pfp, i thought it was a selfie 😭

[remote latch]

Rofl nah just a picture I drew the other day

[frigid wagon]

It's beautiful.

Henlo!

[buoyant heath]

I'm very popular, as it happens.

[blissful shard]

i foudn out abotu it yesterday and ill be checkign my email everyday hoping for a alpha code lol

[tall pivot]

lol

[rare saddle]

it'll be a while.. first half of next year 🙂

[violet crypt]

lurking Nootk

[celest garnet]

Haha just found out about the game and sincerely I think is awesome

[tall pivot]

sameeeee

[heavy dew]

Same honestly, but currently no testing is happening and alpha is scheduled hopefully first half of 2022

When they sent out the first waves for pre-alpha, I’ve never used F5 so much

[buoyant heath]

I think you probably have a few months for that, but I dig the enthusiasm

[rare saddle]

welcome to the Palia community, Kurogane!

[tall pivot]

i cant wait

[blissful shard]

im getting out of the military in may so hopefully around then so i can put all my time in that

[celest garnet]

Thank you @rare saddle

[tall pivot]

yooo nice

[heavy dew]

Fingers crossed! Im getting a long break in my studies in may-June so I got that period in mind

[blissful shard]

ive always wanted to test/repot bugs to help a development team for a game so im stoked and hope i get picked

[buoyant heath]

Congrats! I feel like Palia couldn't be more opposite from "The Military" in general

[rare saddle]

me too, I've never done it before, and I think it would be so fun!! I missed the pre-alpha, wasn't picked 😦 but I'm hoping for the Alpha!

[blissful shard]

thats why i love games like this lol

[heavy dew]

Gotta have some contrast?

[buoyant heath]

Same

[celest garnet]

Me too, hope that I can join and help the game, so much hopes on it

[heavy dew]

🤞

[remote latch]

David Attenborough Voice And in the undergrowths of Palian Society we have a lurking Nootk watching the proceedings from his hidden location

ooh lots of people arrived after I went downstairs waves arms hiya everyone

[violet crypt]

someones gotta be that guy that lives in the woods and farms honey amiright?

[blissful shard]

oh oh oh thats me

[raw quarry]

Welcome back from downstairs. Is PNN a guild name? Not heard that one yet.

[blissful shard]

get me away from society lol

[remote latch]

thanks Spooky .. PNN is my hope for a Palia News Network .. whether it will amount to anything once the game goes live is unknown 🙂 For now its just a joke based on a few comments about me being a magical roundup newsperson 🤣

[raw quarry]

I just had this image of your in-game char behind a desk doing sarcastic news reports

[violet crypt]

hey we need this to happen, who else am i gonna bring honey for their tea in the morning before the news report

[blissful shard]

bahahah YES

[heavy dew]

THIS JUST IN.. Einar caught a fish

[remote latch]

🤣 Oh, you have read some of my posts then 🤣

[blissful shard]

like a town cryerr

[remote latch]

Read All About it .. Auni delivered a letter

[raw quarry]

This just in, mischievous chappa has nicked distressed towns lady's sausages

[heavy dew]

Hear yee hear yee! The chapaas ate the mail again! Read all ab.. crap

[buoyant heath]

I'm a full on supporter of the PNN

[rare saddle]

My best (only) news source for all things Palia!

[violet crypt]

i as well

[remote latch]

Based on the answer to my question it is highly possible that there could be ( even if on a website ) a central newspaper that covers news across all the player servers ... because we are all connectable.

[raw quarry]

I wonder if we'll end up with a legendary player that everybody knows, like Zezima on Runescape or something

Like an ingame idol

[heavy dew]

Once the game releases, people start streaming and what not, I’d say it’s likely

[rigid latch]

D##

[buoyant heath]

I assume that everyone will be able to see my castle looming on the horizon, no matter where they are

[remote latch]

Also, because everyone is reachable .. someone could advertise on server 1 who never saw anyone from server 2 .. then someone on server2 could connect with them by name and a new server connection is made. As an example of what it could do.

[heavy dew]

And then we get this one infamous character that swings from server to server, and you as the head of a newspaper can try to catch this guy

Where have I heard this before..

[remote latch]

🤣

[raw quarry]

Ok now I imagine Xrystal chasing them around with a microphone, like a Scooby Doo chase scene from side to side

[remote latch]

🤣

[rare saddle]

magnifying glass?

[heavy dew]

CARE TO COMMENT?!

runs after chapaa as it flees the pie theft

[raw quarry]

Guys I just realised something that caused me an existential crisis

What noise does a Chuu make? Like cows go moo, chuu goes... ?

[violet crypt]

Xrystal runs vigorously after the character HEY WAIT A MINUTE, I NEED YOU TO ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS!

[remote latch]

Xrystal + runs + vigorously = impossibility

[violet crypt]

youd be suprised as to what people can do to get a scoop on something 😉

[heavy dew]

I imagine little peeps, like a raccoon, squirrel or red panda

[remote latch]

yeah little chirrups

[heavy dew]

Or.. what the fox says

[buoyant heath]

It goes chuu

[remote latch]

I have them chittering in my story

[heavy dew]

Chittering! That’s the word

[raw quarry]

Chitter, I like it

[surreal crest]

I don't know but I know what sound train of chuus does

[heavy dew]

Nyooooom?

[surreal crest]

Chuu Chuu!

[heavy dew]

Ah! Of course, silly me

Chapaa chapaa chapaa chapaa chuu chuu

[raw quarry]

I can't believe I didn't see that coming

[surreal crest]

It was simple, but well executed 😎

[remote latch]

ooh PondWatch is finally official 🙂

[surreal crest]

figured it sounds better

[heavy dew]

You mean you pondered?

[surreal crest]

🥁

[remote latch]

:sigh: and the puns begin .. alt tabs

[buoyant heath]

Pondwatch sounds a bit like a 24/7 webcam for observing water fowl

Why, by the way, I'm very much in support of. I want that to be something in my life.

[cinder temple]

I look forward to the Cryptids of Palia Tumblr page.

[remote latch]

hi Simmy

[cinder temple]

Good timezone, young Xrystal. pipe

[raw quarry]

Actually genius concept, we should spread rumours of weird myths when the game comes out

[remote latch]

You mean like King Chapaa who leads his minions .. or the Forbidden Forest where something strange is happening ?

[raw quarry]

Yes exactly, or the giant 10 foot long goldfish in the lake

[heavy dew]

Chapaas are real, I saw one near the store yesterday

[remote latch]

ooh don't tell Alannah that

[surreal crest]

Pondwatch reports no activity in Zone 3

[abstract rover]

good morning pals :)

[surreal crest]

hello

[abstract rover]

first hour of my day flew by without a hitch. i think it'll be a good day :)

[remote latch]

And now you jiinxed it by telling us 🤣

[abstract rover]

lol i hope not

nothing can be bad with a lil bit of Palia!

[cinder temple]

You joke, but I once encountered this very thing in the otherwise calm pond of a cemetery. I was admiring the view when suddenly this huge orange shape swam up along the edge of the water, just far enough down that I couldn't make it out completely. It was so fast that I almost fell in.

[buoyant heath]

No offense, but Zone 3 is a huge let down

[surreal crest]

hey I'm only watching and reporting
Zone 3 will gladly welcome your contribution

[remote latch]

ooh .. sudden thought .. what if .. if we had auction houses, seeing as we aren't tied to a server to play, does that mean auction house items will be available to every player and not just the server that the player was on at the time of selling

[buoyant heath]

That would be ideal, I think.

or .. maybe, we only buy/sell/trade in person via current server connections .. today you sell to Timothy .. tomorrow Timothy is on another server ... another use for PNN to provide buyer/seller connections

[buoyant heath]

Oh, I see what's happening now

How much of a cut does that matchmaking service take?

[remote latch]

two possibilities .. 1) global auction house system .. 2) advertising to find customers/sellers .. and no .. no commission 🤣

[abstract rover]

[ocean stone]

Timezones! What are they?!

[rare saddle]

here, it's 8:26am!

[ocean stone]

My timezone is: it's Wednesday, my dudes!

[ocean reef]

14.30 here in London uk and it's been raining and I'm in lurking mode, but still keep up to date on the chat. Must remember press enter.

[rare saddle]

a bright and pretty day today, but in the 50's (f, not c)

[ocean stone]

Yeah it's about 52 f / 11 c here. I'm an hour ahead of garnet. I'll try and get you the winning lotto numbers sometime, garnet

[buoyant heath]

Happy Climate Zone everybody

[ocean stone]

Is your climate zone the freezer?

[raw quarry]

20 to 3 in Bri'ain

[buoyant heath]

My climate zone is 🌋

[ocean stone]

So you're not a meat popsicle then huh

[buoyant heath]

I'm multifaceted

[ocean stone]

More like, you're melting

Will we have volcanoes in Palia?

[sleek vault]

Is there any update on upcoming beta??

[fallen summit]

nope, so far we're looking forward to the alpha that will be coming most likely in the first half of next year

[raw quarry]

Well I'm free all day today if the devs want to take the hint wink wink

[sleek vault]

Ok thnx ;)

[night matrix]

I'm so ready for this game... nothing out there is holding my interest and I just wanna fish and make a farm!

[raw quarry]

When were the last updates about how fishing works anyway?

[remote latch]

Most of the information is scattered around the #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel in the archived channel area. No further details on how it works since

[scarlet wagon]

Good morning friends

[zealous python]

I've been inactive lately. Is there a date when its coming out yet?

[buoyant heath]

Less than three years

[scarlet wagon]

Lmao

Don't jinx it joke

[remote latch]

Well now its less than 2 years and 7 months 🙂 but yeah still roughly the same time frame

[abstract rover]

y'all wanna know what's edgy?

[remote latch]

A box ?

[buoyant heath]

A razor?

[abstract rover]

things that are edgy.

[raw quarry]

That punchline was edgy morelike

[abstract rover]

no u

Did you know that every human that inhales oxygen will die at least once?

Did you know that every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes?

[buoyant heath]

Not in Palia. They said there's no health bar.

[remote latch]

🤣

[abstract rover]

Did you know that every time a human speaks, they have spoken?

[remote latch]

csr's on a roll 🤣

[cinder temple]

Did you know that every time news breaks, it has broken?

[abstract rover]

Did you know that every time someone says the word Palia, Palia is mentioned at least once?

[heavy dew]

Did you know that the ocean actually contains more droplets than there’s people?

[spring rivet]

Ohh really

[abstract rover]

Did you know that if you live, you have been alive?

[heavy dew]

There’s more airplanes in the ocean than submarines in the sky

[buoyant heath]

I think we get the format of the joke.

[abstract rover]

Did you know that every criminal in history has drank water?

[raw quarry]

But the water had a Fabergé egg in it which the criminal swallowed and pooped out later

[abstract rover]

Did you know that a house can house?

ok im done. i had fun with that

[remote latch]

🤣

[abstract rover]

i like tacos.

[remote latch]

Well hopefully there are tacos in Palia 🙂

And hopefully we will get our first tidbit of info regarding cooking and/or music today

[spring rivet]

A TacoBell-lia

[cinder temple]

Chacos. Not made with Chapaa, but for Chapaa. Very small. Perfect for grabby little bear-beaver-possum hands.

[rare saddle]

Fish tacos. Because we can fish!

[spring rivet]

It'll be bite size for us

[cinder temple]

Just imagining an orderly line of Chapaa (this is the only thing they'd be orderly for) waiting to receive their chaco at the window with a Duck just hanging out about 6 Chapaa from the front.

[spring rivet]

Fall in line!!

[heavy dew]

Simuel

[cinder temple]

You.

[heavy dew]

They can also yodel in the orderly orderly orderly queue

[remote latch]

🤣

[heavy dew]

I had too, it was there

[spring rivet]

What does the Chapaa say?

[heavy dew]

Is it just me that if we make chapaa tacos: “chacos” that sounds very similar to the French “accuse”? XD CHACOOOS

[spring rivet]

Chuu chuu chuu chuu
Chuu chuu chuu

[heavy dew]

Cha cha cha chapaa!

POW!

[remote latch]

The Chapaa Chu Train is a coming

[spring rivet]

Chuu fits

[heavy dew]

I choose chuuuuu

[raw quarry]

Question, why are Chappas such good kissers?

[heavy dew]

I’m scared to answer

Cause their lips don’t chap?

[raw quarry]

Because they are always using chap... stick... chapstick. fireworks go off celebrating the joke

[heavy dew]

I mean I was on the right track haha

[raw quarry]

Yeah nearly had it

[remote latch]

I was thinking .. nah .. it won't be about chapstick surely .. I was wrong 🤣

[heavy dew]

Chuuurely it won’t be

[cinder temple]

Say, Berry, why should you always wear a jacket when visiting the Palia Discord?

[heavy dew]

To confuse the 3 chapaas in a trenchcoat

[cinder temple]

You want to be comfortable around all those chill vibes.

[heavy dew]

Hmmmm

[rare saddle]

d'oh

[spring rivet]

Eyy I know the reference lol Bo-quack!

[heavy dew]

Hit the road, quack, and don’t you come back no more?

[remote latch]

🎵

[cinder temple]

I've been trying to evict Turtle and Duck from my property for months. They always come back.

The turtle, I'm sure, gets in through the mail slot. The duck, I have no idea. Vibrating through the molecules of the walls, probably.

[heavy dew]

Ducky is that phobia that it’s always behind you, but he’s always visible, you put him outside the door, close it, turn around, and there he is in your house again

“Quack”

[spring rivet]

You can't resist my cuteness!

[cinder temple]

Begone, you flat-footed cutie. I mean demon.

[spring rivet]

Imagine if I'm a Pokémon, I'd say "Duack"

[heavy dew]

As long as you don’t explode when you get stressed like a certain other duck

What do ducks even stress about? Current events?

[raw quarry]

I grew up in a farm, ducks are fun to chase

[carmine relic]

"Look out, Duck!"
"What- OW!"

[abstract rover]

heh...
"Donald, Duck!"

[remote latch]

Donald looks around . what ?

[abstract rover]

it would be funny to say to someone named donald if something was gonna hit him lmao

[somber crag]

Cough, cough.. remember to keep this chat related to Palia, and use #💬│off-topic-chat for everything else... cough, cough.

[celest maple]

lurks

[abstract rover]

no

[spring rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/nope-nah-hi-bye-duck-peek-gif-17741222

[remote latch]

🤣 it was .. kind of .. an extension from Simuel's discussion of ducks and turtles invading their home 🤣

[abstract rover]

lol imagine trying to keep this channel palia related

would never happen

[spring rivet]

this is me peeking around lol

[celest maple]

we need a fox, then you have me 😏

[somber crag]

I SAY THIS RESPECTFULLY, I SWEAR... but I think that mentality is part of the problem. It really isn't that hard to switch to another channel, and it's worth trying to stick to it since admin staff made the request. >.<

[celest maple]

it's not hard, people just don't care

[abstract rover]

how dare you try to respect me!

[celest maple]

anyway Anner, i love your pfp 🥰

[abstract rover]

xD but i get you anner

thing is, palia has the tendency to divert conversations into tangents, especially when it can relate to real-world things, such as the ducks

[remote latch]

This I do agree with .. and I am sure Quackie, Snappie, Daphne and the other mods would put their foot down if it strayed away from Palia for too long or too much 😄

[cinder temple]

This here, this is what happens. And I believe little diversions are totally fine, so long as we remember to get back to Palia in the end or divert discussions to other channels when they carry on. So far people seem good at self-regulating, but the little nudges (from mods or users) help as well.

The goal is to always have a place where people can gush about Palia without feeling like they're interrupting something else.

[somber crag]

I was just saying it as a gentle reminder, y'all. Since we had been talking about ducks for a minute. And thanks, @celest maple ❤️

[rare saddle]

gush - gush - Palia - Love - Chuuuus - gush - gush!!

[abstract rover]

anyway, how bout that (Insert non-palia topic here)?

[ocean stone]

How many shimmerflies does it take to light up a room?

[olive ether]

hey

[remote latch]

1 because they are so bright ?

[olive ether]

what's the release date for palia ?

[spring rivet]

just one

[rare saddle]

we're looking at 2 yrs 7 mo

[remote latch]

less than 2 years and 7 months for release ( so far known ) with Alpha by the first half of next year

[rare saddle]

oooh.. you beat me to the alpha bit.. lol

[olive ether]

oh, thank you

[reef karma]

hello :3

[abstract rover]

never enough

[somber crag]

Ugh, anytime they share concept art, or official in-game sneak peaks... my heart explodes. ;~; It's so pretty.

[surreal crest]

OHOHO YOU DIDN'T EXPECT ME AT THIS TIME OF THE DAY

[remote latch]

You home already ?

[surreal crest]

not yet, still fighting with bugs

[remote latch]

Those bugs just get everywhere I swear they breed

[heavy dew]

I concur!

[surreal crest]

Devs: FIXED!
us: nu-uh

[heavy dew]

Devs: spends years and years building a game you can enjoy for a long time
Speed runners: nu-uh

[stone tulip]

Speedrunners spend hours reading the map those devs made so technically they appreciate every ounce that the game has and know it well enough to speed run it 🥁 imagine a cymbal emote here

[heavy dew]

You know what

That’s actually true

I got no argument

[stone tulip]

XD

I thought you were going to go off on a tangent with me XD

[heavy dew]

I mean that was the plan but I blanked because it’s a solid argument xD

[stone tulip]

Fair enough! XD

[heavy dew]

The plan was to act really mad but I’m just gonna admit defeat

[stone tulip]

I mean, I purposefully ruin jokes by replying with a straight answer to get people angry for taking the joke literally. I get yelled at frequently XD

[heavy dew]

Same, big same

[stone tulip]

👈👈 Aye!

[heavy dew]

“9/10 dentists recommend” - then why would I get it? They don’t make money if my teeth are in good shape

[brisk meadow]

This is the way

[stone tulip]

Yus

I'm trying to find an example of times where I've done this but I can't remember exactly how it went. Darn my goldfish memory

[surreal crest]

Devs: releases some new feature
me: seeing 15 bugs we logged forever ago but they were never fixed
me: sad QA sounds

[celest maple]

QA?

[surreal crest]

Quality Assurance. I'm vidya gaem tester

[celest maple]

ah yes "vidya gaem"

[surreal crest]

yes yes, gaems much

[celest maple]

my favorite

[surreal crest]

oh thats nice
looking for work?

[heavy dew]

How do you feel about working for a salary of garlic bread?

Because, that I can pay

[surreal crest]

I can give you 1/25 of a tester for that

[heavy dew]

There go the Christmas bonus.. :c

[celest maple]

yes, i'm broke as heck

[surreal crest]

nah, it's usually minor stuff. But ya know, you never look the same at the game you test. The only thing you see are BUGS BUGS BUGS

[surreal crest]

Wanna work in my team? All you need to do is move to Poland C:

[celest maple]

i'd rather not, it would mean being even farther away from my partners (yes i have 2)

[heavy dew]

I’m confused doesn’t everyone..?

OH I READ PARENTS

[surreal crest]

partners, not parents

[celest maple]

partner, not parent

[surreal crest]

YES I DID TOO LMAO

[heavy dew]

That’s what I get for slyly reading while cooking

I do apologize, carry on

[cinder temple]

You makin' me a Chapaa pot pie?

[surreal crest]

DYSLEXIC MINDS !

[heavy dew]

I think Elvis wrote that song, right?

[heavy dew]

NO! EATING! THE CHAPAAS!

I’m making you Catalan fish stew..

[celest maple]

guys, i think the convo strayed from Palia a bit too much 😳

[surreal crest]

ah righty right, we can't do that anymore

[heavy dew]

To #💬│off-topic-chat durudurudu

[surreal crest]

and thus, that was the last day of #💬│palia-discussions

[remote latch]

Okay caught up on the chat.. but must have missed some Palia sentences 🤣
