Hey people.. I just came back from the forest in a sad mood. Here's why...
Well, deer are just being plain mean. And ignorant. I bow to people, and they just keep going about their own business. Here's a few cases:
I was near a mushroom patch when a doe and a stag (I think) were changing each other's antlers. I bowed to them, and they just didn't "notice" me.
Another time, I was near the pond when I saw another doe and stag changing each other's pelts. I bowed to them about twice. Only the stag responded.. after a while. The doe just kept changing pelts..
Another time, I was just sitting on my own and a stag and a doe (there's alot of stag/doe couples..) were just hanging out. The doe just STARED at me and nuzzled the stag. What the..?
This one REALLY grinded my gears: A doe that was wearing my old set!
!
She kept on running around in front of me and I think she may have been showing off..
Even a good friend of mine ran off when I bowed to him.. but sometimes he doesn't recognise me when I change my set.
This isn't right. Either people are being mean or is it because Lani is a DOE wearing the zombie pelt? I've only seen a few does wearing that. Maybe its because they think Lani is too ugly to hang out with them?
After this nonsense Lani stared at her "ugly" reflection in the water then went to sleep under her favourite willow tree... then I left the forest. I might go back soon.
Sorry if I seem a bit mean.. I'm just sad.. sorry.
I know what you mean :/ It's
Heh.. I know. Poor Lani can't

I'm sorry that this made you
I hope you feel better soon, and maybe people reading this will think more about greeting people more often in the future.
Thanks Terabetha. I will try
I do think the zombie pelt is cool.. I just thought people ignore me because it's different for a doe to wear the zombie pelt n.n
I do aswell hope people think about greeting deer aswell..

You're right it isn't one of
Yeah, it's not. I've only
You think? Thanks! I see does wearing non typical doe pelts too.. like... the orange one (heh.. sorry I need to get familiar with the pelt names) and the gazelle pelt. One doe that was being mean to me had the Angus pelt too.

Were you the doe who turned
But I think that my other deer would be happy to meet Lani <3
Haha, sorry but I don't
What did my deer look like? That would be proof if you knew

I can't really remember, but
Stupid double post - sorry
Haha, its Ok, no harm
Do you recall coming and sitting next to a doe with a skull mask and zombie pelt in a mushroom patch? A couple of fawns and a nameless were in there too I think..

Nah, Jason was sitting under
Just feel free to come by and say "hello" |D
Haha, sitting under those
Anyways, I better be off to bed. I haven't been getting enough sleep
Goodnight, the Endless Forest!

Well thats just rude! I've
Without attempting to sound
No one owns a set.
Getting angry because a deer is wearing certain antlers/pelts/masks, especially after you stated it was your deer's OLD set, is ridiculous.
No one can know everyone in the forest.
No one will or wants to walk around on eggshells when they get a spell cast on them going "Oh crap I can't have fun or wear this because someone else's deer might do it!"
As long as the deer isn't going out of it's way to pretend to be you and cause trouble there should be no reason to be upset with it.
Chances are if you like how a deer looks, other player do also.
Case and point:
There are at least 4 does with devout/real deer/noh antlers.
There are atleast 3 deer with crying idol mask/zombie pelt/candles
There are a ridiculous number of deer with real deer antlers/skull mask/dotd pelt
There are 11 deer who wear dotd/no mask/beluga antlers.
@Willet: Yeah.. people can be
@Alecsander: I'm not really saying I "own" a set, just saying that the deer that was wearing the same set was just being a little showy offy (I know they aren't words) and I'm not horribly upset that she was wearing the same set as I did before, I'm mainly making this post so people think twice about greeting deer when they bow to you..

Oh no! I'm sorry they were
I'd have to echo Alecsander's
@Widgtho: Lol, there's no
Welcome to the forest, too!
@Cyaneus: You are right, she could of meant all these other things, and there are nice does in the forest (such as 21). Some are just plain mean, too. And I know there are limited choices of sets, I was just a bit grumpy at everyone who was being mean to me before I came across that deer, so maybe I was overreacting a little. Anyways, I'm still sorry x.x.

And also, with me, the only
That happens with some people-though generally they'll be just sitting deer and not like the ones you met. D:
Hopefully tomorrow's better. :3
Hrmm.. Sometimes I don't
Sometimes I don't notice that other deer have approached me until they go right past or jump on top of me~ when you're zoomed in, you cant see -everything- going on.
Maybe some cases were just like that?
As far as "doing things wrong" , well i wouldn't say its particularly wrong per se, but...
>>>try not to assume the worst of others.
As far as IM aware, most of the inhabitants of the forest are really, honestly, not all that hostile and they're definitely not all out to get you. Do you think the deer in the forest are really that mean? ): I wouldn't have thought that a game like The Endless Forest would even attract the kind of person who just wants to have their little in-crowd hierarchy.
My Aeska (doe) wore the zombie pelt sometimes, I've never found it ugly. I dont find any pelt ugly, just different shades of colour and aesthetic icons. Everything about the endless forest is beautiful to me, I think thats how the creators designed it <3
To be honest, i've seen several posts of yours in which you seem to be a fairly sensitive, and caring person. To be sure, its not a bad thing, but then it makes me wary.. like "oh god, i just dont even want to run into that person in the forest incase I just do something that accidentally upsets them".
And I don't mean for that to upset you. You're quite welcome to approach any of my deer in the forest, and I'll respond happily, unless I don't see you, i'm away from the game, or i'm feeling miserable and antisocial and just want some time out. It's just something you should know that IM really conscious of, and sensitive around, myself.
@Ocean: Yeah, I don't mind
@Aeskan: Your completely right. I always normally have my screen completely zoomed in (unless I'm trying to keep up with the other deer or taking pretty photos) and that could of been some of the cases. Most people are nice here, and they wouldn't want to do or say anything mean. The Zombie pelt is very nice, and many people find it popular and amazing. In fact, I just saw a few does wearing it. Just before when I was in the forest. (I've changed my pelt to the real deer one now, I really like it for some reason).
I'm sure you'll never do anything wrong in the forest. Your a really sweet caring person too, and everyone feels antisocial at some point, even my talk-a-lot Lani .
