This topic is something I think we should all remember.

When I see a deer bullying a nameless stag, it makes me sad. I know that they can come off as trying to pick a fight with you, but honestly, they are probably just testing out the actions.
The Nameless stags are the heart of the forest, if you think about it. Everyone starts as a nameless, and they gradually grow to be something wonderful. The Gods made the nameless for a reason, to show the people who are testing out the game, the wonders of our forest. All I ask is that everyone please respect them and welcome them into the forest with open arms. There is a person behind that screen, and they have feelings, just like you. c:

Well it seems that the Universe has given me another factor to dampen my playing of the Forest )x I recently got a job working from 9-5, which took away much of my playing time, and I was excited to get my laptop the other day, because it would make late-night playing easier and more comfortable. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the Forest runs significantly slower on laptops (at least, I don't think it's just mine).
I've been playing with the settings, and I'm having to sacrifice a lot of stuff I would rather not (namely the nature detail. I had to get rid of the treetops )x sadsad). Also, I had to set one of the sliders to "Show some other characters," which also makes me really sad. So, if Ette or Eros are acting strange or seem like they're ignoring you, I assure you that they are not! They probably just cannot see you, and they apologize in advance for any hurt feelings. And, even with most settings low, I'm still getting around 12 fps with no other deer around (before I was getting around 5, and 2 or 3 with other deer around).

Sigh. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I was hoping this wouldn't happen, since my laptop is an entertainment/gaming laptop and is supposed to have a pretty good video card. Ahh well. I guess playing laggy is better than not playing at all. No more spellspam parties for me, though )x And it looks like I'll never get to see an Abiogenesis, unless one occurs when I'm home from college and have access to the desktop.

(also, I'd like to thank the kind deer that helped Ette get one of her sets the other night. Unfortunately, I didn't get a screenshot, and I don't remember your picto, but you know who you are.)

I was going through the forest today. I'm young but I know that I say a human. It was small and had red on. She seemed care free and she did not speack. I followed her to a large wolf. He looked hunger. Suddenly the human jumped on the wolf. Thats when I ran off. I hope she is ok.

(Comment on the short story!!!)

I recently got this game and when I play and get a new item like a mask, it soon goes away. I had a splicer mask I really liked and now it is gone. I have not been getting ride of them. WHAT'S WRONG!?!?!?!!?

Hey guys, what do you think about necklaces that half of the proceeds go to Tale of Tales and the other half go to a wildlife charity organization?

I'd need some help deciding on a few things about this:

1: Which charity should benefit? I've decided on the World Wildlife Fund, who look for solutions to problems in habitats and work to preserve them. They also are advocates in conserving the animals on the endangered species list. (One idea I have with them is what they call a symbolic species adoption). Maybe next time, if I do another batch of these, I could donate to the Defenders of Wildlife.

2: How much? $10 - $5 towards ToT and $5 to the charity per necklace. My thoughts were that if we could raise $25 from the necklace sales, I would add $25 of my own money to make it a $50 donation toward the charity. What do you think? I also haven't decided on shipping yet, either, but it would be very low.

3: Should there be a special name for this project? What do you think about the name "Twin Leaves Conservation Fund"?

Here's what the necklaces look like:



And here's a closeup of one:



They are made of the following:
A pewter leaf pendant
Green pony beads
Glass spacer beads
And the lace is made from black woven hemp that is surprisingly soft!

Thanks for looking, and please comment, even if you just want to say if it's a good idea or a bad one! I really want to help both this community and wildlife, and I thought this would be a great (and fun) idea!

whenever i play the game i am a regular unnamed deer! Why? Is there a log in in the game? I need help!

I'm new here and my English is not very good *blush
My real name is Tatyana and I live in Kiev (Ukraine). And it's my first deer Aetrin =)

He likes to change his image. And he dreams about Zombie Set.
He likes to play around pond and in the Playground, to play with other deers and fawns. He's very communicable deer =)

Yeah xD another bunch :B

I cannot remember for how long I've been on TEF, most likely two years or more, but I've finally decided to start blogging about it.

When I finally decided to register my deer I spent a long time searching for the perfect avatar. My personal preference was something symmetrical and simple - elegant and instantly recognizable. After many, many clicks of the refresh button I was finally rewarded with my avatar the single horizontal line on top supported by a single undefined stem and offset by twin diagonal branches on each side. To me, my avatar resembles the character of an up-side-down tree: the roots hidden in the stratosphere and the branches brushing the crust of the earth.

Since Phase Three I prefer to play as a fawn - this makes it easier to imagine that my deer is a doe. My favorite flower in the forest is the red poppy and I choose to adorn myself with these flowers. Each session I drink liberally from the pond and enjoy a meal of fungus and pine cone. I'm awaiting the day when the berries on the bushes in the Birch Forest become edible. I like to jump through the Spring to turn red and I really should pray more often to get that luminous white coat. I like to impose my magic on the first deer I run across that acknowledges me. Maybe I am being rude, but I do like to spread the magic.

Well, I think I should get some sleep, so I'll cut this post short. G'Night.
