For once while I have been playing this game, the terrible glitches have stopped, and a member called toppledturtle had told me the secret to that--which is moving all the sliders in display to 50%. With great happiness I'm willing to say that there should be no more glitches in this game for me and that you won't have to see me black out or disappear from the game at random times. I suppose it was an overload of information for the connection or server to handle when the game was in high quality. Now it looks like I am in a dreamworld every time I go to the forest, because everything is so soft-looking and there isn't much nature detail---but I like it. It reminds me of my own mysterious flying dreams I had when I was a kid. They don't come as often anymore, but I like to be reminded of them because when I was flying, it felt good to actually FEEL the wind brushing past you and waving your hair, and looking below you and seeing multicolored cows eating the greenest grass you've ever seen in a beautifully fenced-off pasture.

I think I saw Calder's pictogram in the forest today while being Spartak. His picto was near the ruins. He had a Deer of the Dead mask, space beluga antlers, and a long/grey pelt. I introduced myself and led him back to where I was sitting with Jennie. Then he fell asleep.....

I noticed lately that whenever I log into the game, I check the frame rate and it's always around 30-45 rates per second, but when everyone else's pictos show up around the screen, the frame rate drops below 5 (once it got to 0 frame rates) and a small window pops up and says, "ForestViewer.exe has stopped working". I guess the game used to handle all the activity (or data) on the screen at once like that, but something has caused it to be more sensitive and shut down when that happens, because it's every time I log in, that it shuts down. Then I log in. Then it shuts down. Then I log in. Then it shuts down. :/ I think I slowed down the glitch process a bit by doing what Jennie told me, not to put it in a window, and not to run in the background. The framerate shows me when the glitch is going to happen, because it slows down under 5 rates per second, and the screen goes black.

This morning in the forest I saw a small red deer talking talking with a deer with a grey pelt and broken antlers, both in a hyacinth patch. Being Spartak, I joined in the fun, dancing and "mooing" and skipping. The strange grey deer ( I call him Grandfather because he looks old), looked like he was eating something off the ground without even rubbing a tree for it. I think this deer was a player in an old version of The Endless Forest. I followed Grandfather around without him seeming to mind much, but what was really strange was that he (or she) had the same picto as Spartak. But I assume that if this player was logged in, I could see what their pictogram looked like. It would probably look different than our modern pictos do now, because it was an old version of the game. Anyway, if you see a grey deer with broken antlers in the forest today, it could be Grandfather.

For anybody who has seen Spartak or Nireda glitch up all of a sudden while in the forest randomly, it its because of my computer. Or the game, I don't know. But when this happens, the deer may disappear right afterwards or stay there, not moving a muscle, and then disappear. And if someone rubs my deer, and in the game I don't rub back, it is because one or more of my buttons are broken: rub another deer, rub a tree, sniff another deer, and skip button are all broken. But I still know who you are, and my bow button is not broken. I will just press the sad button when I am about to leave or have glitching problems, which I have frequently now. This is strange because my game used to work perfectly....

thank you for understanding,

There is something wrong with my computer that lets me play with both of my deer--Nireda and Spartak--at the same time! First, the game screen goes blank and a small window pops up that says, "ForestViewer.exe has stopped working", and I log into the game yet again, this time as the alternate deer. I never thought it possible for both of your deer (if you have 2) to be seen at the same time together, but it IS possible! If your computer is as glitchy and screwed up as mine! xD

I have realized that Windows 8 operating system does not work well with old games like The Endless Forest, which can take pictures. What I thought to be me taking pictures of the game, was not me taking pictures at all. The operating system cannot store the pictures, and I've searched everywhere for them, but found none. I was not really taking any pictures at all. But I still have memories of big rabbits and giant crows and both of my fawns growing up to be deer. I still remember playing with others in the forest near the lake and "casting morph spells" on other deer by sitting in a mushroom ring. Good times, yes. But no pictures...

Today, Spartak finally became an adult male deer! He had the complete outfit--sectretary bird--on before he "grew up", and now he looks very manly! XD He was cute when he was a fawn, the antlers were too big for his head! I wonder if Jennie, Spartak and Nireda's friend, will recognize him! He is in the forest today.

Like with my other account, I'm not sure about making a biography yet. I have all the information needed about Spartak and Nireda to do so. But how? Again, not a computer person. They really interest me, though I barely know anything, even more now that I got this weird upgrade. I'll figure it out eventually, and if not I can ask TheDaninator about it. I feel like this:
ok, that's enough of the smileys. bye for now!
