I was having problems connecting today, too--and I think some other people have had problems loading their deer's set. Sometimes the Forest is just slow, and you have to wait a little while and try again. Sorry if this doesn't help; I'm not much good at the connection stuff.

Aw, I'm sorry. I don't know why you would end up in the middle of the pond. Yesterday it took a long time for me to be able to log in, and it took four or so tries before I could load my deer's set after I fell in the water. I know sometimes the Forest has been very slow, and I can't get on at all. I hope it works better for you soon. And I hope someone helps you get your set back.

If it helps, I'll keep an eye out for your pictogram in the game. This is my deer's pictogram; if you ever see him in the Forest, we will be more than happy to help you get your pelt, mask, and antlers back anytime. Just come up to him and nod or something, then lead him to whatever you need.

I was finally to log on now, I have no clue what happened but what ever it was doing, as for sure stopped. I clicked on load cause I saved me pelt, antlers and mask before all this happened, I got everything back, and the game is running perfectly!

I hope it will work correctly for a while too, see ya in the Forest!
