Just became a stag

So, my account is old enough to play as a stag. That's great, but I have a problem... I went to the "Controls" part of the options menu. I clicked the box to play as a fawn. Cool, I can be a fawn again. I realize that fawns cannot have their appearance changed for more than a few minutes, but i thought that was only fawns that were under the 30 day mark. So, I got someone to cast a mask on me and after a few minutes it disappears. I was thinking that if you have reached stag-hood and still chose to be a fawn, then perhaps you could then make the fawn's appearance changes permanent as you could with a stag. I mean, why not? You put in your 30 days. You deserve to be able to change your appearance now permanently whether or not you chose to continue being a fawn or stag. Here's the pisser, I have seen many fawns that managed to maintain masks and other appearances for more than a few minutes. I've seen ALOT of 'em. How are they managing to make it stick? I don't care if it's a glitch or whatever. I just want to know how they do it, so I can do it too. I know that you can save a set and keep reapplying it over and over, but I don't think that's what they are doing. I've sat and watched them and I never once saw that little glow that you get when magic is being cast on you.

To keep sets on fawns for

To keep sets on fawns for more than a few minutes, you have to uncheck the box that says 'Keep Running in Background". That will freeze the game when you tab out, however that only stretches out the few minutes, not make it go away permanently. You still have to reload the set.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Thanks for the quick reply! That explains alot, but I have seen a fawn that had a mask perptetually and he was active the entire time I was hanging out with him. No way he was alt tabbed.

If my memory serves me

If my memory serves me correct no masks can stay on a fawn, only the flowers and candle antlers can. Perhaps they had reloaded before your deer joined them? Other than that I am not sure.

Every now and then the game

Every now and then the game will hiccup and make something stay longer on a fawn than it should, but it's usually only on one person's screen and will go away when another spell is cast or the next time the person logs in, etc.

There is no way to guarantee that a set will stick permanently to a fawn that is moving around, except during a few holidays when fawns are allowed to keep sets, and in the (still pretty temporary) way Waning mentioned earlier.
Adults can maintain magic, fawns can't. The account's age doesn't matter, the avatar's does. Just the way it works, I'm afraid.

i wish i was a doe im still
