New Avatars, Foxes, Bears, Cows, & Penguins Options

[Rachel Fireflare]

I got an idea for  new avatars for furcadia which is more of a species....how about Foxes, Bears, Cows & Penguins we don't have any Foxes or Bears.....I mean most people i know have to use the canine species to  be a fox and you see maybe some people would like to be bears or penguins and most people i know want to be cows. I know i think its a good idea i mean its gets old with just canines , felines , rodents , equines , lapines & musties thats why it should be canines , felines , rodents , equines , lapines , musties , bears , foxes , cows & penguins that way more people would have a choice to be what they want i only added cows and penguins because someone told me they wanted those too....

A fox is a canine.

Truth be told, you don't always get what you want. Penguins and Cows don't keep to the theme well, and remember, it has to be really good ideas since if people say yes to this, we may have to say Yes more often, thanks for those weird furres that turn things around.

A fox is a canine.

not entirely true, foxes are a cousin, but they have their own specific difference. They are only similar enough to interbreed (yes i heard of some people that have half-fox dogs).

Anyway, their species is vulpine, not canine

Does that mean lions aren't felines?

Leonine...

From Talzhemir's FAQ:

20. "Could you add [this new Race] to Furcadia?"
--Furcadia has so few Races because every new Race adds considerably to the size of the download. Every second longer it goes is a moment in which the download might fail. If that happens, the downloader is more than 50% likely to give up on Furcadia forever.
The ones we have were chosen by going over FurryMUCK data. These six covers over 95% of FurryMUCK's population. If the Internet itself changes such that bandwidth is MUCH higher for even the slowest users, then we can consider adding others. My list is topped Skunks (stretchable for squirrels, etc.), Cows, Deer, Bugges, and Avians ("Byrddes").
Although I normally appreciate input, your suggestion for what to add next will probably fall on deaf ears until all five of the above are completed and added.

The canine avatar works well enough for foxes.

I still think foxes , bears , cows & penguins would be a good.....because they are all animals and i think they should be including most people want to be cows and penguins , bears or foxes even.....

Yes, but, many still want to be 'taurs and monkeys and sheep.
Come on, let your imagination soar.....or snore?

[Rachel Fireflare]

I dunno i am still counting on foxes , bears , cows & penguins.......

[Cassiel]

At least you don't give up when you come face to face with a veritable wall of refusals.
Now wait..  That's a little bit annoying.

[Ridia]

If you want them so bad, become a patch artist and make patches for your own dreams, or patch over your dfefault if you're a brave soul.

[Tarnak]

Bear rantings coming. But I won't start it. Only support whoever makes the first one.

Interspecies breeding can occur, but the offspring is never fertile. Take a look at donkeys. Horse + Mule = Donkey, I believe, but the donkey can't have kids.

Poor donkey.

[Leticia]

Actually, the mule is the sterile crossbreed. =)

*minornitpick*

[Saturn Knight]

Actually, overs hundreds of years, mules have been finally been produced as fertile. :X

Oh yah, Rachel, STOP CREATING TOPICS THAT HAVE ALREADY EXSISTED BILLIONS OF TIMES.

[Rachel Fireflare]

MAKE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Well anyways i am not making any patches i am hoping the will make these species i mean the species we have now get boring after awhile people should think about what i posted........

[Youlanda]

You should thik about what we posted... Like the copy and paste I quoted from Talz's FAQ that has been around for years.

[Carrie O'Kaye]

You should also check out the Patch Portion of this Forum.

Because a nice person (me!) made some patches free for public use:  walking dragon eggs, Beekins, ninja-ducks, cartoony elephants, ninja-ducks, sexy Furres, cartoony penguins, monarch penguins, bears, mundane Wyrmmes, winged Wyrmmes, squirrels and bats.  I've also done a feral dragon but it looks really ugly. xD

Ah...  If only I would remember to put up a webpage on my website... about these patches...

I'm guessing you genuinely don't know this, so I'll tell you.. people have been suggesting new species for Furcadia pretty much since its first week of existence. How long is that, six or seven years now? This whole suggestions forum gets filled up with ideas (there's probably a whole bunch right now, if you'll take a look) and that's probably nothing compared to the emails DEP receives about it.

They cannot put in EVERY species that is suggested and a list of what they're going to add in the not-quite-foreseeable future has already been posted here.

So in short:

- They are NOT going to add the species you suggested, other than those included in Talz's list (and even that could be years away).

- No one is going to think about your suggested species because everyone else here already knows the above.

At least someone on this thread is polite enough to act less like an ape than Saturn Knight.

[Rachel Fireflare]

Listen stop complaining okay...........i think they need new species and i myself would love to be any of my chosen species but what makes you think they are not going to add them? i mean what if they did? what if they liked it? think about it!!!!
