  1. *Sips coffee* I understand your frustration of seeing repetitious creatures in every vote. Sure, it is okay to want to see something new pop up every know and then. You are more than welcome to offer that statement. But if you think demeaning others for posting the same creature every single vote is right, then you are certainly mistaken on that part. I don't know if you have or haven't ever created something like a creature submission. Nor can I judge you for not making one yourself. But what you need to understand is there are a lot of artists, writers, and other creators out there that want to show off their work. And for a game like ARK: Survival Evolved/Ascended, they are giving others the opportunity to suggest creatures that could be added to the game. And you know what? Many of these amazing people are going above and beyond to show off their work to others not necessarily just to win, but to let other fans admire their content as well as their ideas. Heck, I'm one of those aspiring content creators and it makes me happy to see others enjoy what I've accomplished. And I especially enjoy seeing the smiles of my friend's faces when people praise their work. This is something this community needs, a fun and wholesome environment. However, when you and others make comments like "this doesn't belong here" or "you've lost so many times already" or "I'm tired of seeing your stuff over and over again. Just give up", it really hurts others motivation to keep moving forward with their passions. Sure there are a plethora of other fresh ideas people have that could work, but to put people down just because they really want to see their favorite creature in the game...it's disheartening. And this creature submission vote? It is literally a game of Survival of the Fittest. The strongest or more favorable wins. That is how it has always been in nature. But that cycle of nature is easily broken by let's say...a virus. And in this environment, it is the toxicity and hatred of others that is throwing everything off balance like a virus. That doesn't mean, however, that people should give up. Despite the odds not favoring the creatures I submitted, I still let them run wild for people to at least admire. The people I've worked with on my creature have made so much progress to give others something to love, not to hate. And even though I'm in a bit of a rivalry with someone, I still like to support the effort they put in to their work because like us, they worked very hard as well. And limiting a creature to only three chances to win? It would not only ruin the dynamic of what the vote is about, but also shatter nearly everyone's chances of winning (and perhaps discourage others from not voting anymore). Just because something isn't insanely useful for PVP, it doesn't mean it's worthless. Just because it isn't what you like, it doesn't mean it isn't admirable for others. Just because something is scary looking for others who are afraid of them, it doesn't mean it can't be something for others to enjoy. Just because something has been "beaten to death", it doesn't mean you can't lift them up. And just because someone is trying their best to win, doesn't mean they should be bullied for putting an effort. I could go on with my rant here, but I want to continue with my work as well. So I'll end it in summary: Please be kind to others. We are all adults here. I want to see a community where everyone can admire people's work without destructive judgement or toxic comments. I know I have no authority anywhere, but I at least like to stand up for my friends and rivals who are doing their best to have fun in this vote. If you really want to see something new or fresh, throw a creature suggestion out there yourself. And you know something? I'll give it a vote anyway because I think everyone has some goodness deep down inside them. And maybe you'll understand why we continue to post the creatures we love. Keep this in mind the next time you decide to comment on someone's post or say something about people's efforts. I hope you have a good day. 'Nuff said.
  2. We certainly do!!! And what better way to bring in a new and diverse cat than the Giant Cheetah??? Sabers have their niche as bulky attackers, Shadowmanes are adept at specialized attacks, and so I think our cheetah would be perfect for support and traversal! Plus our Direwolves could enjoy some fun companions haha
  3. Thank you so much!!! And yeah in reservations and zoos, cheetah cubs are usually paired with puppies as both an emotional support animal and a teacher on how a cheetah should act! You’d be surprised at how similar dogs and cheetahs are sometimes!
  4. I can respect your decision. However, the idea is to get around the wasteland easily when danger is around every turn. Our cheetah is a great scout, taming assist, and giant stopper if need be. There could be the possibility to tie down the Titans, if you ran around them enough with the Tether (excluding the Desert Titan). If you have any questions on anything, let me know!
