Check out the Message Center!

As you’ve probably noticed, we added a Message Center to your Dock in Webkinz World. Be sure to check it out, because you can do the following things there:

1.   Use the Friend Finder to find a friend (and invite them to join your Friends List). You can do this by using the “Friend Finder” button on the bottom right hand side of the Message Center. You’ll see a list of possible friends and you can choose whether or not you want to add them. You can send 8 Friend Requests per day.

2.   Receive requests from your friends for Challenge items. Challenge items are things a friend needs to complete a task in a Challenge. To ask a friend for an item, just use the ‘Ask Friend’ button next to a task when you’re doing a Challenge. (If you don’t want to wait for a friend to send you an item, you can just buy it from the eStore.) You can only send one request per friend each day. Remember: Challenge items don’t appear in your Dock, they only count towards the goal in your Challenge task.

3.  Send a friend Challenge items to help them complete a Challenge task. Remember: when you send the item, it counts towards the goal in the task; it does not appear in your friend’s Dock. So, if you sent your friend a Candy Cane Cocoa, your friend would be able to go to their Challenge and see that they needed one less Candy Cane Cocoa to complete their task. They would NOT see the Candy Cane Cocoa in their Dock. 

It doesn’t cost anything to send a Challenge item through the Message Center.
