Mayor of Kinzville
I am wondering why the funny, “chompy” noise made by the pets when they eat was introduced and then disappeared again. Personally, I thought it was hilarious and would feed my pets just to hear it (yes, I AM easily amused). I would like to have that sound back.
Deluxe Day – Do we get both Golden records shown ??
I still don’t have a dock on my laptop if I leave my room and go to anything on the Things To Do list. I have to log out because there is no way to go anywhere else. I guess the Intelligent Dock re-sizing is only for desktops.
Hey guys! So my pet requests for Kinzville Academy and Quizzy’s don’t seem to be working. I got a request to go play the Learn & Play questions at Quizzy’s – I did almost 75 of them and it still didn’t register and so the quest timer ran out and my pet was sad. Same with Kinzville Academy – I took my pet to the academy and did three classes and it still didn’t register. Just FYI!
Yeah, doodlebug72898–that happened to me today, too. And I think those were about the only requests my pets made today. I haven’t been able to fill my pets’ hearts for the last two or three days….
I had a request to go to the Academy and it didn’t read it as done when completed. But then, with a different pet, it told me to take a class class, and that did work. The picture of the academy request was the clothing picture, so I tried changing clothes, but that also did nothing. Just to let Ganz know there is a glitch or two.
ACADEMY REQUEST WHOA now wait I do each of my acadeny every day so I cant do a pet request there it might ALREADY BE DONE !!
GANZ, just wanted to ask if the TV’s are working soon, because i actually loved watching chef gaspacho’s shows. I also wanted to ask what happened to Dr. quack, because he was my most favourite host in Webkinz. I really want to see him again!
II still have missing items? And a lot of clothes do not work? Hope this is fixed soon ? We pay for this PLease
And I’m sorry to say, it’s my opinion that doing job, quizzy’s or academy requests are a bad idea. The academy causes their happiness and hunger to zoom quickly to new lows, at least for me, and if you’ve already done the other two for the day, you’re out of luck. :-( These pet requests are getting out of hand.
I’m very happy more fixes have been done, but I must ask, when are the sleeping pet requests going to stop?
What if my pet makes a request for the employment office or kinzville academy but I already did my job, bonus job, three classes and extra class? I don’t want to ignore it because I don’t like seeing my pets sad :(
