My comment was deleted? Since maintenance I am freezing whenever I try to leave my room or switch pets. The screen gets all blurry and the account freezes up. I can’t do anything in WW. Yes, I’ve cleared cache and even restarted my computer. Please fix this ASAP.
Mine started doing this tonight.
HELP!!! Since maintenance my account freezes as soon as I try to leave my room. If I try to switch pets or go anywhere else in WW, the screen gets all blurry and freezes!! Please fix this ASAP.
A new arcade game?! :D Thanks webkinz!! I love this October! I was wondering about leaves though…none are floating by for me
I do not see the bed in the box :o.
awesome! Can’t wait for the theme!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ll have to go try out the new game!
Often my furniture inventory only goes up to items starting with p. Webkinz crashes alot or is slow or choppy.
I agree socer10. Very slow and choppy. To Webkinz/Ganz staff member(s): How are we supposed to fill our pets requests when they ask to wear or buy them “this” and there is no description or picture/graphic of what “this” is? Very, very frustrating. This happens at least twice every day. Please help!
Thanks Ganz for continuing to work on the past issues, while continuing to add all the new AUTUMN GOODIES!! Great Stuff happening in Oct! :}
I tried using coupons to buy the new clothing this morning It didn’t work. I paid full price for everything. I learned long ago to clear my cache every Wednesday before I start playing.
I thought I should add that I had a pet request for the cute cropped top and I used a coupon and it worked.
I also tried to use coupons when buying the new fall fashions, (after clearing my cache). Coupons still aren’t working in the KinzStyle Outlet.
What I’d like to know is when I’m going to see an END to pet requests from pets that are sleeping? :-(
