Default Do you want a new Jingle Pet?

Let's have a vote. Maybe we will get one before the end of Wintersday festival.

Whoever votes "No" is just doing it to be spiteful.

I'm not exactly aching for one, as I assume some people are; but what am I gonna say, "NO! I don't want new free content!"?

Curious what kind of jingle pet people would want. Wolf? Some of them are already white....

There should be the third "I don't really care much" option.

You can only bring one animal companion at the same time, after all, and my ranger already has her Moss Spider called "Moss Hinder", as for the rest, they don't use the pet at all, so it doesn't really matter much.

I'm not opposed to a new Jingle pet, but I have zero desire for one. That is fair grounds to vote "no" - because it's true that I don't want one.

This ^

There is just no need for a new jingle pet. If there had been a "I don't care one way or the other" option I would have voted that way.

That's ridiculous.

People who vote no are not being spiteful. For example, I voted no. My main is a Ranger. I have a full menagerie. I just really am not seeking another pet. I don't use the dozens that I already have.

Would I say no to one? Of course not, but that doesn't mean I want one. So since there is no "Either way, don't really care much." option then "No" it is.

Or maybe they know that the Live Team has no active artists, so any new models or textures added to GW 1 further delays GW 2?

Isn't the completion of a new content series, 2 new quests, and an increase in all rewards enough?

What is the point of another jingle pet?

Pet builds still suck, no reward or title for capturing them all, and jingle pets are just lame copies of their original with a small red collar around them.

I'm in the range of "Why not" and "meh". It wouldn't be a bad thing to add, but not really beneficial either. And yeah, there are other more important things that I'd like to see changed/added in GW /coughdervandparaupdates.

Added a middle-option for all you whiners =P (even though I don't think you can change your votes... na na na). Now we can focus on the actual topic instead of the poll options!

Personally, I don't care at all. I don't use pets and I sort of feel that there's a limited application for them (especially for the ways in which I pay). Some are pretty cute, though...

They're cute, but I just don't see the need for another pet. There's already 2 in that tiny garden, and I kind of thought just the bear was enough Jingle action to be honest. :\

JINGLE DINOSAUR!!!

But really, there isn't need for yet another pet.... players already have plenty of options when it comes to animal companions. Plus I would rather have the live team working on things that actually affect day-to-day playing (dervish update....), instead of creating a new model or mesh for a pet. Plus the jingle pets aren't even unique (in regards to HoM).
So I vote no, unless the new pet is a jingle dinosaur, in which case, I'm all for it.

Just because I'll laugh like hell when we get one.
