birthday minipet - Guild Wars Forums

yeah I know there was a thread about this a long time ago.....

one of my characters reached her birthday on saturday ( /age 12months) and has yet (its wednesday) to receive her birthday mini....I know that this has happened in the past, but my question is how long did it take for those whose mini's were late to get it? (I havent been playing her so there was no chance of my accidentally deleting or selling it ....I just was checking her to see when her birthday was and when I typed /age it said she was 12 months old, but no mini has appeared in her inventory as yet).

Now the problem hasnt happened with the 2nd birthday gifts as my 2 year olds got theirs a few day early! And my other factions characters have gotten theirs in a timely fashion as well. I just wonder since the nightfall ones will be hitting the one year mark this month as well.....

any positive feedback is welcome.

is your inventory full? I had this issue once o.O

nope, belt pouch is completely empty as is half of the first 'bag'....more than 25 free spaces.

I remember the other thread you are referring to and it was mentioned that it may come a few days late, but not to worry.

/age seems to be funny anyway. My monk is currently my oldest character, about a month older than my warrior. They both turned "two" and got their presents on the same day.

I had checked once a day when it was close on just the monk, the day I got it I logged into the warrior to see if it had changed to 23 months yet - it had *also* changed to 24 months and I had a present. So one of them was a month off (their /age is where it is supposed to be right now), it was also possible the warrior got his even earlier as I didn't check.

I think it is just a stress on the system, the /age command is not very reliable. I think it has something to do with a stressed delivery system or something of that nature as there is no telling how many people have characters turning 1 and 2 on a daily basis.

i got mine first gift about a week late by my estimation. i figured it would show up eventually =D i guess that is why presents are surprises

Just be patient it will eventually show up, but if you hit your 2nd bday and it still hasn't shown up then there's something to worry about.

Can't remeber the first year ones if I got them late
but the only 2nd year one I got 2 weeks ago was 4 or 5 days late.
I kept checking /age
