I too voted No.

If they do give us minipets chances are I'll do what I did with the last ones I got.Sell em for profit.

Female Jeweled Vabbian Mesmer Armor > Minipets.

*Darcy* · Mar 02, 2007, 03:46 PM // 15:46

I voted "yes" to minipets.

And my understanding of Gaile's thread was that she was asking for ideas for the new minipets, not for other present ideas.

So poll or not, you will be getting a new series of minipet for the second birthday. But if anyone actually comes up with something decent for a alternate gift, we might see something else for 3rd birthdays.

I voted No, just because I hate getting RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing mini trolls. Out of 6 characters I've gotten 5 trolls. Biggest pile of steaming shit I've ever seen.

wsmcasey · Mar 02, 2007, 04:20 PM // 16:20

I voted NO. Minis are a useless waste of space that do nothing.

Forums are always biased towards problems/criticism/complaing. That's the truth. And this poll is also biased, it lacks options, that's the truth, too.

I do not WANT to get a present for my characters' second birthdays, but I'd appreciate any kind of gift, be it a red iris flower. I'd be happy with it. A pet? Even better than a red iris flower. People demanding special presents are greedy in my opinion, as it is a gift, after all, something somebody gives you for free. If you don't like a pet, then discard it.

So what option shall I pick in this poll? I'm really curious.

not that hard choice either yes or no

tomcruisejr · Mar 02, 2007, 06:16 PM // 18:16

No to minis. Yes to uniquely skinned warrior weapon and 100 ectos.

Hall of Fame island that show who is on their second birthday and you get a celebration and a small gift going there. Your character's image would be place on the "Wall of Fame" where it show your character's age.

You forgot the flying monkeys. You know, a thousand golden flying monkeys singing an aria composed especially for you, praising your name and deeds.

Yep. What this game needs is more flying, singing monkeys. I won't be happy without them.

^_^

I lie. Give me a mini-moa and I'll be simply ecstatic.

He is correct.

Somehow Anet is of the impression that everyone wants more minipets.

Your opening statement... gg

I'm on the no for the new minipet deal

**cosyfiep** · Mar 02, 2007, 08:05 PM // 20:05

unfortuneately it looks like our poll will fall on deaf ears as gaile as updated her thread....we WILL get another mini to take up yet more space in our already tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo o small inventory....
oh well.......minis for sale!

MSecorsky · Mar 02, 2007, 08:11 PM // 20:11

If ANet is kind enough to give my soon-to-be two year olds a present for reaching two, I'll be quite pleased. If it's a new minipet from a new series, I'll be even more pleased. I like 'em. I just wish I had a storage means, like a new tab, that would make it easy to keep them in one place.

Winterclaw · Mar 02, 2007, 08:40 PM // 20:40

While I wouldn't be opposed to minipets, frankly I've got too many as it is now.

Racthoh · Mar 02, 2007, 10:39 PM // 22:39

Ugh, if it's another mini I'm just going to trash the present without even opening it. I'd rather save those two clicks of my mouse. I know it's supposed to be the thought that counts, but since the majority just sell them anyway that throws that concept out the window.

Sir Skullcrasher · Mar 02, 2007, 10:50 PM // 22:50

Racthoh.. lets make our own Second Birthday party up in SMS Hall!

I'd just like to send a message to Anet that says "For the love of Mike, make me anything that isn't a minipet. Use your imagination, whatever, this assumption that hey, everyone wants minis, is totally wrong."

Actually, you really can't get "rich" via minipets. Only the lucky ones who get the rare ones will be making much of a profit.

Anyone who has been playing GW for a week could make the kind of profit the common minipets sell for just by playing the game.

Zinger314 · Mar 03, 2007, 02:03 AM // 02:03

Another minipet would be a major cop-out for ArenaNet.

What I have admired about Factions and Nightfall is the overall creativity. ArenaNet is beginning to lose that creativity...

Almost anything else would be better. I'd prefer an animated emote...it's proof that your character is 2 years old.

Riceboi · Mar 03, 2007, 02:08 AM // 02:08

I voted No. How about instead of mini pets there is birthday costumes? Basically it works like the candy corn or elf tonics (but this will have unlimited uses), your character will change it's appearance. The costume can be any character's skin (friend or foe) in the game. I think it would be cool to see all kinds of random characters walking around outposts.

Yawgmoth · Mar 03, 2007, 02:27 AM // 02:27

This vote isn't that obvious for me, because that ANYTHING but not minipet can be pretty crappy. A cool rare new-series minipet can be much better than most of other possibilities...
That's why I'd prefer a minipet unless that other thing is better/cooler than it.
