Some info from the CEB

Thank to all of the citizens for your patience. I have been having some issues with my characters when I am on BABV. Seems like all the commotion causes stress to the system. My bearmail is overflowing and my stuff is also overloaded because I want stuff I can give to all my friends. We are looking at what we can do to make this work better.

I think that we never thought I would have so many fans. That is GREAT news...now how do we respond to everyone? I love to trade and try to do the best I can. I try to come on frequently for a few minutes at a time to see as many people as I can...word spreads so fast now that before we know it there are hundreds of people all clamoring for attention.

There are a few rules that will help it be more fair to everyone:

1) Try to not get all crowded together or to crowd me--it makes it BEARY hard to see who is asking to trade
2) Be sure your trading is on
3) Only ask to trade once per visit with me
4) Please, only one gift per trade--greedy is not good
5) Trade quickly so I can back and trade with others
6) Be patient
7) Don't make anyone else feel bad because they were unable to trade with me--"Bear in mind, always be kind!"
Have fun!

I love you all and if I could I would be on BABV all day. You are PAWSOME.
Thanks for understanding.

Hugs,
