@ChiffonOrange: Voltra gets really busy during events, but then dies down otherwise. I’m usually very active, but that’s when work is slow and I post all day while I’m at work. But this has been the busiest year I think I’ve ever worked. OnO
@CooperationIsKey: yes! It’s the cutest!!
If either of you is on the Voltra Discord channel you can message or ping me on there and I’ll get a notification on my phone. Then I’ll know you’re active online and try to get on Voltra.
@lina: True haha xD If they still have more events that is c:
I don't have a Discord account since I don't use it much. The only messaging apps I've used so far are Whatsapp and Line, the former is mostly for communicating with my family though ^^; and the latter is quite the same but I only used it just to buy stickers (mostly stickers that are exclusive to Japan) lol

@ChiffonOrange:
Rofl yes, you nailed it. And yeah, while I like said other site just fine, I appreciate the much more... I dunno, chill? atmosphere here.
Voltra has always had a great community.
I’ve been on every avatar site I could find over the last… idk 15 years?
Ernya was really wonderful for many years. They’re closed now though. Voltra is the only other one I’ve belonged to that’s been so warm and welcoming and accepting

@cooperationiskey: Lol. I only liked their avatar items there (though sometimes I have trouble seeing some items due to how small they are). And yep, I agree with you. The atmosphere in this site is very chill and relaxed as you're not pressured to post anything regardless how fast or slow you post. :o
===========
Never went to Ernya but yeah, I agree with you Lina. This site is a lot more welcoming than some sites at least.

Some avatar sites have really tiny avatars, which is cute but you lose any details then. And some are really big which I find less attractive, especially if they’re next to your every post. So I’m glad Voltra is more in between
Find me @ PlayWithErica on instagram, twitch, youtube, and discord.
True. It depends on personal preferences, I don't like really tiny avatars (not saying they're that bad) due to the reason you said above and as for big avatars (like Pantheon Online), it's cool although a bit distracting lol. Voltra avatars are more likely to be in medium size which I find them perfect as they're not too small nor too big to distract from posts xD
@ChiffonOrange: The big G has a great collection of items, to be sure; they've had years and years to create 'em after all. I love the art style tbh and the Art Freebies forum is a nice lil' sub community, but in general I don't participate in the bigger community (maybe occasionally when I'm super super bored lol).
@cooperationiskey: True, true. I like the variety and creavitity of their items and yes, I agree with you about the art style and I never went to the Art Freebies forum so I don't have any comments on that. ^^; That's understandable, I used to go to the Chatterbox forum or rarely the Virtual Town when I'm very bored as well but I eventually stopped going there as I'm no longer interested. Though the items in the Marketplace are overly priced and the Item Shops didn't help at all lmao
@ChiffonOrange:
I really miss the old Towns, tbh; being able to wander around and catch bugs and chat with people was fun! People would even hold events in Towns. Supposedly they're working on a new version of Towns that is HTML5 instead Flash, but I don't know if the number of people on the site these days will make it much worthwhile. The marketplace is a crapshoot; I keep stuff on my list for months to even years, waiting for that perfect price, lol.
@cooperationiskey: Ah, the good old days of those towns. I remember how it used to be very lively and people chatted more often, and considering Flash is already defuncted last year. I don't see that much people on the Virtual Towns unless they're here for afking or chatting within their group or just trolling. Yep, I agree with you about the Marketplace. I wonder whose idea is to jack up the price then expect people to earn a lot of golds or platinum in one minute, I gave up on my wishlist since it's kinda pointless to wait for a certain discount. <. <
@ChiffonOrange: You know there are people that deliberately artificially inflate the prices of stuff that shouldn't cost very much? Like they'll buy up all of a cheaper item on the MP and then relist it for ridiculous prices. It sucks. There was a cute Thanksgiving-themed item I needed for an avatar last year or the year before that got jacked up like that. I got lucky eventually but I wasn't able to do that avatar for a while because of it.
@cooperationiskey: Big oof. While I'm aware of those kinds of people, but still I hate it whenever they did that regardless of rarity unless it's an extremely rare item. And I see, I guess you have to rely on luck most times. ^^;
@ChiffonOrange: It was like a dirt-cheap item, too, I was so freaking mad. This guy--it seems to be a lot of one guy? Or one connected group? Anyway they seem to think they're providing some kind of 'service' by putting cheap rareish items out of reach of most users. Like 'poor' users don't deserve them, I guess. :/
@cooperationiskey: That sounds really unfair D: And yes, I absolutely agree with you 100%- putting cheap but rare items in ridiculous amount for users who don't have that much gold or platinum and it sounds like they're doing this just to 'troll' any potential buyer in my opinion. :vanora_upsidedown:
@cooperationiskey: Mmhmm. *nods* You know as they say money goes around and round.
I'm alright even though it's night time (and it's a rainy night instead) for me and made a Carrd.co account because I was pretty curious and bored at the same time, same can be said for Toyhou.se though I just logged in to check if there's anything else lol. How about you? xD
