which that is a bad thing, because now there will be a million accounts created trying to get these pb's that will rpolly only turn your pet green and you can't sell them anyways. And it's a random event to get t like that lol I didnt make any new accounts they were all my old ones that I still use for gallerys and all but it's like how come we can't get the luck ya know lol

It's not released yet is all, so no one can get one through a newbie pack. You'l need to wait til it is officially released, ie in the news =)

LOL, well, if anyone is making a spare account, *cough* *wheeze*I could always use a referral...*cough*username there is the same as here.. 
Seriously though...I think they were releasing them and then once they discovered people could put them in trades shut it off real quick...(since they aren't supposed to do that)

They haven't been released though. It was a jacko RE the guy got. I think they just forgot that that could happen now that the item and image is on the servers. No one was meant to get one from the looks of it.

Its funny watching people in the boards scrambling to pay big np for one. I don't know what to tell them though since apparently you can't get one from a newbie pack yet. I guess the best thing to say is that they're... semi-unreleased.
I also think its kind of funny that usually they announce a new item and forget to release it, and the one time they release something and forget to announce it its the one item that's a really big deal to everybody.

Yes, and *cough*my username is johnandadam to refer to me*cough*
Seriously though..... byafbrasil only got theirs from random event, and they haven't put no trading on it yet.
I think we should make one of those fancy huge text messages telling people that you can't get them yet.
You can't get them from newbie packs yet!
Inrun Edit: Don't yell. You've been doing a lot of it lately, and frankly it's agitating. Theres no need for it. A simple bolding of words or changing of color will do fine to accentuate your point.

The first person who got one got it through a random event - that's how people found out they existed.
But to lose 900k? Ouch :/

yeah i know.. the girl who was the first to get one traded it to that person on the link to the board that i posted above.. she bought it for 900k and she couldnt use it and it disappeared lol
edit: lol yeah I know right! I told her not to do it!

It'l be because they aren't meant to be traded. Only the person who gets it can use it I'd guess.
Well that should stop others from trying...hopefully

Unless the word gets out and is confirmed in some sort of statement by Neo - no trading, selling, auctioning - that the pb will disappear if any of those are done, there's going to be alot of scamming as people do get these absurd pb's and try to sell them to unknowing people who will lose their np and a pb.

Everyone creating a new account is a goofball. All you have to do is have 0 items in your inventory and you can get one.
Not like I'd recommend it though if you already claimed your newbie pack when you first started.

If they start doing this with better paintbrushes, and if they do end up coming from newbie packs, could you not just create an account, transfer a pet, paint it, and then transfer it back to avoid the whole disappearing thing.
Unless that makes your pet disappear

The only possible point I see with this is random changing of basic colors if you get sick of your brand new green chia after a week or two, you cna paint it blue or whatever. Or if you don't care for your pets at first and a RE turns it red from anger or blue from depression. Then you can... turn it back to green or into yellow. I don't know, I'm trying hard to see a use for these...
