    Being upset is understandable with copying, but not on a thing like THIS. It's already out there and widely popular.

    guys at the end of the day is it seriously worth getting worked up about this? if she was upset then it's really not up to you to call her 'disgusting' because she voiced HER opinion on HER design. I think you should all chill out, especially now that she's apologised.

    Stop hiding the facts...Yes she did apologise, and I can understand that she is slightly upset that you are scrutinizing the player on the behalf of her original idea. also its not about whether its 'Illegal' or not...Obviously it isn't; but rather on the moral of copying someone elses well thought out idea without thanking or even asking the player.

    Uh. She never apologized, in fact, she basically called her stupid. Wolf probably did ask, y'know. But Mae didn't have to be rude and insult her. The fact that Mae went on without even leaving her island or caring that she's being rude, is something that you shouldn't blame Wolf for. lol.

    You're saying not to get worked up about it, but look who is. You.

    Idk/idc if it's been answered, but some donors, I admit even me (rarely),think we're better than greenies because we're ranked

    I'm still waiting for the day where everyone will understand donors and non-ranked players are the same. No ones better than the other. It's just that the donor ranked players have more perks. Nothing more than that.

    Don't know how you could have saw an apology when there wasn't one. If you have a screenshot, in which I missed it, I'd love to see it.

    Like Mai said, it only adds perks. I don't see why donors would think they're better just because them or their parents paid money to get ranks and perks. Although I do see that you are admitting to it, and as long as you know it's wrong I won't hold it against you.

    Do you have proof besides your word? Do you even have a screen shot?

    Do I need a screenshot? Will it bring absolute justice to this discussion, perhaps you should play the game rather than scrutinizing players minor faults

    Yes, I believe Mae didn't have to insult like that. But I would have been slightly irritated if someone passed off an idea as their own. And although I didn't screenshot, I'm certain an apology was written
