There will be a slight change in the bumping rule here since this guild has started...
Please read it ALL VERY CLOSE as to not confuse and simply use it for an excuse NOT TO GRAB...
Everything will be the same as above, but because of the cap placed on booty grab even worse then before, we cut short, therefore panthers just stop bumping altogether...
Or try to deceive everyone, that they are grabbing and bumping and trying to take credit~THIS I DO NOT like to see and will NOT stand for, not only can this exclude you from a contest, but also get you removed from this guild for deception...
So there is not only school and real life holding us back, but this cap...
Tank owners just keep drowning in their own tanks more and more, not only from lack of plays, now lack of fish because they keep going higher and higher making it almost impossible for us to make any profit...
Now with the different contest ideas I have had that panthers have participated in, not only have I but other panthers that have PMed me saying, they too have seen an increase in bumps when panthers have continued to bump and so forth...
There's no secret, we all want to be grabbed and many have argued this point, time and time again, but heck yall, what is happening is, most panthers are bumping to max and stop, therefore leaving the tanks sit without notice, and when there are, it may be a minute left or what not...
Now we know bumping moves our tanks up on the list in the aquarium forms so when people go there, they can see our tank is or was glowing and they click and grab, so these people that are bumping are still helping move us up and get noticed...
So the change here is you MUST STILL GRAB and Bump, BUT WHEN YOU MAX OUT OR REACH YOUR CAP, you can STILL BE IN THE GAME BUT ONCE REACHED CAPPED YOU MUST PLACE IN YOUR LOGGED WHERE YOU MAXED OUT AND THEN ADD THOSE YOU CONTINUED TO BUMP FOR CREDIT ALSO THESE BUMPS WILL ONLY COUNT IF YOU BUMPED AT LEAST TWICE IN THAT GLOW, NOT A SINGLE BUMP, Because once you reached that cap, you can not help them out by grabbing, but now it's just by bumping and this is supportive even more so with more bumps, so make the help count...
I have thought about this long and hard on my decision, and although some may not see it eye to eye with me, I feel that it is the best thing at this time...
I do know, some are set in their own ways and I completely still respect you for however you feel, after all we all are different in our own ways and people never see the exact same thing in their own eyes and that's fine, if you DO NOT agree with me here and would like me to remove your tank from our text thread, I ask that you please just PM me and I will remove your tank...
But I (myself) and others have seen more grabs come from ppl that haven't been able to grab then a tank sit there cold without any help...
Good Luck to all with what ever decision you decide...
