Agreed and on other terms, the game just isn't fun to look at.. I hated going into a zone to see messed up pixels and such, only to wait for everything to load and it would just be porn images and such.

Just a terrible game that somehow became huge 0.o

Ahh it's not an MMOG but an "MMO" basically a large 3D chat room and people can try to make a little cash too.

I like the fact that you've basically got 100% character customization. If you can dream it, you can be it.

I DON'T like the fact that everything costs in there! I wish I could find a game with that level of char customization that DIDN'T cost an arm and a leg to get.

Haha, nice website.

There ARE a lot of good free things, type in "free items" in the search bar and go down a few, there are a few great spots!

sounds like something i must try out XD
i like furry island xD at least the sound of it =3
but yeah... if everything costs it's kinda crappy... but it is "realistic" =F reminds me of a pic where a guy stares out of a window, a keyboard on his lap.. and it has text like "Life, worst game ever"
