Husky glitches and other breeds
Started By
When the ghost dogs first showed up, the glitch was removed very quickly, and we were told such glitches were not good for Ala (this despite glitch colors being there all around). Now the huskies are out since a long time, and we have ghosts, mood dogs, lineless and whatnot.

I have been waiting for the glitches to be removed. They never were, and I I suggest them to be fixed or allow the same glitches for other breeds, namely the invisibility. The way it is now is not exactly fair.

I do not really breed huskies, nor do I want to start. I would love to be able to have invisible shelties, JRTs, Zois and BCs again. I have a really cool looking ghost aussie.

Please, same right for every breed. Some of us really feel left out and asides, there are a lot of cool things you could do with ghosts of other breeds.

But Carni, people invested in the other breeds as well when ghost customs were usually made with the main intention to pass the ghost on. So I do not think those members would be mad at all, on the contrary. <br /> <br /> It was just fixed without even asking. That is the part that is not fair. Just because no one had time to fix the huskies when they messed up so badly, they are allowed to keep it? Then why can't we have ghosts from the other breeds back? ;(

First of all, the husky ghost glitches were obviously not pre-meditated, and were not intentional, so we're not about to intentionally copy whatever error causes these glitches into the other breeds, because it could affect everyone's dogs, such as turning a dog invisible someone didn't want to be invisible, and so on, and it would just lead to other errors and glitches that aren't worth the headache.<br /> <br /> Color glitches are different because they don't cause coding problems. Invisible/mood/whatever huskies can cause issues with accessories and other such items on the site, but we recognize that people would rather not see all the invisible huskies be fixed, so we've left it the way it is. The glitch would never, however, intentionally be applied to any other breed. Whatever happened during the coding of the huskies was a fluke, and we would never intentionally include a bug. :P<br /> <br /> We also can not mass-fix the bug, while allowing some people to keep the glitch. That would leave the bug in the system, and therefor wouldn't be fixed at all. This is an all or nothing situation, and at this point people have invested a ton of bones bought with real money for CAM items that are only fit to be used on invisible huskies as the centerpieces of the images. It is not an elitist movement that only huskies get to be invisible. They're like that through a bug in the coding, nothing more. We've already compromised and allowed people who don't want such glitches to report to the issue hub to allow the coders to fix their dogs without carrying over the fix sitewide. <br /> <br /> tl;dr = No support.

No, that is not the point. <br /> <br /> I do have glitches huskies, but ghost dogs of other breeds are nicer to have (for me and others who aren't husky fans). <br /> <br /> So if those glitches are around, why the breedism? Why can't a breeder or corgies not enjoy the same for their own breed? Especially as you'd have to buy a custom anyway to achieve a ghost dog for any other breed. <br /> <br /> It is really upsetting, at least to me, that huskies and thus their breeders get those advantages (if you see glitches as advantages). There needs to be the same rule for all breeds.<br /> <br /> And sorry but seeing it as "rude" to ask for a script error to be fixed is really weird to me. That's like saying it is rude not to create a script error I there was none... Asides, there are way too many invisible huskies around already. So you have no danger of a shortage. <br /> <br /> I think no one fixed the glitches because it would be a lot of work, or the errors couldn't be found. Not because anyone thought it was ok, because, it really isn't by any logical thinking. <br /> <br /> I was, btw, never talking about the color glitches. Those are annoying to some but they won't go away in any case.

NO SUPPORT.<br /> <br /> As an artist who sometimes uses invisible huskies for Custom Accessories, I feel it'd be extremely rude to remove the ability to breed glitched dogs on Alacrity as we're pretty much already established to have these invisible dogs in order to display custom artwork without the dog actually in the image.<br /> <br /> Saying that we should remove invisible huskies because it's not fair that huskies are the only dogs that are invisible is like saying we should remove custom dogs because it's not fair you don't have enough money to go buy custom dogs.<br /> <br /> Also suggesting that other breeds should have similar glitches is pointless, stop being lazy or singled to one/two dog breeds in your kennel and get some invisible/glitch huskies to breed because frankly nothing in life is handed to you on a platter anyway. It's not that hard to go buy glitch/invisible huskies and breed them specifically for the glitch, if it's really a huge deal that it's not the dog breed you currently have then I guess that's too bad?<br /> <br /> I have a feeling Alacrity Admins haven't fixed it either because it was pretty much established before they could stop it, or they felt it was okay to have it occur due to the creativity people were using them for, or they really just don't mind having the glitch around. I'm not completely sure, but if they had wanted to do away with the glitch they could have done it without even asking us in the first place.

I agree with Kicchan.<br /> <br /> I feel it's unfair. I would absolutely adore a lineless or ghost zoi. =)

It's not only the invisibility bug that huskies have. Huskies have it all: invisibles, ghosts, linelesses, mood dogs, mixes of them. Such have always been fixed on other breeds, if they have occurred in the first place that is. They should be fixed just the same, to prevent more of them from being born.

08-9-2011 at 4:23 AM
But that's not fair Xy. I'm worried less about the invisible ones as the ghosts. Why can't breeders of other breeds not have them? What is so elitist about the huskies? <br /> <br /> Really, they need to be fixed same as the others. It's unfair and, in the end, those are bugs that need fixing.

I'd say leave it as it is. The invisible husky glitch is great for CA showing off purposes and there are always breeders who sell their litters. I don't see a reason to have invisible shelties etc.

08-8-2011 at 12:06 AM
Yeah I meant for the existing ones to stay. I have a few cool ones, too.

Full and total support. But, those who have glitch/invisible/ghost dogs should be allowed to keep them without any change. I just don't want to see anymore glitches/invisible/ghosts being bred. They're kinda overrunning the husky breed.

Support as to the Husky glitches. Seeing one now is a regular thing on the site and mostly all husky breeders have obtained at least one or more. Although I think invisibles are great for showing off items, CA's, and backgrounds, its really unnecessary all around. The current glitched husky's I don't think need to be fixed unless the user requests it being done so, but I do think that they should no longer be allowed to produce more of them.<br /> <br /> However, I do not support the task of allowing other breeds to be re-gifted such a glitch. If all other breeds were able to pass down the ghost in them, what would be the value to them? I know for a fact that I adore my ghost GSD and feel that he was worth every bone I used for him especially since I payed the full single 16 dollars to make him before the glitch was cut off. Oh, how I would love to create more of him, yes. But due to the fact that it is not possible, makes him and all the other ghost dogs even more special in there own way. Its just not worth making the glitch active and I'm sure it would upset those who have acquired such dogs. <br /> <br /> It is very fair to those who already own ghost dogs of other breeds to keep the glitch contained is pretty much what I'm getting at.

Hmmm . . . well, let's see . . .<br /> <br /> 1) I didn't plan to have huskies, but started breeding them specifically because of the color glitches. Now that I realize you can get color glitches in any breed by using the custom tool, I don't want to start over with a different breed. <br /> <br /> 2) I have an invisible husky and I love him dearly, but I tend to see invisibility as a novelty rather than a trait to be bred for. On the other hand, I would like to try for a few ghost pups eventually, so I can certainly understand why people might want ghost forms of other breeds.<br /> <br /> 3) I would be very unhappy to see the husky glitches "fixed". My husky breeding plan is completely dependent on existing color glitches, and I would really hate to have to stop breeding for them.

Full support. Like it was with the previous ghost dogs, the bug was fixed but people got to keep their already existing ghosts. I think it should be the same with every breed. Either huskies should be fixed, leaving the buggy dogs we have but having no more of them being born, or the same 'rights' should be given to every other breed. I would prefer huskies being fixed, but either way, I don't mind much. Poll?

I don't support other breed glitches being breedable. This is currently my only settled opinion on this... I'm not sure about anything else. xD;;

08-7-2011 at 4:07 PM
I support fixing the fact that glitch huskies are breedable more then I support the other breed invisibles being breedable. Huskies was one thing, but all the dogs would just be ridiculous, and get fairly tiring to see after a while, because I'm pretty sure like the huskies have, they would totally overrun the site.

08-7-2011 at 4:06 PM
my support is towards other breeds being alowed to be invisable, not fix the huskys

No support. I love ghost huskies. And I think it would take quiet a while to fix all of those glitches. And the none purebred breeding isn't something I support either.
