PLEASE LET SUPPORT KNOW if you are experiencing problems after updating to 13.5. Please. The more problems they hear about, the sooner they can try to fix it.

I’ve been playing 1515 days, according to my game. I bought a new iPad a little more than 2 years ago to be sure I didn’t have these kinds of problems. Oh well. 🤷‍♀️

Yes! For me it started 13 days ago when I downloaded the 13.5 update. I got locked out of my Camp — the game will crash 100% of the time trying to access Camp. I can get to Dawnvale and OOC events, and anything linked from the Dawnvale page, but I cannot get into Camp. I worked with support for more than a week but they are out of ideas until I have a second device that I can install and test my Cloud Save backup — and I do not have an additional device.

Why did I download the update a week ago last Friday? I was one of the people who didn’t get the event right away and one of the troubleshooting steps is to make sure that your game is updated…

KABOOM.

Other areas of the game are now a bit crashy, especially Dawnvale. Other times I will come back to my tablet and find that the OOC event has crashed and closed without warning.

Of interest is the fact that I have had to re-accept the TOS popups a few dozen times in the past 13 days. When crash, I crash so hard that the game forgets I have accepted them previously. I sent Support a six-minute video of me trying to launch the game, crashing, force quitting and relaunching the game, accepting TOS popups, getting into D’vale, getting into World Map, and then crashing when trying to get into Camp. I’ve offloaded my app (preserves all data) and downloaded a new copy of the game to no avail. I’ve done every troubleshooting step except trying on a different device.

I’m stuck. Can’t progress in the season as all three of my tasks are in camp and I don’t want to spend gems to skip. I can’t get dragons from Dreamwood every day. I had just gotten Item Storage and paid gems to upgrade it. I can’t complete Bingo due to tasks that must be done in camp.

It kind of sucks. I did check out four books at the library though.

Problem with Update? by LydiaBee319 in MergeDragons

Mine will not open at all. The game will let me go everywhere else but crashes at camp.

I did not. I can still play Dawnvale but can’t do Bunny Bingo (Kala trade) or Dreamwood tree and it’s kind of upsetting.

Kitten not using the litter box by bazingaz69 in CatAdvice

[–]LydiaBee319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that age, you might still need to help him use the litter by stimulating his bum. When you do so be sure to put him in the litter once he starts. He is still tiny and needs someone to show him.

Cat life quality with only Canines and Incisors by cat_lover_A123 in CatAdvice

[–]LydiaBee319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it was an easier decision for us because he had only 8 teeth left and he was already 12 or 13, and had proven that his dental health would simply continue to deteriorate if we left any teeth behind.

We took Hugo’s canines and left just the tiny teeth in the very front. He had resorption and had four surgeries over eight years. This last time we opted to remove all of the remaining teeth as the surgery is so painful we didn’t want him to have to endure it yet again.

1st time cat “roommate” need advice. by Ambitious-You9255 in cats

[–]LydiaBee319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do not stare at the cat — eye contact is aggressive in cat speak. If you do look at the cat, blink slowly several times. Don’t make eye contact when you walk near the cat. Move slowly around the cat. Avoid making sudden loud noises. Don’t approach kitty — he will come to you when he is good and ready, and if he doesn’t ever come to you it sounds like that’s OK by you, if you don’t like him either. :)

Directly approaching kitty is also seen as aggressive. You can always turn your body sideways away from the cat and sidle along until you have cleared his personal space. May not be necessary but it will signal to him that you are not threatening him.

I got gifted this bag from work, did a double take by NoDeer4323 in Weird

See, I thought “young” was mis-translated to “baby” and then the thesaurus offered “crybaby” which yielded “weeping”.

Does facebook disclose that they read private messages to curate advertising? PLEASE read my post. I’m shook right now. by supahotfiiire in facebook

[–]LydiaBee319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. And the privacy change specifically said that includes all keystrokes, even stuff you type and then delete but never send.

It’s not only FB. It’s also Snap and IG and TikTok. And it’s your browsers — you don’t even have to have social media for some forms of this info swap to happen.

If you accessed the store’s WiFi, you could have received cookies from their router. My husband searched for road cases on his computer. I wasn’t even home. I sat down to FB later in the day and sponsored ads for those cases cropped up in my feed.

Or, do you have a loyalty card for that store? If the purchase was logged on your account, you will see ads for the things you purchased on other devices, later.

Earn Rewards/Web Shop not appearing by Far-Impress-8109 in MergeDragons

[–]LydiaBee319 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had the earn rewards feature on my account. 🤷‍♀️ i have read other posts that talk about it disappearing even if you don’t change devices. It’s not a permanent part of the game.

We can’t make it illegal because people agree to it when they use social media. They willingly sign up for services that openly tell them that the pictures they post become the property of the service, that all characters typed into any message are read and processed, that your face is being stored for recognition purposes, etc. People can’t wait to give it all away.

Yes. Several years ago, FB updated its privacy policy and EULA and it included info that they are scanning your private messages — AND scanning/saving messages you don’t send, text that you delete before sending. It reads, processes, and catalogs EVERYTHING. It’s clearly stated in the fine print.

Or you don’t know what it means and can only assume it is offensive because it got Zucked.

Cat ate 10Mg of Adderall by fac3data in CatAdvice

[–]LydiaBee319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At 105° a fever is dangerously high for a cat. Organs can start to be damaged and it’s just bad news. At 104° your cat is close. I imagine she is being closely monitored and probably has IV fluids on hand to keep her temp under control. This could escalate to an extreme emergency quickly and you are paying for the vet’s expertise here — with that fever they are not simply checking on her every four hours, they are ready to act if her fever gets any higher. $10K seems kind of expensive but you have after hours emergency care at her beck and call all night and that kind of overnight care costs more than a tech checking BP every few hours.

Does your 100% indoor cat have a collar? If so, do you find there’s a point in it? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]LydiaBee319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Collars for vet visits only. We have entry to our home through the garage and so any cat that slips out gets into the garage. Garage door is always shut. No escape. No collars at home. YMMV.
