I’ll start:
If Ganz made cars for us, we’ll probably have to make do without radios or air conditioning until some future date yet to be announced.

What would happen if all the webbies starting talking, crying and making all kind of silly noises.
When is this change taking place? Today is D-day?

I read some of the posts I couldn’t read them all, I will go back again.
I guess it is a little too late to ask for advise and suggestions about getting ready for the big change.
There are always so many glitches when Ganz changes stuff, I am kind of worried.

The new challenge Webkinz X
I started it on a couple of accounts.
Maybe I should have waited to get credit for it in the new Webkinz X?
Just wondering, if doing it now will make any difference.

Tower: ” that’s because we did maintenance and haven’t put it back yet. But don’t worry you’ ll be fine to land”

Ok .. so I refreshed the WW main page. It loaded fine except the ad at the top is now displaying … I clicked the log in and a full screen page loads .. sort of .. like the regular log in page but … only the boxes to type in show and no background images. I filled an account info in and clicked submit. It starts like it is going to load … the ads on the right hand side of the screen are there, like before but in the large area it has the loading bar, that keeps loading and then like a new pages starts, same as before … different ads and the loading bar again … quickly … but nothing more than that.
I am a rebel and daredevil ..
Mooo

So i used IE to access the log in page … did that, clicked log in and a mostly regular actual log in page shows up … I log in … ok … lots of glitchy things though … and it is frozen now.

They are updating amazing world at the same time, usually it is the next day. Huh you would think they had enough to deal with. Maybe better during than after when they will be busy putting out fires since AW is a normal update. They already changed the wheel this month and added a new zing hopefully just background stuff. Off to take the girls to art and the library. Maybe some news on webkinz by the time I get back. Good luck to the ganz techs.

What would happen if Ganz made Baby Dolls?
We would receive one as a gift, name it and nurture it and love it and treat it like a real baby. Then one morning we would wake up and go to pick up our beloved baby doll and it would have: a bald spot, a missing leg, an eye stuck shut, one hand with all the fingers missing except the middle one, and an evil grin. We would scream and runaway in horror vowing never to play with the evil looking doll again.
Until, one day we’ll walk by and notice maybe that grin isn’t so creepy after all. We will pick up the doll and style it’s hair so the bald spot is covered, gently pry the eye open, swaddle it in a blanket so the missing leg doesn’t matter and remove that last remaining finger and put a bandage or a mitten on it. Then we’ll fall in love with the doll all over again and forget all the bad stuff because that’s what you do when you love something.
Let’s just face it were all too invested to just walk away now. sigh

Dear Webkinz Fans,
Two years ago we came up with an idea. An idea to make some big changes to Webkinz.com to prepare it for its second decade of online fun. That idea, was affectionately known as Webkinz X.
Our goal was to give your pets more life and more importance in your day-to-day Webkinz play, and furthermore reward you for being a great caregiver to your family of pets.
After two years of hard work by the Webkinz team, including many long nights and weekends, Webkinz X has arrived.
What you will see is just the beginning. Over the next few months we will be dramatically increasing the ways to increase your Family Score, and teach your pets new requests so that you have more ways to care for them. It’s going to be a lot of fun for everyone, whether you’re a collector, a gamer, or just like playing in the room.
This first release of Webkinz X does have some issues. We have not made a release this large since… well since we first launched the game 10 years ago. Included in this release is a completely rewritten My Room. This new Room has built from the ground up to give us the ability to add new, exciting features to the Room, many of which you’ve been asking about for a long time.
As part of this rewrite, all 17,000+ items in Webkinz World had to be reworked for the new Room. While we got most of these items to work, some are not 100% perfect yet. Some items are not animating properly and other are missing their images. We know that these will be of concern to you, so we have a team dedicated to making these items right, and we will be making regular updates (every few days) until every item is done.
Please use the links below to see which items are not working properly. These pages will be kept updated with the latest information, so check them regularly.
Additionally, some popular features are currently disabled (Pet Actions) or changed (Gardening) as we continue to make improvements to our new Room. All of these features will be returning to how you know and love them.
Thank you for your patience as we make these important and exciting changes to Webkinz World. The future has arrived!
Cheers,
The whole team at Webkinz World.

I really wish he would warn me about this stuff. Here have a expensive electronic device with no idea what you are doing and no instructions, try not to mess anything up.

will take some getting used to; personally will need to re-do how I ‘play’, pet needs to stay in avatar quite awhile to reach fullness for points or whatever it is that gets the prizes. so no more switching out pet for each activity/daily. 🙁 simply finding the activity/daily in the new ‘window’ in a timely fashion will take a few days to get used to also.
dock will ruin eyesights if not fixed asap. 😯

What a job!
Filled up heart on a couple of accounts for one webbie.
The prizes come in the same order, I don’t have that many webbie, but people who have over 100 should get lots and lots of prizes.
The worse thing to me is waiting for your webbie to request something, that hearts fills up fast when you answer their requests.

Good morning everyone. Too many posts to go back and read. I am already frustrated with this new webkinz.
Nearly all my clothing has been stored in the AW treasure chest storage boxes and I can’t open any of them. The rattan storage boxes work fine. I don’t do facebook so I can’t post there about the issue.
The room map has NO scroll bar so I have to put my cursor on the map and drag it around to find all my rooms.
Agreed that the dock is so small I find myself squinting to see what is in there.
Ganz never ceases to amaze me in launching “bigger and better” before all the glitches are worked out.
I can downsize the rooms but they don’t stay that way.
I realize it is going to take some getting use to but I am beyond frustrated at the moment.
What a great contest this is. Can’t wait to see who wins.
Okay, I need to go smack my “dammit doll” around before heading back to WW.

Please note that unfortunately due to technical issues on our end, the restoration/recovery process for archived accounts has been disabled for an indefinite period of time. This means that we will be unable to restore archived accounts, nor will the automated system be able to complete restorations. We do not have an estimate as to when this process will be up and running again but it will be a significant amount of time before this feature will be restored.

Webkinz Players,
Posted on FB:
We have heard your concerns about the changes to how Hunger and Energy work in our new system. It is our goal to make feeding your pet a key part of its daily care, but agree that it is not as easy to keep your pet full as intended. We are working on improving this balance and will continue to focus on this area of the game until it feels fun and natural. Thank you for your input as we develop the future of Webkinz.

The two gramma accts weren’t too bad maneuvering dailies. BLG got all the prizes up to and including the snowman fridge when I logged on. After that it was downhill. Attempting dailies, meanwhile pet in avatar was being a demanding brat. Switched out pet and next one was bratty too! I logged off. 🙉🙈🙊

What would happen if Ganz had a new car and did an oil change but forgot to put the cap back on. An oil slick and a seized engine, but it still looks pretty.
I have only been on my Asian accounts so far. One account has 93 pets and I reached the snowman fridge prize. It took me one hour to reach the next level, by answering requests and doing my regular stuff I was able to fill three pets hearts. I actually enjoyed reaching the next level and having the little prize ball open to show me my prize.
My second account only has 8 pets but is deluxe. I reached the mosaic bench prize level. I also tried the spa option and the only benifit I found was that it filled the sleep meter very fast. This account has over 900 items and they all seemed to be in my dock, which I agree needs more work.
Checking out what is new, the clothes are ok, there are three new prizes for the beach theme(rug, clock and lamp). The WOW doesn’t have anything exciting for me. I haven’t check the spree game yet, but will share when I do.

Boper – I don’t like it! Everyone seems to far away and smaller. I understand they are trying to make it seem like you are actually standing at the Curio Shop window or looking into an Arcade game, but I don’t think that’s very functional. Thank you for telling me it’s like that for someone else though.

It also will not allow me to adjust the window size to allow two Windows to be open simultaneously. That is really going to affect the way I play. I often either have two accounts open at the same time or have Gumbo’s and Webkinz both open. It’s going to require two PCs to trade between my various accounts now. That is going to slow down my ability to move everything to my Main A LOT!

107 zingyginger said,
July 8, 2015 @ 5:01 pm
For firefox, to resize your screen:
Put about:config in your address bar
It’ll warn you about voiding your warranty for firefox, say yes
At search up top put in resize
Then scroll down until you see an entry that says “dom.disable_window_move_resize” which is set to false
Double click and it should be set to true
Close and re open all firefox windows, then no website can resize your windows against your will

yay, stagemom. glad it worked. steve webkinz was very helpful with that, i truly appreciate him as they’re not required nor do they get paid to interact with us on facebook.
also, if you want your screen to look clearer, try using the scroll button on your mouse to slowly zoom in or zoom out in steps. some of the magnifications looks crystal clear but you have to find it the right magnification

128 tmt5 said,
July 8, 2015 @ 7:49 pm
I have only been in four rooms but this one chair moved location and it is at least twice maybe three times the size it was before. Another room is missing a table(the boxes are there in its place) and several items are only half there. The old cat and dog furniture did not fair well. I told the girls not to move anything in their rooms for a little while especially if anything looks off. I don’t remember my staring score but after filling two hearts I am at 3832.
129 tmt5 said,
July 8, 2015 @ 8:02 pm
I like the new Ichiban Theme items.
It is worse now then earlier no today’s activities, newspaper or map and a bunch of the arcade games not working. I played one of them earlier. After I fill this heart I am going to give chrome a try.
130 Boper911 said,
July 8, 2015 @ 8:08 pm
You get “bonus” family care points after you fill 10 hearts.
131 stagemom (WWID: stagemom, ozshares) said,
July 8, 2015 @ 8:25 pm
This is really going to take some getting used to. I think I’m going to end up ignoring my Bratty Webkinz’ requests on all my accounts except my Main until I get better at navigating WX. I don’t have many pets on any of my extra accounts so it’s going to take awhile to get a high enough Family Score to earn more FS stuff on those accounts anyway.
I haven’t gone exploring my Main’s house, I think it’s better I don’t see all the things that aren’t working right.
I am really really hating having to use the scroll constantly.
132 tmt5 said,
July 8, 2015 @ 8:33 pm
I am at 4 hearts. I got the 4000 points wall paper. Chrome is working better for me. Haven’t been on the smaller accounts yet. Glad I did the marshmallows and ganznews floaties last night after midnight. When you switch pets it is important to go to the pets room and get them out of bed then put them in the bed before you leave to do anything else. You periodically get one heart point while they are sleeping. The farm fresh food doesn’t give you a bonus every time seems to vary I have gotten it from twice to four times. The green pop up tent is not functioning as a bed. I had to move the pet to a different room to sleep.
133 tmt5 said,
July 8, 2015 @ 8:35 pm
Is anyone else having the pets whose hearts they filled sad in the pet list?
134 Boper911 said,
July 8, 2015 @ 8:41 pm
I hit 4000 after doing my 10th pet, ending the night around 4200. Half my pets look sad and half look happy. There are 8 pet slots instead of 6 now. I would have preferred 10 or 12 per page, though.

154 Momz, I agree completely, it is going to be near impossible for me to fill 10 pet hearts each day. Ganz needs to realize we do have things that need to get done in real life!
It’s going to seem like a job going on WW everyday to a bunch of sad pets with empty hearts that need filling. Didn’t they say each pet heart goes DOWN by 25% each night? I’m going to feel like Lucy working at the candy factory on I Love Lucy trying to juggle all these pets needs. LOL
Went back to see EXACTLY what WN said about the Pet Care Hearts:
Feeding, bathing, grooming, exercising, and playing with your pets all around Webkinz World will help you to fill up their hearts.
While playing with your pets, their Pet Care Hearts will ONLY go up. But each day after midnight, all Pet Care hearts will go down by 25%.
The important thing to know about the Pet Care Heart is that unlike their Happiness, Hunger and Energy meters, a full or empty Pet Care Heart does NOT affect your pet in ANY way. So even if you have too many pets to keep ALL of their Pet Care Hearts filled all of the time, they’ll be just fine.
So then, why fill the Pet Care heart at all? Because filling up Pet Care hearts will earn you more KinzCash and Family Score!

They might revert back to the “old” Webkinz or have to close.
