First Free Elite Member Day of 2012 this Saturday!

It's Free Elite Member Day this Saturday! Every non-member who logs on that day will have full access to member clothes, furniture and even a dragon! Better start collecting because you'll need money to buy all that stuff. I'm still short.

---

While you are collecting Friendship bracelets for the Friendship Festival, don't forget to also collect fruits, veggies, coconuts, mushrooms, gemstones, and recyclables. Then you can sell them to the vendors around Pandanda for coins. Why do you want coins? So you can shop til you drop during Free Elite Member Day this Saturday!

You can earn coins by fishing, then selling your fish to Fishy Joe. You can also earn coins for every game you play. So you've got plenty of chances to increase your Pandanda bank account before Saturday!

Everyone who logs in on Saturday will have full access to all of Pandanda's Elite Membership features for one day!** You can use your Pandanda coins to buy anything at the Clothing Co. on East Market Street! Decorate your tree house with furniture from the House & Tree catalog, and unlock your tree house to have friends over! You can adopt a pet dragon from the Pet Shop! And you can even buy a Horse Companion from Questy, if you have reached a high enough Quest Level!

This event is for one day only, starting on Saturday at 12:01am PST and ending Saturday at 11:59pm PST so don't miss out!

**Non-Elite pandas will get to keep all the Elite items purchased Saturday but will not be able to use them after Saturday without an Elite Membership, except on future Free Elite Member Days. Questy’s Horse Companions are Elite items. Dragon eggs will remain in your tree house, and will hatch later in the week.

More Fun this Week!

More fun this week yay. Tomorrow is Mardi Gras Color day! Be sure to dress in purple, green, yellow and gold. On Friday the level 50 and up questers will have a chance to party with Henry on Palm server. Apparently I'm not level 50.. yet I won't be. Neither will Pandy, she's been very busy lately. Also this Saturday will be a Free Elite Membership Day! Non-members will have a chance to buy elite clothing and furniture and even a dragon! Read about it in the post below ;)

Hey friends!

I hope you are enjoying the Friendship Festival. You still have a whole week to collect Friendship Bracelets to trade to Lucy for the cool Friendship Festival prizes, so keep on collecting! Make sure to vote in the new poll to let me know your favorite Friendship Festival prize.

We had a great Game Day on Saturday. I really got a kick out of playing Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill with so many of you during my visits. Check out these pictures of the fun!

Are you ready for more fun this week? First is Mardi Gras Color Day tomorrow. Dress in Mardi Gras colors of purple, green, yellow, and gold, and lead your friends in a Mardi Gras parade around Pandanda. Our Brazilian panda friends might know this day better as Carnaval. Whatever you call it, make Tuesday bright and exciting! Mod Jule is already dressed for Mardi Gras fun!

On Friday, the Super Questers who are at Level 50 and above will get their chance to party with me on Palm Server. The first party will be at 10am Pandanda Time and the second party will be at6pm Pandanda Time. You can click on each of those links to see what time the parties will be where you live. Pandas who live in Australia, New Zealand, and other countries around that part of the world will probably want to come to the 6pm party, since it will be on Saturday morning and early afternoon.

And finally, this Saturday it is time for another fabulous Free Elite Member Day, the first one of 2012! Everyone who logs in on Saturday will have full access to all of Pandanda's Elite Membership features for one day!** You can use your Pandanda coins to buy anything at the Clothing Co. on East Market Street! Decorate your tree house with furniture from the House & Tree catalog, and unlock your tree house to have friends over! You can adopt a pet dragon from the Pet Shop! And you can even buy a Horse Companion from Questy, if you have reached a high enough Quest Level!

Level 75 Party Pics!

Hey everyone I took a few pictures while I was at the Level 75 Party. I thought I would show you guys what happened at the party xD

It's Game Day

I hope you have your bunny nets and ghost-catching backpacks ready, because you are going to need them today! During Game Day you can earn double coins for Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill, and for Pen the Pig and Line4, too!

If you find a Moderator hosting a special game of Bunny Chase or Ghosts of Misty Hill today, you have a chance to win 250 Panda Gold! You can look for Moderators (and me!) to be hosting as many games as we can fit in between the hours of 5am-8am Pandanda Time,  9am-12pm Pandanda Time, 2-3pm Pandanda Time, and  4-8pm Pandanda Time. Games can be on any server, and we will be jumping from server to server to give lots of pandas the chance to win! Remember, you can win ONE time from each Moderator.

I'll be in Pandanda from 5-7am Pandanda Time,  then once more from 7-8pm Pandanda Time. You can click on each link to see what time it will be where you live.

I will see you soon! Until then, check out this picture from the second Level 75 Party yesterday! We had a great time!

Hey everyone! Level 75 Party is Today!

Level 75 Parties Friday!

Wow! On September 8, 2011, RainbowRacer, Lime12101, and Blowsight10 were the first Pandas to reach Level 75 in Quests. Now, 6 months later, there are 122 Pandas who have reached Level 75, the highest Level!

I am going to celebrate that great accomplishment with two Level 75 parties on Friday! The first party will be at 10am Pandanda Time and the second party will be at 6pm Pandanda Time. You can click on each of those links to see what time the parties will be where you live. Pandas who live in Australia, New Zealand, and other countries around that part of the world will probably want to come to the 6pm party, since it will be on Saturday morning and early afternoon.

The parties will be on Palm server, which has already been Level Restricted to players at Level 75. I can't wait to chat and play games with all of you Super Questers. It's going to be Questerrific!

And don't forget, Saturday is another exciting Game Day, with double coins on all multiplayer games, and chances to win lots of Panda Gold from Moderators on Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill. Lots of fun in Pandanda this weekend!

Hey everyone Sere here, level 75 party is today. All of those pandas who are level 75 there is a party that Henry will be there on Palm at 10am Pandanda time or 6pm Pandanda time. Of course I will be there xD I hope I can take some pictures when I'm there. I wish it was on a Saturday.

Friendship Festival :)

It's the Friendship Festival!
Pandanda is decorated all Friendship themed, check it out:

It's so cute, so now going to the bracelets part. They look like this.

So you walk over to it and just click it, it's simple.

As you see Lucy is at Fishing Hole now, she's giving the prizes for friendship bracelets. They're not as expensive as last year, but personally I liked last year's better.

In total it costs three hundred friendship bracelets, I'm going to save up.. maybe. My favorite is the springy heart hat, what about you? Take our poll :D

Well there's one more other thing, since it's a special occasion... MORE QUESTS! Go to Jim, he has a quest.

It's pretty simple actually, all you have to do is collect five roses from Darby Field and purchase a box of chocolates from Mr. Elmhurst, then finish the quest by going to Paige.

Have fun! I'm collecting bracelets right now :)

The Frienship Festival starts on Friday!

Henry made a new post today:


I am so excited about the start of Friendship Festival on Friday that I can't get a song out of my head. Maybe you know it: 
 
Make new friends, but keep the old.  
One is silver, and the other, gold.

Friendship Festival will be a time to celebrate with the friends you already have, and to make new friends. There will be delightful decorations, extra Quests, and, of course lots of colorful Friendship Bracelets scattered all over Pandanda for you to collect. When you have enough Friendship Bracelets, you can visit Lucy at the Fishing Hole to trade them for special Friendship Fest prizes.

And don't forget, the Pandanda Forecasters predict we will have another heavy snow just in time for Friendship Festival. So don't pack away your warm clothes just yet!

Henry Posts! New Account Management Features!

New Account Management Features!

Hi, Panda Pals!

I am excited to tell you about some new Account Management features we have added to the Pandanda website. You can follow that link to get there, or go to the Membership page, then click on Manage Account in the menu. You do not have to be an Elite member to use Account Management. This is for everyone!

Once on the Account Management page, you can login with your Panda name and password to access the features. You can check your membership status if you are an Elite member. If you have a recurring monthly Elite membership it will tell you the date your membership will next renew on. You will also see a link to cancel your recurring membership.

If you have a non-renewing Elite membership (for example, a 6 or 12 month Elite, or an Elite bought with a Gift Certificate) it will tell you the date your membership will expire. Since it is not necessary to cancel a non-renewing Elite membership, you will not see a cancellation link.

Also on the Account Management page, you can see the email address that you used when you created your account, the date that you created your account, and the chat mode your account is in, either Safe or Filtered.

You can now change your chat mode yourself! Simply click the link where it says "To change your Chat Mode preference". An email will be sent to the address your account is registered to. That email has a link that you must click to complete the Chat Mode change. If you changed your mind, and don't really want to change your Chat Mode, you can just delete that email, and your Chat Mode will remain the way it was.

If you change your mind after you have already clicked the link in the email, don't worry! You can log back into your Account Management page and change your Chat Mode again!

If you need to contact Customer Support with any questions or comments about your account or about Pandanda, you can click the link where it says "To contact Customer Support".

Sheriff Steele has a bit of important advice he wants to share with you. Take it away, Sheriff!

Sheriff Steele here! Pandanda Citizens, it is very important that you keep your Pandanda password completely private. Remember, when you tell someone your password, you are letting them go on your account and do pretty much anything they want. Is it worth taking the chance of having them sell all of your things, or even getting you banned? Your account is YOUR responsibility. Keep it safe! Sheriff Steele, signing off!

Thank you, Sheriff, for those words of advice! Pandas, I will have some more information about using the new Account Management features this week. And don't forget, the fantastic Friendship Festival will begin on Friday. I can't wait!

Henry

Hey everyone! Henry posted about the new features of the Account Management where anyone who signed up for a panda, doesn't matter if you are elite or non elite you can still check your account. You can check the date you signed up, the email you used, when the membership expires if you have an elite and etc. So what do you guys think about these new features? Comment here and let us know.

Henry Posts! More Snow in Pandanda!

More Snow is Forecast for Pandanda!

Hey there, friends!

Well, the groundhog saw his shadow on Groundhog Day, which means six more weeks of winter. The Pandanda weather forecasters had thought things were warming up in Pandanda, but they now agree with the groundhog's prediction. The new weather forecast is for heavy snow to hit Pandanda again late next week, just in time for the Friendship Festival!

Maggie is so excited for more snow that she is now selling Sled Companions, along with her Horse and Pony Companions. Head over to Farmer Ned's Barn to check them out! The sleds come in 3 color combinations, and will be just the thing for getting around Pandanda after the snowfall.

And here's some great news for those of you who love to shop - you can now buy MORE Vault space! You can buy up to 500 more spaces, for a total of 1000 spaces. The Vault is a great place to store your summer clothes, holiday decorations, or anything else. Putting things in your Vault lets you free up space in your closet and treehouse storage for new clothing or furniture.

I've got some more cool stuff to share with you all, but I will save that for my next post. Talk to you soon!

Henry

Hey everyone! More Snow sounds exciting and I'm so glad that we can now buy more vault space because I love to buy stuff on Pandanda and I always run out of closet space. What do you guys think about the extra vault space and snow? Comment and Let us know!

Henry Posts! Fantastic February!

Fantastic February!

Wow, have you checked out the Pandanda February Calendar? We've got lots of things planned to help make the shortest month of the year one of the most fun months of the year!

Right off the bat, there was an awesome update in the Clothing Catalog. Lots of cool Valentine's-themed clothes and accessories; a hockey uniform, hockey stick, and skates; new player card backgrounds, and more! And you can still buy football stuff for the Big Game on Sunday. Go Team!

Zing will be leaving this Sunday, so make sure you have collected 10 Golden Tickets and traded them to him for his 4th and final prize. Once he leaves, his prizes are gone forever!

We will celebrate the power of friendship during the Friendship Festival, which begins on February 10th. You'll have 18 days to collect friendship bracelets to trade for cool Friendship Fest prizes. And on Valentine's Day, the 14th, we will have a Red and Pink Color Day.

I've got some special parties planned for Super Questers this month! On the 17th, all pandas who have reached Level 75 will be able to party with me on Palm Server. Then on the 24th, everyone at Level 50 and above will get their chance to party! There will be two party times on each of those days, so pandas all over the world should have a chance to participate.

Game Day returns on the 18th, with double coins on multiplayer games, and lots of chances to win Panda Gold from me and the Moderators in Ghosts of Misty Hill and Bunny Chase.

Dress up in purple, green, yellow, and gold for Mardi Gras Color Day on the 21st, then end that week with a super Free Elite Member Day!

February is going to be fine!
Henry

Henry Posts! Snow is Melting!

The Snows are Melting!

Hey friends!

Well, the Snowmen have marched out of Pandanda and back to their snowy hideaway. And it looks like they've taken a lot of the snow with them!

The snow is starting to melt away, revealing the ground and streets beneath. The Fishing Hole has thawed, and the ice skating rink at Harvest Grove is closed for the season. But it's still pretty chilly around Pandanda, especially with pandas carrying around Zing's new prize. Hope you've got some gloves or mittens - brrrr!!

Can you believe January is almost over? The month went by so fast! February will be here soon, and it's going to be fantastic! It may be the shortest month of the year, but it is going to be PACKED with fun - the Friendship Festival, Game Day, Free Elite Member Day, Valentine's and Mardi Gras Color Days, plus more! More? Yep, more! Keep reading my blog for updates!

Party on, Pandas!
Henry

Hi everyone! Sorry we haven't been posting for like a week because we're kind of busy. We will still try to post more. Anyways, February is here and the snow is starting to melt on Pandanda and of course there are some exciting events coming up such as Friendship Festival-1 of my favorites, Game Day-a great opportunity to earn coins and panda gold, Free Elite Member Day-to all of the nonmembers who would finally get a chance to try out some of the benefits of being an elite, Valentine's Day, Mardi Gras, and Level Parties!
