    DO YOU THINK (uc related query)

    I've always been a bit suss about buying WN/VWN UCs simply because they're more likely to be noticed by everyone wanking over names when one comes out of hiding. I'm not name-fussy at all when it comes to UCs. Would it thus be safer to purchase badly-named UCs? If so, is there anyone even selling badly-named ones in the first place?

    My apologies if this is a question that's come up before, I just can't sit on it any longer is all!

    I'm selling a DN uc faerie yurble. But I'll be honest; it depends on the colour of the pet. Dn uc fairies, Grey's and Dari's? A little bit easier. Royals and plushies? It's gonna be a bit more complicated, regardless of the name.

    EDIT: the only reason I would be mildly wary of buying uc's is purge time (which I was told is soon?) when people look up names, and some Ucs might be stumbled upon.

    It's definitely safer to buy a lower-end, bn uc and trade it up to your real goal but it's longer and asks for a lot of work. Of course people will be far less suspicious of ghjssk212_ the UC Darigan Kougra then Gillej the UC Darigan Kougra.

    Those names are fake by the way.

    And yeah most people sell BN UCs, they're way cheaper, often half the price off WN ones.

    I'm not sure it really matters much to be honest.
    Either way, you have the same chances for somebody to question your BN pet as your WN pet. It's just a matter of how quickly do you want to be able to get the end pet that youre after. Do you wanna spend a little bit and get a low end, bn pet.. then trade foreverrrrrrr to uptrade a little bit. Or do you want to spend a bit more and get a higher end wn pet so you dont have as tough of a time.. or even buy the pet you ultimately want to have and not even worry about having to trade at all!
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left

    Thanks for the input guys. I'm probably not seeking to buy until the purge hype dies. Ultimately I'd like to own an UC Plush of some description so this information has been helpful~

    ugh yes converted trading is sucky enough. I'd much rather risk losing an end-product uc than slave away for over a year trying to trade up.
