New User Bar Spotted: Eggcellent

[Ambient]

You'll find the yellow-swirled purple egg on (you need an account to see links) in the next five minutes, @(you need an account to see links).

@(you need an account to see links) I could kiss you! But that would probably be weird! Thank you!!!

Not tooo sure what I'm looking for :o

Rumor has it that there are Easter Eggs that appear next to a user's name in the SPAM threads...If you find them all and click on them, you will get a spiffy new user bar.
But, search as I might, I have only seen 2 and I was too slow to get one of them. I think they are a myth.

Oh Em Gee! I've been all over the place and haven't seen any. Am I blind guys???

i genuinely struggle with visual processing yadda yadda yadda and so, i can give you the tips i used to find my eggs!!


* temporarily disable all signatures, avatars, and images in site settings

* if this isn't enough, use uBlock Origin or Stylus (or a combination, whatever works for you) to temporarily hide or block userbars and colorful text, including usernames if needed

* open up a bunch of recent threads in intros, chat, and spam (maybe other places but i just used chat and spam) in new tabs

* every five minutes, refresh them all and scroll through each

* get enough threads set up that it takes you roughly five minutes to get through them all

* have fun scrolling for an hour or so, because the forums aren't really usable while you have all this stuff disabled, so getting it one and done is a good idea imo!

* once you have your pretty new eggy bar, make sure you re-enable everything, of course <3


that's what i had to do, because i legitimately could not see the eggs without hiding colors and movement unfortunately. they're really pretty!

i hope this method doesn't bother anyone -- some users do have various disabilities that might make this hard, and this is an easy way to make it doable without changing the event itself, so everyone can enjoy it! ...eggjoy it? heh. i hope this helps you or anyone reading who's struggling with it!

Those might be the Ryugotchi permission group/userbar eggs! The Ryu eggs are spotted and they dance. The Egg Hunt eggs are brighter and a little bit bigger (and iirc they don't always appear upright). If there's a Ryu and Egg Hunt egg, the Ryu will be to the left.

I see eggs next to some names but are those just Ryus?

This is what the Ryu egg looks like:
(you need an account to see links)
And it dances left and right.

Here's what the Egg Hunt UB eggs look like (taken from (you need an account to see links) post):


But they're much smaller when they're next to the username.

Here's what it looks like next to a username, and one with the Ryu egg as well (taken from (you need an account to see links) post):


The eggs can be found all over the forum, except the Under Your Skin thread in the Spam subforum iirc *and the trading subforum (just remembered this).
