Egg ninja
An egg ninja is someone who turns others eggs for profit.
If you have EVER asked someone to turn their eggs, you are an Egg Ninja.
These jobs are often "assigned" to certain users.
You must be someone's friend to turn their eggs.
Bump/bumper/bump a post
Bumping is when you comment "bump" on a post, to bring it on top of a feed.
there is often a prize for bumping, and often you will have to # your bumps.
A bumper is someone who bumps a post.
a "true" project
True or generated projects mean that the original project creator has generate 16 pets or more,
all of same colour and species, to form a project with multiple mutations.
There is some controversy on how many mutations are to be added in order to become a
"true" project. The majority of users will say 3 or 4.
a breeding project
Many users do not consider "breeding" projects projects at all.
A popular term for a breeding project is:
---breeding 2 pets with similar mutations or colours together, then selling the offspring.
Here's a warning: breeding projects NEVER sell well, especially when they are over-priced.
mutes, 3v/4v/5v/12v... what?
Confused what mutes or 2v means? You're not alone.
A mute is another way of saying mutation.
3v indicates how many mutations a pet has, or what version the project is.
3v = 3 mutes | 4v = four. | 5v = 5, etc.
2v means "second version" which indicates that an extra splice has been added.
ac
NO. this does NOT mean Air-conditioning XD
AC is a short form for Adoption Centre. XD lol
admin/owner

Some people use pures, or projects, but credits will always be considered first.

BO = buy-out. (Not body-odor) XD
SBO = Super Buy Out.
There is often an extra reward for BO
Eg. an extra pure egg, or 10 generated pets, etc. It can be almost anything.

An OC is usually called a "fursona" (for animals) or "persona".
It has been used by one user only.. often they are called "Mascots".
Eg. Estarla (catus version) is my fursona/OC.

Abbreviation for "post to follow". Since if you comment on a post, you receive notifications..
Many users now just "ptf".
