Site Update
Pride Month's first scheduled update is here! How lucky are you that two event shops are opening on the same day? The Event Shop is hosting the Pride Month activities!
First, hit up Adventure for Bonsai Rainbow Trees which are the event currency for this portion of the Event (this means that they can be used to buy the Event Items until the second Pride Month update). They are Uncommon items that can be found in all parts of Adventure.
The Event Shop is full of all kinds of awesome items! You'll be able to find energy items, HA items, fauna, and informational collectible items stocking for Bonsai Rainbow Trees.
The HA items available will make your HA avatar trans-friendly by offering bases with flat chests for both avatars, and bases with breasts for both avatars. There are also a bunch of tank tops designed for the new skins, both regular and Pride-themed!
This update's special item is a brand new Pride Month site background! Pick up an LGBT Clouds Background to change your layout theme to LGBT Clouds, a background design made by Syncline.
Of course, there are a handful of adorable Pride-related pets for you to collect in the Event Shop as well! Go check them all out and see if any of them resonate for you.
Can't wait for more Pride items? Look forward to the next Pride Month event update on the 14th!
Note: The Bonsai Rainbow Tree will be leaving Adventure areas on 11:59 PM on the 13th. All Event Shop Pride Month items will be cleared at 11:59 PM on the 13th. Get these items before they rotate out for the second round of Pride event content!

J.A.K. (#15) The Genderfluid Shen has been overwritten by the Gender Fluid Shen's artwork. Meaning, I had a Genderfluid Shen from the West River, and now have an Event Pet with a r60 rating instead.

Am I the only one even moderately upset by the fact that there are like a total of two pan-based items/pets in the event shop?
I mean, it's great that ace and bi is getting more exposure but, at the same time, I feel kind of erased here. :/

SketchyRingtail (#59981) not upset but I know what you mean. I think it has to do with how many were submitted for each type. There may just not have been as many people making Pan items / pets. So we'll just have to wait until next week to see if any thing else is added. I'm still on the fence with the pan poly one though... I mean I do identify as pan... but have never and will never be ok with a poly relationship (seen too many friends be cheated on by partners saying that they are "poly" and they need to be ok with them being with more than one person).

There's no reason to be rude about bisexuality. :/ Most identities only have 1, 2, or even no items this round. If you want more pan stuff you should make some to submit. - Azi

Everyone who wants to know what is the best area to adventure:
I tried a few areas (10 mins at a time, which is the shortest time to find out if something drops enough or not.. 30 mins is better) and so far Grasslands is the area that gives me the best results. Averaging at about 4/5 Bonsais per 5 mins now, so that's close to an average of 1 tree per minute. Good luck all! I don't have a lot of time at all this event, sadly, but I am gonna try and get all the pets today, anyway!

Taena (#66637) - If we could maybe not spread negative stereotypes during the tolerance-and-education event, that would be greatly appreciated. It is definitely a problem within the poly/"poly" community that people use the term as an excuse to do whatever they want with no regard for their partner(s)'s feelings, but that should not invalidate how many happy, healthy poly relationships there are that you don't end up hearing about because they're happy and healthy.
To be fundamentally opposed to the idea based on some negative experiences is very, VERY similar to people claiming bi/pan people "ALWAYS cheat" based on the stereotype that being attracted to more than one gender means constantly wanting one of each applicable gender. If you look at the pet's description in the Aywapedia, that's actually part of the point of the Pan-Poly Cerby: that being potentially attracted to anyone does not automatically equate to wanting everyone.
Not to mention it would be incredibly easy to make the inverse argument that I've seen so many monogamous friends get cheated on because society seems to deem that more acceptable than just confessing and discussing an attraction to anyone other than one's current partner, but you wouldn't blame monogamy as a whole for that, would you?
.... :"| I typed up a big list of safety/red flag tips for helping to discern the difference between poly and "definitely totally poly ugh why are you smothering me" people but it got way too long for a news post comment, weh.

I've had good luck with three areas: Wasteland, Seaside, and Grasslands. They have very few item drops, so the odds of getting bonsais seems to be better.

I'm finding a tree every few minutes in Seaside.
On another note, why is the image of the purple genderfluid shen (found at west river) the same as the newly released one?
