Now don't get me wrong here, I'm all for finding a mate to rp with, But there are a few problems I notice...
1. First off, When people want to find a mate, they advertise for one, or just walk right up and go 'hey we can be mates wanna?' When they could actually have their chari meet someone one the game, and get to know em', instead of straight out asking a strange wolf/lion/creature.
2. Some people think that finding a mate means getting into a serious relationship, rather then just as a rp wise. I mean come on people, your not going to find your future husband of FH!

Yeaaaah, one thing you have to get used to on this game is the matebeggers. To be honest, I never understood it. This isn't eHarmony after all...and I just find it darn weird to be honest. :X
Yes, some people want a mate for their character, but it's quite awkward when a stranger just comes up and asks. When my old characters had a mate on IT, they were usually a friend I knew for a while and we just paired up our characters for comical nonsense. XD For a while, had my charrie Foxtrot in a love triangle kind of rp that was hilarious. But hitting on strangers...even if meant to just hit on the "character" you're playing as...can be kinda creepy to me. That's not some sort of rp I think should be an introduction to someone lol.

Yes, some people take FH seriously. I myself, have only mate-begged one time. And that was the first day on FH ever! Now, I know that it's way better to rp with the person. When I'm in-game, I never go without seeing a mate-begger post or movie. It gets annoying when people blow up the chat looking for a mate. Like I said, I only begged once, and I know now how those people must have felt. I was a tard to do something like that, but I wasn't the only one that did that at that moment. But anyway, I think people should rp with others and not mate-beg, and they need to understand that FH is just a game, and the character that you're talking to could be a rapist or a cereal killer or something in real life.

I honestly believe that a lot of people mate beg just because so many other people do it. Newbies to the game probably see a bunch of these other people going "I need a mate", and react by either going "What?" or "Golly gee, I probably need one of those, too!" It's just a theory, but the latter probably believes that FH is less of a virtual chat and more like WolfQuest, but with felines as well. Then there are those who just want a friend, and seeing as mate beggars often get results, they use that as a way of meeting people. Long story short, I don't think most people who mate beg are actually looking for a romantic, quality relationship for their character.

Very true, all of you. And you do have a good point, Paradox. I never thought of it that way as a bandwagon sorta thing.
-
Haha I'm glad I never did that in FH to regret it. But I've gotta say, it's getting a bit obnoxious(Actually it has been ever since FH was out). I've never really seen people taking it seriously, as if they'd really date someone. But only as characters.... People really do that? xD
Alsooo, when they just come up to you and ask if you want them as your mate. I have that issue on my male characters and it's very weird. Lol.

Yea mate beggers get annoying at times, there needs to be a map for just MATE Hunting XD there anyone looking for mates can go in and know that everyone else there is looking for mates. That way they leave the rest of us alone in peace, and only disturb the others who do the same XD
-
well i think you should look out there are people out there who kidnap others well ill cut it short LOOK OUT!

I find mate begging completely annoying especially when someone hooks you up without knowing whats going on.
I shall tell yee a short tale. I was in an rp with about 7 members not including me, 6 had mates except meh. I didnt care i just kept rping.
Alpha: Shadow im sick of you not having a mate, could you please get one?
Shadow (me): Um i dont see the problem without one
Alpha: I'll advertise for you, ill find you a mate dont worry
Shadow: No you really dont have to do that, please just dont
Alpha starts advertising and spamming the chat with it and movies.
I log off
That kinda ticked me off, i hate when no one listens to me >:(
I believe having mates are fine, though a character made of pixals shouldnt be used for serious relationships. You dunno who that person is on the other computer screen, its not an online dating site.
Of course mates can do quite......uhhhhh not so nice looking things. I dont mean snuggling together i mean buttswinging and headbanging in certain places. Its not just trolls but two dirty minded mates that do stuff in public. Quite revoulting really.
Ive had a stranger ask me to be his/hers mate (I couldnt tell which) not knowing the person i said no. The lion didnt stop though, it tried lying under me, going on top of me, buttswinging over ect. When it was convinced i didnt want him/her it left to try my friend.
I prefere getting a mate by rp, not force. We had a matebegger join our rp and she couldnt even rp very well. She just wanted this guy.
An rp by her
gets rabbit from a hole and brings it back
Thats all she did in the rp.
-
I dont get some people... They just ask for mates insted of actully meeting the person... really strange....
-
I saw one person mate begging and some guy came up to her and was all " does that mean you want to have mate with me?" And the beggar was all like, " O_o Yes I wanna be your mate?" And then they did the whole "I love you forever" back and forward awhile before the guy was all, " Can we have sex?" and then he mysteriously vanished. Not missing a beat the beggar was all " LOOKING FOR A MAAAATE". No love, XD, didn't miss him at all, XDXDXD

I saw two mate beggars one day when I was playing as tia, my lioness with wings.
Ramon wolf 1: ccccaaaaannn iiiii bbbbeeeee yyyyyoooouuuurrrr mmmmmaaatttteee????
Tia (me): no!
Ramon wolf 1: umm......
Tia: O_O -logs out-
-logs back in-
Tia: phew, that was close...l
Ramon wolf 2: can I be your mate?!
Tia: no.......
-logs out-
Matebeggers are so annoying........gotta make sure that my dragon-Disney character, mushu dons't get asked for a mate.
-
Yeah, once this random lioness walked up to me and my friend. The conversation got weird
Me: Hello
Lioness: Hi
Friend: Hi there
Me: Are you here to join the pride?
Lioness:What Pride?
I explain about the pride
Lioness: Oh, uhhh sure. Now that im in your pride, ethier of you wanna be mates with me?
We both said no, and she got all mad. Though her name was 'girl lion' she kept asking 'you don't know a thing about cheethas, do you?' it was really odd.
