y'all are complaining so hard about webkinz x omg
i think the reason theyre continuing with it being released tomorrow is because thats the date the promised users so like either way users are gonna get bad news, its either "almost finished" or "sorry, later date"
so obviously they were gonna get complaints either way
my dad works in and with businesses like this (not ganz tho) and ive helped out a few times + he likes to tell me about his days a work sometimes and lemme tell ya, the reactions you get when clients are told they have to wait, they flip out the reaction for being told "its not quiiite ready yet but its p good" is still pretty bad, but it isnt as bad
its kinda like handing in a school paper, the teacher wants it now, even if its not completed humans hate late things
which is why i think they decided to release i now, rather than later
You are so right Kinz. Can I call you Kinz? I can not wait I am not complaining I am not leaving webkinz because of this. Yes I am a little bit worry but I know I will get use to it by the end of the summer of even sooner

I have tried to think positive about this overhaul of Webkinz but yes I agree, they were not ready They have been working on it for over 2 years I bet by the end of summer or by the first day of fall that every item will show and everything will be running as good as it can get. I am thinking positive about all of this.

I feel the need to point out, though, that Ganz didn't say July 8th until a few days ago max. It's the fans that have been guessing and spreading "July 8th." Ganz easily could have made it July 29th, the next scheduled maintenance after this one, but they're going with July 8th, and upon seeing these lists, it feels like it's only because that's the date that everyone EXCEPT Ganz has been spreading for weeks now.
That's not to say that your points aren't valid or true, I'm just saying that Ganz didn't give the date of July 8th until very very recently, which is now seeming like its too early.

As far as I'm concerned this is too early for it to be released when they still have so much to complete. They didn't promise this date, they simply said this summer, until just recently.
I wouldn't be turning in a half done project at work and I would expect that they shouldn't either, especially with it affecting so many users. I don't think there are many people who would've been disappointed to have had this delayed. Look how long we've been waiting for other things, such as doors that can be moved or removed. They wouldn't care too much that we were put off by it being delayed. Its very strange that they're going ahead with this, when you consider all the issues that they're going in with.

i think it also has to do with the anticipation for it too like i think i recently saw a comment on here that said something like "i just cant wait to actually play the new webkinz x instead of just seeing pictures of it"
like theres only so much hype you can build before the event just becomes another day

They wouldn't care too much that we were put off by it being delayed. Its very strange that they're going ahead with this, when you consider all the issues that they're going in with. That's because people knew there was a maintenance on July 8th, and it seemed to fit for the release date for Webkinz X. I know that it was my first guess, with the 29th as my second guess. Towards the end of June they posted that the next sneak peek would be on July 1st, and on the July 1st peek (I believe it was this one) they said the final sneak peek would be on July 7th "Stay tuned to my column on Tuesday, July 7th and I’ll reveal ONE LAST DETAIL about the exciting secret project, Webkinz X!" which gave players even MORE reason to believe it was coming July 8th, and they finally said "So, fellow detectives, are YOU excited about the launch of Webkinz X TOMORROW? Let me know in the comments below!" when they showed the new home page we will get today.
Like Newfie said, until super recently, Ganz had only been saying "coming this summer." Also, like Newfie, I find it odd that they're going ahead with the release with so many issues yet to be resolved. (HELLO? MISSING items??!?) Incomplete items is one thing, but missing items is another. And it's not even the fact that these ARE issues at release, it's the fact that these list are SO LONG at release that really concerns me.

Yes, it really worries me too. How are they to know that things won't disappear or that they'll come back as they should? Based on past history, I don't think Ganz is influenced by consumer wants to this extent. I don't think that's the reason that they're releasing when they are. They put things off before, I'm just unsure as to why this wasn't put off until more known issues were worked out. If they've been working on this for 2 years, whats a couple weeks or a month to work out more bugs? I'm a little (lotta) bit scared, at this point. I guess we just pray for the best. I just don't want to see a lot of loyal members give up on the game over frustration at how things don't work. Throughout the years I have seen people leave, simply because they got tired of certain things, and I hope to see WW around for at least another 10 years. So, let's keep hoping that the issues get worked out quickly!!

Ok, so I logged in an actually played around for a while. IT is going to take a while for me to get used to all these changes. I'm one of those people who really want to respond when my pet requests something - but it isn't always practical or easy. My pet wanted to new clothes, but it took me several minutes to find out how to dress them. Then I was confused about how to find clothes - it's still a long scroll through - just in a different order since things are grouped by type now. Then I was really confused about which bubble to put an item in. Yes, I was laughing at myself for how pitiful I felt! The one nice thing is that I can change my pets clothes anyplace now - I don't need to be in the room to do it.
Overall it seems about the same, but I'm all for simple, not all these colorful click choices.
Once word of warning - don't try to open a prize box. The screen freezes up. I also couldn't log out - I had to close out the entire screen.
I played with a couple different pets and filled up their hearts, then I wasn't able to fill up a third pets heart. We must only be able to do a certain amount? So, I got bored again, lol.
BTW: The marshmallow challenge is on the map - not the room anymore. But most of you probably knew that cause you all are a smart bunch here at WT. I'm the crazy one who skims and doesn't really read all the info - I can be quite dangerous that way!! Hee Hee.
Have fun everyone!

So many glitches! Apparently, I now own a purple floral fox (instead of a purple floral fawn). I also feel as though I am missing half of my stuff. In addition, my deluxe membership expired and I have NO IDEA where my clothes from the deluxe categories are!!!!

Some times with sites like this, the only way to figure out the bugs is to launch and work from there. My son is a big gamer and lots of these games do the same thing. Just be patient guys, they will work out the kinks, but they have to know what they are first.

Just be patient guys, they will work out the kinks, but they have to know what they are first. This is exactly what I was thinking. I do not believe Ganz launched Webkinz in 2005 without glitches. There had to be some, if not a lot. And this is something nearly as big. It could take the launching of Webkinz X to realize ALL of the problems and address them accordingly. We shouldn't be so freaked out, with an update there is always a glitch. It will all get better soon.
