Majestic Mountain!🔗
10/11/24, 10:28 pm
The long awaited Majestic Mountain update is here!For an explanation and reminder, last year's Design-A-Goatling contest was based on updating all of the Explora Areas with RADs and new Goatlings, however as the original files from Majestic Mountain were sadly lost due to a PC crash, the Goatlings were redrawn in order to create RADs which caused a delay to the update.
Without further ado, sneak peeks will be posted shortly, the Area will be updated, and a proper News post will be posted. Stats (HPs and Str) of Goatlings who are receiving RADs will be reset.

Palestine Fundraiser FAQ🔗
03/11/24, 2:18 am
+ What happened to the stream/off-site donation ideas?We were unable to find a easy way to do so without being charged fees or taxes. We also received overwhelmingly negative feedback on the idea. So we decided to keep the fundraiser on site as this will be the most cohesive and desired location to do so.
+ Will you donate 100% of the donations?
Yes, we will be covering taxes and PayPal fees out of pocket, which will be around 25% of the total raised. Successful donation screen shots will be provided at the end of the fundraiser to show the full donation was given.
+ Will Goatlings.com lose funding because of this extra fundraiser?
Yes, holding charity fundraisers unfortunately has the side effect of drastically lowering our monthly budget, as most of the support for the site goes to the charity in question for that month. However we are happy to support this important cause even if it means that we may not be able to do larger programming updates for a while.
+ Why didn't you do anything sooner?
We did, but we simply did not disclose that we had. As soon as we educated ourselves on the situation, all of the Goatlings.com staff who were able to made private donations. We are only able to do about two charity fundraisers a year as it impacts our site funding and resources. After many member requests, and countless hours behind the scenes discussing what our options were that were within our means to do, are we now able to hold this fundraiser.
+ What about TAM?
In order to keep from having fundraisers run one right after another, TAM will be postponed until January 2025.
