Testing to make sure this email goes to stagecoachisland@wellsfargo.com and not anyone else. Keep it real!!! =)

What kind of hats did you have in mind Matt? Beanies, baseball caps? Let me know what you think and I'll try my best to see what I can do for you!

Hi Da Numba One Stunna, don't worry, your comment came straight to us. With your help, we will keep Stagecoach Island as real as possible. =)

i think that we need more malls and more clothes, shoes, and hairstyles

Hey Pixie. In my mind, more shoes and clothes are always a plus. Thanks for the suggestions. We are working on it! :)

We need more clothes and hairstyles. Somthing like baggy clothes and braids. That's just my opinion

Some jobs, or something that could teach us how to "use our money" would be fun. I doubt anyone is really taking anything in from the questions every week, there needs to be more things we can buy(houses, pets, make up, jewelry, accesories skateboards, boats, food) and more ways to earn money (completing challenges like hitting the traget or finishing the bike track)

Perhpas jobs like fast food at mall or pet walking.

We also need to have jewelry.

Hi Kenny C., we're working on getting you guys new clothes and accessories. Thanks for your feedback though, it will really help us in finding the right accessories for everyone. =)

Hmm.. some cool jobs could be like working at the cafe or mall or ways you could open up your own clothes store and make clothes or sell ones you have for lower prices (also being able to return your clothes if you didnt like them would be a good idea) and in response to the skimpy clothing , it would be nice to have some normal looking shirts and maybey some long sleeve shirts, dresses, and bathing suits would be cool to so we dont have to swim in our clothes :)

I think that when people want to drive cars and stuff that there could be more than one person able to sit in or on them. that way friends who are trying to go somewhere can all share a car or a bike or jetski!

On the ATM it would be great for deposits and withdraws to have $100 and $1000 because if we have lots of money to withdraw or depostit it would take a long time because it only goes up to $30

Cassie, wave ur magic wand and make the ships soilid so we can all stand on them and get seasick and go nowhere pwease :)

Ok...another idea..sry for the many posts, New hair, we need new hair. It is a necesity , we must have cool hair because ya it will make us all feel warm and fuzzy inside. Plus uh new hair is what we have in the real world and um, it will give us something to buy (cause we dont have many things to buy)and teach us more about financing. also; ANYONE WHO IS READING THIS AND WANTS NEW HAIR POST A COMMENT ABOUT IT AND WE JUST MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET NEW HAIR! :)

Hey Kai! I will try to wave my magic wand make all your wishes come true! We are working on putting new stuff and more features about financial education so I'm really happy you brought that up. This is why I say Kai is awesome! ;)

I would like to cancel my membership, it does not interest me. Thank you.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm finding the client / software is extremely unstable as of late especially in the last few updates. Anyone experiencing similar issues?

semi-embarassed to ask this question - but I simply cannot find stagecoach island in SL. when I map>search>"stagecoach island" nothing comes up (nothing comes up for 'stage' or 'coach' either). what are the coordinates?
also, do I have to be a paying resident in order to venture into stagecoach island?
thank you *Sequioa (a newbie ;)

Hey Sequoia, the reason why you can't find us is because we are no longer in SL. We have our own world called "Stagecoach Island" - and you don't need to pay anything to visit us. =)
You can download the game with the red "join now" button to the right on this page and come in and check us out! Find me or telegram me if you have questions. Catch ya later!

wow thank you, Cassie. just curious - why did you decide to create your own world outside of SL? (if this is explained in a blog somewhere, just point me in that direction ;) *Sequoia

Hi Sequoia - Here's an article for your reference.

Hey there shauna88 - those are some AWESOME suggestions, we will most definitely check 'em out! =)
Catch ya in world!

Kai, you're not out of style, we'll find some way to fix that so you can go to the winter ball coming up...Lol

okay so we have bingo nights. is there anything to do during the day? Do I need to wait till wednesday to have fun in the game? oh yea and umm, is there a prize for winning at bingo?

Recently me and a fellow Stagecoach Islander were trying to play chess, and it wouldn't work so could you guys fix that? and another thing since the pocketmoney is no longer available, it makes buying parachutes impossible. Just a few things to think about. oh yea, theres gotta be something to do during that day. like some sorta of game or something...

Hi there Akashablud!
There are actually a lot of things you can do on the island during the day. There's parachute racing, motorbike racing, snowboarding, checkers - and now you can even get a virtual job.
Let me know if you need any more information, I'll catch ya in world!
..working on fixing the chess. =)

Is it possible to work at a certain place like actually be there working instead of just accepting a paycheck every 1st and 15th of the month without doing anything? I just started a job so I was just wondering.I thought it would be more cool if it had that minigame.Can you add more clothing shops and jewelry. I like it so far its a pretty cool world.

Hi Skylina! Lots of islanders actually work their jobs, like serving burgers or designing homes. You can check out the blog and see if any of them are hiring. :)

Also - if you visit the GCK boutique, it features new limited edition clothing every month, so check that out for some new styles!

As for the minigame - stay tuned...we've got some pretty exciting stuff coming up. :) Let me know if you have any other questions - always happy to help! =p

We love the game. MrDefender and I are having a blast.

However, we both think it would be so nice if you could actually sit on your furniture when you are in your home or at someone else's house! We were both sad when we realized we didn't have that option.

And what about a face update? One that makes the face actually match the body... no matter what skin color you choose! Right now we are both tan but only MrDefender seems to match all over while my face seems a whole lot darker than my neck and body. Possible suggestions to correct this might be to also offer shade choices for face make-up. And while you are at it; nose size choices and even lip size choices might really be nice to have as well... so we may be allowed to look more natural!

And finally, MrDefender specifically and repeatedly mentioned while we were building our first SI home together... that he thought three (3) things might be really nice to have:
1. The ability to "feather in some things" when "something" is close to working instead of having it imperfect. (Umm... even as I type this I find it hard to explain but perhaps you will know what he means.)
2. The ability to place items better in house - i.e.; options to place items on floor, on wall, on (right, left, middle) OR against the targeted furniture, and the ability to move all items in smaller increments so it doesn't jump too high up or too low down.
And finally;
3. Changing the Car and Bike Rental Facilities to be more of a business where you have the ability to buy and sell your own automobile and motorcycle (and maybe add a bicycle, skateboard and rollerblade shop) - so we are not JUST renting them. We can opt to buy outright or finance them... driving them home and parking them, and also having the ability for both of us to drive/ride in the same vehicle so we can travel around the Island together when we go places. Many of us on the Island are couples.

Just some suggestions from The Defenders. :)

Hi Mr. and Mrs. Defender!

I'll try to answer as much as I can, and if I'm stumped, I'll get the techies to help out. :)

We actually can't make items sittable yet, but it's something that I've asked for on behalf of the community. So I'll keep you posted once I'm able to get a better idea of why it's not available!

As for the skin tone, yikes! Sometimes the shadows from being in or out of the island sun can change how the pigment appears in world - but I will definitely send in your FB on make up and avatar customization! No promises, but we'll see what we can do. :)

To answer MrDefender's build questions:

1. I'm not entirely sure what he means by feathering...is he referring to the functionality of objects, or the graphics?

2. You can move objects in smaller increments by pressing the 'shift' key down when moving them. This will also allow you to place items against the wall and on the ground.

3. I'll let them know the FB in for the Bike and car rental. It would be nice to have more than one person in the car... :)

Thank you so much for your feedback, and hey - I'm having a technicality and can't add the two of you, but feel free to add me to your list and shoot me teles if you've got any more questions, I'm here to help! :)

i would say bein able to buy worlds would be a plus for stage coach, p10 to p20 is quite enough does not have to be as big as aw worlds. what u think?

About me:

On quiet afternoons on the island, I find new islanders and show them around. Almost every Friday night some friends that I've had for years meet up with me, and we can chat for hours without getting bored. I enjoy "Simming" homes, so drop me a gram if you'd like any help on a build!


Best Island Memory:

I can remember my first journey around the island like it was yesterday. It was on June 21, 2007, I met so many friendly islanders that day who showed me all of the important locations. Very few of them still come online, but I've also made many new friends through the years of being a Stagecoach citizen.
