Henry Blog Post: Pandanda Servers

Recently, Pandanda Private servers such as iPandanda have been released. Although it may seem like a cool idea, they and others have not been given permission, and it may be unsafe. Today, the Pandanda Team made a post on the Pandanda Blog explaining the future of Pandanda, while also clearing up questions about private servers.

Hi everyone,

We have recently had several inquiries about private servers running Pandanda. Please be aware, Sunleaf Studios has not licensed Pandanda to anyone or given permission to any other site to run a Pandanda server. 

Any site other than www.pandanda.com that is hosting Pandanda is running an illegal pirated copy of Pandanda. These sites are in violation of copyright and trademark law and are neither authorized or endorsed by Sunleaf Studios.

Why we don't license Pandanda to other sites:

1) Our most import goal in running Pandanda is the safety of our players. Live moderators, database security, chat filters, and customer support are just a few of the requirements to ensure the safety and protection of players, particularly in a virtual world designed for younger players. Without our complete control over a site, we are unable protect the players. The site may have inadequate firewalls to prevent someone from stealing your password or the files could contain computer viruses or malicious code to harm your computer. We will not risk the safety of Pandanda players.

2) Although the Pandanda virtual world is currently suspended, we are still working on using the Pandanda brand for other projects in the future. This requires us to maintain control of the Pandanda trademark and all content and ensure the quality of all Pandanda products meet our approval.

If you come across another website running a copy of Pandanda on their own servers, please let us know by emailing us at support@pandanda.com. These sites are operating illegally and Sunleaf Studios will aggressively defend its copyright and pursue criminal charges as necessary.

-The Pandanda Team

Thanks Pandanda for the information! If you all do find a copy of Pandanda, please report it so Sunleaf Studios may deal with it directly.

Pandanda Not Closing After All?

Recently, players all over the world were shocked when they found out their beloved game, Pandanda, was to be closing on October 28th, 2012. But good news maybe! Thanks to my friend pixieone09, Pandanda may be opening again after all! She told me the messages by Pandanda have changed!

Still confused? Let me explain. When Pandanda closed, this was the message on the website. It said Pandanda had closed for financial reasons and can't sustain ongoing development.

Well NOW, it says that it is currently SUSPENDED (not closed). Not only that, but they have to currently put ongoing development on HOLD. They even said any projects will be posted here! Notice the differences between the pictures?

This is SUCH good news maybe! Maybe Pandanda might be opening once again in the future! But let's not get our hopes too high though. What do you guys think? Are you excited?

Party On,

Today makes the 3rd year passed since Pandanda's Launch on October 24th, 2009. Today, celebrate Pandanda's last anniversary by wearing your previous Anniversary clothes and Pandanda colors! Check out my Pandanda themed outfit!

Pandanda has been a great journey, and I am proud to have blogged for the game and participated with everyone in it. Today, in honor of Pandanda's launch, I shall be wearing my launch shirts.

During Pandanda's Launch, many new things were introduced to the game. New clothing, Dragons, Pet Shop, new furniture, new potions, new rooms, and PLENTY more!

 Here are just a few pictures of Pandanda's launch as a sort of flash back for previous/new players.

For even more pictures and memories, take a stroll through Pandanda Gang's October 2009 Archive! So many good times! What was your favorite part about Pandanda's Launch?

Pandanda CLOSING?

THE PANDANDA GANG PARTY IS STILL ON. SCROLL DOWN TO THE POST BELOW FOR ALL THE DETAILS!!

COME CHAT WITH US AT WWW.XAT.COM/PANDANDACHEATS AND SHARE YOUR FAVORITE MEMORIES!

Hey Pandas. I am here to bring you all very bad news. It seems Pandanda has run into financial troubles and will be shutting Pandanda down for good. It will be closing on October 28th, the day of our party. Sheriff Steele and Henry will be logging on to say their goodbyes and collect their memories with others for one final party. Henry has made a post on his blog, and there is also a message in the log in screen.

This is incredibly sad and I hope Pandanda will return soon. It has been a great 3-4 years playing with pandanda and attending parties, events, participating, and blogging for the pandanda community. If I were to give any advice, I'd say that if Pandanda needs quick money fast, to open up a Kickstarter where others could donate money and help Pandanda reach the goal it needs to sustain the game. Thank you Pandanda, it's been an incredible journey.

Party On,

Check out the prizes! These are so cool! My favorite is the Vampire Shirt!

Not only that, but the Ghost Potion has returned for it's third year in a row! Become a Misty Hill ghost, and scare your panda friends to death! Purchase it from Paige at the Bear Hollow for 15 coins.

Also, in the Bear Hollow, there is a secret passage to the Parlour! Click on the giant mirror, and you will be transported straight into the haunted house!

Pandanda Moderator Moonie Visit

Yesterday, I was lucky enough to run into Moonie during her shift. Moonie is just one of the very old pandanda moderators. We played around, hunted bunnies, caught ghosts. and she even gave out gold! Here's some pictures of her visit.

We headed to the Bunny Hill first, where we played about five rounds. Then after, we headed on over to Misty Hill.

Not only this, but Moonie also gave Pandanda Gang's Pandanda Cheats a shout out and said hey!

Now, MANY pandas won themselves some 25 Panda Gold, but here are just a few that got their fair share of valuable panda gold! Check it out!

Yesterday was very fun hanging out with Moonie. I hope to see more old mods coming on soon such as: SusieQ,PandaGuide,Olliee,Harp,Jule,Beannie, and more! Did you see Moonie? Who is your favorite mod? Comment and let me know!

Henry Blog Post: Pumpkin Festival Begins Wednesday!

The Pumpkin Festival is almost here, and I am SO excited! Henry has made a little post on his blog explaining what is to come with this year's Pumpkin Festival in Pandanda Check it out!

Hey there, Panda Pals!

I must say, Halloween is certainly in the air in Pandanda! The Moderators have been telling me about all of the costumes they are seeing on pandas, and I've even seen some for myself. There are lots of cool Halloween costumes and clothes at Clothing Co. for Elite members and non-members, too.

Pandanda's Annual Pumpkin Festival will begin on Wednesday. During the Pumpkin Festival, there will be Halloween candy scattered all over Pandanda (except in treehouses).  When you pick up the candy, it will be put in your trick-or-treat pumpkin basket, which will show how many pieces of candy you have. You will be able to trade your candy for spooktacular prizes from the Cauldron of Prizes at West Market Street.

There are all kinds of spooky and special things that happen during the Pumpkin Festival. I don't want to spoil it for you if this is your first Pumpkin Festival, so I'm not going to reveal any more details. You'll just have to wait until Wednesday to see for yourself!

I haven't forgotten about the Orange Color Day pictures! I've already made an album that you can visit, and I'll post some of the pictures here in my Blog tomorrow.

Party on, Pandas!
Henry

Awesome! Hopefully maybe Pandanda might have some new decorations or what not. What do you guys think?

Party On,
