Picking Up The Pieces (movement)

The Picking Up The Pieces movement was a brief bout of activity that occurred after staff 'fixed' a bug that would not allowed players to see certain lions in their King or pride member's lineages. These lions, once blank or listed as 'unknown', were suddenly available to be seen again and many lions and kings thought to be clean ended up being Dirty Blooded. After staff refused to take action despite the time and money spent trying to keep kings and lions clean, PUTP was made in response to their inaction.

The Issue
The Heritage glitch was said to be fixed before by Staff. Later, without warning or announcement, it was altered further and reports of lions who were clean suddenly containing The Big 4 began to slowly trickle in. The grew to a fairly sizeable outcry from the clean breeder community; the unaffected standard breeders of Lioden were mostly mocking and antagonistic of the situation.

The suggest fix was manually wiping the lineages of all those who requested it. This would cost staff nothing and return lions to their previous clean states, however Staff denied the Clean community this remedy.

The Movement
PUTP was founded by Louse, and broadcasted by Jaxter in a thread calling unaffected Clean Breeders to action. Those who answered the call offered free or discounted cubs or studdings to less fortunate clean breeders in an effort to mitigate some of the damage. This movement lasted about a month, gaining over 100 participants, including some Standard Breeders.

Users would declare membership by putting PUTP or 🅟🅐🅦 in their usernames. HeritageGate2k18 is one nickname for the incident which took place on 9/20.
