Security Tips from Sheriff Steel!

Hey pandas! Today Sheriff Steel, the security panda of Pandanda, post and entry at Henry's blog about our Password Security. Read at what he said, they are really good Security tips.

Hello Pandanda Citizens,

Sheriff Steele here, with some advice on creating a strong and secure password for your Pandanda account. Did you know that the best protection for your account is a strong password that NOBODY knows? (Well, you can, and should, tell your parents, but that's it!) Telling your password to anyone - even your best friend - gives that person permission to go on your account. And while they are on your account, they can do pretty much

whatever they want. Just remember, YOU are responsible for your account, no matter who goes on it!

Here is today's tip:
Make a password that is VERY hard to guess.

• Your password should be completely different from any other password you have used.
• A strong password is one that cannot be found in the dictionary.
• A strong password contains at least six characters - more is better. However, the limit is 18.
• Your password should contain a mix of numbers and capital and lower case letters.
• Your password should be something someone who knows you can't guess.
• Never use any part of your real name, Pandanda name, or email address in your password.

Today would be a great day to check the strength of your password. If it doesn't pass the test, go ahead and create a new one! Just go to http://play.pandanda.com/, scroll to the bottom and click on Change My Password.

I'll have another security tip for you this week. Thanks for reading!

Keep it safe, Pandas!
Sheriff Steele

Well, thanks Sheriff Steel for those awesome tips! ;)

Free Elite Member Day Fun!

Hey Pandas! 

Guess what? Today is Free Elite Member Day! And today Henry came for a surprise visit to Pandanda! Here's what he has to say:

Hey Furry Friends!

I hope you are having fun during Free Elite Member Day today! I stopped in for a few minutes this morning to say Hello and bounce around in a Snizzle Fizzle bubble. Snizzle Fizzle potions make me giggle!

I snapped a couple of pictures of the Snizzle Fizzle Fun. And in case you are wondering what FEMD is, it means Free Elite Member Day! Much easier and quicker to type, don't you think?

Bouncing around in Bear Hollow

FEMD = Free Elite Member Day

Have fun today!

Henry

Hope you all enjoy FEMD!

Hey guys! It's me, osita! Finally, today is the Harvest Festival, August 23rd! Today is also the 2nd annual Harvest Festival. Trade caramel apples to scarecrow from Harvest Grove. You can find caramel apples all around Pandanda land except tree houses that appear almost 30-20 seconds. So here are scarecrow's prizes! (Credit to Sherman's Pandanda Cheats for the pictures!)

This is how scarecrow looks like in Harvest grove, he's next to Farmer Ned.

Here are Scarecrow's prizes.

Here's how Pandanda decorations look like around Pandanda Land...

Bear Hollow

West Market Street

East Market Street

The Orchard

And Darby Field. Now look on the top right corner you'll see a big caramel apple that counts how many apples you got.

Then if you click on the big caramel apple this is what it'll say, it will introduce you to the Harvest Festival.

Also if you go to the Clothing Co. located at East Market Street, you can get this chef hat and chef apron for 45 panda gold:

Oh, and this is how the caramel apples look like when they appear around Pandanda land:

I probably won't be able to see Henry when he is on his first visit to Pandanda because it is quite early for me lol. And I don't want to stay up all night. Well I could, but this panda needs tons of sleep :D I hope there will be some sandmans around Pandanda :D Why? Well, if there are snowmans during the winter, why not sandmans during the summer? Hehe! I hope to see tons of pandas on Beach Day! And remember to check your sandwiches! Don't eat sandwiches that are made of sand because that would taste pretty weird and sandy :)

And here is a post from Henry! Another Blazin' Hot Red Day review and picures:

I just got finished uploading the pictures I took during Blazin' Hot Red Day to Facebook, and let me say,  I'm glad I've got an air conditioner! Just looking at those pictures reminded me how fiery hot you all made Pandanda Land on Thursday. It is so awesome when I log in on special days like that to see so many of you participating! You rock!

Here are a couple more pictures from Thursday. You can see all of them on Facebook in the Blazin' Hot Red Day Photo Album. Remember, you don't have to be a member of Facebook to follow that link and view the album!

The blue freeze ghosts didn't stand a chance!

Voting Time Again!

Hey Pandas! 

There were a total of 1,209 pandas who voted in the "What Is Your Favorite Thing To Do In Pandanda" poll. Let's find out which was voted the most favorite panda activity to do in Pandanda! So here is a quick post from Henry:

Whooo! Quests are definitely my most favorite thing to do in Panadnda. It's a great way to earn some coins and level up at the same time! What are your most favorite thing to do in Pandanda? Also, be sure to vote for this week's new poll! You can find the new poll on Henry's Blog.

If I could trade places with one of the Pandanda Residents, I would trade places with Questy Greybeard because he has all these amazing cool items! And plus, he looks like Dumbledore so it would be pretty cool to be a wizard for a day hehe. Which Pandanda Resident would you rade places with and why?

~firefly

August Arrives!

Hey Pandas! Here is a blog post from Henry:

Brrrrrrrrrrr!

Well, my panda pals, we are entering the last month of summer. The sun is high in the sky and it is very hot in Pandanda land. I bet a lot of you are hanging out down at Coconut Beach, soaking up the sun, then taking a dip in the water to cool off. The Big Scoop is another fun place to meet your friends for a chilly cone of tasty ice cream and a game of Line 4. And don't forget about chasing ghosts at Misty Hill! If you get hot there, just let a blue ghost catch you. There's nothing like being trapped in a block of ice to cool things off!

I've got some fun events lined up for everyone this month. Next Thursday the 11th will be Blazin' Hot Red Color Day. Drench your panda in Red Panda Paint, then wear red clothes and red accessories to show the summer sun that you are red-hot!

Then on Wednesday the 17th it will be Beach Party Day! We will head over to Coconut Beach to surf, swim, picnic, and even just lay in the sun being lazy. I will be making scheduled visits during Beach Party Day. I'll post the times as we get closer to the party.

One of my favorite Festivals begins on Tuesday the 23rd - Harvest Festival! Those caramel apples look so tasty that I'd almost rather eat them than collect them to exchange for prizes. But just almost! The prizes are sure to be awesome!

There will be some more fun events added to the calendar, and I'll let you know all about them soon! But now, I'll leave you with a picture that Mod Skippers sent me from Free Elite Member Day last Saturday. Looks like a Snizzle Fizzle party! Bouncing pandas everywhere!

Wow! There will be tons of stuff going on during the month of August! On the 11th, we have Blazin' Hot Red Color Day, so be sure to wear TONS of RED! On the 17th, there will be a Beach Party Day, which Henry will schedule some visits during that day! And on the 23rd, the Harvest Festival will be starting! Where we will be able to earn some cool prizes! There will be more fun events added to the calendar soon! So be sure to watch for the calendar for any new events!
