Hi, I spawned my ocelot egg and tamed them and now when i go back they are despawned ?!!??!?! Someone please help me. Thanks Bashdash100
Despawning is normal mc physics so this can happen at times. To avoid this you can use a nametag to rename the animal.
At about 9:00 PM PST last night, phys did a snipe event which release about 20 (my estimate) of each: Chicken, Pig, Sheep, Cow, Mooshroom and Ocelot Spawn Eggs quickly followed by a crazy lotto. I also have one ocelot egg in addition to two pig and one sheep egg. This was a likely "promo" for the release of mobs in the main world in addition to their possible implementation into voting prizes in the future (comfirmed by phys that it will likely happen.) Also, I recall GoddessLaverna selling an ocelot egg for $15-20k to Bashdash about 15-20 mins after the lotto.
Well i was only fishing about 10 blocks away from the ocelots so i dont get why they would despawn?! @LRP85 @Physicistsmom
You could have been in a different chunk than them, and that chunk was reloaded, without you in it, therefore despawning them.
You should of used a name tag on it if you wanted to keep it. I don't see why you should get it back. There was no bug or glitch that caused this to happen, you messed up. No reason to reward you for it.
You know that the server will not refund errors on your part, as LRP said, you should have used a nametag.
This is part of mc itself, not the server. If you play single player and don't name tag an animal, they can despawn. It is common knowledge to mc players.
Phys posted in the announcement thread that mobs will despawn without having name tags. So again, not the servers fault that you messed up.
