Pixie Hollow is a place where players can interact and chat with other Fairies and Sparrow Men. Using the toolbar at the bottom of their gameplay area, Pixies can perform interactive play by sitting or flying and can communicate with their fellow players through preset phrases, dictionary approved text, or emotes.
Players have the option to rest their wings by sitting down anywhere they like in the Hollow. To sit down, just click on the Sit button located on the far left of the chat toolbar. To stop sitting, click anywhere else on the screen or click the Sit button again and up you’ll fly. You can also use the arrow keys on your keyboard to switch directions while sitting.
Chat Levels
There are two different chat levels in Pixie Hollow, SpeedChat and SpeedChat Plus. The chat level can be changed by using the Account Manager and is subject to Parental Control.
All players can talk to each other using the SpeedChat option. SpeedChat provides Pixies with a menu of pre-approved phrases for them to say. A few clicks of the mouse is all that is required for players to communicate with SpeedChat. There are many different SpeedChat phrases available to Fairies and Sparrow Men (see Pixie Hollow SpeedChat Phrases) and the option to unlock even more through the Pixie Hollow Clickables Collection.
To use SpeedChat, click on the SpeedChat button on the toolbar:
This will open up the SpeedChat drop down Menu. From here, browse the categories and select what you wish to say.
SpeedChat Plus
With SpeedChat Plus, in addition to being able to use all the normal SpeedChat phrases, players can also type their own phrases with their keyboard. SpeedChat Plus only allows players to use approved words in the game's SpeedChat dictionary. Words not in the dictionary will flash red to let the player know that it is an unapproved word. SpeedChat Plus is filtered, moderated, and under parental control. Parents can choose whether or not they want to allow their child to use SpeedChat Plus using the Account Manager.
To use the keyboard feature of SpeedChat Plus, click the blue chat bar and enter your message. Any words that are not "Pixie Hollow-friendly" will flash red. Type your message and then either press "Enter" on your keyboard or click on the yellow arrow to send.
In Pixie Hollow, you can choose to chat with the whole Meadow or to "whisper" to just one Fairy or Sparrow Man using Whisper mode. When chatting to the meadow, your words will appear in a bubble over your head. In whisper mode, messages will appear on the bottom left of the screen.
Chatting to the Meadow
Normally, all players in the Meadow will be able to see what you have to say. Your messages will appear over your head and stay there for a set amount of time. Even if you are flying around the meadow, your message will appear above you as you travel around.
In whisper mode, your Fairy or Sparrow Man can chat directly with another player without having everybody in the meadow see what you are saying. To whisper to another Pixie, click on the whisper button on their profile. You can access a player's profile by clicking on them, or if they are your friend, from your friends list. If you do not wish to send or receive whispers, you have the option to turn them on and off in your Leaf Journal under the Options tab.
Clicking the whisper button will allow you to enter whisper mode. In whisper mode, a green tab appears above the blue chat bar and shows you who you are whispering to. Messages sent to the player you are whispering with appear to the left of the Pixie Hollow chat toolbar.
Currently players can choose from the following emotes: Happy, Excited, Angry, Shocked, Confused, Grossed Out, Teasing, Embarrassed, Laughing, Scared, Sad, Winking, Innocent, Cake, Flowers, Sun, Rain, Sleepy, Rock, Paper, Scissors, Good Luck, Heart, Party, Rainbow, Teacup, Cupcake, Popcorn, Singing and Clapping.
