Genus in a Bottle

Site Update

Good evening everyone, I am just here with a real quick update!





The Genus in a Bottle item has been moved from the USD Shop to the SP Shop! Sorry for such short notice!

Would it be impertinent of me to ask why it was moved and the HGK was left in the USD Shop? I'm just curious as to the reasoning, since it appears to be pretty similar to the HGK, but with a wider range of possibilities? (also, you might want to edit the KB article to link to the SP Shop instead!)

I'm really curious as to why it was moved as well. It really should be a premium item addon that would support the site's USD issue. :[

It was probably moved because it had a chance for rare babies and the HGK does not

SeaCrest (#55939) We want to give further options and SP is still rather difficult to come by, I am monitoring the sales and if too many are sold we may increase the price.
🐉~LegacyWolf🐺 (#306) Making it a premium item really wouldn't increase the site's revenue, as many users are already premium. Versus putting it in the SP shop which gives another wanted item in SP which we have been asked for for a long while.

Makes sense. Hope it works out well!

You misunderstood what I meant, I'm saying premium as USD (not premium as the subscription) for site breedings that are being paid to artists. As it being a USD shop item, those being on your USD paid teams would have the item backed by the money spent of the userbase. Anyways, not my decision. But it would be nice to see more items that had new functions for breedings, customs, and such.

Crap. Of COURSE I just recently spent all but 1 SP on a Scroll of Transportation. Guess I'll have to go back to Questing next month, provided it's still in the SP shop come June, :-P.

Having things to bring in USD is useful but at the same time, having things for SP may influence more people to try their hand at submitting pets/items/clothing etc. for events, which I think there's been trouble with.

Plus if everything big is for USD, it drives away people who aren't able to pay USD, which makes the site emptier, which drives away USD paying players too, etc. etc.
It's a balance you have to make sometimes.
