Pets
The optimization and talking to the guy who did it has brought up some major longevity problems with Aywas. We cannot go on as we are: with so many pets and items. We cannot.
The first problem is pets. There are too many pets owned by users. Before I changed the capture success rate to 10%, you were getting them at 50%. There are over ten THOUSAND pets on the site in two weeks.
The second problem is items. There are too many, again. The games hand them out like crack. The inventory table is also essentially what's causing the site to lag even though we've optimized.
These two things combined will kill Aywas. It will. I need some solutions.
Obviously there's the idea that we can wipe everything and start fresh for beta testing and move out of alpha, with the 10% capture rate and reducing how many items the games give out. It will hurt but it would be the best option.
Alternately, we can provide a mass deletion option so you can delete your items/pets that you don't need. like, keep your super rares but ditch everything uncom and com for the good of the site. This might work. We don't know. But it's something worth trying.
Obviously I'm hoping for other possibilities. But the future is dark for aywas if we go as we are. This is only a temporary solution, the optimizing we did, and it will eventually crack and break.
So, does anyone have alternatives?

I like that Mass deletion for items/unwanted pets, but what of our BP/GP/Items purchased/as well as the Customs if we do a Wipe? I really wouldn't want to lose the items I've bought, or the pets I've worked hard for.

mass deletion sounds good.
I agree, the site is going downhill.
Let everyone have a choice of 5 pets to keep, 20 items to keep.

I vote for the mass deletion option - I am sure that we ALL have items we can live without. A lot of items. I would love to be able (just for this one time) be able to mass delete at the dump and still be able to get points. ~~ I know, it's a long shot but I had to ask! :)

There should be a limit on how many aywas we can have-- like, 50 in the end, total.
@.@;; Please don't delete all the aywas though, I'd be so depressed. I'm very.. taken to seven of my characters. U can haz the rest of dem. ;o;

1.Get users to want to delete unwanted items and pets.How about money given for each item/pet the delete?
2.Banango's idea.
