The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Site Update

Actually I don't have any ugly to talk about. But we do have some good and some bad.

First, the bad:
- Creating new CDs has been disabled. After a lot of discussion, it seems that the income being yielded by CDs is causing a lot of detriment to the economy. You can still collect CDs that are maturing on the date that they mature as usual. It's a sad choice, but one we've had to make. We've been aware that the CDs are causing economy damage for a while, and while it will hurt to lose that income, the economy will be better as a result without GP and BP inflation.

Now, the good:
- You can now see when your breedings were assigned to a helper (breeding artist) by viewing them in the standing stones.
- You can now set your pet's breeding rules on the edit pet page, which will list them as searching for breeding mates
- You can now search for pets that are searching for breeding mates in the Search function (meaning, they have breeding rules). I think eventually we will expand this, but for now here's a simplified version of finding mates and viewing their rules.
- You can cancel your customs in your custom waiting queue if you see anything wrong with it/no longer want it, and resubmit as necessary.
- This isn't anything you can see, but two updates to the breeding panel make reviewing and handling predict submissions much less strenuous for the predicts team.

Coming up in the next hour or so:
- Being able to send people BP and GP anonymously from the Bank page. This is being worked on right now

That's all I got for you ~

i'm surprised to see how many people are chucking a bit of a tantrum about the CDs XD I've used them but never much, but I do know that people were making a LOT of BP/GP from them, and I can see how that's bad, especially the GP.

As for the rest of the updates, they're GREATTT~!!!! I especiallly love knowing that I have two breedings already assigned ;P

It always seems to be "all or nothing" here, and I'm starting to dislike it. I always have a love-hate relationship with this site, and for every tiny thing I start liking, the staff puts something out that I dislike orz...

nice "good" updates though not really relevant to my interests.

I...don't get why the CDs are gone. I really, really don't. Of course, I've never understood the outrageous interest rates on some of the plans in the first place, but taking them away completely? I am confused. And very, very sad.

I have no interest in really making any custom pets. If I wanted to custom pets really, I'd have gone to Wajas. Where I don't need to shell out hours of time spent for a custom. There I could buy the token I wanted of what breed. Choose from the designs available and use custom colors to color them. But I'm probably just lazy about that. I'm really only using this site for artists for NON aywas commissions for other games. I really didn't use the CD stuff that much. Maybe once or twice a month, if that really. However, I'd like to see updates that cater to the lot as a whole rather than majority artists. But this is just my opinion which I'm entitled to at least.

Ugh, now I'll actually have to put in a mild effort to make money. ;P
(Seriously, though, the inflation and in general the way the site works already makes it way harder to make any money as a newbie. I think that's probably a bigger problem than the massive inflation.)
