@stellalunagirl I agree with you. Regarding your post @orderedchaos I don't think it's anyone's intention to defame or hurt @ian. Rather, we all feel hurt and frustrated that we're being ignored and that the site is as P2W as it is, and we're just venting our thoughts and feelings. I hope censorship...

@Viltuvitrast it sure seems like it, but I desperately hope it isn't so.
I think that we have CLEARLY marked out that this would bring in money for eggcave in the long run, and if he won't do this I think it mayyyyyy be for other reasons than greed.
It bothers me how he always responds to blog p...

@prairie The fact that @ian hasn't responded yet (even though there are more than 100 posts and the thread's been around for more than a month) gives me the impression that he doesn't want to listen to the vast majority of his customers. If something's in the works, he could say "something's in the...

Is it just me, or is this site not very active?

prairie • 9 February 2022 at 1:05 PM

@riceboysleeps
The best we can do is keep this topic active or at very least at the first 5 of the site suggestions. That'll keep this topic in discussion and seen by not only Ian but other players. Mods can see it too, though I think they can't do much other that bring it more to Ian's att...

@prairie I like this idea, especially because there would be a monthly cap to keep things in balance. I didn't get a chance to read all the responses before mine, but I also agree with the fact that this would also help give EC more of a use, and in turn, hopefully create more interaction on the sit...

So I haven't been on this site and a few others for a very long time, due to schoolwork, tests, and fixing my failing grades. Now, that I don't have such burdens anymore, I've decided to come back to the sites and check on what's going on. If someone could give a brief explanation about creatures an...

@renfri @jack68 @northpaw @catsruawe @raindrops Pinging my friends list too. Anyone have any thoughts about the ideas in this post? I'm really hoping that they will listen. Let us earn CC through gameplay. Just a little bit each month. It would really help.

@prairie mentioned that @ian talked abo...

@quinoafuntime Very well written 😊

My opinion of EggCave is so bittersweet. I've been here for a few months now and really like a lot of things, but I also feel very frustrated a lot of the time. I don't recommend the site to my friends even though a part of me wants to. The way the site tries t...

quinoafuntime • 7 February 2022 at 5:16 PM

@cryptic_cryptic I agree, there's so much that's unavailable to most players.

I'd like to paste a forum post that I made a little while ago. Here is the link.

"I've been on the site for almost two months and I'm having fun. But here's my main c...

prairie • 6 February 2022 at 4:55 PM

@greengrassoftunnel
I'm happy you think I wrote out this suggestion well!
I agree that if people are given a limit of 500cc max to buy each month, they'd be more likely to buy CC vs if the max was lower than 500cc. This is mostly because players get that good good dopamine from purchasing the CC...

justagiannamoment • 5 February 2022 at 12:33 PM

So, I love spreadsheets, and quite awhile ago I made one to keep track of how many creatures I've collected on this site. I use it consistently for this site, so I figured that since I love it, maybe someone else on here may also find it useful too.

Here is the link to view the google sheet, onc...

sonny • 5 February 2022 at 8:14 AM

this is a pretty good idea. ive been active on this site since 2014, and in that time there havent been any new ideas implemented to actually get cc to spend. staff has implemented ideas that open up ways to get cc creatures, but offered no ways to get cc itself. out of all the pet games i play egg...

tryvegan4theanimals • 4 February 2022 at 8:02 PM

@stellalunagirl Thank you for the ping 😊 I would looooove to see this happen! Being able to acquire 500cc a month through gameplay and helping other players would be so great.

@prairie Just spitballing here: maybe instead of a boycott, we can do a pledge to buy CC if this idea is implemented? I...

structuresfromsilence • 3 February 2022 at 9:52 PM

Thanks for the info @prairie. I agree that sign in rewards don't sound very interesting. It's unfortunate that @ian seems to be greedy ☹️ Sorry, I hope that's not hurtful. I just feel very frustrated by this site's apparent commitment to being completely pay to win.

@mr-blue-bones it does feel li...

Deleted • 3 February 2022 at 9:30 PM

@iia Well, you make a good point. But, in my case I don't tend to buy CSP unless they are to my liking. I picked 200CC because, it is enough for one user to get in a month while feeding for EC (busy or not with irl situations). Then, other users come into play. Whether it is another free-to-play use...

iia • 3 February 2022 at 9:02 PM

@Lucas @laylamocha
For reference: Eggcave releases a minimum of 3.2kcc worth of new (and rerelease) CSP every month. Say we can earn 200cc a month. That means that you could buy up to 7%(rounded up) of CSP as an ABSOLUTE minimum (if they add a 200cc csp or a 3rd or higher priced rerelease 200cc wil...

Deleted • 3 February 2022 at 7:33 PM

EggCave has been one of my favored sites ever since 2018, then I could spend afternoons just clicking and feeding for EC.. but overtime it took up too much of my time, not to say that I didn't have the creatures that I wanted by then..

If I couldn't get my hands on CC, a lot of the pretty crea...

prairie • 3 February 2022 at 3:29 PM

I think you don't hear too much about updates because throughout this entire site there are only Ian, Meteoroid, Orderedchaos, jazzyliea and mastergemma. (Also the eggcaveteam bot just send out auto messages I think)
But I think for site development and coding it might just be Ian and Meteoroid????...

stellalunagirl • 3 February 2022 at 3:27 PM

@brookie @iia @mr-blue-bones @prairie

I do agree that there should be more transparency on EC about big updates and changes. And I think this thread has had enough attention and input to warrant a response from @ian at this point.

I would say that there is little incentive to implement this c...

mr-blue-bones • 3 February 2022 at 1:38 PM

@iia One of the first things I noticed when I joined was a distinct lack of updates from @ian about what was happening site side or just communication in general.
On all the other websites I use there are frequent updates from the creators and mods about what they're planning, updates on what they'...

prairie • 3 February 2022 at 1:32 PM

@structuresfromsilence
No unfortunately. Ian has yet to reply to this topic or reach out to me in regards to it so best we can do is spread the word by pinging other active members of the community to keep the topic in high talking point.
For all I know ian wants to try to put the sign in plan h...

Orderedchaos • 3 February 2022 at 11:48 AM

@watagachi
Running any kind of script/auto feeder/clicker is not allowed. These kinds of things are incredibly hard on the server and can cause the site to slow down for everyone.

lobstertheremin • 1 February 2022 at 8:29 PM

While there are many ideas for improving the site that would take lots of time to code and implement, an EC to CC terminal would be relatively easy.

What say you, @Ian? Don't lose sight of the forest for the trees. It might be tempting to keep the status quo, but look at the site long-term. The p...

autumnal • 1 February 2022 at 8:14 PM

I agree @iia, the benefits outweigh the consequences. Don't worry @ian, the site will be okay. Why not just give it a try? Let us know 😊

aquafaba • 31 January 2022 at 6:17 PM

I want to bump what @iia said near the beginning of this conversation:

"Eggcave has surely been making a good chuck of cash with rereleases especially considering some of them have a value of 22USD. If they aren’t making money it’s because they’re is a decline of activity on this site. I find tha...

viltuvitrast • 31 January 2022 at 5:34 PM

I would also like to see this feature implemented 😊 it seems like a standard feature for pet sites, so I hope it will happen.

riceboysleeps • 30 January 2022 at 4:16 PM

@viltuvitrast I also want this feature. I would find it interesting to go through the earliest creatures. And sometimes it's helpful for site trivia as well.

riceboysleeps • 30 January 2022 at 4:14 PM

@sapphire12 I definitely want this. Stocking a shop is currently a bit tedious. This feature would make it much faster and easier to add new items to the shop.
