Luv's Suggestions & Ideas Corner

luv • 3 June 2012 at 9:44 AM

Welcome to my Suggestion & Idea corner! If I made a topic for all of my ideas for Egg Cave, I would have a TON of topics to keep track of, so they're all RIGHT HERE!

1) Roleplay Moderator
So many roleplays are on Egg Cave... it's BEYOND crazy! I have an account that would be a year old in 7 days! (Yay! June 10th I joined! *Pokes @luvduv *) so that's over 6 months, definitely. I am 12 years old, not 16, but it wouldn't be a full moderator position. I'd be happy to take it on! Basically, people would have to post in a topic and get their roleplays approved before they'd be allowed, and the one sentence posts would be eliminated as SPAM.
2) 'Select all non-immortals' option at Tim's.
Pretty self-explanatory, I've lost creatures because I accidently un-selected a non-immortal, and I know I'm not the only one.
3) A forum specifically for Creature Suggestions, and nothing else.
Also very self-explanatory.
4) More Egg Cave Contests
I'd be happy to run these too! Draws, raffles, plenty of lovely things.
5) No limit -1 minute- on message sending, the same with comments.
6) No limit on word counts in the forums, or at least a higher limit.
7) A Trade CC option in the Trade Center.

@luv

I like the ideas. And I'd like to add a 'Trade Travel Option'.

luv • 3 June 2012 at 9:58 AM

@Arabianninja
Ooh! I like that!
8) Trade Travel Option
Also straightforward, but it would definitely be nice!
9) Gift creatures option
This would be great to give your friends creatures!
10) Creature Fighting Center
This would give Egg Cave a new option. You take your creatures, and as they evolve they level up, to become Ultimate Fighters! Or Healers, or whatever. Certain eggs (rare, CC, common) could start at certain levels, and certain eggs could have a low level (or high) that could never change!
11) Keyboard to Keyboard forum
If someone wanted to present an idea to a moderator, they type it in, post the topic, and the topics are invisible to everyone but moderators and the people who made them
12) Another asteroid pet, that would really get people jumping all over the asteroid.

@luv
How about an auction?

hayz • 3 June 2012 at 11:40 AM

@luv

1)

Wear the shield,

Be the moderator.

2)

I love you. XD

3)

Clears up all the bluhbluhs.

4)

YOU.

ONTO THE CONTEST PLANNING BOARD.

[[They should really have a forum for contest planning. And one thread as a contest planning board made by the mods saying which contests they are considering.]]

5)

I kind of disagree. I mean, for the PMs, I understand, because they only let you post twice in a row before stopping [I think] but for the comments, it prevents spam. c:

6)

The limit is 1500 characters, right? I DEMAND IT AT 2K.

7)

Yes. Yes, please

luv • 8 June 2012 at 4:54 PM

@leafpelt
13) Auction on Egg Cave Creature, a CC and an EC one. That would be awesome!
14) A "wishlist" page, where you can save the creatures you like in a special page for you and others to see, and rate them from 1 to 5 stars, from 1= like, 2=want, 3=really want, 4=love, 5=will die if I don't have
15) Sleepover. It would HAVE to be seperate from the TC, so it couldn't become an object of cheating on trades, but you send your creature to someone's cove for up to a month, minimum of two days, as a sleepover! It cannot die while in their cove, because while booking Tim's or feeding, it will still appear as though in your cove.
16) Up stage potion. Using a potion to go down stages would be unfair, but you should be able to increase the stage of your creature with a potion.
17) Reversal potion, which reverses ANYTHING that you've added to your creature. Kind of like a reset button. (Will not effect travels and Tim's.)
@hayz
I don't mean on the same wall, I mean writing to two different people without having to wait because of a limit.

Deleted • 8 June 2012 at 5:00 PM

@luv Oh! And at the fighting center, you could bid CC!

I also think that there should be a possible way of getting older pets, like once a year every pet would be released to the cave. It would be random and not announced in the blog!

leafpelt • 8 June 2012 at 6:37 PM

@luv
Transfer creature button to side account? You'll have to type a password to confirm it.

luv • 9 June 2012 at 4:54 PM

@leafpelt
@blackdeathkitty
I like it!
18) Creature Transferring
From one account to a side, multiple creatures allowed at a time, password to confirm. Some people may argue that if a hacker got your password they could move all your pets to their account, but technically they could do that as long as they knew how to trade. 😉
19) Re-release of rares.
Only 5 of each, an older creature will be released in to the cave on any random day of the year, either every six month or annually. It would keep users going to the cave, and would be a great way for newer players to have a chance at rare eggs.
20) A creature that starts with Z.
Okay, okay, this is kind of crazy, but COME ON we really need a Z creature. XD
21) Italic, bold, and underlined text.
I don't want to read posts in solid colour, so I won't recommend that, but italic bold and underlined would be a nice change from having to ALWAYS put important things in CAPS. (There are several examples in this post!)
22) A use for EC.
It's good for Tim's, but even giving it a trading factor hasn't upped it's value. We have to find a good use for EC, like... (stay tuned for next idea)

Deleted • 9 June 2012 at 5:01 PM

@luv

#22

I agree, there should be more uses for CC. Like more creatures that you can buy.


Also, sorta like the Draik on Neopets, I think that it should be possible to get Macbots and Tines or other pets, just it would be REALLY rare.

luv • 9 June 2012 at 5:08 PM

@blackdeathkitty
EXACTLY.
@leafpelt
Be here for da big reveal, my FAVOURITE idea I've made!
Here it is:
23) IMMORTALIZATION CENTER.
For a fee of 5,000/10,000 EC (number changes as account ages) you can immortalize creatures. You could get one free immortalization a month, and 3 at the above prices. Once you wanted to immortalize five, the first is free, the next three are, but then you would have to pay one of the prices +500, and every time it would add another 500 to your total.
24) Life Potion
750 CC, brings back one creature that has died.
25) A way for us to tell if moderators are online.
26) A special way to get a hold of moderators besides @pings and PM's. Contact us is okay, but it's not for just sending things to the moderators. Like the MM system. (MM- Moderator Messages)
27) Personal hashtags. Every user has a personal hash (to make it simple, their username). For ex. Mine would be #luv, which I use a lot. Also in hashtags a "matching hash" search. So when I look up my username, I don't get stuff like # ILuvIt and # Luvbond, when they aren't even mine.
28) Monthly draws, raffles, prizes. On the annual anniversary of a creature, for ex., there would be a draw where like, 4 lucky users (or however many stages it had including egg) would win a frozen stage of the creature (obviously last stages wouldn't be frozen.)
#LuvsIdeas - Spread the word, and my ideas! Just make sure you hastag 'em.

Deleted • 9 June 2012 at 5:16 PM

I like all of them, but I think that the MM thing seems a bit like tickets and PMs.

For the life potion, maybe you should only give one per year or one per every six months so people don't abuse it.

leafpelt • 10 June 2012 at 1:18 AM

@luv

I'm not sure about the rare creature thing..the doovoo and macbot users would be all: @$*(&%*(_*))*!!!!!!)(&)))****()&)%#%@*())(

How about......an unstar potion!(if its not stated already) or and change the title of the topic button(i really need those!)

OR>>>

A search forums button. You can search by user, topic or phrase!

luv • 22 July 2012 at 5:11 PM

@Leafpelt
I like all of those!
It's true the rare creature thing, but it would be a maximum of four users. What about every 6 months?
29) Search forums
By username, by EXACT hash, by topic, by phrase inside the post... etc.
30) An edit the title button
31) An unstar potion
32) A "travel trade" button.
Say you have a nothern outer space travel (really rare) and an SoB (even rarer) and you want to switch them. You just press "transfer travel" and select the two creatures, and it switches them! 😊
33) A special section of the board for clubs
Like, bunny club (MINE, YAY!), or onny club or luvlei club or... you get the picture.

leafpelt • 23 July 2012 at 11:13 AM

@luv
That's good. 😊

Hmm...search by creature button? Cause I always want to know which coves have tines. XD

luv • 23 July 2012 at 3:58 PM

@Leafpelt
So true, but my idea is slightly more complex 😊 .
34) Search Creature Button
This is an advanced idea, with lots of features. You go to the "search" box, and you could select "tine" for example in the "creature section" you can leave the rest blank, but there are also options for: Stage of the creature, a certain travel or none at all, gender, whether or not it's frozen, name, certain letters in the name and finally... profile text. So you could type in "UFT" and it would bring up all the UFT tines (or whatever species you were looking for)
35) An email sent to users who have not been on for 7 months, asking if it is okay for their rarest creatures to be given away to a user who wins a raffle or something, or just put in the adoption centre or TC for UFA. They could always say no, and another email wouldn't be sent to them until the two year mark, which they would always be allowed to decline.
36) A button you can click in the TC (options buttons) that will automatically add "UFT" or "TNT" {transfer not trade, I invented that and people use it and I feel so special!} or "res." to your lot.

linpug • 23 July 2012 at 4:06 PM

@luv
Wow, there are a lot. XD I read the first page, and there are all great. 😊
But you copied my CC and travels trading idea. XD

One of my ideas was to search how many of a species there is, and how many stages of that species. 😊
Another one is to retire asteroid pets. Storticais don't even sell for 250CC now. 😋

luv • 23 July 2012 at 4:23 PM

@Linpug
Did I? I didn't mean to. I came up with all those ideas myself, unless it was with the help of like leafpelt or someone.

I think a lot of people probably suggest travel & CC trading.

tonto67 • 23 July 2012 at 4:56 PM

@luv
Yeah, a RP moderator would be a smart idea, and I totally know what you mean. I'm only 11 but theres no sence in discrimination based on age. So i think you'd be a good Role play mod : )

Also, I think everyone dreams to beable to trade CC it would be a handy tool to have.

luv • 23 July 2012 at 5:00 PM

@Tonto67
Thank you!

tonto67 • 23 July 2012 at 5:00 PM

@luv

No problem : )

chowchow2012 • 23 July 2012 at 6:10 PM

@luv
Maybe you should add an search "exact name of a creature" because I wanted to name my creature something so I searched in the bar... Scrolled through 25 pages just to find it was taken =_=*.

Also in the the TC there should something that you can actually insert your wanted creatures for your lot and then add a search bar for it. So the people owning that species can find out who wants what species

Also you should be able to see happiness of creatures/in Tim's because lots people put their commons UFA but then their owner probably didn't feed them so when you get them they'll die..

seaangel • 23 July 2012 at 6:18 PM

@luv

I absolutely LOVE the no limit on characters in a post. I wish that was here now.

luv • 23 July 2012 at 6:58 PM

@Seaangel
Thanks!
@chowchow2012
Ahh, I've been meaning to write that for FOREVER! Thanks for bringing it up!

37) A search for "exact matches" button.
For example, if I search up my username from my sides, it takes pages and pages and pages to finally find my profile. It's easier to go comment diving for a direct link, and that shouldn't be the case.
38) Emergency pings
This is where if you find a topic you want a moderator to come to DESPERATELY, but it isn't a topic you would report, it's a creature idea, or a club, or something. You can only use one per topic, and you only get one a month. It would show up as a notification: "So and so has EMERGENCY pinged you, head over to {said topic link here} right away!" They would be for moderators ONLY, and you can't save up the mod pings, they would also show up as a bright red horn.
39) More common blog topics
They used to be once a week, now they're once a month and it is ALWAYS announcing the CSP's. Come on Ian, better things!

leafpelt • 23 July 2012 at 7:22 PM

@luv
Transfer creature button from 1 account to another? Like dragon cave. That way, we don't need to offer commons. Or, how about a trade EC only(no using commons)?

luv • 25 July 2012 at 12:19 PM

@Leafpelt
I do have exclusive EC trade, but it is combined with a CC option earlier on the list, I already have the transferring as well.
40) Cove numbering.
Instead of just alphabetical order, you can number them with importance. So for example, your non-immortals come first. That way, if someone is only going to feed say, 20, they feed the non-immortals, not the mix.

That's all I have today. O.o

mewlynnmagic • 25 July 2012 at 3:16 PM

@luv

The Auction Center.

It would be a building where you could hold auctions.

There will be 3 sections.

Creature bidding, EC, bidding, and CC bidding.

Creature Bidding is for creatures x creatures.

EC is for Creatures x EC.

CC is for Creatures x CC.

For PRIVATE Trading, (ex. Transfers, trading with specific people) that could be another section.

You like? 😊

luv • 25 July 2012 at 6:58 PM

@Mewlynnmagic
Hmm... I do! 😊 I'll make that an idea!
41) Auction Centre
See above post for information.
ALSO: Auctions would be started by users, moderators, or just randomly posted
42) Entertainment Board
Authors from around Egg Cave could make novels and post them for users to read, or singers could sing cover songs, artists paint pictures (they would all have to be appropriate). I realize the Arts & Multimedia section is like this, except you would have to apply and be selected, there would be no word limit, links would not have to be used and comments could be left on things (not posts) and 1-5 star ratings.

jennifer • 28 August 2012 at 11:20 PM

These are all great ideas.
