Another Suggestion?

I think a "Feed All" button should appear at the top of a person's page when all of their creatures are starving. I see how it would be easier to just let a user's creatures starve, but I have a way to keep other players from doing that. A "hunger" bar could be put on top of the "happiness" bar on a creature's page, and if the creature's happiness gets to a certain point, it gets taken away to the adoption center and put up for adoption. If a creature's happiness is about to reach that point, an e-mail is sent to the owner stating that the creature is about to be taken away due to unhappiness with it's owner. If the owner feeds it then, that shows that they are responsible enough to take care of it and get to keep it as long as they keep feeding it. And as @fakeworld and @april__ said below, you shouldn't gain any EC off of it. I think maybe you should get, like, the amount you get from feeding one creature for clicking that button. Because you're still doing a good deed and all, feeding starving creatures. I wouldn't do it for the EC. I'm not exactly sure how this will work, but if others will help add on to this, I think something might work out.

THIS IS AN EDIT. THE PEOPLE WHO DISAGREED WITH ME BEFORE WERE RIGHT; I JUST CHANGED THIS. THEY WERE NOT WITHOUT REASON.

But then it would be to easy to get EC... It would give people like 1mill a day. I dont really like the idea, sorry!

@whitefire
Well, I disagree, because you should at least have to put a little time and effort into hatching the creatures, instead of just clicking a simple button to feed them all...

@Whitefire

This has been suggested many times, and turned down, simply for the reason of lazy EC hoarding.

@hayz

Oh. Thanks for telling me! I'm going to edit it and change it so that it says something like "A feed all button should appear when all of the creatures of a user are starving." I still see how that's "Lazy EC hoarding," but it could end up saving some creatures that are on the verge of starvation. Anyways, thanks!

@whitefire Then feeding eggs wouldn't be a challenege, it wouldn't be actually be fun nomore.

@fakeworld ? I don't get what you mean... I'm not the brightest of people, but I thought the system I thought up would work out...



At everyone else: How come everyone's paying attention to this instead of my other suggestion?! I'd actually like to get some posts on it as well! ... I do like getting peoples' opinions on this, don't get me wrong.

@whitefire as said above, people will simply use it for the EC. Although that's what people use it for now, it'll just make it easier to gain EC's. Maybe taking off 20% of EC each egg gives you will help. You will not gain that much, but then again people will find people and just click feed all for the EC's of it. It wouldn't be quite equal.

april__ • 1 July 2012 at 11:07 PM

I might agree with this if you didn't gain EC from doing it.

@fakeworld @april__
Yeah, thanks for that suggestion for my suggestion! lolz I'll say that right now.
