@karamel yes, a lot of problems only affect newbies... and that may not bother us older members, but I think Egg Cave should be for everyone, and if it was easier for new members to join (and stay active) it would greatly raise @ian's add revenue, so he could pay for (more/better) creature artists.

@nenielsen
just some ideas...and they appear out of order...

maybe instead of 'seizing' dead creatures in the adoption center, eggcave could put them up for auction (prices relating to rarity) or only put common creatures in the ac.

eggcave could also add a 'graveyard' feature so you can see what creatures died and when. the said creatures would, of course, lose their names. a user would have the option of making it public or not, and it wouldn't show up on a person's profile.

another thing eggcave could do is allowing a user to have a 1/?? chance of recovering a creature, perhaps at the cost of exchanging other creatures. if it fails, no creatures will be lost. the chances could be lower for a rare creature, and if it is recovered once and dies again it will disappear. that kind of undermines the resurrection stone though, so maybe it would only be available on the day it dies.

a place like the 'thief shop' seems like a good idea 😊.

a chart listing the creatures by rarity would be useful, especially for newbies.

a few of the commons could be cycled out of the cave.

if there are going to be items that can be purchased, they need to be useful (not junk) and not very many. eggcave is a pretty simple site. you have eggs, you feed them, you give them travels, you trade for more eggs. the events seem to be centered around feeding for the most part. there doesn't need to be a whole lot of clutter and items on the site. maybe badges and other profile enhancers, or the ability to add more letters on creature names?

these are just ideas...

@plisser9 those are some great ideas! I'll add them to the list later, okay? 😉
