Some 𝐐𝐎𝐋 & 𝐔𝐈 Suggestions

@hinokazes

i lowkey do think that they should cycle out creatures more often rather than letting them just sit around. you're right, a lot of these creatures have been sitting around for mooooonths, and if VEND creatures can come back, why not just cycle them out? that way people aren't blindsided when something is added suddenly

altho that's more of a selfish thing cus it'll probably make you more stressed ^^;; since you'd get like no break on questing haha. that being said, it's best to just buy out the stores during downtime so you don't have to use user shops for quests...it definitely takes up time to build up a questing strongroom lol

Now that there's been a decent amount of forwardness from Ian about site developments, this forum topic kinda died down. But I just wanted to bump the thread so that these suggestions don't collect dust and also to suggest some of my own ideas.

1. When you are using a travel or buying a CC travel, it lets you select a creature in your cove and displays a preview of what that creature would look like with that specific travel on. This "Select Creature" dropdown is so confusingly sorted. When buying a CC travel, it is sorted by a version of Oldest First that is actually just sorting by lowest egg ID first (so if you resurrect a creature it would appear at the bottom of this list). When you are applying a travel in your inventory, it is sorting by what my best guess is a staggered/chunked alphabetized sorting? Idk. This suggestion is to standardize these dropdowns to be alphabetized, which will make it easier to navigate and easier to remember which creatures you have in which order so if you forget one creature's name, you'll remember what other creatures it's nearby and you don't have to switch pages. or whatever. Just standardize the ordering of dropdowns!

2. On the individual item pages in the Item Database, there's buttons allowing to search in the Auctions, the Trade Center, your shop stock, and your Strongroom. Can we get one more button that will search other users' shops for that particular item?

3. FILTERS IN THE STRONGROOM.

4. Population counters on the species archive pages.

I really would love to see the databases on site get a more thorough tagging and searching system. Misspelled search queries need to come up with 'did you mean [name]?' Because the species names on this site are so random, and so numerous, that remembering them and their spellings is super tedious. This would improve trivia answering, improve accessibility and make those databases easier to use.

Also, correct tagging on entries, more thorough tagging.

Just want to bump this again.
I know life is a bit busy for @Ian, but I do want to keep this active!

Bump again but man I've just been thinking about how I wish there was a way to earn CC beyond just trading for it or buying it. I understand it's a good way for the site to make money, I just wish I could earn it too even if very slowly, since Listdnats costs so much (I believe it was mentioned it cost way more in the past, even?) and some pre-final evolutions just look so good I want to keep them that way

@jarsha
You can currently earn CC through the Monthly Challenge/Daily Tasks. If you complete the 5 tasks each day for 25 days in a calendar month, you win 100CC. However you need to verify your account to access it, which at the moment involves handing over your mobile number (which I know some are unable or uncomfortable doing so). But that is supposed to change when the log in changes happen.

@minnie298a wait woah this is awesome! I'm so excited for the log in changes so I can participate in that, thank you so much for letting me know that's really relieving that you can earn CC that way!

This post was another topic in the Site Ideas and Feedback category, by @merit and I really like the idea and think it holds some weight. I would love to see it implemented. I'm linking it here because it was ironically drowned out by the forum games in the Recent Topics list.
Exclude Forum Games from Recent Topics?

"Hi, I've been trying to use the forums more lately and it's been really slow going. Most of the action seems to take place in the Forum Games section.

There's nothing wrong with that; forum games are fun and a great way to do forum post dailies. But it also means that the Recent Topics are mainly filled with them. I think this might keep other topics from getting more attention.

My thought was, what if the Forum Game topics were excluded from the Recent Topics list? This would give other posts a better chance to be seen. I also don't think it would hurt the forum games themselves much.

I don't know how easy this would be to implement, or how other players would feel about it. I would find it useful personally, but I'd love to hear other people's opinions!"

Since there has been no update on either galleries nor the new login updates (which were supposed to ensure safety and privacy for our accounts and also a massive quality of life that the playerbase has been asking for since forever, btw), I will continue pinging @ian whenever we get a forum requirement on dailies.
