A suggestion to make CS a bit more interactive

Postby Larkspur1678 » Sat Jan 22, 2022 12:49 pm

Just been thinking a bit the past few days on how to add more to CS without turning it into a completely different game. I only have one suggestion for right now but I think it’s an alright one.

Some kind of monthly/bi-monthly poll that lets users influence a pet/item release. ie voting on what lines store pets will be made on(out of a list of like 4 species), voting what obscure holiday(like ‘talk like a pirate day’) in a certain month gets a pet/item release, maybe even a vote on 2nd gen couples. It’s something that I think could help users feel more involved while still giving the artists enough freedom to be creative. I don’t know how far in advance artists make designs so that might be a speed bump, but I think even just an occasional poll on something relatively small will make CS just feel more like user opinions matter in some way.

"Vague" Suggestion, Thread/Sugg Title feels a bit like "Click-Bait", could be a bit more Descriptive... :roll:

Want Users to vote, then OK, why don't you put a Poll in your Sugg also...? :o

Not much happens with all Suggs in this 'Site Suggestions' Sub-Forum, the Artists "sometimes" pick up a Sugg from the "Pet Design" and "2nd/3rd Gen" Threads, you/we would need some "pre-curating Selection" to fulfill your Sugg, with Users voting (for some limited time), and then "one" Artist would be "assigned" to "make the Pets/Litter", with "everybody on the Site" expecting exactly those Pets... [I wouldn't like to be that Artist, to be honest...]

=> Result: 80% of everybody disappointed because of the "High Expectations"... :(

Let the Artists "sometimes" pick up an Idea and surprise us nicely...! :idea:

=> No Support... (-1)

... "No Support", at least for "monthly/bi-monthly", could be an Idea though as a "yearly" Event (like the 'Staff Dogs' or 'GH Cats')... :idea:
"Pragmatic Thinker"...
I don't try to read anymore when Users use ']Size=85[' (or smaller...!) on the Forum or in their Trade Rules..., as this is completely unreadable on Desktop in any Browser...!
.
In the Jungle/Forest/Cave...!: wrote:CaptainSpank is hanging upside-down from lianas, wondering how that happened...!
Oh no!, a snake in the grass! CaptainSpank jumps out of the way and hides behind a mushroom...!

I usually have Sigs turned OFF, (except Events), because of too many heavy ('.gif') Pix (metered Connection, I pay per Mb), and I don't want to know the SPR Orientation of other Players on a Game Site...
Current: Sigs turned OFF...! (Feb 2023: I don't read/post on the Forum anymore after getting a Board Warning...)

(Total blocked (approx): 23.2Gb.)

The Pets from my 'Special & Rare Pets' Group are open for (nice!) Trades / True Date Swaps...

Dreamie(s)...!):
- Fishes - (=> 11 missing...!) // - Bats - (=> 17 missing...!)
- Owls - (=> 11 missing...!) // - Staff Dogs - [2010-2019] COMPLETED...!! (Missing 2x [2020] + 2x [2021].)
"Big" Dreamies: Animal Eggs #45(2014) + #100(2022). (Missing x15 in total...)
All Animal Eggs I already have are visible in this Group, with their corresponding Pet...

I agree for a yearly event idea as well, imagine users pick a cool new event that becomes a permanent addition to the site! Sounds fun.

{support, I love this concept! To add a suggestion: maybe the choices could be selected from the existing pet & item suggestion threads? So we can not only participate in choosing new things but have our own suggestions used. Gives artists plenty of room for their own creative ideas too c: I see lots of the thread suggestions including small events and such so it would work for all the above!}
