Since someone will probably bring it up:
I'm pretty sure that the difference between the possible coding for searching for all unowned pets and adding all unknown pets is that with searching, I *think* the system just does a query or something--it just looks for the pets. It doesn't do anything else.
But then with adding, the system not only searched for pets, it has to make changes in the database (in order to change people's wishlists)--and that could potentially be a lot.
While searching might place strain on the server, I think it would only do so if a lot a lot a lotttt of people searched at once (such as at the beginning of the release of such a feature, but probably not any time else). With adding pets, I have a feeling CS is gonna crash with how many people will use that function if it ever came out (which it won't, since it's been denied).
... please keep in mind that I could be wrong about all of this, given that I'm only a teenager who is looking to get some kind of computer programming job in the future. XD I know a bit, but not a lot.
Was your pet adopted December 18, any year, or December 24, 2011? It is most likely an older pet! CLICK ME to identify your pet!
