I don't think it would change much, if anything even less people would use the resort. I'm sure it's mostly used by people who are new to the site and/or those who go on a longer vacation (but really, you don't need to use it o.o). A lot of people want to have the gourmand achievement so having a fed pet only gets in the way of that:/

If you battle it is pretty useful to keep at least one pet in the resort since they can't battle if they are hungry.
Still, it is a portion of the site that some people do use. Not everyone uses the resort, but many people do, and this will get at least a portion of sP out of the site. I think little sP sinks like this would help tremendously to get sP off of the site.
And an 800 sP increase per day isn't too much, and 1000 sP is easily earned. I think resort fees could go even higher than 1000 sP a day, since you are paying to keep your pet happy and full. 200 sP is a real bargain!
Ahh, that does makes sense! I'm not a battler myself, but this is good to know.

True, useful for people who don't need said achievement anymore. But... you can just as well give your pet a cheap toy to play with xD Oh well, I'm the last person being against this suggestion! Just saying I personally don't use the resort

Unless the newbies restock the potions from the magic box, or settle for Chibi, Scribble or Dark Matter, potions and elixirs are not a SP sink.
Unless you restock the food, food, toys and such are not a SP sink
Unless you restock all of your quest items from the main shops, quests are not a SP sink
An expense =/= a SP sink
I'm not saying that I'm against the idea of SP sinks, just that it needs to be handled carefully.
Again, a good SP sink is probably not one that would just affect old accounts.
Maybe there could be something you feed to/use on your gourmand pet to make them less full so you can feed them more? Or an option where you pay sP to make your battle pet full so they can fight?
I would use the second one SO MUCH, I don't bother to keep my battler in the resort but putting them in there doesn't work immediately, this would be so much easier than vending a bunch of food and feeding it all to him.
they/them/theirs, please.
I've always thought the Lizard Events would be a good sP sink. Either way I feel like they should be changed to give out different kind of items or rewards besides restockable r99 items. Whether another aspect is added where paying a fee for a month-long buff or something gives you an extra reward or it's changed where buying a buff is the new way to get items, idk. Is anyone even reading these topics? Keith hasn't been on in 4 days and wasn't there one of these topics for buffs and rn the only buff we have is the restocking one.

Maybe they could create a few more "buffs" for things around the site (maybe something to make training faster that day, allow you a shorter buy time in the millionaire center temporarily, a higher chance at raffle tickets that day, 1 extra quest for each NPC etc.) and then sell said buffs in a special shop for 1mil+. If the buffs are good, people will come back daily.
The examples I used are just things I know I'd pay for.

I'd spend a bunch of millions (and by a bunch, I mean a whole bunch of hundreds of millions) to recolor face features personally.
Unlockable eyes/mouths with the colortint of my choice would be my alltime dream and you could bet everything I own would sink into this!
If not, it could also be super nice to have exclusive items that are recolorable - such as SBQ cosmetics for example, or a brand new line of items (eyes, mouths, glasses, hair, clothes, accessories etc.)
There are so many items I like - but they often have a few color variations only (Even more bummed out when it's a collection item because it means there's only ONE choice haha). I'd love to have even a few items with the option of recoloring!
I would pay for pretty much all of it, seriously. Aside from CSC there's nothing I actually spend my sP on and I've saved up to 1bil+ before, and the only reason I don't still have it is because of CSC. I have no reason to spend my sP on anything else. But I'd pay sooo muuuuch to be able to recolor facial features, or have something like that clothing shop in Shengui Guo. Usually the only eyes I use are brown or pink but it feels like there aren't many of them and I'd pay so much to be able to make more, or something. If the salon works (although right now, in the new wardrobe, it does not actually work all that well, considering we still can't input custom color codes.....) Idk why a facial-feature thing wouldn't?
Maybe some sort of item or feature that lets your pet go down in hunger by one point? I know people trying to go for the achievement (like myself) would love this occasionally. I know there is an item on site that does this, but if your pet is the battle pet also, it doesn't help.
I'm a little tired while typing this, so please excuse me if this sounds like a bad idea. Just something smallish?

Bring back old Subq lines but not as restocking stuff. Make them available with unlimited stock for a limited time. BUT with big price tags.
