- either or, really! We should chat on AIM soon. I'm all about the pet-aspects of this notjustapet-site. Actually private discussion followed by a board from our findings together would be good :)

I'm up for this, let's set it up somewhere that isn't this board

( I want to see what comes of this convo!!)

On topic: We are really considering internally right now how to increase the number of pet slots. We've seen a lot of people come over from Neopets recently (I'm assuming you're one of them) and that is the primary thing they're asking for, and at this point it's not that hard to just click a button and increase the number of pets. We've got the database capabilities, and adding five new pets isn't as hard as it used to be.

HOWEVER. With all of the things that we've been doing lately, we want to try and make adding new pet slots something fun, attach it to a NPC and some sort of small feature, so that's what we're working on :)

We want people to get more pet slots when we make them available, because it generally means more 'economic' activity on the site :) Buying potions, getting treasure items, training, etc are all valuable to the health of the site, so they are generally good for us :P So no, I don't think there will be a chance component :) (no RANDOM EVENT WHILE VENDING, 1/1000000 CHANCE OF GETTING IT)

I'm down to increase it to 6 for people who like even numbers more, but I think adding more slots for doing things is way cooler than just increasing base slots.

There is already a thread for suggesting more pet slots over here, and a thread for suggesting additional base slotshere.

Since this thread is duplicating previous suggestions, please continue the discussions at the existing suggestion threads.
