Thanks! :) Hmm, drag and drop for stickers and TCs seem to work for me on my iPad 2, although they're /very/ laggy (probably due to size and the fact that I'm using an iPad 2). I'll remove that section unless someone points out that they don't work. c: On the other hand, the arrow dropdowns on the pets page doesn't work on my iPad (I had to type in the TC page manually). Should I add that here or make a thread in P&B?

Everything's been updated for my part. (And hey! When I was editing, the spoiler section didn't duplicate! ;) Love you, Bug.)


Another idea. For the Battle Coliseum: Move the "Total Damange/Healing" section to the top of the battle screen columns, rather than the bottom.

As it stands right now, I have to scroll a mile down just to see how I did in the last move. In addition to two weapons and a scroll, I once had 3 blessings and 2 curses activate. I counted, and it made my column have 24 lines before I actually got to the damage total. I'd much prefer to get those final stats at a quick glance, without needed to scroll.

I find 's suggestion that scrolls work like weapons 'controversial' because I want it to totally work the other way. I plan my scrolls and weapons ahead of time, so the opening up of the weapons causes the page to move around and me to do extra scrolling for no reason useful to me. It would be doubly annoying to me if it did this twice once for weapons and again for scrolls.

If you mean for this list to not contain controversial stuff, you should remove it.

The mass move splash page is absolutely necessary, because users panic panic Panic Panic PANICK!!!eleventy!11 about losing their stuff if it's not there. grace didn't make a mistake when she put that in. 's compromise sounds good, but she tried that.

All the suggestions here with "bulk" in them? I find them controversial, and they've been shot down by staff before. They should be removed. I worked hard for those Achievements, and any other user should too. Not all Achievements are meant to be easy and if you want to remove the work from these, then you should make a full Suggestion. People who did them the hard way should at least get an extra (and immediately retired) Achievement for having done this.

It kind of sounds like they might be controversial because you don't like them.

And if staff have shot down things before, you should link to the post or comment so that they can remove it. If there's no quote that they can put in the 'Not Happening' section, then they might as well keep it on because people will just keep asking for it. Or, if it was removed and put in that section, at least and will have something to point at when people do suggest it again.

I said outright I don't like them. There's nothing wrong with not liking something. You are implying I'm the only one. You are wrong on this. I'm just the person typing it here.

If it is necessary for me to absolutely prove that something is controversial, and the curators of this thread agree with this, then they are being disingenuous. If this is true, then staff should ignore this topic because it's an attempted end-run around the usual Suggestion process.

I find marking this suggestion as "controversial" is a bit of an overreaction. And though I do agree that the weapons auto-changing to the 'Customize' tab is annoying, the suggestion to remove the auto-change isn't on here, since I know many users do use the functionality. My suggestion was not to make scrolls act exactly like the weapons, rather to simply provide a 'Customize' tab. Right now, there's no way to edit the scrolls before a battle. So, no need to add additional clicks, just improve battle functionality. The suggestion on the first page is already written to reflect this- we don't need to copy behavior, but provide a way to edit the scrolls.

I believe the compromise that was decided upon was for the vault splash page to simply contain a "Back" button, which was not implemented, nor was it tried before. Perhaps can edit the front page to reflect this?


Additionally, , I believe staff has remarked that doing things in bulk for achievements (flowers/fairies/pumpkins/etc) won't be simplified. You have on the list flowers & fairies, and I want to edit those suggestions into my 1st page post to be under the "Not Happening" section. I'm going to work on finding an actual statement, and let you know.

[edit] Reading the comments posted before I could get my own comment in... I believe staff are more than capable of determining when a suggestion might be controversial, and thusly not implement before communicating that fact. As much as I think Amber is a demon wrong for nothing liking pasta, there are some smart cookies on staff.

By finding a quote that they have missed? It's just being helpful. Two people can't be expected to find everything that Staff have ever said. I highly doubt that they are trying to be disingenuous just because they are adding a suggestion to a list while Staff said somewhere else that it's not happening.

I agree with your comment about staff, they are super smart and very kind and I also like them very much. Subeta is a wee small boutique site and the fact that it's totally fucking awesome compared to sad pathetic sites like Gaia and Neopets is because staff is so incredibly busy and so hardworking.

This thread isn't just any thread though. By taking the act of collating all of the smaller dibbly Suggestions, you are performing a task that is very nearly MiniModworthy IMO. Leaving it all up to staff and only staff meh. It is also my own opinion then, that someone(s_ who is curating this thread might choose to make an editorial decision to make it as easy on our super busy and hardworking staff as they can instead of making them read through all the ones they know they're not gonna do over and over again when they do have the time to check in.

I've seen you and around the site. I like you both. I also find you both are way more helpful to the average user than I ever am. Just sayin'.

From what I remember, I'm pretty sure staff have said that they read through most of the posts on threads like this anyway before implementing things.

The first post is meant to be just a compilation of suggestions. If anyone disagrees with any of the suggestions or has reasons why they might not be great, they'd be more than welcome to post about it here and staff can read that and take it into account before they implement something.

We're not trying to tell staff exactly what to do, it's just a nice list of things that people have expressed interest in having added or changed.

So, I can't actually find an official statement from staff staying they won't be adding ways to mass transfer/release/carve/etc. I found some old threads, but they never received staff comment: Mass Release Option For Fairies? mass pumpkin carving! I searched through the last couple years on the Suggestions main page, as well as some in Items and Achievements subforums. Not to mention the Archived boards. Staff might've made comments in news comments, or in other forums, but I'm not sure where to look.

If staff wanted to comment here, we could move these items off of the first post.

Goodness, what a lot of posts! x)

I would love for people to link official staff statements for suggestions that won't be implemented so and I can sort things out into their proper sections. I know a lot of users (probably including me) have shot down the 'bulk' achievements suggestions before, but I can't remember a time that staff has officially weighed in. If anyone finds some evidence for it or can get a staff comment I'd be happy to remove those suggestions. Until then, they can stay. c:

Additionally, I never said I wanted the vault to shop queue info removed. I know a lot of users would panic without it. xD I just don't see the need for a whole page that disrupts me from moving things around (a header would be better imo), but I'm clearly not in the majority here. Fine by me - a back button would still be really useful.

And as always, hurray for staff! I love that they even stop to listen to our suggestions, and seeing so many of them get implemented is awesome. ^_^

Thanks for reminding me to edit the vault suggestion (I clean forgot), and thanks for looking for official staff statements on the bulk suggestions! ^_^

It would be great if when we hovered items, there were markers indicating what they're for, because it's not always obvious. I've lost count how many times I bought something thinking it could be a minion only to find out that it's a toy and vice-versa D8

"Reverse the order of clothes listed in the Profile 'Outfit' section."

In the Outfit section of our profiles, if someone has it set to show the HA clothes, they're listed in reverse order. (Aka, the items at the "bottom" of the HA are listed first, while the top layered ones, are listed last.) (See my profile as an example.) In the wardrobe, as well as the shared outfits section of the site, the order is reversed. (So top layer is listed first.) So I'd love if the order was corrected on the profile to make it a bit more intuitive, and have top layer be first.

I think this suggestion would do well in its own topic with more discussion. There are probably people who would be against it because they prefer the current ordering. Same with 's suggestion. These require a bit more discussion imo.

Hey , Sure thing! Just clarifying, my last two suggestions were both dealing with the order of things. Were you looking at the Battle Damage/Healing order, or the profile HA clothes order?

Hey there! Drawing attention to Bug's post above, you should probably take that suggestion into a separate board to get other's feedback. It goes a bit too outside the small usability that this board tries to specialize in. (Or, if you don't want to man it, I could make a board for you.)

(And shout out to to monitor in order to remove the suggestions that are going to be opened outside this board.)

HI I'M STAFF and here to say we have no intention on simplifying those achievements/adding a way to mass do things (carve, release, etc). This could change in the future if we find a cool lore way to update one of those ways or something. But it's a very very slim chance. :)

(also and I totally read through this thread and pick things to update for sprints. So we def check this thread out. I don't see it as a YOU GUYS MUST DO THIS type of thing at all!)
