Hello. :) English is not my first language, so please excuse me if there's typos.

I have a few suggestions for the jobs. Right now is not a very interesting part of the site. It would be nice to see some love implemented to the jobs.

  1. new achievements. Everybody loves achievements! There could be achievements for reaching the last level of each job (even a meta achievement for reaching the last level of ALL the jobs), or for being in a job for x amount of time, with new forum titles too.

  2. perks for being on a certain job. For example, if I'm working on the Battle Coliseum I can get a very little decrease on the training center, or a very little discount on the battle shop, or a very little discount on the exp points, or an extra battle quest. I'm talking of a VERY little discount on those things. Said discounts will be getting bigger when you get a promotion, but still be a very small reward. Or if you are working on All That Glitters, have a little discount on the items of that shop (like All That Glitters, or Beach Shack). Or if you're working on Freyalise get an extra Carl quest, Library = extra library quest, Maleria= extra Maleria quest, and so on? If you work on the Recycling Center you could get a chance to double your melted recycle points for the day. Working on Seedlings could get you a little reduced time when growing your seeds on the Gardens. The problem, as was said after this posts, is how do Subeta do to keep people with multiple pets from abusing the system. May be restricting the job to one pet only per account?

Well, I hope you like this suggestions. New ones and constructive critiques are welcome. Thanks!

These aren't bad ideas, I would support that.

I have seen suggestions like this before, though I do support this (and the similar suggestions). I always have been wanting motivation to get some job other than what pays the best for my pet's stats.

New achievements and getting to know the payouts/titles in advance would be lovely too.

When it comes to perks, some jobs like the Subeta Tribune or the SAI or even Adopt-R-Us would not really have any obvious perks, but I am sure something can be thought up. In fact, if this idea were implemented, I would love to see what staff's ideas for those jobs' perks would be.

There really needs to be an official guide to the Job Agency. There was a user created guide listing all the jobs, job requirements and payments etc but I can't find it now.

Thanks. :)

Well, those were tricky, that's why I didn't put an example. xD But I guess the SAI could be related to intelligence? May be getting a little chance to get 2 points of intelligence when reading a book, or get a discount on the Spindles shop, or a better chance to get a boost of intel on your active pet when claiming your payment?

I have absolutely no ideas for Subeta Tribune and Adopt-R-Us right now, but yeah, I too would like to see too what new ideas staff could get for those. :)

I support 1, but I question the viability of 2 and 3.

With the second suggestion, I just think that is a lot of info to have. Maybe once you have the job, the information could be on its main page, but I think having it accessible from the job selection page would be tricky. -shrugs-

As for suggestion number three... Would the site-wide advantages only be applicable as related to the active pet? (I have 39 pet slots. I could potentially take advantage of all the perks if it is not.) If it is related to the active pet, will it even be worthwhile for them to code if it's not nice enough to tempt a person to change their active pet depending upon what they are doing? I don't think this is a good idea since most people would use their pet page and my pet page is already slow to load. I can't imagine what it would be like if it was accessed more often by other users, increasing the amount of queries being sent from it and slowing it down even more. It seems to me that the only way to make it work is to make all the perks pet specific, which sounds interesting but not that interesting. I'd be happier if they just increased the chances of getting stats the higher a pet ranked at their particular job. Maybe which stat the pet had a better chance at could be related to their occupation though. -shrugs- I don't know.

I've been using a guide located on two pet profiles: For Adopt R Us through Minion Market and For Pawn Shop through Weapon Warehouse... The user also has a guide in the forums (Click!) which I think is more up-to-date.

I guess that with suggestion 2 the staff can make the info available only if you click on the job, so you can decide if you want to take it or not. But yeah, I wouldn't mind having instead a sticky thread on the forums for people to check. :3

About suggestion 3, you're right, I didn't thought of people with massive families. The best thing I can think of right now is to transfer the jobs to the users instead of the pets. After wandering the Subetapedia articles about pets, only the Koras seems to be able to get a job without the owners intervention. I mean, pets can do tricks in exchange for food, but nothing else. And, even when I know there's still tons of pets not covered on the Subetapedia, and that tere's still a few pets with jobs on the site, it makes more sense to me that the user get the job and not the pet. If the user gets the job, people will not need to use the pet page, it could be placed somewhere else (may be on the Personal options? Or games?). That way you could only choose one job at a time. :)
