I wonder when the vending and restocking will be in its testing period. Also when something/s will happen with the sp sink. It's sad to see so many great idea's in suggestions, but nothing seems to change. I'm a little scared its going to be 5 months, 10 months, a year and 6 months,...ever? If nothing happens it may turn into pay-to-play. Apocalyptic dust bowel. To think we may be closer to gaia's economy someday in the future. -shivers-
I was going to correct the apocalyptic dust "bowel" but I think that fits right now. I really don't want to this site to turn into pay to play.

Is it not already in "testing" period? Keith has made adjustments twice over the course of the past 3-4 weeks now for restocking (here and another one somewhere I don't remember where) which you have to give it some time to see how the changes are affecting the system.
I think if you ask for too many changes at one time you won't be able to see what affected what and how, and if something makes it worse you wouldn't be able to tell.
These topics confuse me because changes are being made and feedback is being taken into consideration (no more releasing items via vending here) so it's a basically time will tell/one thing at a time dealio.
That's how I view it, at least but I know they're doing SOMETHING, which you make it seem like they're just letting the site go.
I thought we've been in the vending and restocking testing period for a while now.
Then again, the answer's probably also the first and only thing I thought of when I saw the thread title:
SOON.
Asking "when" on Subeta is futile.
The answer is most likely to be "soon" which is Subeta speak means "who the fuck knows"
Keith mentioned an sp sink here today. Idk what soon means. I mean it seems pretty specific for it not to be implemented relatively soon. At least that's what I'm hoping.
I definitely share your fear. I logged into gaia once after a few years and the economy was amazingly dreadful. I was like, what happened here? Then I left. xD
The sP sink Keith mentioned is one I've been posting about too -- it's going to include prizes that use retired currency (aka plot prizes, reading drive, etc) that are collectable items so people can finish their collections :D and I are working on finding some more items for it and getting a news post explaining it :)
@ murph Perhaps they'll create a sP sink during the next event (Vesnali?). They seem to incorporate them in past ones (Peka-boo/Wearable contests etc, right?)
oh snap. well there ya go, lmfao not ariel wth
@ ariel (omg sorry I pinged you |D) If that's not tangible soon, I don't know what is! 8D eeeeeeeeeeeee so excited!
Yeah, I can totally see that happening! Vesnali's literally right around the corner to boot (yesss bring on the cute spring fare). c: Cute avatar btw. <3
Restocking has been testing for more than a week now :).
💖 ✨ 🤗
Wait, collection items only? Not the wearables?
stares at islander plot wears, weeps
CAN NOT wait for this sP sink that's in the works. I hope it's majorly successful.
I hope books are going to be included in the collectable rerelease because I came to the conclusion not too long ago that i still needed to read most RD books to my pets and I ran out of currency ages ago :(
It's good to hear it's being actively worked on now ^^ excited

Food and books will count! :) We are going to do something different for clothes/minions in the future! :)
sweeeeet. Thank you <3
insert the take my money meme

As per the many, many discussions in the Suggestions forum, I was really hoping this new SP sink would be including the wearables :(. I'm sad to see this is not the case...
Oh well, I get to save my SP instead!
This particular sink won't be dealing with wearables. The one we are working on right now is for those trying to complete collections because they are kind of impossible atm. There will be a thing for clothing in the future! :)
;-; someone gimme dat white hibiscus what do you mean no wearables /cries with
Glad to hear collections are being worked on so they can become attainable goals, though! :D
Yeah, the SP sink should include the wearables as well, because they're the thing that has the highest demand.
I feel like putting so many new features out might be more than Subeta can chew. I mean, there was zero development of whatever on the Minion Zoo, who is probably thrown to the wolves or somethingé
It's still being worked on :)! We've got some changes for it, it's just hard because we get a bunch of data from users testing it and a change isn't just a little bit of a coding change, it's changing stats of minions and abilities and things like that. It's a lot more intensive than a lot of other things we've done.
