Original suggestion below.

  • Direct and easier way to find the link to the CSC transaction page
  • Show the transaction page even if you don't have CSC on-hand. (Right now it won't show if you have 0 CSC)
  • Removal of "Total CSC spent on XXX amount of items" info. Irrelevant information.
  • Swap the +/- values. (Right now, a minus means CSC added.) Color coding would also be appreciated (green plus, red minus)
  • Breakdown by month, with links to each individual month. Also with a starting CSC tally at the beginning of each month.
  • Clearer communication on what the CSC is being spent on. (CW name, Cash Shop item name. If using cart, separate each item individually so it's listed in the log clearly.)
  • Better log for CW payments (Both money spent, and money brought in if you sell CW's.) (sidenote: the notifications we get for CW payments/money received isn't stored anywhere available for us to view. Something like a ping history for CW's would be excellent as well. IDK if this would coincide with this type of programming.) -Include commissions earned when a CW is bought from your shop EX: "CW Item Name" Sale Commission + # of csc -For those that are selling CWs in their shops, that every time you withdraw the CSC from the shop till it is included on the ledge. EX: "Shop Name" CSC Till Withdrawal + # of csc

I know there's a good portion of people who don't buy CSC often, but for those of us who do, it could probably come in handy.

I find I doubt if my CSC is correct more now that I am releasing CW's, so my suggestion is to basically to have a ledger somewhere in the cash shop. IDK how hard it would be to code, and it doesn't have to get too complicated, but I was thinking of maybe just having a start tally at the beginning of every month (or even every week if you want to really break it down), and then just green for addition, red for subtraction.

So a (super crude) example would be like:

And then carry on and on. So it's not just one super long list, after the month, it can get archived at the top of the page or whatever, and then you can click on each month to see what you purchased in the past.

Also, if it were possible to get super fancy, each purchase line could be a link that shows you exactly what you bought. It really doesn't need to be THAT fancy though, just basic enough so there's a way to keep track that we've been correctly awarded our payments/everything on-hand is accurate/how the hell that CSC disappears so fast haha.

Thoughts?

EDIT:

so this exists already apparently, but needs an overhaul, IMO. HERE is the existing log, which is found only under the items tab in the cash shop, as pointed out below. It also doesn't show if you do not have any CSC, which isn't helpful if you want to review something you purchased in the past. Other comments point out more issues as well.

That sort of exists already? [Url=https://subeta.net/cashshop.php?act=purchase_history]click here [/url] it takes into account trades and purchases. It could use an update of the plus or minus

you know, there already is a purchase history page that records csc spent, bought, and earned, but it's not linked anywhere (you just have to... know what the url is i guess... or google it) and it could definitely do with an update.

Where is that? I recalled it existed before, but couldn't find it anywhere? Maybe it could use it's own tab? Or be more obvious unless I am blind af? lol

Also, there's no sort of running tally of what my before/after CSC is. And it looks as though CW approval money is listed as a negative? Which sort of doesn't help. Also, there's no identifying information on it, for what was exactly approved.

Mostly, the before/after CSC running tally is to double check the amount was awarded correctly. I had so many things go through this week, and yeah, I could make a ticket and ask, or I could just look at the log, if it were updated properly.

like i said, it's literally not linked anywhere as far as i can tell. maybe it used to be, but got forgotten when the cash shop layout was updated? i agree it could use some improvements for clarity and scope.

(the negative values actually indicate CSC gained, while positive values indicate CSC spent.)

It used to be linked. I am trying to think where it was, but yeah as you can tell it clearly could use some updates. As Frenchi stated the negative is gained and numbers without the minus is csc spent. In my opinion I would link to it in the first post so others can see and suggestions to improve it can be easily seen and organized. A search by month would be nice too as you stated but I feel by week may be too much, especially depending on how many transactions you are involved with. A running total as you stated would also be nice. Subeta definitely has the logs for it.

Actually, if you go to the Items tab it is linked there.

"You have ## Cash Shop Credits to spend. An overview of your recent purchases is available here."

But that seems to be the only place where you can find it, so if you normally look at other pages a lot you may not notice it.

Also the top statement on the page is totally useless information.

"You have spent 26,490 CSC on 218 items in the Cash Shop. The sales data is shown below."

Those 218 "items" include a year's worth of Bathhouse credits given to me, as well as other times when I earned credits for whatever reason. So not all of it is really CSC that I've spent.

i agree with the page needing an overhaul or at least a touchup (and a more obvious link somewhere, maybe in the cash shop dropdown menu). if you really want to use it to check previous purchases, you have to buy everything individually -- if you use the cart function it just says "cash shop cart transaction" with no way to check what was bought.

additionally, it still calls name changes for pets and users "enchanted hypnosis wand" and "identity star shuriken," which is outdated since as far as i know, you can't buy either and if you have them, they're redeemed for csc instead of name changes?

An update and more direct link to the posted page would be really helpful.

You have spent 2,050 CSC on 424 items in the Cash Shop. ^ Not sure how this is worked out, but that definitely isn't right for me at all, I spent more than that last month alone xD

If anyone wants to make a big checklist for me of improvements to make to the CSC logs, please do! I'd love to try fixing it up as the page is definitely in need of some TLC. It's easier for me if the list of problems with it is all in one post.

The only thing is, I might not get to it for a while because of everything else I'm doing right now.
