I would like what I call a "Strict mode", which reduce what's appearing on the page,
it would permit to reduce lag greatly, as less would be loaded.

Place it could be good to be used is mostly those with big pages, big images(map) or tons of image.
I tried to connect and do my things on my 3DS sooner while I had my breaks at work and found it
sad most of the things I wanted to do... was impossible because of either being too long to load
either it didn't load because the page was too big(or too much data to load like Profiency page).

I imagined then how it must be if your computer or the internet connection is slow, it could
permit more people to enjoy the site somewhat fully, without having to wait 2 minutes or
more for one page to load.
If it's not possible, well I undertsand, just giving a suggestion~ <3

@Sheechwan

That is something we always try to keep in mind. Unfortunately, we do aim our pages at people using PCs instead of less powerful things like a phone or DS. I definitely will admit that our site is much bulkier than most other game sites out there. We have many layers for the pets and avatars and nice big images (like the background, map). We also have a very complex Proficiency system that involves I think 180 different abilities. To counter this, we're using Cloudflare which caches all images and scripts.

So when you visit a page once and load it, that page will load near instantly as long as the cache remains. So when you visit the Proficiency Page, it will take a little bit of time (possibly 10+ seconds) to load the first time. But after that, it should load instantly for anyone until their cache is cleared.

Someday, if we're able to, we might provide a 'mobile' version of the site that is used when people are accessing the site from non computers. But atm, that's out of our realm :\

I understand, it's just a bit troublesome when I wanted to load the Profiency page, but
because of it "size" I couldn't access it, at least I have a computer at home, but where I would see
it the most useful is at the Map place, I wanted to send my Sylesties in Mission again so they would
be away while I was working, but I was barely able to load the first Map and when tried to load
Viridian Meadow, it never loaded, so was kind of sad of that part.

But like I said(I think), it's not "needed", it'll be nice if it were to exist, but I understand you must
also have already tons of things to "repair", update or continue, making sometime new ideas
hard to fit in there.

Anwyays, other than the, site is quite enjoyable, at least I'm able to pick them from mission and
use level up points, as well as opening the Bag I get in rewards, it's maybe long, but possible~ ^-^
Please continue the good work, I think this whole thing will become really popular, even in Beta
it's great, it can only get greater!~ <3

Thank you for the kind words

We chose to use maximum quality for all of our 'art' images because we wanted everything to look as nice as possible. But it definitely wouldn't be a bad idea to allow players to load low res images for faster load speeds. We will look into this for the future.

Low res images could be an alternative indeed and the art is indeed beautiful,
that's what made me like this place so fast~ XD

I feel like I could hugs those little Sylesties all days!~ <3

Anyways, it's okay if it's not soon, but it's just an idea, reason why this felt into "Suggestion"~ XP

I think what I would really love is to be able to click my own Eggling/Hatchling or be able
to post them elsewhere at least, I know a place where I could get quite a few clicks if I
advertise them enough and would maybe convince some people to join when they'll see
such lovely creatures~ <3

I hope to be able to spend a bit more time on this site and see it grow, I can't expect every
of my ideas come to life, but it doesn't kill to suggest them~ XP

Just continue to do your best, I think most of the people here are impatient(yet patient)
and will love to "grow" along with this wonderful game!~ ^w^

@Sheechwan

We are actually planning on making it so that you can go to a Sylesti's profile and nurture them there if you want to nurture a specific pet. We are also are planning on something like you can have your pets as little 'clickables' that you can put in your forum signature's or post somewhere, and anyone that signs up via going to your egg will be your referral.

Lots to do with the website basically! Just trying to get through the list as fast as we can with getting new things into the game and fixing bugs. Today was a pretty bad day for us because we had a horrible air travel trip due to the blizzard in the midwest in the US. And we haven't even reached our destination yet lol...so we're both extremely exhausted and haven't got much done today in terms of code. Hopefully things will get out faster after the holidays...and we do have a really awesome holiday event planned that I think you guys will love.

But thanks for the suggestions, we are having as much fun as you guys are with watching the site grow! We hope everyone sticks around forever to 'grow up' together as a community and game. Keep the suggestions coming, we appreciate all the feedback we get.
