I would like to propose that the age advancement that nurturing and profile views do for pets reset with the Sylestia's day, rather than 24 hours after the nurturing/viewings occurred.
If the reset occurred at midnight server time it would still allow for the same number of nurturings as the current system, but it would allow players more convenience in nurturing their pets. Players can't always log on at the same time so have to wait a full 24 hours between nurturings can prevent you from being able to nurture each day.
I believe that being able to nurture a pet at any time of day, but only once per day, instead of only once every 24 hours, would make things a lot easier on players. ^^

AGREED. 200%. I have wished this so many times xD The lists for "Users Who Nurtured My Pets Today" and "Pets That Me And My Friends Own" are like endless and I spend so much time just getting to hatchlings

I do like this idea, but I wonder how much coding and effort would have to go into this to make it happen? From my understanding most things on the site occur because of time stamps. I'm thinking that getting all nurtured pets to reset at once would not only require a lot of work but also put a lot of stress on the servers all at once. However, if it's not big issue.. I totally support. :)

It depends. At this time, I'm not going to change anything.
However, when I revamp said features, I very well may for one reason or another.
The difference between something resetting at midnight or 24 hours is one uses a cron job (basically, a file that runs at a set time) or one that's done on demand.
Typically, cron jobs are more work than something on demand. But in this case, I don't think a cron job would be too intense at all.
But like I said, it'll depend on how things are revamped and how I decide to re-create it.
