I know this as been suggested before,
but there should be a way to see tiny pics of your hatchery pets,
and you can check off little boxes under their name, and set a price for all of them.
Thanks!!
:D
-If you choose to comment, I would prefer only "this won't work because..." from an admin.-

I think this would be cool lol.
Since it goes along with mass releasing/mass moving/etc.

I would like something like this, but personally I'd like it in the form of a spreadsheet, where you can go down the list and set prices for everything at once, or set them NFS (Not for sale). At least for the hatchery this would be great, but if we could get one for each stable (with maybe a space to set breeding prices?) too, even better, lol.

Going through and individually opening each pet's page to price is a pain in the patootie, and takes way too long. By the time I'm through one tab, I'm ready to just release them all and be done with it.

TL DR: No, please! If you don't want to price them all out then don't breed them all.



I'm not an admin.. but I'm still going to tell you why I don't like this and why I don't think it will work (it's part of the reason these forums exist, after all!)

In my opinion this is treading to close to the game playing itself for you.. although it would make players lives easier.. so would automated zone exploring, breeding and nuturing... but then what'd be the point? This is just going to make it easier for people to breed hundreds of pets and flood the markets with them.. thus lowering the value and rarity of said pets. This is the same reason I don't like the mass-release idea that has been mentioned many times. You'd still have to look up competitive prices for the pets.. and people will probably not do that when they can just set them all up for 1 gold (or 100, 500.. whatever) in one swoop.

Do I like having to release/price a bunch of pets individually? Nope, I really don't.. but if I don't want to do it then I shouldn't be mass-breeding. If everyone could mass price and release as they see fit there would be nothing stopping people from mass breeding, releasing and selling in just minutes.. thus making even more pets on site.

Another reason this would be an issue is the coding aspect.. doing anything in mass quantities would bog down the server, thus creating lag and making everyone's gaming experience crappy. The code would still have to price each pet individually so forcing it to price many at once would led to catastrophe.

I'll leave along the argument about this making things too easy to mass breed... that may or may not be a valid point, but I would stil lprefer a spread sheet where I can keep track of what I have priced all my pets for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is consistency. I tend to forget what I priced something before, so a spread sheet would just make it easier to keep track of things, as well as price and re-price them.

As to how difficult this would be... i'm not a coder, and i have no idea how Krin has coded things on here, but I must point out that almost ALL MMOs have something like this in their shops. This kind of thing can't be that difficult to achieve when so many other sites do it routinely. Most of the time, you go into your shop and see a lit of items on one side and a box for the prices next to each item. You go through and add/change the prices as needed. Hit the button to set your prices and your done. That's all I'm asking for here, it really shouldn't be that hard.
