I love Marapets like everyone else, but oh the things that don't make sense on this site. Granted, I'm sure some of these things are actually there and I'm just oblivious to them <3. Don't read further if you don't want to read a rant. Also, I don't need to hear people complaining, "If you don't like it go somewhere else or fix it yourself" etc. Like I said, I love Marapets. These are just ideas that would (in my opinion) improve the site.

?? If I get a CE request, there should be a button that can take me right to the Currency Exchange page from that alert page. Likewise, if I get a trade offer, there should be a button on that alert that takes me straight to said trade.

?? If I'm in a club, I'm pretty sure I don't need to go to the home page to look at other clubs. In a club = redirect to club's page, not home page.

?? I accidentally click on mails that I don't want to delete all the time. It's kind of a hassle to have to un-click them all and then re-click all the ones I want to delete.

?? Why isn't there an alert given when I've bid on an auction and there's 5 minutes left or 1 minute left in that auction? It'd be useful for those who forget that they've bid on something.

?? If I type in "Simerian Slate 1" in the Search Engine, I don't want "Simerian Slate 10" to pop up. I mean come on, really D:? (Applies for other objects too, obviously). I understand that "search items identical to my phrase" is there, but WHY ISN'T THAT THE MAIN OPTION AT LEAST? If I even put a space after it while using the "search items containing to my phrase", it won't matter because it'll say that the object doesn't exist /facepalmsohard.

?? Also, when I type in something in the Satellite search, it only comes up with that one thing. For example, when typing in "Twinkle". It only comes up with Twinkle. It doesn't come up with Twinkle # 1-20. This applies to other items as well, but the opposite also happens. If I'm looking for the pet named Alexa, I have to search through a list of names when the name I typed should probably be the first one on the list. However, this doesn't happen for the name Alex, and I have no idea why.

?? Why are there pets with the same name? (Fay, Ivy, Artemis, Bob, etc.) Furthermore, why aren't users that haven't been on in forever deleted and their pets' names renewed? (When I say renewed, I mean able to be reused). There are many common-named pets with no real owner. They're floating around in cyberspace while people that actually want that name are left hanging.

?? The ability to search for one kind of marapet without including the costume would be nice. Usually, I could care less about the costume if I'm searching for a pet species in pet trades. Also, make it so that more than 15 pet trades can be viewed at once ;D.

?? When I portal a pet and its species and costume changes, it'll be, "Eremia has turned into a blackSpeiro!" instead of "a Black Speiro" this isn't really all that important, just a tad annoying.

?? Why does the bank close every other hour? I understand the daytime vs. nighttime idea, but if that's the case, why doesn't that idea apply to the Grave Robber? Why doesn't he fall asleep every other hour during the "nighttime" phase?

?? Why is the Slate Pyramid not on the Countdown? (I'm sure other things aren't in the countdown either, but I only care about the Slate Pyramid xD).

?? RC needs its own team of mods.

?? 100 games as a requirement on the checklist is insane. The games are very old, un-updated, and some of them are pretty ghetto, not to mention they limit the amount of MP you can earn, regardless of your score. 100 games should be interchangable with something like 100 battles, or 100 posts, or make 100k. Let's be honest, no one on Marapets comes for the games.

?? More shops need to be restocked more often. I remember there used to be LOTS of costumes in the costumes shop when I started (2006). What's the benefit for Ian for everything being pricey as hell? I wouldn't be able to afford ANYTHING on this site if I didn't have artistic ability.

?? Furthermore, Ian took away the ability to gain AU credit from the Loyalty Prizes, but I think there should be MORE of an opportunity to get AU credit because one of the few and popular ways to make money on this site is to buy AUs and sell them for ridiculously high prices.

?? Bring back the "You get MP for posting" idea.

?? Hire more people, Ian. I've seen your Facebook statuses where you've gone to Africa, Australia, Greece, freakin' everywhere. If you don't want to do anything with Marapets, then at least hire some people to make the site better.

??

^ Fix this.

@ Dan - I've been playing this game since 2006 xD. I know that Ian has done the "Pet deletion before", but it should be done again/more often.

cause you can only play it every 3 hours, its a game.

I know this. I'm just giving my opinion on what would make more sense.

I hardly go to RC, and I never said that the people there are mean. I just hate that it's one big clique and it's turned into.. Well, something I hate, frankly.

slate pyramid isnt on the page cause ian hasnt updated it yet

No, really xD? A lot of this rant has to do with updates/upgrades to the site. These ideas aren't impossible to accomplish.

I'm not upset that the bank closes every other hour, and I know that the ATM is always open. I just wish the bank would always be open, because honestly, what's the benefit of having it close down every other hour?

Why isn't there an alert given when I've bid on an auction and there's 5 minutes left or 1 minute left in that auction?

server times. alerts are already delayed a few seconds (about 10 seconds-1 minute) and if it sent out alerts for every auction they would take 5-6 minutes to get there. it just wouldnt work.

Why does the bank close every other hour?

ian also said, for this, that it annoyed him about the bank being closed all the time whe it was every 8 hours or w/e.
you want to use the bank and its closed, go to the atm.

why aren't users that haven't been on in forever deleted and their pets' names renewed?

ian did this before, it wont be done again for some time, if ever.

why doesn't that idea apply to the Grave Robber? Why doesn't he fall asleep every other hour during the "nighttime" phase?

RC needs its own team of mods.

RC has dolphii, lin, sha, and x
