This is probably the lamest suggestion ever but here I go. To improve upon the look of the writing and role playing aspect of Magistream I think it would be nice to be able to put in spaces before text and have it show up in the actual message.

---------- (In my editor this text here was indented five spaces, but it didn't show up that way in my actual message. Try it.)

I would like to make a suggestion if it isn’t already in progress.
Can we please have a shard transfer station? Making it into gold? so we can spend it further if we dont want to keep them? Lets say its a 5k higher than the sales price of a normal shard. that way its a fair amount for donaters. BUT its only avaliable after you have purchaesed a first time donation. Like if you spend them all but one shard, and don’t want to donate more you can turn it into gold instead. or I like the first option too.

I think this would bring donaters in.

I'm opposed to this, it would discourage selling to other users and donors selling to non-donors is one of the big reasons this game is designed so well. Not to mention the inflation it would cause.

Especially if selling the shards is worth more than their average price on the market.

But the inflation would be astronomical. Selling shard-value creatures to other users transfers gold between players, whereas selling shards generates new. The more money there is in a system, the higher prices tend to go. And there's enough complaints as it is about donors having an unfair advantage because they can sell donis for massive gold. At least with that they are selling the donis, and for many users buying them from donors is the only way they can get them. This kind of system would just make donors super rich, leaving non-donors further behind in gold access without even the benefit of them getting something for their lack of competitive coin.

Assuming it would bring in more donors is ignoring the number of players who literally can't donate. And if those who can would rather get gold, they know full well they can simply by getting the month's donis and putting them on the market.

A little feature idea that adds onto the Beastiary:
The ability to "tag" a species and list it as something you're actively looking for, maybe not showing in the stream/shops but during trades and stuff? Kind of like a wish list or something?
Just here for fun, kinda picky.
Big into theme parks, also big gay.

A potion to send a creature back one stage.

The ability to change the color theme of the site. Personally, I would prefer a darker color.

Seconding this.
And for my own suggestion:

Notes in a creature's page. I have a feeling this would be a modding nightmare, so what about it being made a donor perk in some way? Spending a shard allows a player to convert a single creature's page to noteable? I'd love to write stories for some creatures. Or, I've noticed a lot of players have critters that are specific to memoralizing beloved pets and such that this would be useful for too.

Small suggestion: I just noticed, Donation creatures get a Release date line posted on it's bestiary entry. Yet all other stream, shop, breeding or event creature's don't have a release date included.

I know it's silly but I'd like the release dates included because when a player take a hiatus and returns, they could see not only the new creatures on the bestiary but the date, month and year of those creatures they missed. Also for the sake of continuity. :nerd:
