hence, my suggestion for releasing re-colors of retired donis.

OH NO! I don't want MagiStream to die! It's my favorite site!

I would also donate if I could but I don't work and my mom says "I'm not paying just for you to have virtual pets" and blah blah. That and she doesn't exactly know how to use Paypal... THIS TOTALLY SUCKS.

I also have no friends to speak of. So I can't really spread MagiStream around to get more members. I also can't think of any suggestions...

MAGISTREAM, WHAT SHOULD I DO TO HELP?

Considering the current situation and the fact that Tristan is auctioning off any pet you could want in a shard auction, he basically just rereleased a possible 10 old donation pets for the winners of that auction. Now's the time to consider that anything can be done, since the rulings are pretty much just what Tristan says goes, being that he's the owner, and rereleasing the old pets would increase donations.

I agree with this.
The only other option is to not run Magistream any more if he doesn't get enough money.
Using Shards in Quests is still something I don't think is needed and good.
There are more and other ways to get the money.
And adding adds is one that really should be considered.
I liked that Magistream didn't have adds but if I had to decide between Magistream with adds and no Magistream I would take the adds option.
Rereleasing older Donis would bring the prizes a bit down but this will be good for the MS economy and the rising inflation here.
Adding something like unfreezing potions for hatchlings and the option to prevent clicks in a single special Tab for Shards may be good too (and wanted by the way).

Wow. This was unexpected. Well, I think I'll have to donate again sooner than I wanted to... I hope I can u.u

Speaking of which, I have a visa gift card laying somewhere...

^This. I would surely pay for a Frost Unicorn, an old Dragon and perhaps a Raiju... and a Cascara Butterfly.

Well, considering that the auction is over 100 shards, now--don't get your hopes up about re-releasing old donis. The doni breeding potion, now--that has possibilities!

Agreed - there are several I'd buy, even if they cost 10 shards apiece due to bringing them out of retirement (which, frankly, I think is fair considering the dire straits the site is currently in plus the fact that we'd be breaking the "no re-releasing rule").

All that means is that people REALLY want a chance at older pets, or maybe they're after giftborns. I myself would ask for old donis if I were a winner, but maybe I'm the exception. I do agree that the doni breeding potion needs to show up though, it'd help a lot.
