I check every day. Seeing peoples dragons has always been a favorite activity of mine, even when I have nothing to show.

I'm just gonna vent some annoyances with the site that I've been bottling up. Things that ABSOLUTELY need changing due to how stupid they are. I've seen forum posts regarding most of these, which only further fuels my own annoyances since they have not been fixed, adjusted, or even considered. I started in 2017, back when signups were limited and the site was constantly going back and forth between public and private, but ended up forgetting about the site until around 2021 or 2022 (I actually forgot when I started up again lol), so coming back to a whole gaggle of dumb things and dealing with them has just kind of built up the steam in me.

- All that empty space on the sides of the site. Too many sites do this nowadays to accommodate mobile users, but force it on desktop users without expanding the page to fill the screen. The only good dead space is a video game franchise.
- Familiar bonding needs to be one click, not 50+.
- Familiar bonding should account for all unique familiars you own, both equipped and in the hoard. One button for a couple thousand gold a day.
- Bonding ranks. "Tolerant" is the most idiotic one; you're MY pet, random monster that I graciously decided to spare. I should be tolerating YOU, not the other way around. This ain't Pokemon.
- Nesting grounds incubation needs to be one click, not five.
- There should also be a random button for nesting ground pairs.
- Coliseum captcha. There is NOTHING good about it.
- Coliseum EXP gains need to be massively boosted.
- The fact that every dragon breed, save for the new and VERY much welcomed Undertide, is hexapodal. Where are my wyverns, longs, and other fun dragon types?
- The fact that I can't breed change a Fae into any others and keep the super tiny measurements. Seriously, why did they change this? I missed out on this glitch, but it should be a feature.
- The fact that accents and skins share the same slot. God I hate this more than anything on the site. If clothing can stack, then there's no excuse for accents and skins not to.
- The fact that accents are sometimes mislabeled as skins in the auctions.
- The fact that some skins, when previewed, hide aspects like wings or legs, but when equipped, it just turns them into blue outlines with a white fill. My favorite ridgeback skin, Hoarfrost Mauler, is utterly ruined by this.
- No seriously, there's a lot of great skins that I want to use, but can't because of the stupid outline nonsense. HIDE THE FEATURES THAT ARE HIDDEN BY THE SKIN. I can imagine all I want, but the site kills the imagination in this regard.
- The fact that lairs are so limiting in size, and that paying for extra slots is expensive.
- Veilspun. I don't like em. They remind me of something from two different series, one which makes me sad and the other which makes me mad.

This has been my Ted Talk, thanks for listening.

Lots of valid points. I'd also like to add that the games are unbalanced. Payouts and time used should be roughly equal. We're basically forced to play Glimmer and Gloom because it takes so little time compared to the others.

Bit of an old post but I don't check petopia often -- I find this point funny, solely because of how aggressively hostile flight rising's... everything is on mobile. Nothing about the site is built for mobile, and it doesn't like to play nicely at all on phone screens. I wish they would make it mobile-friendly, but I'm pretty sure the devs have said they have no plans to try for a mobile app version of the game, and anyone who tends to use phones to check the site (or have no other options) are SOL in that regard.

decided to go through and replace dragons with unnamed offspring. Going to be hard in some cases, but it just bothers me. I have been naming all of my sales lately
