Couple common things like no smail outbox or the shop search being a dog and popping in whatever it wants when you're trying to search.

But one thing that bugs me a little (okay, a lot) is all the new content with lack of updates on older things, art wise. We're getting a ton of new items, but I would personally prefer to see some older things like pets and art around the site (lot of shop owners/quest givers), and avatar and regular items.

:<

It's like getting brand new stuff! Because it's pretty to look at and in the case avatar items it really is like getting a whole new item to play with!

One of my little peeves is how in some parts of the site (ie. Ice Fields or Krypt) you have to go through one of those "Oh no! You're lost/went the wrong way/Blake Steele is not impressed/whatever" pages and click through to get to the "add an alert" page. Why have the extra step? Why not just combine them into one page?

I know it's silly since it's just one additional click, but it just irks me.

Shop//Trades//Style File//

Some of these have been stated before, but I also feel like a few of these have been complained about so much over the years that they'll never be remedied (I'm looking at you #2).

#1- Theres no way to organize Trading Cards, plushies, or beanbags - why cant you make them dragable like stickers in our album are?
#2- TRIVIAS. Since debilee stopped doing them, they only happen monthly, if even. If its too much work to update them often then why not open up a non-paid minimod-type position to do trivias daily/weekly/whatever.
#3- The image size rule doesnt make sense - I've always understood the reason for the rule to be so that the forums werent disgustingly streteched, so why are images inside spoilers not allowed? I'd never even thought about it till I saw someone a couple pages back get edited for putting an oversized image in a spoiler, but now that I saw that it doesnt make sense to me unless I'm misinterpreting the reason for the rule?
#4- Pet perks in the battle system have been sitting unfinished for a while now. Also unless you go to the ryan's link the battle chat forum I dont think theres any other way to get there?
#5- 2Player Battling was sitting in beta for a long time before the server died. It's not staff's fault for the server dying, but I dont understand why something like that that was in beta for SO LONG and seemingly untouched wasn't pushed live or at least . . . acknowledged before the server died.
#6- We've been about to have a reading drive for like. . . the past 18 months.
#7- Weapons Warehouse + Defend and Conquer have been neglected like nobodies business, and other suggestions (like unretiring old r99s that were retired in the first place for no real reason) havn't been implemented, or really acknowledged that I've seen.
#8- The fragmentizer has been ignored, and this complaint comes up and a few items will be put in and then it gets ignored again.
#9- The way that staff adds items to shops in clumps is aggravating, instead of having 50 new items in one shop in a month and then none for the next two years why not space new items out over all the shops equally? By the time staff finishes adding waves of new items to all the shops that need them, the shops they started with are going to have become neglected again.
#10- Can we please please retire some things in clothing rack/accessory bin? Although I saw a post about this like a week or two ago and keith said they'd look into it, so maybe staff is busy compiling a list this very moment!
#11- Maybe this is my imagination, but since the super autopricer has been released, the horrible deflation of restockable items has gotten even worse than it was before.

Also because this post has gotten rather long, whiny, and angsty (I'm sorry!) I'll add a few small-ish things I'm really happy about recently
#1- I LOVE the shop layout change, the shops load so much faster for me. Also I love the new way of organizing items, even though people complain about it.
#2- The site has generally run faster since all the server changing hooplah
#3- I'm glad that BHH has gotten some love over the past few months.
#4- I liked the greenhouse quest during Vesnali, I hope things along that line are done with future holidays - but maybe a bit more complex?
#5- Once the problems with major drills got worked out, I like the quests.

random pet peeve, but it has always bothered me how the sidebar is gone on the battle quest page.

and yes, not having a smail outbox has always bothered me a little! although having the icons has definitely been an improvement.

also not really digging the new news layout.

I would just like to say, I really appreciate that a thread like this exists, and that you guys are willing to hear us all nitpick at these things! ♥

I agree with the Major Drills quests.
I have him stuck under my bookmarks right now, but I use the quest widget a lot when I'm questing and it annoys me slightly to not have him in that little box.

I don't like how cluttered the Site Preferences page is. There are just too many links up the top, and things don't seem to be organised in a nice way.

For instance the:
Show Full Avatars in Forums
Show Full Forums
Birthday Icon

Options are under "Options", where they might be better suited to the Forums tab.

and, the:
Password
Email
PIN

tabs could all be moved into one page.

Same with:

-- On the "account search" page, you can only search specific items. Say for example I want to find all the Spring Duck Plushies that I already own. I can only search for each specific color one at a time. It would be nice to see all the colors on one page. Another example would be searching for all the items from a Subeautique set. Those all have one word in the title in common, but you can only search one at a time. I hope I'm making myself clear enough.

-- Not sure if this is just my browser, but the notepad widget doesn't have a scrollbar when editing. I have to copy/paste the content into editpad or something similar, change it, then copy/paste it back into the notepad widget.

-- Lack of organized news. Having to look for news announcements or site updates in about a million different places is highly annoying. There's the news page, announcements forum, Keith live thingys, facebook, and twitter. There are also occasional updates within threads that you will never ever see anywhere else besides in that thread. I understand it forces people to be more interactive with the Subeta site itself and with outside sites, but I really don't like having to hunt for updates.

There were more that I thought of as I was reading but I forgot now.

- That the sesonal shops don't have places on the map.
- Drills quests aren't included in the Quests sidebar widget
- The -? seconds with the wizard quests
- Images of hair styles in the salon instead of drop down links.
- A hair salon color saver

I didn't read every post, but even if these have been mentioned already I'll say them again anyway:

- bookmarks bar disappears on certain pages. the most annoying for me would be after you get a piece of shinwa's bracelet for her quest.

- ..that is annoying because there is no link back to shinwa on that page. (I have her bookmarked to hurry on back) and since the bookmarks bar disappears and there's no link back to her, it just makes it take a little longer.

- that you can't code your shops with HTML/CSS whatever ON THE EDIT SHOP PAGE. I mean, you could, once, but once you've put it in the first time it will replace the brackets with "<" and ">" effectively breaking your coding. Idk if this means we're supposed to only use scode, because that would be incredibly limiting. the only way around it right now is to code it on notepad and just copy paste it everytime you want to change something.

- it also bothers me that Esther doesn't have a permanent place on the site anywhere.

- here's one that REALLY bothers me... when you're buying an item from the main shops, you have to wait 5 secs between purchases. that's fine. but what annoys me is that it lets you attempt to purchase the item before 5 secs has passed... and then you have to go back and type it all in again etc. I wish that the purchase button was somehow greyed out or something until 5 secs has passed, because I try to count to 5 but often I am too fast and it just drives me crazy!

- the suggestion thing on shop search bothers me too. I'm not sure the circumstances of it exactly, but sometimes when copying and pasting something it inputs the suggestion at the end or in the middle of what I was pasting (on it's own)... and it obviously messes me up during questing. Idk if it's just my browser.. but I've used at least 3 different ones and it happens on every one. can suggestions please just not automatically insert themselves? can they please just sit in the freaking drop down menu unless I click on them? :I

- when I remove something from my shop, say on page 3, it puts me back to page one afterwards. I would like it if it could somehow stay on page 3... (or whatever page it is, you know)

well that's all I've got for now. lol. =_=

I absolutely despise the way we have to move TC items around. If you have 100+ items it can get really awkward. I like to have things organized so it looks pretty, like I might want to make a rainbow of colours that spans 8 columns and 60 rows. I can get it all fixed and then find one item out of place it moving it forced me to have to redo the entire page. Why not just have it where we can click and swap two different items? Pretty please?

If we could re-organize our WL categories I would be thrilled. They're alphabetical when I go to add a new category, but they appear in whatever order in which I added them when I'm trying to categorize items. With as many specific categories as I have, it's difficult to find the right one when it's NOT in alphabetical order! Hoping this can happen one day *lol*

oh I just remembered something silly but it still annoys me:

when you're wearing say, 3 layers in a section that you actually only have 2 in, it tells you so when you first put on the item. but then, me being dumb, I forget and just click to wear the avatar later anyway (always after doing a considerable amount of work on it... =_=) and while the "saved!" message doesn't appear, sometimes I'm in a hurry and don't notice. so I end up wasting a lot of time because of ONE LITTLE ITEM I forgot to take off...
I know this all sounds like I should be more careful, BUT STILL.
I mean, when you try to wear an outfit with an item you don't own, it gives you a message saying you can't but it also gives you the option of wearing it without that item. it doesn't do that when you have on too many layers. no, it doesn't say ANYTHING. at the very least could it say something like "HEY STUPID YOU CAN'T WEAR THIS BECAUSE YOU HAVE ON TOO MANY FACE LAYERS TRY AGAIN!!" yeah, maybe not that mean but you get it.
it would be even better if it behaved like when you are wearing an item you don't own. like, it says you can wear it without the offending extra layer. I suppose it should remove the topmost like it does when your layers run out normally, right?

I don't think this has been mentioned yet. When you're moving items from your vault the item destination gives you a list of all your shops and your inventory where you can move your items. I'd really like it if the item destination in your shops had the same options. Right now you can only move items to your vault and your inventory from a shop. I'd like to be able to have the option to move items between different shops as well.

This has probably already been mentioned, but my biggest 'little' error is the quest timing. I guess its a server error? But its annoying when you only get a 5pt Wizard Token on a quest you actually deserved a 15pt Wizard Token on.

Aha thought of a few more:

Lack of good mid-range weapons for middle-level pets (basically we either have crap or have to shell out 10mil+ for a half way decent weapon). I don't understand why battling has to be SUPER SPECIAL when EVERY other aspect of the site has things available AND useful for their function (i.e. You don't have to buy all cash shop wearables or spend 30 mil on one wearable to have a decent HA). Battling in general seems to be you either are at the bottom of the barrel . . . or the top. :-/ If you're in the middle you're perpetually spinning your proverbial wheels in the mud unless you spend 100 mil for a decent weapon.

Certain items over vending and deflating like crazy (see: everything that vends at Dragons Hoard aside from Holiday items) and other (restockable in main shops) items not vending at all (Food.)

The blue building is seriously lame as it is. It really needs SOMETHING to make it interesting :-/

As much as I love this site... there are little things that bother me, haha. Some of these have been said, but I'll repeat to show that more than one person is annoyed or something. XD

1.) Autumn layout, which is otherwise my favorite, doesn't have the line under 'dashboard' that the other layouts do and the left border around where it says 'subeta' looks... odd. It also doesn't have the rounded border around the banner image. Also, the drop down colors are kind of strange, and I can't read my pet names without highlighting because of the white text on the dropdown menu for them.
2.) Slash/apostrophe thing.
3.) Can't order pet friends or edit text once you've made it.
4.) pets being sorted by ID when you go to use an item on one
5.) Books read to pets counting as part of account worth makes no sense.
6.) alerts about Lakeview Resort show up when I don't want them.
7.) Suggestions in Shop Search have messed me up more than they've helped by inserting themselves when I do not need them.
8.) Battling is made very hard by how expensive good weapons are.

Many of my little annoyances have already been posted but one I haven't seen posted is with the Shop Search.

Is there any way to stop the shop search from loading the shop when you click to buy an item? I just want to buy the item, usually for a quest, not wait on the shop to connect or load so I can go back to shop search to continue my quests.

-not being able to do a Search this Shop/Gallery in a users shop/gallery for the entire shop/gallery if it contains categories.
Lets say I'm on the main section and search for earth staff, the search will only look at whats in the main category and ignore the rest of the shop. I'd love for it to by pass that and search in every category that's there.
Hope that makes sense.

The first one, like so much. I know for sbq there isn't much you could do other than add a new line every week or something, which obv can't happen but still. I really have no idea how to fix it other then making the new lines that do come out more rare?
