Adopt R Us
Looking for a new pet to take home, but don't want to create one? Well the people down at Adopt R Us have finally updated their computer system and now let you search for a specific species or pet color!

I agree with some people above that the "search by color" should be for those with GA or been on the site longer. But that's my opinion too. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />
I cant say I approve about the " Search by color" option too much. New members could just snatch up any pet they want by the color and only have to refresh the page to earn them. Maybe make the " search by color" A GA feature, or as previously suggested a loyal user perk? I like the increased number of pets displayed at one time, however, it makes it easier to browse. (:

Soo what would be the point of making it for users that have been here for "2+ years"?
That's just ridiculous to me. If someone were "pet snatching", oh well. Someone obviously didn't want their pet enough to keep it, so let it go to someone who might do something nice with it.

Oh, just a suggestion, but it'd be nice and really helpful if the species were in alphabetical order. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Should have only made this option available to members that have been on subeta for 2+ years. :|
I don't really like this that much, because it encourages pet snatching.

LOL!
I was thinking "well, will be good if I could look for one specie or color. But they'll never put it on site... It will destroy the pound surf", two days ago.
And here we are! O_O
Btw, I think the pound surf, and the chance of find one rare color, or dream pet in the pound, now don't exist anymore.
But, if you're lucky, with no doubt, will be easy <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

meh... Now it'll be harder for people to get the cool colored pets. >.> I like it, but only if it was an option for just me. XD lol
I dont like the "browse species/colours" thing, it just make it easier to those pet-snatchers. :/
This option is very cool however I don't like browsing species or colors... I liked being able to browse the pets normally and look at the names.
Would you guys be able to bring that back while keeping this new feature?

I see bad things come from this and good things. It will help all the new people of 1 week or so but it also makes it hard for those who actually like to be surprised by randomly searching the pound with out the 'Auto' search.
Thank you though staff.
I'll just have to be more careful with my pets.

Problem with this is all the lovely names will be adopted up right away, and there will be badly named pets that just rot in the pound like on another petsite you all know well. :|
interesting <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
welp there goes all the cool pets haha, but this has the potential to be pretty neat. lets see how it goes. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Although I'm not a fan of color searching this is an awesome revamp of the Adoption Center, hopefully this will get pets some needed homes! I specially love the new way of searching names.
I LOVE this, but at the same time don't like how other people can find the rarer pets now. Lol
Just waiting for someone to take the crappy named pets..zap them into a nifty color and pound it. Curious to see who'd pick it up simply because its not common colored <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
Mmmm I see problems with this new feature lol.. Oh well.. Guess it won't affect me personally..
I never understood why people would go in the pound looking for a specific species or color when elixirs and potions are so incredibly cheap on this site =/
Interesting. I'm not really for the idea, but I only browse for names anyway. Should probably get rid of hydrus in the selection. I don't remember if there were any other colors that turned pets back to common upon abandonment, though.
Thank you sooo much! I wanted something like this to happen for quite a while! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
Eh, I was opposed to this idea when it was first discussed years ago, and I still am. (Note that all of the 'better' color pets were gone in a matter of... what? Five minutes?) But it doesn't really affect me much one way or the other, so whatever. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
@Porsche
then the person didnt care enough about the pet to pound it in the first place :/
If people care about the pet, then they should try and find a home for it on the forums.

Not that I'd need it, because I prefer creating my pets myself, but it might help other people finding what they're looking for, so it's a nice thing. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />
If I remember right new users have to be two months (or two weeks?) to be able to adopt a specially colored pet.
Harhar.
Now it's even easier for new users to find the bloodred/glacier/glade/whatever pets with great names that you work hard on only for them to adopt them and never come back.

Meh, I don't care about the color, but trying to find real word names... yeah, it won't help any <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
Congrats to those who look for pet colors and species!

Bumbuses can't be adopted out nor can Hydrus, so why are they search options? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
I love the search feature, is it going to be put in alphabetical order anytime soon?

OMG THANK YOU! I was hoping for something like this<img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
Saw this in the Suggestions forum the other day <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> Awesome!
Awesome! That rocks! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
This is interesting! Even though I don't use it, this will be beneficial to loads of users most likely!
