The PETSP (People for the ethical treatment of Subeta Pets) have lobbied for days that various area's of the site require that your pets be fed and happy. Remember that the Lakeview Resort is always open and ready to take pets who's owners can't handle the task of feeding/playing with them. :)

It's too tiring to put all your pets in the lakeside resort if you have 10, because you have to do the same thing 10 times. There should be an all pets option.

Point taken. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /><br />
<br />
And for the sake of on-topic substance... I'm fine with this rule. Caring for PETS on a PETsite should be a no-brainer. Not like it's a huge wad of cash out of your pocket to visit Ikumoradeekanox every day or save up those Oofa Fruits and make sure your active pet is fed. As for happiness, heck, I've constantly got half a dozen worthless toys in my inventory that I can never seem to get rid of; I'm glad they'll finally have a use now.
I was just wonder how long it would take to get in.. I can see this becoming a BIG problem once I start working again... I am not going to have time to deal with this.. and for some reason dressing my HA at times, when I am stressed has a real soothing effect on me.. to not be able to come in and dress right away.. stinkos.. sigh<br />
Guess I am outta here for a few hours..
I put all my pets in the resort, spent 30 minutes playing games and wasted a ton of money on toys, and I still can't acccess my wardrobe. Seriously, abandoning them all would be easier than this, all i want to do is remove shoes.
Okay, my understanding is it just needs to be the active pet.. that would be okay and maybe fun.. I wouldnt mind buying food and toys for her.. I hope it just stays with one pet... If not, I would hate to say it but I would have to pet dump.. I really really do choice to play here for the HA thats the draw for me.. and the ONLY reason I go GOLD is for the 3 items a layer option.. please remember that some of us really are in love with the HAs more.. and thats a okay thing too.. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
Since the resort is an option, this doesn't really bother me. Heck, this is a PET site after all! And if people don't like the pet aspect that much, then just one pet hardly takes any time or sP to look after. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I have to say the primary reason I don't feed my pets as often as I should is because it's tedious. They drop even one level off bloated, you have to feed them like four things to bring them back up. Happiness is even worse; sometimes it doesn't seem to budge at all. And it's what, 3-4 screens to feed? Now multiply by 5, 10, 15 pets... <br />
<br />
I know the recode uses a drag and drop interface. Could we drag-and-drop food/toys to our pets? I'd definitely keep them fed if it were that simple.
Will our pets be taken away from us? What is going on here?
I don't mind this new addition, I love to see that my pets are happy and full. I do love the Idea of a Play Area for our pets that would be amazing. We have a park already now if our pets could get something out of visiting there. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> The only thing I would love to see change at the at the Resort would be the checking in procedure (sp). Don't need the time extended just not so many steps to check in each pet. Not sure how I feel about the quickstock suggestion though. I don't mind checking them in one at a time. Since I adore my little Pixels, they are way better pets then my RL pet.. LOL they don't tear the trash up.
angelembryo..5 mins was counting the lag time <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /><br />
<br />
and to the girl asking "what if we want to spend our sp on other things?" Then don't have 10 pets. Have none, or one. <br />
<br />
Hahaha, that's all good news to me. I usually try to keep my pets in the lodge anyway. Less expensive than buying all that food, plus toys. Training Intoxicate gets expensive enough as it is. =P
A good idea in my opinion. (I often forget to check if my pets are happy or hungry since I rarely go to the status page.) My one complaint is that the resort only goes up to 14 days.<br />
<br />
As a side note, is there any way to tell if another user's pets are hungry or depressed?
My pets want to be able to be place in a certain order on my page, when that happens they will be more than happy
For those of us that have bad memories... cough me cough... Is there a way to tell which of our pets are in the Lodge - in case we accidentally skip one in the dropdown menu?
Oh yay, now I'll definately be getting my use out of my Infinite Berry, any chance we can get like.. an Infinite Ball or something too?
. . . i just went and played around with my wardrobe to see this so called message appear telling me I had to pay attention to my needy pets... and I didn't get one. It let me do the normal wardrobe thing, I most of my pets are famished and whatnot...<br />
<br />
odd
I was thinking about this a few days ago... the difference between this place and Neopets it's that in Neo, pets are a little more important. (that, and the fact that Neopets sucks... XD).<br />
In here, almost all the people, it's worried about collecting clothes and stuff. <br />
Don't get me wrong: I like to collect stuff too, but I also feed, play, train and read to my pets, because I don't want to have a pet that it's dying, even if that pet it's just a buch of pixels.<br />
<br />
I really like the Resort over the Neolodge because it keeps the pet happy too. (may be because toys in Neo doesn't disappear after playing...).<br />
<br />
I like the idea of having happy and well feed pets, it helps to the Subeta economy, and helps to teach responsability to the little ones.<br />
<br />
But I would like too an option for a month in the Resort. =^__^=UUU<br />
<br />
Kiss! :3
"Your pet Reily would really prefer you feed and play with it, before you do this <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />"<br />
<br />
Awe... The funny (or not) thing about that is, Reily is actually named after my son. Could you imagine if I did that to HIM?! Oh my...<br />
<br />
I actually agree with everyone saying that this was a PETsite first, and is now reminding us that we do, in fact, have pets to care for. As long as they don't begin to eat their minions(again), or run away... <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /><br />
Twi
huh... I haven't used the lodge in quite some time. I'm thinking I better plop them all in there before those "changes" are put through. change usually means more expensive. XD
User not found:
You know, I actually think this is an excellent idea. It brings the focus back to the pets, and also forces users to care for them. It causes me no end of frustration to see hungry or depressed pets, even if they are merely pixels.<br />
<br />
To those who say it takes too much time to put them in the resort, or think it's too much work to buy some food or a toy... Get off the computer, get some exercise, or even play with a real pet.<br />
<br />
Ok, done ranting, carry on.
Sounds like a good Idea to me. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
"Oh and those whining about not knowing when their pets are starving, It takes 5 minutes to click on the pet link and look at their status."<br />
<br />
I hope that was a typo and you meant something more like 5 nanoseconds. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

I like this change. A lot. So there.
It's so funny how people are actually whining about this. All of these users complain that they actually have to spend SP on food, toys, or lodging, and then they forget the hoardes of crap in their galleries and vaults that just SITS there. <br /> If you dont want to feed them, don't feed them. But you're going to get punished. Simple as that.

People are acting like their undies are in a wad. DX <br />

I can't say that this new change bothers/makes me happy. It doesn't affect me. At all. I've always fed/played with my pets because, as someone said before, it kind of bothers me to see "famished" or "dying of extreme boredom because my owner is a bish who lives in her wardrobe". I feel guilty. xD<br />
<br />
I didn't even know there was a resort til now. o_o WOO.

I don't like this.. I never feed my pets unless I have unwanted items, and now I do. It gets on my nerves.

It's a tad inconvenient because I know I won't remember until I get blocked out of my wardrobe. Right when this was put in place I had reset my clothing. I was locked out of my wardrobe lacking clothes. xD</blockquote><br />
<br />
Oh my gosh, i can just imagine it now....My wardrobe is under lock and key (and alot of chains) by 8 of my pets all emaciated and depressed and I'm only clad in my bra and panties!!! (if i'm so lucky to even wear that!) XD
It's kind of funny how people are overreacting to this. Just think of it as another task, such as doing wizard quests. So what if it's forced, don't have a friggen cow over it :c (and also, sometimes pets become spontaniously full, so you won't always have to feed them all...or, atleast to my observation)
Seriously, Subeta started as a petsite. And they have finally enforced that you take care of them, and you whine? Seriously. It is time that the pets became more than just trophies. I have the full 15, so it will take me as many, if not more clicks to put them in the resort, but I do it, and did it before this requirement. If you don't want to take care of them, get rid of them pure and simple.
Awesome. Now I don't feel dumb for "wasting" my sP keeping my pets happy and fed all the time.

Every change on Subeta causes drama. XD If they'd gotten rid of every new change that caused drama, I don't think Subeta would've developed much at all.

This is causing so much unneeded drama. Just get rid of it already.

Oh goodness >.< good thing I only go on here for roleplay.
The only restriction that I know about so far is the wardrobe. What else?
I don't see what the big deal is. The L. Resort is so easy to use. XD
It's really not hard... 3 clicks, base price for 2 weeks? 1,400...Pocket change! That's dirt cheep.
User not found:
To those that are talking about the price and not wanting to spend the sP on food/toys.... it is only 1400sp per pet to put them in the resort for 2 weeks. And for those saying they will forget every 2 weeks, you actually get a notice saying when your pet is out - so then you just put them right back in and voila ~ another two weeks where you can go on doing what you do. ;D
The only time I put my pets in my Lodge is when I know I'm not going to be around to feed 'em... ie, when I'm on vacation. They seem to like to go on a vacation every now and then, so I doubt that whatever happens at the Lodge is gonna be that bad for me at least.<br />
<br />
And yea, most of you guys should quit complaining about this "pets must be happy/fed to do certain stuff" rule. Heck, it could be like on Neo where they also have diseases and stuff... My poor pets there had to suffer because the treatments were so expensive, and I didn't have the money to get the medicines for 'em.<br />
<br />
Still, this is a very excellent idea.
"You may feed your real life pets, but chances are their quality of life isn't wonderful if all you do is feed them and then walk over to the computer." So, we should spend those five minutes it takes to shove all the pets in the resort neglecting out pets to try and feed our pixelated pets to prove that we can take care of pets? That makes little sense. This is making you spend more time doing one thing to care for things and take away time from our own. Why should everyone else have to comply to this new rule for the little kids who want to get a pet this way? Get them a tamagotchi if they want to prove they can care for a pixel thing, I like my subeta as a way to contact friends once I'm done with caring for my real pets who actually will die if you don't feed them. Just because I don't click a few extra buttons on subeta doesn't mean I don't care for my fish and dog. I nearly broke down when I heard that my fish was more than likely to loose his eye from an illness, but I kept on medicating him and he's getting much better after I went nuts looking for the right medications to put in his bowl. I even use a turkey baster to get his poo out of the bowl because it would stress him out too much to take him out of the bowl to clean it while he is sick. On the other hand, I let my subeta pets starve because they are not real and have no effect on how I care or do not care for my real pets, now on how much I love them.

What is we dont want to spend our sp on the resort or food/toys?
User not found:
Alferia - Put them in the Lakeside resort instead, it only takes a few minutes and they'll be happy and fed. (: It's not expensive either.
-.O Uh...I usually do take care of my pets. And if I'm not on for a few weeks, I don't know in advance.
I takes hours to feed your pets and play with them since the page is really slow for me.. don't know what it is! But I'm not a fan of this move! >.>

<br />
If someone makes an "Intelligent" comment with "Reason" I listen. According to you, responding is not harassment. You keep contradicting yourself. I think you have more than proved my point and discredited your own.
O...boy. Well -pushes her 15 pets into the resort, minus Liger, being battle pet...always there- Few...don't GROWL at me Toki! (has a chibi king lol)

I agree with 'Noir' WAaaaaay down near the bottom. One click to add them all, and lasting 1 month in the resort would be awesome.
Rachel--Your argument is that...since she thinks there should be a restriction on minion feeding, she has no right to come here and tell people to stop whining about feeding their pets on a PETS site.<br />
<br />
... ...I'm not entirely sure the problem is her 'not listening'.<br />
<br />
<br />
ANYWAYS. I agree with the idea. Keith said they're fixing the Resort up so hopefully they increase the amount of time your pet can stay and maybe make an option to add all pets at once. I think it's a great idea. If you don't want to feed them you can just...have access to some parts of the site restricted! Whatever floats your boat.
Eh - this doesn't bother me that much as I tend to remember to put my pets in the resort every few weeks.<br />
<br />
I just hope they don't change the costs too much and make it outrageously expensive to stay there now.
Pixils, data info. get a real life pet then lobby.<br />
