Introducing the Friend Feed! As you browse the site, your actions will be displayed on the feed for your friends to see.
The first thing we suggest doing is heading over to the Privacy Options and choosing which options you would like your friends to see.

I don't understand this. I seriously don't give a bunny to know when my friends put their pets in training.

Different spin on the Lurapets concept:
Activism is futile. The only ones who will hear your argument are those who already agree with you, and therefore do not need to be "converted" to your "side". The intended targets of activism and conversionism will immediately and fiercely oppose you just on the principle that you want to force the issue. It literally does nothing.
So...why are you here?

The only useful thing in my opinion is the "topic creation" one.

Neat idea, and I like the privacy options. My only issue is that I'd like a way to filter the things I just don't care about from the default view of the feed. For example, I really don't care what my friends are doing in Item Hunt or how often they're training a pet, so I'd love to be able to just check a box so I never see those in my default view, but still see everything else.
And I agree with whoever said it would be cool to be notified when a friend makes a new HA. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Actually, I kind of like this feature because of the token shop alerts. As for the others.. I think I'll pass XD
But I think some people would find it handy, the only problem here is it keeps track of some little things, such as pet leveling.
If you don't like it, turn it off.. Simple. At least the features not forced upon you, yeah?

@Deli I kind of know what you're saying and do know where you're coming from, but stealing programming is bad.
When people have stolen my coding in the past I have been none too pleased.
But I am tripping myself up. You have ownership of a program but a concept, eh.

OK, let's just say Lurapets did invent the whole news feed idea; who the hell cares? It's a damn convienent feature, and if Facebook and Subeta and Gaia and probably countless other sites want to 'steal' the feature, why the hell shouldn't they? I think it's stupid to want to limit progress to one single site that barely anyone even knows about.
SHARING IS CARING GUYS.
Anyway, about the friend feed. This is extremely awesome on facebook, so I imagine that if I had more friends on Subeta, I would find it extremely awesome here, too. But as it is now, I probably won't be using it much.

It's you who need to get a life if all you have to do with your time is stalk Subeta for Lurapets. Why don't you stick with your little known pet site that no one here cares about and stay away from the party over here.

FFFFFFFFFFFF -comment fail- ;_;
Anyways what I wanted to say in short was that I don't see the point in this because if there is something I MUST tell my friends I'd just comment them. Seems like a waste of time to code this, better spent on doing other things. This is just my opinion though, for those of you who enjoy it, enjoy c:

This is an interesting feature, though I don't think I'll be using it. I suppose if you had a group of friends all intersted in certain parts of the site (trading, posting things, etc) it would work out. I just don't think my friends want to know everything I'm doing all the time (just my personal feeling for myself). I like to pick and chose to share what I deem important (again, a personal opinion). But I'm sure some will like this feature.

I didn't say we personally invented this concept. It just so happens that about a month after we come out with it(oh, and did I mention Keiths' blog?), Keith decides he'll add it to Subeta. It just seems a little coincidental that right after Keith rants about and tries to put down Lurapets for stealing his ideas, which btw I have seen on many other sites(likewise with statuses), he would come out with this. Hmm.. odd.

Oh baww, Keith created a cool new thing for us to use. A bit of info: Lurapets did not invent the status, a lot of sites have used this feature. Besides, sooner or later an idea will end up being copied. In some cases it is called inspiration.
Now, it's impossible for everybody to agree on everything, this is why they've made an option for you to disable this feature. Everybody's happy!

I'm to old, or maybe old fashioned, for this. I avoid twitter/myspace/whatever like the plague because these things drive me nuts. But I'm not going to complain since it has a privacy feature. As long as people that don't like it can turn it off then more power to the people that enjoy it to have fun with it.

Actually the more I think about this the more wonderful it becomes! I kept the topic making one and replies on, token shop, and creating pets/changing their colors on because I want my friends to see. You all think this might not be a social place, but in truth it's extremely social! This feature will be a lot of fun and help me connect to people I've been neglecting on my buddylist for quite a while.

For me it's more like "I don't want to spam my friends with all my pet training, adoptions, auctions, questing, trades, and profile comments." It's not that I don't want them knowing what I'm doing, I just don't want to bother them with all the trivial things or, in the case of profile comments, things that don't necessarily concern them.
(I'm not complaining though... I'm happy that we have options for each so I can shut off what I don't want to flood my feed with.)

I like it but think its to stalkery in a way. I've narrowed it down to where they can only see my status, achievements, token shop buys, trade creation, and thread topics made.

Firstly, this is a type of feature you wouldd see on Myspace, Facebook, and even a bit of twitter. I would never think of a petsite with this type of feature because the three above have been using it for quite a while and are very widely known.
I can see this as possibly being neat and fun, but like many others I'm unsure. I'll give some of the options a run to see how well I like it. You never know until you try it! C:

Yes. I do agree default should always be set to No on everything.
Some people don't check the news or anything before going about their usual business.
Like with the Stealth feature i had to tell most of my friends that they were invisible because of the default was on yes, when they didn't want to be hidden.

Default should be NO. My main concern is the options being reset without us knowing it, which is exactly what happened to me. There are many reasons why we might not want our friends to see ALL our comments, and I really don't want to have to constantly check the privacy settings to see if they have been reset.

I was wary of this at first, but I've just realised the potential the feature has for me. I ADORE knowing about my friends pets and what they are doing with them, and I often go to my friends' profiles to see what updates they've made, and I spend ages trying to figure it out, and then I give up and ask them anyway.
Now I get to see when my friend has changed around her pets, or when another friend has changed the colour of one of her pets. This makes me vastly happy! And it's already started conversations up of 'OH YOU'VE ADOPTED A NEW PET!' which I can then glee about with people who I know care enough to actually ask! Lovelovelove this feature. And it's great that we can pick and choose what we want people to see <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Nice to see some interesting features from facebook and twitter being implemented here! Thank goodness it's not a big huge thing on our homepage though, or clogging up our profiles. It's nice and organised on a separate page. So an improvement on an existing idea!

So, building on ideas ehh? You take Lurapets' "Bulletin" and "Statuses" and turn it into a completely retarded feature, that I doubt anyone will enjoy using.
You really need a life Keith. Stay away from Lurapets if you don't like what we have to offer. A little hypocritical to be stealing ideas, no?
Anyways, I'm not going to sit here and type out some rant that you'll probably never read, so all-in-all just leave us alone.

It's an interesting feature. I can see the use of the "Token Shop" preference, but I set almost everything else to "no" because it just seems pointless to alert my friends to those sorts of things.

'And if you don't want to broadcast? Set everything to no. Simple as that. '
Sure it's as simple as that. Doesn't mean that the people who don't like this feature don't have the right to voice their opinions. Does it always have to be 'omg omg i luv u guys 4eva cuz u made dis new stalker thing' ??
If I like something, I will always make a point to say so. That doesn't mean I can't say when I don't like something, now does it?

It's an interesting feature, although I set nearly everything to no. I kept the Token Shop, achievement, and forum topic alerts though. :3 Those could be fun to share.
Pretty much the exact same arguments are being used here as many people posted on Facebook back when they first implemented the feed. And yet the world didn't stop turning, and FB didn't lose the millions of users that were threatening to quit. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> I think we'll all survive this as well.

Again, letting everyone know that it DOES NOT LEAVE AN EVENT when your friend does something.
Personally...I don't see this as letting them know a whole lot either ? I go on a few different sites where you can click who is online and actually see what they are doing at the moment. What thread they are looking at...etc.

Seeing the posts and comments like that I don't mind. Like Gunblade said, anyone can find those. I really don't see the use of some of the others.
You know, I'm surprised there's no quest one. Something that says how many wiz/sag/others quests you did and failed. Now that I would love to see.

If you don't want your friends knowing what you're doing, why are they friends...I agree with that to a certain extent but at the same time they don't need or want to know every single thing I do on my account every day. That was a valid argument for not using the Stealth option because we don't all talk to every single friend we have every single day. If people don't hide, we at least can see that they are still alive and kicking. But I doubt my friends care when my pets trained, if I won an auction, abandoned or adopted a pet and so forth. I didn't speak up when it was in Beta testing because it was quite obvious this was going to be put in place regardless of what people said. Now made doubly obvious by the very short amount of time it was even beta tested. I just don't understand why this is even necessary.

okaay "Pet Train" - then my friends would have 3 alerts every 2 hours *lol* i think it would be better to be displayed on my profile, or just as a "log" for myself - in fact i would love that. but nice to see all the changes and efforts! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

I don't see how it's creepy. Anyone can find your posts, comments, etc. if they know where to look. This just gives you the option of broadcasting.
And if you don't want to broadcast? Set everything to no. Simple as that.

Why I don't want my friends to know what I'm doing? Because if they really want to know, I'll tell them. Same thing in rl if a friend wants to know what I'm up to, ask me. No peeping through my windows. xD

Carol, I agree with this. However, if I wanted my friends to know that I won an auction, doing Item Hunt quests, Created a Forum Thread, Left a Comment on someone's page.
I'd tell them.
Especially if i'm talking to someone about a gift I may be getting the friend or however.
I don't need them to know everything I do.
It's a bit creepy. Even though I love my friends to pieces x3
ah but that is just my view.

With all the options, this new feature pretty much covers those who are social, anti-social and everyone in between! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /><img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" />

Speaking of which, the friend feed just let me know, based on my friend's purchases, that the token shop restocked. How handy!

@maddgranma I have the same problem.
Furthermore I noticed that you're able to insert usernames. Since I have no facebook experience or similar experiences, I have no idea what to do with all of this.
But I guess it's bugged for now.

I love all of the people who are saying "I don't want my friends to know what I'm doing." ...Why the heck are they your friends, then?
I love this feature and I think it's going to open up a whole new aspect of social networking on pet sites that we haven't seen before. I think it's a great little innovation. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Oooh, thanks for the info! ^^ I get it now! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> For a moment I was worried about my events clogging up majorly. XD Neat little idea! ^^ I like it. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I think I'll leave all mine to 'yes', as well. I don't mind if my friends become stalkers. In fact, I'll be flattered! XD BWAHAHA!

I still don't understand this or how to work it.
Apparently all my things are active, but putting my pets into training doesn't trigger it or show up.

??? I wasn't waiting for stuff like this.
I guess it's a fab to let folks know what you're doing. I'm not that kind of an exhibitionist. I will only activate a few. If they get a message every time I train a pet or do the item hunt, they can go crazy of all the messages flying around.

@itsdarkatnight -- Nope, it won't show up as an event. Rather, it shows up in the friend feed box. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
What's nice about this is you can chose what to show your friends and what not to, or even not show them anything if you'd like. I have all my options set on 'yes' because I really don't give a crap if my friends know what I have done/am doing. xD

Hmm, not going to use this. If I want to know what my friends are doing, I'll just ask. :/ Don't really see the benefit of it - and it seems a little stalkerish, tbh.

Neat. Could be especially useful for watching trades.
I haven't had any problems setting my feed the way I want it. If it was a glitch it's clearly already been fixed. Well done, staff!

I don't understand how this works yet. ^^ I'll hold back on setting my options for this until I can see what my friends are doing/what they think of it.
I'm wondering if whenever my friends will do something if it'll show up as an 'Event' for me? ***so confused***

@SpecialSpice - Update your status and try again. It could be that there are no 'options' for you because you haven't used the feed.

Boy, "tmi" for sure. Can it let my friends know when I go to the bathroom as well? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
In seriousness, wouldn't it have made sense to make the default for these options "no" ... and let users decide which options they'd like to share with others?
I'd also like to mention that it isn't letting you save the options differently ... they are "stuck" on yes.
