Fwee, Feni likes this idea. I hope, though, that Pat will agree. D: Or at least develop something along the lines of this.

If I had the money, I'd totally help you guys with cleaning out the ACS.

I absolutely agree with this. It is almost impossible to find a good name now. If you hatch a rare pet you have to give him a not-so-nice name and get used to it... 

I have high hopes for this idea <3

I think this is a good idea, even if it could only be implimented in a limited form, like having the option to delete pets only during the hatching process or something.  At the very least it would help keep the problem from getting worse.

I mentioned in an another suggestion thread about having a button in the top of the creatu hatching page to realease a creatu into the wild with no name.  This would effectively get rid of having to name a creatu you hatched that no one wants, and the creatu could just be deleted that way.

Of course, I'm one of those that will go without hatching for days simply because I don't want to forest anything, so I loose those hatches.  Perhaps there could be a way for ranchers to sell their hatches to an NPC that other folks could buy later for more money.  This would prevent folks from feeling "obligated" to hatch for the day and would quiet those people who complain they don't get to hatch enough.  Of course, I'd still like to see hatches decreased before then.

Its an option to consider at any rate.

And its not impossible to hatch a good name.  I've hundreds of good names in my shop. You just have to be able to look beyond the dictionary to do so.  There are other languages you can get a name for with online dictionaries if you must have a real word, or you can simply make up a name.  There are far too many real word pets around that I simply do not want to purchase. 

I surf the ACS, buy cheap seasonal natties with horrid names and either release them, or keep them to rename later.  I look for poorly named, cheap albinos to rename.  I've also seen the liyures and kiokas going extremely cheap with names that I wouldn't give to any pet, much less the most expensive ones.  And all I can think about while doing this is "Why bother hatching, much less keeping the creatu in your shop in the hopes that someone will come along and buy something super cheap that they won't treasure."

wait...what? let me get this strait. you mean that we should delete badly named creatu and sell/search forest good nemed creatu? thats a good idea. when i search for creatu in "advanced creatu search" i find creatu with numbers for names. poor things.

No, that not what we meant, maji.
What we're trying to suggesting here is to delete creatu that are unwanted to us.

I still have problems with this idea.

I worry that giving user the ability to delete pets from hatches or otherwise will allow them to completely disregard hatches they don't like.

The ratios of rare colors to 'common' colors would be thrown off. People may not have a problem with deleting natural-black, not many players would delete a blonde or albino, even with a bad name.I think eventually, even with this feature you'd have the same problem of species and color devalue. 

I do think this suggestion could be a fix short-term to the oversupply problem. Long term I think it would cause problems and disrupt the hatching game play. And given this site doesn't have the best record of timeliness, I would be concerned if this where actually implemented it would be around for a loooong while. 

I would be more interested in a solution that limits/effects hatching itself. That seems more like treating a cause rather than a syptom. Too many creatu are a result of too many hatches.

I love this idea but with it I would also love to be able to give pets, not trade; just give a pet to another person for nothing. It's much better than creating a junk to forest later after getting want you want leading the rest of the problem.

"But as well as being able to delete common creatu and colors in the forest, there should also be an option to re-name. That way rare pets with bad names aren't wasted, but we can also clear out all of the common ones as well."

Then it's like having five more hatches. Isn't this opposite what Gunmetal and that one Air chick have also been aiming for - less hatches?

 There is. It's called a Name Tag.
