Okay, so since i rejoined res i noticed that theres a whole bunch of new things that have come on and the events are really good, my favourite is the achromatic event, i look forward to it every month, but when it doesn't come up in the first week of a month, i can't help but feel alittle fustrated as the days go by, its like in october the achros were changed to malal and myotis but then didnt change until december the 5th, ebilias and jaakus didnt get the chance to come out in achro yet narwi and ulius did, vaspi havent had the chance either.

I know that staff have to make some of the artwork and it has to be set up, and that they are busy with other things, but its alittle disapointing when we have to wait already for a certain creatu to come out in the month chosen for them and then find that they've been delayed or that they dont even come out one month.

So, im suggesting that either a small team of staff or one well trusted staff member can organise and control the achros release times and make sure that they occur on time and not late, also that any art work is made in advance, then the site can keep moving and staff can concentrate on the things that they are set to do such as events and contests, and the achros and seasonals will still be there. Also i want to suggest that there are during special events such as halloween, christmas and valentines when there are more than one seasonals released, that those seasonals can be hatched in achro as an extra, not everyone can go hunt for them like the normal eggs, due to time and simple interest examples, so the people who do collect or want to hatch an achro seasonal can while other members without seasonal eggs can hatch more normal pets in achro instead, then the achro seasonals stop after like a week or when the event ends.

I've never complained about res its an amazing site, but this has been bothering me for awhile and i know it bothers other people so.. theres my suggestion.

Well, we're glad to have you back! :D

The reason these events take so long is, well, yes, partly because artists have to recolor them all (For every month, that's been nine pets total. That's a lot.)

The artists work hard to make sure that each pet is perfect for the players here. However, I do believe Meragon and Roditore are the last two that need recoloring to Achro, so after they come out I'm sure the events will go more smoothly. <3

As far as things with plots go, I'm aware of only one writer currently on staff. She works very hard for the things we do get, and you know.

You can't rush perfection.

So, in the end, no support 

</3 

Sorry love

No support.  There's enough to do around the site for the staff that needs to be seen to and honestly I think they could hold less events to finish coding what they already have, not to mention finish such things as the heaps of HA items that still need to be done.  While it's important to keep people interested it's obvious they're having a hard time keeping up since it takes them at least a few weeks for prizes in some event cases.  I think things are better left as is for now.

Hi neko,

I do appreciate your love for Res and for you still coming back to this site. I also would like to appreciate your concern about events not being on time and slow achro releases. We do understand where you are coming from and we would like to apologize for any inconvenience that the recent turn out of events have cost you.

With the many upgrades on site, and the many bug fixes that has to be looked into, staff has to really find time with all these site events. On top of that, we have to make sure that everything that we release will be going smoothly and bug free for the Res community. We'd rather have late releases rather than very crappy and glitched releases which will cause even more problem on site. Rest assured that we have been working hard to catch up with all demands on here and are doing our best to make everyone's stay here a remarkable one.
