Alright, so you have a name you want; lets say for arguments sake its the name "Wendy" You type in the name "Wendy" and you see: There are 1 pets with the name of wendy. Only one pet can be named Wendy, so other than checking availablity, its virtually useless. I propose, instead of hunting for the name "Wendy" amung thousands of other We names, that you have the same info on it: Innuo | Wendy | Zaphao | Cream | 0 | Show Room |
OR a link to the pet.
Sometimes you are looking for the name to purchase it, correct? Anyway, thats just my suggestion, I've been trying for two days just trying to wade through all the names, still never finding the one I want. xP And that should not be. Thank you for listening and hope you have a great day. ~

Very much support. Sorting through thousands of pages of names is a real h*censored*le.

It is a pain. D: And since you already GOT the coding, I doubt putting it on another page would be all that hard to do, I'd imagine not even 5 minutes.

Support as it is also very annoying to search for a specific name in thousands of the same species

It would make it easier to wade through all those silly nameless dead pets; either delete them or filter them out, sheesh.

See I support this, for one reason, I'm searching for a pet, and want to know where it is, like in a shop, or gallery, or whatever, and it really annoys me sometimes.

Yeah, and you have the coding for it, like I said. D: Just change a couple words and smack it on.

Sorry guys, it's already been decided that name search will never be this simple. It will prevent every person who wants every name in existence from being able to immediately find the location of the name and beg for it, lol. If a person reaaally wants a name, it's not that hard to locate the pet. Think of it more like a name quest than a tedious task. =)

But if people look for it and find it, won't they beg for it anyway?

Most people who are going to bed don't go through the trouble of searching for hours for a single name. xD I for one, like the ability of not being able to find names right off the bat. xD I dunno...it just seems to make things...harder and therefore more interesting. :p But I suppose i'm in the minority there.

Or you could just not bother and ask in the shout box. I've seen a lot of those. Maybe ... just not have a filter with a "find only this" so lets say you type in Sun, you don't JUST find sun but also every other pet wiht the word "sun" in it if you REALLY don't want it to be "easy"? Although, I honestly find it a bit silly and sounds like well.. you know the word I am thinking of xP

I have to disagree about this. D: Mainly because I search names for people for a small price, and if that feature was added, I would lose tu. >.<" I kind of actually enjoy flipping through page after page, and I do it quite often, actually. ^^ And, the last idea wouldn't work very well... because if you you type in "Wendy" like in the above post, the name "Wendy" Would stll pop up, along with Wendys WendyDay, YumWendys, etc. Anyway, Innuo, if you want me to find a name for you, I'll do it half-price. ^^ Just rmail me the name and I'll rmail you back about it and stuff.
I have to get this thing to level 1,000. Please, help.

Like you said, you can do it yourself, it just takes a while. It's not necessary to make it easier for the reasons previously stated.

chezzeh - Maybe, to simplify the means of searching for a name (like if you wanted Wendy, and Wendy only), you can choose something like "Exact Word" or "Name Containing Word". It'd allow people to chose whether they wanted that particular name alone, or something else including it. I support. It might not make a m*censored*ive change to some users' gameplay, but this will help a lot. It drives me insane having to search through everything just to see who owns what and whether it's for sale.

Dood. That makes me happy, Broken. Srsly. o3o I've always hated the idea of having a name search. I like having to put in a little effort to get things. Makes it feel rewarding. And as Broken said, if people didn't have to put in that effort, there would probably be a lot more begging thrown on collectors. Beggars don't like effort; that's precisely why they beg, and why the current ACS prevents them from doing so. I could probably list nine thousand other reasons I've seen other people say and that have come to mind while disagreeing with just about every one of these threads that pops up, but.. I think I'll just leave it. Looks like I don't have to repeatedly disagree anymore. xD *cheers staff* ... What's that name for which you've been looking, anyway? I could probably find it for ya. ;o
