I definitely suggest minigames like others has suggest that, and personally I would rather keep making gold off clicking eggs, but to daily limit is ideal, so the goldminers cannot continue all day to cause lag issues to the website, so theres daily limit to egg clicking as long as other ways to earn gold rather than clicking/posting.

I've been part of PonyIsland and GaiaOnline for years, and the ways of earning gold are daily log ins, daily reward if you log in daily you earn gold, and maybe some special prizes/eggs for log x of days... like 20 days, 30/31 days you get egg, or some sort, which will encourage people log in to earn that as well.

Mini games as in jigsaw of the art that were created on this site, art contests, fishing in the Magi Stream itself to fish up gold or items, or even eggs.

Maybe consider drop limit of eggs if limit to amount of clicks per day for us who spend clicking away so we can collect more?

Just ideas to throw out there. <3

Looking forward to see all of the improvements when you guys get around to it.

This would be ideal, I think, especially if getting gold from adults is dropped.

If you finish the "attune to an element" quest (found in the Keep in the world map) clicking eggs/hatchlings associated with your chosen element gives more gold. Also, if you do not already have it, the alicanto heart item you can buy in the artificer shop (has to be unlocked with another quest which starts in Synara city) raises the amount of gold gained from clicking live eggs to 5. The limit of gold gained from posting on the forums has also been raised.

If someone wanted their element strictly for gold making, which element would you say is the most commonly seen? I'm honestly curious. ...and broke gold wise, so I'm looking for anything I can do lol
Buying Phoenix Arkai, not sure what amount of gold to offer for them
Feel free to offer on creatures in my 'For Sale' tab.

I may be mistaken, but I think that:
1) The vast majority of creatures are neutral with no element.
2) The majority of those who do are donation, breeding, event, shop creatures.

The Alicanto Heart seems to be the better option than to specialize in an element is, because you get extra gold for every creature.
My join date says 2012, when I made an account I promptly forgot about until August 2023, so I'm really *gasp* a newbie. :)
I have no phobias or disliked critters. Feel free to click anything in my keep, except the "Quests" tab. I think you'll find plenty there without those 2 or 3.
