Right. So I want to talk about Shrine Traits because it seriously needs to be done.

Millie asked in this Help topic about when Shrine Traits would be approved and Shrewdie said that the shrine is often forgotten. Which is understandable, but that brings us to the question if the system doesn't need a change to make it less frustrating for users and easier for mods.

Let's look at the Traits posted there which have not recieved an answer from a mod yet. Millie's is from 03/02/2013 and mine is from 06/22/2012, which is...almost two years. Seriously, I understand the Shrine being not a priority, but this is pretty ridiculous. And mind you, this is just the initial thing. There needs to be a whole RP attached to getting Shrine Traits, after all!

We have a war going on right now and not just since yesterday and this means that these Traits could make a real difference for the user. Granted, mine not so much since the war battles aren't double battles, but Millie asked for Elusive Foe and while the "new" version hasn't been tested, we can assume that it still will help in battle. So given that there is right now an actual, big use - probably the biggest use the site can offer - for the Traits, it's kinda poor that they aren't given out to the people asking for them, right?

Because of that, I suggest a change. I always loved the idea of RPing with gods, but if the RPs never happen because the mods are too busy, there's hardly any point. So I suggest either that the Shrine gets cancelled entirely and that Shrine Traits can be requested simply like restricted Traits (maybe with a more detailed description why the pet should have the Trait) or that the Shrine stays (to keep the original idea), but the mods only need to reply once to the original request and no RP is needed anymore.

Srsly, I just want my Trait or at least get told I'm not getting it, ahahahaha. ;_____________;
