I wasn't able to find any posts in regard to this, so if this has already been suggested forgive me!

I want to bring up the possibility of enabling access to one's inbox without rolling over. While it's not super common for me personally, I hate having to roll over to view a message when I see a 1 or 2 next to it. Some days I don't feel like playing fully so I don't want to waste the rollover. But if I see that number, I have to roll over to check the inbox.

Granted it's not important most of the time... but you never know. For some people, discussions about art trades or other important things could pop up. Things they might not want to miss. I log on every day to check that inbox, but if it's empty I won't bother rolling over.

I just don't want to have to roll over every time I get a message. Because when I roll over I now have to remember to feed and play with all my lions, build any nests and make sure I now have extra food for the next rollover. Whereas if I could check my messages without rolling over, I can save all that for a day I actually want to play. I'll admit I have days where I roll over just to reply to a message and I completely forget about my lions. Come next roll over when I do want to play, I have runaways or lost cubs.

Overall, I feel the inbox should be accessible outside of rolling over. I don't want to waste a rollover on a clan announcement but I don't want to ignore the notification if it is about an art purchase or some other important content.

Thank you for your time! If it can't be done that's completely understandable!

A lovely addition by Assassin {#Furry} (#23905)

"I do have a suggestion to add, possibly a notification at the bottom or top of message that states something to the effect of "This message was sent without a rollover." or something more proper. I feel like this would help people in situations that they need to reply to someone, but are not rolled over to send funds or otherwise transfer goods to another user. I feel like people would try to abuse it by saying "oh so and so scammed me, they were online and sent me a message but never sent my beetles". The little notif with it would clear up a few potential problems :3"

I feel this is also a very good point, as it can eliminate future problems if this type of thing were to pass thank you so much for the input <3



This suggestion has 169 supports and 2 NO supports.

I absolutely agree. I can't agree enough actually.
I don't always have time to play, tops maybe an hour or two in the afternoon during the week days. I can't change that, I work full time, and sometimes I have to ignore messages for long periods of time simply because I do not have the time or energy necessary to properly take care of my pride.
Having access to our inboxes would be so helpful. For me personally, it would mean responding to artists, answering their questions, and not having to wait and hold them up and cause delay. I KNOW I've bothered artists doing this but there's litterally nothing I can do, sometimes they get held up by me for a week or more. And I hate doing that, I really do.

Great suggestion, I'll be bumping

I will get on my knees and beg if that was what it took to get this implemented. I always message people on occasion but fact is I frankly don't always feel driven to get on LD so being able to check PMs without rolling over would be such a useful feature so I don't keep people waiting on responses.

I couldn't agree more! I get moments where I don't feel like playing as well and just want a quick conversation or just a message check!

I really agree with this because sometimes I don't want to log in and see if anyone has messaged me for commissions or if I ordered a commission and it came in

Yes! Like Assassin said, I dm about art a lot and then once I log on to check for a reply, I get distracted and forget to respond to the artist all together. Pretty frustrating and makes me feel terrible.
