Suggestions

I personally would be more for a mechanic that forced people to name dragons before *selling* than before exalting. That way it would put it firmly on the end of the people who care about offspring lists to 'fix' the issue. (I don't support such a mechanic).

I don't know what it is about flight rising, but I haven't seen another site, even ones with lineages, where this is even an issue. Even with 'releasing/deleting/whatever they want to call it (though many times the deletion is permanent and the pet is just gone, ID just returns a 'no such pet' message), on nearly every other site I have played, no one cares what you name the dragon they sell. (maybe I just missed it on some of the sites, but I really don't remember). And, some of those sites DO show the name on the parent's page.

I do think that FR needs a better tutorial about selling and retaining ownership (as in the seller doesn't retain ownership at all) and we definitely need a way to customize offspring lists without affecting the actual dragons listed. But, bottom line, it is up to the person who cares to take steps to 'fix' the problem, and not the random person who buys the dragon. So, if you dislike unnamed dragons, name them before you sell them, no matter the price point of the dragon. If you dislike keyboard smashes, name the dragon before you sell. If you dislike 'fodder names', name the dragon before you sell. Don't expect anyone else to know your preferences.

People who buy dragons and exalt them without naming do not know several things 1) what you prefer a name to look like 2) if you care about unnamed in offspring lists. It is not the buyer's job to control [b]your[/b] offspring list.

So that you would need to actively choose to leave the dragon unnamed before selling. Maybe that would help to make it clearer that it's first and foremost the seller's choice to name the dragon or not.

You get a final chance to name any unnamed dragons, seeing the warning fully in place.

[quote name="Corviknight" date="2021-01-23 17:28:48" ] My progen's second kid is called FartyPants. Named isn't always prettier than Unnamed. If you sincerely believe that Unnamed is uglier than FartyPants, I'm not sure what to tell you, guys. [/quote] Yeah, that too. Part of my progens' list: Batutu SacrificedOne Bloomdoom SacrificedOne Blend Hinekiri Meir Meir Liam Kuthan Elfstone Duck Duck Duck Ironwolf Or this part: Biscuit Biscuit Biscuit Kuthan Biscuit Tater Tater Alien Alien Alien LoveTofu And technically yes, they're all named, but... Idk, I'd prefer them to be exalted unnamed, tbh. Wouldn't look worse. I also remember Poobles and WhiteSupremacy in the lists. Would prefer Unnamed there instead, too...

And yes some names are worse than unnamed. I would rather have unnamed than FODDER or any other all caps mix even.

no support as this is a self-solvable issue
name them yourself before selling them
