KittyCats not requiring confirm for MENAGERIE - Liriel Garnet - 09-03-2013 04:34 PM
I'm in the process of clearing my inventory of old cats and sending them to menagerie. I noticed something odd. Most of the old ones went to menagerie, i got the 'send in' and then 'are you sure' confirmations. The ones that were up to date (recent retirees), i only got the 'send in', and then they just went... given how close the cattery and menagerie buttons are, it REALLY would be a good idea to put the confirmation BACK for menagerie.
I realize that we can get them back if we make a mistake, but that involves going to the store and getting the retrieval potion and all that. It just seems simpler to have the double confirm. Cattery, if you send them there by accident, no damage, you retrieve them from cattery and send to menagerie.

I thought it might just be my setttings! So it's good to see that I'm not the only one no longer getting the "are you sure?" confirmation, either. I know that in the past I've had to click "No" for the "are you sure? " question, when i had clicked Menagerie by mistake. So ... I agree with Liriel's wish to restore that second "are you sure?" dialogue.

It's always good to ensure important options. Users tend to "pattern" responses, though, so "are you sure" questions can easily garner "what-ever, don't bother me" responses. I'll bet more people have noticed the lack of the are-you-sure prompt than ever paid attention to its presence prior to the change.
The advent of the (free) Magic Bottle is a much better solution.
That's not to argue against the are-you-sure prompt .. in fact, I'd suggest restoring it. Just my feeling that it's importance has gone away and, if it had never been there, and we'd have the bottle all along, nobody would be asking for the prompt.

what i have noticed, is that it will still ask you if you are sending in a box but no longer on the live ones. Which makes no sense to me, it's as if they are saying "boxes are more valuable than live ones"

I actually like it better without the confirmation and if I accidentally menagerie a cat I didn't mean to, I can always hop into the main store lobby to snag a few magical menagerie blue bottles for that particular kitty and for any future menagerie accidents. I can totally see why others may not want to be bothered with TPing to the main store more than they're accustomed to due to lag and whatnot that often plagues the sim among other possible issues.
RL-wise, this "bug" has saved me the trouble of irritating my primarily finger-oriented carpal tunnel even more when I mass menagerie kitties for tiger-making by avoiding having to click more so. On another note - I totally wish we had an option to mass menagerie in just a fewer clicks versus having to deal with each cat/box individually. I almost always have to have someone else mass menagerie cats for me due to my carpal but with this bug, I've been more self-sufficient when needing to send cats to the menagerie in extremely large quantities and it isn't as much of a dreaded process for me.
I'm not sure if KittyCatS intended to do this (assuming not, as it wasn't included in update notes) or if it's a mistake but hopefully we can at least get an option to fix this bug for those who want this extra step re-implemented, but provide a way to more quickly menagerie kitties (Maybe a cattery-only feature?) for those who prefer less steps for their own reasons?
