Change A Few Drop Down Menu Options

So, during the last party in hell I was lagging and when I wanted to click to race a cubimal I accidentally clicked drop, but it took me quite some time to realize I dropped it because of the lag.  It was right before reset so it didn't matter anyways, but this isn't the only time I've accidentally dropped or given an item away.  I was just wondering if it would be possible to add a "Are you sure?" option, or perhaps make it slightly harder to drop an item (ex: having to click and drag it out of the bag as the only way to drop/give) in order to help from accidental item losses!

  • the click and drag function exists. do you mean to make it the ONLY way to drop things? (oh btw I think you typed "auctions")

  • Yes thanks I just noticed that about auctions lol.  And yes, I mean make it the ONLY way to drop things

  • Hmm, I think if I had a choice between drag and drop only or an 'are you sure?' window, I'd go with the window. Just because not everyone will think to drag and drop, so some people might think they can't drop stuff if the option isn't on the menu.

    The 'are you sure?' thing might get a bit annoying if you're dropping a lot of stuff, but if the default answer if yes and you can just quickly click through it then it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

  • Yeah I agree that the "are you sure" window could be very annoying, and the game already requires a lot of clicking.  Maybe it could just ask for the first thing you drop for a couple of minutes it doesn't ask again or something.

    Or am I just the only dummy who has accidentally dropped/given away something important?

  • @Laurali, Yes. You are.  ;)

    Probably not. I've not done it before. But I have accidentally poisoned a tree before.

    And I've almost set my chicken free before. But I think there is an "Are you sure?" for that.

    Maybe the "Are you sure?" wouldn't pop up if you're in a house or group hall? *shrug*

  • Yeah but poisoning a tree or getting rid of a chicken can be replaced fairly easily.  Imagine losing an extremely rare cubimal, or the beta only pickle, or something that can't be replaced?  It would really suck!

  • Agreed. That's why I was agreeing with you. ;)

    I need to approve my rhetoric skills. I wasn't clear on my stance.

  • Nah I knew you were agreeing, and I was reinforcing your agreement.

    Get it?

  • To quote one of the all-time greatest minds in the history of history:

    I try to think, but nothing happens.

  • the nly time i ever accidentally dropped an object was by dragging it...

    takes all kinds, i guess.

  • Lol I guess so!  Maybe they could have an option you could turn off and on, like if you choose to you can have the "drag" dimmed out but then you can turn it back on if you need it.  Seems like it wouldn't be too hard to do that, but then again I know nothing about anything about making things happen.
