This is an idea I picked up at LaTale Discord server and decided to bring over here for further discussion.
Japanese LaTale server has a feature that allows the players to put each and every pet they can come across into their bank storage. On one hand this means they do not have to buy 22+ pets for their main character, then the same number of pets for their alt #1, then for alt #2, etc. (buying 50+ pets is absolutely no fun I must say).
On the other hand their 30 days pet herbs cost around $2 each, which makes up for a monthly payment of 50+ USD. This might seem as a hefty price tag but in return it creates a huge incentive to make alts and experiment with different classes as players' hands are no longer cuffed with a necessity of buying pets over and over again.
Do you like this idea? Would you like this system to be implemented here, at Papaya LaTale? How would you change it to better suit your needs?

To combat the lack of IDR on the server, why doesn't Papaya simply increase the number of clears per dugeon? It doens't have to be high, like doubling, but maybe 2 or 3 more available runs per day? You never know how lucky you can get at the end of a run (but everyone knows how unlucky you can be at the end).
The truth about humanity is that no one can ever truly be alone. Don't be mean to others. You never know who they might be in the future, or how important they might become.
Here's an suggestion that I have, I have no idea if this will ever be implemented. I don't even know if a GM is reading this, but here I go. I am suggesting that dungeons like Ymir/Ifrit/Degos/Roads etc drop items at a 500% IDR rate. Heres the catch though, selling the items via npc shop will be useless because I'm suggesting that we change the sell rate to like 100 ely. Bam, we don't have to worry about this inflation from people who farm a tremendous amount of ely. But, how will players make their ELYYYYYY DOEEEEEE?? As always, there are many ways to make ely without selling equips from dungeons. I am only saying to make the sell rate to 100 ely for DUNGEON GEAR ONLY. This doesn't go farther to field drop items. Please note this is just a suggestion.
1. Give us a means of getting a permanent version of that adorable frog raincoat set you can fish up the pieces for that last for 3 days. Even if it's turning in a butt ton of fish. Having a means to earn a permanent version would be nice.
2. Some of us who played way back in the day really liked mining and still miss it. It'd be nice to see it brought back. Not the way it used to be of course, where it was used for crafting, but as a completely optional thing we could do, like fishing is! So you'd go mine, and then turn in things you mine up much like the way you do at the Rainbow Fishing Hole for items. It'd give us something else we could do in game, and more things to do are always good because as is it feels a little lacking.
@Otakatt Your second suggestion is a great one. Maybe make it so that the ticket to get to the mines is low from every mob, but the items you get in the mines can either be redeemed for essentials, like xp pots, or just straight up be xp pots (bound of course). It also doesn't have to be pots, but things like materials for crafting (like the old days) or for accessories (I'm looking at the mutation ones). I used to talk to people while mining, back in the day.

It's about time to implement same-sex couples and weddings, in my opinion (and the opinion of practically everyone else)! Gone are the days of bizarre homophobia that were apparently rife in OGP circa ~2008, and there's really no reason to keep that particularly legacy.
I'll also second @GreyEnneract and @erendor. Black skin being behind a paywall is really silly. Black skin is actually a thing, lol. So I can see why green or purple or blue or mecha skin costs money. I can't understand why black skin would.
Same sex couples/marriage hurts no one so there's no reason to not implement that.
With the new exp packages, im noticing that there was no moderately priced packages involving the 300% potion.
That is actually a problem. Implementing tradeable 300% potions at a lower price would stop people like me from buying up 500%s that serious grinders already have enough demand for.
Also, the lack of options for casual spenders/players in general is a little, well, Ya look desperate for them whales papaya. Don't get tunnel vision. Lots of ogp players were willing to spend for emotes and such too.
So the skin choices: very white, white and nearly white? that's all? I think it's really sucky that the brown colors that were default in ogp are not on this version of the game. I find it uncool that I, a brown dude has to pay to get brown skin. I am sure I am not the only one that feels that way. It would be nice if that's something that could be fixed in the future. ~anger face~
so yeah. I would like to suggest that we get some of the darker skin colors to become default at character creation. I find it sucky to have to pay to be brown.
Also I agree on the mining idea that Otakatt suggested. I'd totally do that as miming was something I did hardcore back in the day.
