Default Adoptable hosts Vs Mysidia Adoptables

I noticed there are a lot of people who use my adopts and v adopts but what are the advantages to them over hosting your own?

Mysidia Adoptables:

Pros:

Less Down time
Image hosting
Unlimited adoptables
unlimited Pages
unlimited adoptable stages
unlimited pages*
Promo codes
No premium services

Alternate outcomes
Fully Customizable
Less restrictive
Easier to make layout for
More control
Mods
Better support
Ads optional

Shoutbox
Trading



Cons:
You have to get your own host.
Have to have basic knowledge of running a site
Have to have knowledge of FTP
Doing your own coding*

Have to find the right host
No link removal
**BB only
**No adoptable pricing
**No shop


*This is optional since you can use the basic script and still have a working site.

** this is easy to add or will be release in the the next version of the script.

Thing to remember about Mysidia Adoptables is that it's fully customizable any features not present either can be added or will be adding in the future.

My Adopts:

Pros:
Free Hosting
Image hosting
Unlimited adoptables
Promo codes
No premium services

Alternate outcomes
No set up needed.
Can get your site ready quickly.
Easy to use.
Customisable CSS

Also well supported
Free backups
Adoptable pricing
Shoutbox
Online list
Trading



Cons:
Hampered by down time.
Less
Customizable
Can't be resource heavy
Risk of having it deleted (related to the above)
Less features (as of now)
Slow down (mostly do to other sites)

No link removal
BB only
No shop


At the bottom of are list is the site I hate. Frankly I have no idea why people use this companies hosting.


v-adoptables:

Free Hosting
No set up needed.
Can get your site ready quickly.
VERY Easy to use.
Customizable CSS

Supported
Features not present in MA
Link removal*


Cons: ugh were I start?
Dreadful navigation
you can't edit your site from the site it's self
Limited adoptables****
Limited adoptable stages****
Limited pages****
Limited Inbox Size****
Ads****
Promised features being pushed back repeatedly

No Image hosting

****Require you to spend points.



Pleas let me know if I missed any thing here or if there is another site I missed.

NO V-petsite does not count! adoptables and petsites are to different animals!

Well I use MA a bit so I can add some X3 (and as being a Vice Admin on MA I can only think of positive stuff right now, sorry if I sound like I'm advocating for "my" own site )

MA (pros):
-Shoutbox
-Online list
-Trading

Oh and about the shops, it's rather easy to make one, just promocode+money+new page=shop. So you might just wanna add there's no built in shop but you can make one

Oh and I think people use V-Adopts because it came before MA (form my best guess) and those are the only two adoptable hosting website I've heard of. Thus, the older one would get more traffic in a sense.

I guess your right about the shop promo code combo. It never fails to impress me how creative people can be even with MA limits. I think one flaw of it is the slow down caused by resource heavy sites. sigh pokemon site to be frank....


Ugh I even hear people say v-adopt is better!? I dunno what I hate about them is they promise features and one year later NOT A THING has changed.

Well people have different tastes, there's something we will have to realize, accept and live with. You can always list advantages and disadvantages of using a software or hosting services, but whether they are good or bad is completely up for the users to figure out on their own.

@ Gigi: Mys has Trade and shoutbox too. XD I am rather more interested in learning what other exclusive features MA has over Mys and VA though.

True true but in terms of good service and support you can't beat mysidia adoptables and My adopts. I'm not saying there wrong for liking v-adopts I'm just saying there service is not as good as MY. I think they try doing to much. At least Brenden made the wise choice to sell his script and take care of MA. Clicky games now lunaverse promises the world and does not deliver. There is one thing I hate it's a developer who baits you with promises they can't keep. I think they should stick to one thing before doing another.

This is what annoys me about people who a lot of projects. They can't focus one one site and end up with one or more suffering for it.

Dont worry about it Roconza, you didnt really say anything wrong. I was just answering your question why some people actually prefer vadoptables even if it may seem inferior to you. Hope it cleared your doubts a little bit.

I under stand I didn't mean to bash them it's just they let me down and I never forgot. I just hope people weigh the pro and cons of each option in order to get the best use out of what they need.

I just feel bad for people still waiting for those updates.
