1.) Separate out one's own creatures from those one is "sitting"/"ninjaing"; place ninja'd creatures/sittings in spoilers automatically no matter how many creatures there are;
2.) If there are more of one's own creatures than can be fitted into the signature (15 if no other links are there)? Place them in a spoiler without hesitation (codes for ninjas are a good idea if they are not also posted in one's signature);
3.) Don't place creatures in the click game/Hatchery post which appear in one's signature. No need to duplicate. Just direct users to the signature to click the creatures there;
4.) Consider NOT posting CREATURES from other sites in signatures and/or the DAN; link to one's Keep-equivalent instead. Posting non-MS creatures, IMHO, clutters up DAN posts and signatures even more than they are already. Any good pet game has provisions to "level-up" creatures connected with that site and/or associated with it. MS should not be a substitute for failure to use those site-specific resources properly.
One also needs to consider that MS should not act as advertising for other pet sites (or other sites at all). That's really what posting creatures from other sites does: Gives them free advertising that they may actually NOT want (sites may want to control where and how they are advertised). If one really wants to post other sites' creatures (or links, come to think of it)? Use one's Profile page and tell people to go there if they want to "level-up" offsite creatures;
5.) Try to NOT post more than once on the same page of any click game. Waiting is indeed good and checking before posting is even better. However, I will be pragmatic about this point: Errors do occur for whatever reason and people should not get upset if they do;
6.) Consider using the DAN as the first place to post (on MS). Most of the problems we see with click games would not exist IF the DAN were the only game in town; everyone gets only one post and it's easy to keep track of who got clicked when even if one does not check the click logs! It's the persistent "spamming" of the other click games--unfortunately necessary the way the game is set up if one is to get any benefit from posting in those games--that perhaps drives people crazier than anything else;
7.) Remember the Golden Rule. If one wants clicks, one must GIVE them. To anyone within a reasonable number of posts from one's own. DON'T click just one's friends' and/or MS staff's creatures, but broadcast your clicks far and wide to help out others, even people one does not know.
That's only fair.
P.S.: Why not check out MS' fan-owned click sites? Don't pass up the chance to get even more gold.
