Future Friends: Untaken Pet Names + Question
Post Body

Hi, I am Zen and I run Future Friends at /~Namesly which is full of untaken names that I (or a few others) have discovered. Since UCs have made a comeback I thought it was time to get my guide out there again.

https://www.neopets.com/~Namesly

Please let me know here (comments, DM, PM) or via neomail (zeniththeblack) if you take a name (or names). Also if there are names already taken. I do try to keep it up-to-date! Over 500 names have been taken from the list so far! (:

So, my question is -- is there a way to code a page that automatically identifies which names have been taken? I have been using the 'plug and chug' method where I go through every single name and plug them into the 'Create A Pet' name bar. It takes around 4 hours to go through the entire list once. For awhile my friend had coded an excel sheet to pull the names but it has stopped working in the past 2 months. Any ideas how to code for something like this? No worries if not, I want to help my friend but I literally know zero about coding.

Also I don't have any news but I have heard whispers of a purge. I am so excited!

And if anyone ever wants to donate names feel free. I can credit you somewhere on the page. ^^ Thanks for looking!
