Update Canceled
In one week, on October 7th, a new system will be put into place that will monitor people's parties for eggs they've had for too long. There's a couple of reasons for this, but the one that makes the most official sense is that eggs need nourishment and if you can't provide it to them in a reasonable amount of time, they need to be taken away so another user can have a shot at it. What will happen is they will be sent to the shelter. And of course, if they're not adopted within 3 days, they will be gone forever. The amount of time required to hatch them will depend on the maximum maturity the egg needs and, unless changed before then, will range from 3 to 25 days. This range is tentative, but the amount is still being worked out along with getting extra time during each stage (crack) of the egg. This is yet another big update, like the whole validation fiasco (where unvalidated accounts were given one week to validate before we deleted them all), and we don't want to give people reason to complain that we didn't warn them again. So this announcement is being posted here, with a link at the top of GPXPlus and on the Twitter. It's up to all of you to alert your friends who might be avoiding the site for one reason or another to hatch their eggs if they have anything they really want to keep. EDIT: Also, eggs that are ready to be hatched will not be affected by this. Please don't do something stupid like abandon all of your Pokémon and leave the site because of this announcement. The idea isn't even 100% thought up yet, and is definitely bound to change. We will make sure we do as much as we can to implement this AND keep people safe and happy who still come on the site, if only once a week.

If you know about your trip before hand and know that you won't be able to hatch it then it's only better for you to put out pokemon rather than get eggs. Like I said before, the system was brought up due to an ungodly amount of people who ONLY LOG ON TO GET EVENTS AND NEVER HATCH THEM.
I see people try to hatch their legends from the last event (bidofo) and can understand when real life decides to take a turn for the worst. However the fact that a lot of people are being selfish kinda really doesn't make it any more fairer than to people who actually take the time and to try to play the game. And if people know that they're going to take forever to hatch a legendary, then quite frankly they shouldn't gun for it at all. I know some people who understand this situation and actually drop their legendaries because they know that they will never have the time to hatch them. Yes it sucks that you won't be able to have that legendary but it's better than letting it rot in your party for months on end taunting people who are active on the site with something that they didn't get and could actually hatch and appreciate because you aren't decisive enough to know when to let go.
