After “dying” twice on Habit RPG and reading the first few chapters of Don’t Shoot the Dog (via a Reddit post from EY, the evidence seems to indicate that I’m trying to make too big of a change too quickly (or, too many small changes).
I’m going to look for a way to pause or temporarily hide items on Habit RPG. I’m also open to similar sites that are more stable. Habit RPG tries really hard with good fundamentals but it doesn’t work reliably in Internet Explorer or Firefox. I’m aware that they’re rewriting the site but I’m trying to change things now and I suspect that using “Habit RPG is down, why bother today?” as an excuse isn’t a good idea.
I haven’t tried it, but dailies are set by default to be active every day of the week; you might be able to unselect all the days.
Is there any reason not to just delete the tasks that aren’t working for you, though? It seems like if the task isn’t something you actually want/need to do in the immediate future, it’s more of a goal than a task.
I’m reluctant to delete things when it was so hard to get the items into HabitRPG to begin with due to the site’s habit of ignoring user input and dying.
That being said, I ended up doing exactly what you suggested because there is no way to pause things. At this moment, HabitRPG’s developers have posted on Tumblr reporting theirp rogress so I’m still using the site via a third party Android application that’s been much more reliable than the website.
