    I loved pets in WoW I collected them all the time and spent a ton of time collecting the rare ones. Even if there couldn't be wolfs or cats maybe we could do like PvE pets or something like that. Something that you would have to work for. Like let's just say kill 1,000 zombies and get a baby zombie pet? Kill 1,000 chickens to get a baby chicken pet? Etc. This would bring something into the game that people can work for along with McMMo. Not to mention we could sell some pets as donator pets such as like a baby pigmen or something for 10-20 Usd? This could add something to do, something to get new players to join, and get money for the server!

    Maybe we could even train them and take care of them? Possibly battle them with our friends?

    well heres the issue with that. You're proposing we either find a mod that could be sliced up for parts then also integrate another system which aloud for one item to return to backpack when the other was spawned. Now I don't think there would be too much lag for the ocelots if there were one only out at a time. THey can also consider a texture downgrade where server side down the bitrate of ocelot then as long as server textures were on FPS lag wouldnt be an issue. The coding however could make the server run slower which Im sure is what he meant by lag.

    Not exactly a good idea in my mind.

    The way I see things is, horses are daily being added into the main world.
    Not very many mind you, but every day a few horse eggs are going into the economy.


    After a while that's going to pile up. There will eventually be tons of horses.

    Although, horses are being brought out of the economy too. Plenty of chances, horse dying, eggs being lost, eggs being used in the wrong world, ect ect ect, but the thing is, will the loss or horses offset the bringing in of horses.

    In 2 months will there be more or less horses in the game then now? Most likely, a ton more.
    Now in assuming that the horses are never going to die, eggs are never going to get lost, always going to be spawned, this won't be a problem til a long way down the road. But as more horses spawn in, the higher the chance of losing one.

    But adding wolves and cats into the main world is not a good idea. Having a price tag at all is not a good idea. It brings the possibility of an unlimited amount.

    Even if i had unlimited money, I couldn't get unlimited horses. It would take a while. But with unlimited money, i can get unlimited pets. Now yes, no one has unlimited money. So if we awarded wolf eggs or ocelot eggs with voting, it would cause overpopulation a lot sooner.

    As for allowing them to battle, that's just a big no. Adding a "mod" to the server would remove 90% of the players who didn't know how/didn't want to get the mod ect. That's why you get a plug-in. I doubt there are any plug-ins to allow pet battles. If the dev's wrote one themselves it would take a very long time, and not really be worth it with other better things to work on.

    Overall, no, I don't really like this idea, not a good one.

    I never said anything about selling horses I would never want them to be sold because they would flood the server this is about pets such as a wolf or ocelot

    By the way i'd say the average player balance is i'd guess 50k lets just say (hard to guess cause I myself own a ton more then that) if we priced the eggs at 50k there won't be many at all with the maximum of 1 per person.

    I never said anything about selling horses either.

    And either way, adding dogs and cats will make the huge mainworld lag problem happen sooner, I'm still against this idea.

    Is there a limit on how many bumps you can have on one post?
