Re: Questions on Madexx
Ghostcrawler made this comment about stable slots:
Q: We hunters want to collect and keep more friends. Why wont you allow us to keep more pets in stables?
A: More stable slots would be fine to a point. Don’t want hunters feeling like they should tame evey pet they see. Taming should be a decision. There are plenty of “collect all” achievements. Hunters aren’t crazy cat hoarding ladies.

Re: Questions on Madexx
More would be nice but I also see the point of too many. With the current number you can easily hit the cap on unique looking pets and still want for more. Spirit beasts alone are something like 7-8 unique looks and it's only for one spec of three. I've dropped a number of the cat variations to make room for new models but I'd like more space so I wouldn't have to sacrifice too much. Maybe a bump to 35 or maybe 40 would be sufficient.

In all seriousness, he has a point. It may not be something that we're all happy about all the time, but it does tend to keep our stables naturally pruned.

Well, I would be content with just 100 stable slots ( =P ), but you know if they gave us 100 slots we would all complain that there were 105 pets we wanted to tame.

Meh yeah but still. I'd like it to be 30 or 40. After that, I'd need no more.Kalliope wrote:*giggles quietly* I read that quote and immediately thought "Ghostcrawler clearly doesn't lurk the Petopia forums!"Vephriel wrote:Ghostcrawler made this comment about stable slots:Q: We hunters want to collect and keep more friends.

Re: Questions on Madexx
Yeah. Definitely 35 to 40. Forty seems a little much, but 35 seems perfect.Bristlenose wrote:More would be nice but I also see the point of too many.

Re: Questions on Madexx
In fairness, new families were added after that, so it makes sense that this would come up again.Wykea wrote:Folks said that about 25 as well.Jessibelle wrote:Meh yeah but still. I'd like it to be 30 or 40. After that, I'd need no more.
I personally can make do with the 25, but it does get cramped sometimes.

Re: Questions on Madexx
IMO this is VERY stupid answer, they allow us to collect hundreds of mounts and non-combat pets and it's ok for them, but more hunters' pets than we have now will transform us to "crazy cat hoarding ladies". I do not see a logic.Vephriel wrote:Ghostcrawler made this comment about stable slots:Q: We hunters want to collect and keep more friends. Why wont you allow us to keep more pets in stables?

Yeah well, just because some people think 25 was perfect doesn't mean there were others that agreed! Its not always the same people going "25 is perfect" "wait no 30 is perfect" "wait no 40 is perfect" etc.
Its like people saying the population is never happy when "you whine for one thing then whine when you get it" its different groups of people voicing opinions on the same matter.

Plus as Kalli said, with the introduction of new species, skins and old things being made tameable...25 seems piddly! Especially when we can cover a wide range of buffs now. Makes it harder to keep what you want and get things for buffs as well.
