I have to wonder why they even bothered to put breeding limits. I'm trying to be positive but this is one thing I honestly don't like. There is no 'look at the bright side' moment on this. Okay fine they put breeding limits, at least add something in the store that's cheap and will reset the limits. Maybe something in Feez. It would help both economy and us as players to have fun breeding.

I think the breeding limits are a means to control the pony population & save the serves from being overloaded with tons of ponies people don't really use. I have hundreds of ponies I've not found time to use, but want to keep in case eventually I will use them. Do, I really need to keep hording them, no. Because the chances of using them are very small, which makes them dead weight to the servers. Dead weight on serves fills them quickly & slows down the space needed to run the game... so it's killer in a way.

I agree the limits are very daunting, but the change is pretty new. Best thing we can do is keep prompting the Suggestions & feedback section for a change on this.

& the pony limit is different for everyone based on what amount they had at change over. Seems everyone gets about 200-250 more ponies than they had in V1 as a limit. I have no idea what the limit starts at for new accounts, but then amounts are always limited to money available.

Maybe a little to their more favorite stallions. I will probably keep all breedings with my starter now until I understand the breeding abilities more fully, but with 30 times to breed a stallion to every 20 of a mare does give a little bit incentive to let some breedings go out to others if asked for.

So what if all our ponies have been done breeding as in their limit was topped? What are we supposed to do then? I know the game only just started and we should wait a while before jumping to conclusions but one has to wonder...

I think it would be up to the player what they do with the ponies maxed for breeding. We can still keep them for decorating & stuff. Or as I'm trying to point out in the first post, some will be release because the player no longer needs them. Which I think sends them to the BM for others to buy or have them eventually "go traveling" if no one buys them.

Thing is a point will come where there are many to find on the BM if they go there. We really need to know what we are purchasing before we make that buy. Otherwise we will be spending our money getting things we cannot use.

I like to breed for inheritance, more so now with the glitches gone and I would like to keep my ponies the way they look so my suggestion is to limits on the breeding. I also want to be able to breed more than 10 a week.

At this point I log in to feed and brush my ponies, to the quest for the day which in total takes about 1 minute. Is there anything else we can do at this point? Traiting besides.

This is direct from the tutorial we all did.

Visit the Green Pasture Land: You’ve just acquired a Flower Crown that will allow you to adopt one of the ponies gambling around the Green Pastureland. Green Pastureland is where ponies go when they leave a farm. They stay there some time before they leave to go and travel around the valley seeking adventure.

That so many are there now is because the V1 ponies that where in the market probably carried over & they stay longer so we are not seeing them gone after roll over. They will go away eventually though & give just a few ponies to the BM unless we add more. SO, players are still supplying the BM, we just don't have to supply it daily.

Maybe it's because of the limits, but I had expectant ponies in both my herds before transfering, and then once my accounts were ported, those expecting ponies were no longer expecting.  I've heard people say that some marriages didn't transfer properly, either.  What I want to know is if there's no way to refresh the breeding limit on a mare or stallion, then what's the point in allowing marriages?  The stallion will still have 10 breeding points left when his mate has run out.  I never really played with the marriages on V1, myself, the one time I did, the other player left and thus I was left with a mare I had wanted to breed and couldn't, now that we're allowed to marry them in our own herds, I jumped on the chance to do so with a couple of my celestials, as I'm still trying to open their section on the BM.  After reading this thread, though, I'm wondering if it was a good idea?  I guess time will tell.

Oh, ok.
