It's not fair to players standing stallions where we have to compete with other players who decide to stand a superstar stallion for $1. It's already hard enough to get mares for good stallions that are standing at their minimums because people would rather pay 3-4x more for a superstar stallion. Which is where foal limits come in. Though you can now buy unlimited foal slots for your stallion, so foal limits are a thing of the past.Rocki Ryoliza wrote: ↑3 years ago"However, it is the official position of SIMHorseRacing.com that you are allowed to handle your stallions however you want"The Steward wrote: ↑3 years agoDo you have any ideas on how to make people police themselves fee wise, so that superstar stallions can't have 400 foals at $1?Carole Hanson wrote: ↑3 years ago Any thoughts on the topic of this thread from The Steward? Any temptation at all to at least change the minimal fee thing?
I would love to have the ability to petition the SIM to stand stallions for a lower fee than the minimum. But that would add a bunch of extra work for The Stew and Admin as that would likely have to be done by hand.
Another possible solution would be that if a stallion has less than 50% of possible foals bred when they hit 10 (12?), the stud fee minimum goes away? Or maybe after a certain number of years standing?
