Unlimited dogs in Novice Kennel, if linked to a sponsor?

itsjustheidy · November 2010

I vaguely read over the titles of topics/posts and didn't notice this anywhere... But i think it would be awesome if players that owned sponsor kennels could house unlimited dogs in their novice accounts... this would make organizing alot easier, and keep the number of accounts on vp down. i know its like 10 accounts per sponsor or something along those lines, and even with that many my novice accounts are filled to the max with 20 dogs (thanks rescue account!!). Im not exactly sure how easy or difficult it would be to code if it was elected to be added to the game, but i was thinking maybe the novices would have to be linked to their sponsor account, or something along those lines? Anyone have anything to say about this?

I dont know about this. Any sponsor could link novices just so regular novices could share in a sponsor benefit.

yea i thought about that, but maybe when linking they'd have to use their email address and not just log in, so both accounts would have to have them same.. and if players were linking to kennels that werent there own (like youre saying could happen) then there'd be a possible ban, etc

I like this idea. Im getting tired of having to get rid of dog to make room in my novices

This is what boarding kennels are for

not completely.. boarding kennels, yes, hold dogs and you dont really need to take turns or whatever... but you cant organize lines, colors, breeds, etc in a single kennel

Implementing this would make boarding kennels redundant, as in my experience, sponsors board the most dogs. As for organising? One could argue that you can't organise dogs in multiple kennels anyway. Group them yes (ie. colours in this kennel, Poodles in another, etc), but not sort them into an organised list within the kennel (ie. first generation, second generation, etc), not without the use of outside records (Excel, or a Word document for example).

I like this idea, and I know I'd board dogs just as much if this was implemented as I do now.

Grouping is a form of organizing, and by organizing i meant just that; breeds.. I use my novice kennels now to house dogs im using in lines.. I dont need them in a specific order, thats what the search by age/for sale/not forsale/ etc is for.. but when i have a rescue with 7k dogs, a boarding kennel with 2k+ dogs, its nice having novices to hold all the GSDs in my line, or all the Bavarian Mountain Dogs in my line, etc etc etc... without having them scattered throughout all my other kennels

Howdy, Stranger!
