Kill lioness


Due to a huge popular demand, we decided to implement an option to Kill a lioness, under the Chase option. It will let you to murder her for a karma drop, instead of chasing off to the wild. She won't be added to dynasty, just permanently removed from pride. Remember that nursing cubs will die with her.
Chased lionesses might be found as NCL's. Killed lioness is gone from the server.
Killing is a very brutal move, that requires some struggle with the lioness. It will drain your energy by 5.

*edit* Before you call killing lions selfish, please REMEMBER that 2-3 months ago, chasing lionesses "killed" them. Chasing into wild is a new feature, "killing" lions was working on Lioden for 2-3 years and nobody called it selfish. We just call it Kill now, to separate from Chase.


Updates


~ You have an option to preview private messages first before sending!
~ 14+ Lionesses that are too old to breed no longer will display Heat status.

Raffle Lioness


Good lord, Tamboo (#39640)! You seem to have the biggest chest this raffle lioness preferred snuggle into!
Next lioness is waiting in the Special Lioness area in Explore or in NEWS section under the news post list.

Little Hints


1. We'll be working on the event updates during upcoming days! Whenever we're ready to launch, we'll post news. To those asking, this is how you donate carcasses to the pit:

And we already have posts about people collecting lions to kill them. Soon we'll get the "take these cubs or i'll slaughter them" posts.

I'm sorry, but that's just not right, especially when there are VIABLE OPTIONS to rename it so that people don't get suckered into buying cubs and we don't have a bunch of guilt trip posts.

I personally believe it should NOT have been released until the positive karma option was released as well. They should have been released together.

Personally, I really like the updates here. How ever, it seems unfair to me that the kill option was given so early. Not because I don't want to see lions dying (come on, every male you chase dies), but because the option to grant good karma wasn't given at the same time. I know that wasn't the intention, but it gives players who want bad karma an unfair advantage. That's really the only complaint I can make about this. I don't mind that it's being done, I just feel both things should've been done at the same time.

Could a note about not begging be added?

Because there are already a bunch of posts trying to ask for free lions so they can kill them. I really don't care about the "death" of pixels, but it's begging, plain and simple because they want free stuff to build their karma.

If it's not right to go "Please buy my lions" than it shouldn't be right to "give me free lions to protect your karma" either.

I have some little questions. Maybe I didn't understood well, but will the newly chased lionesses be found as NCL from the account who chased them, or for any player ? Will they have the same age/stats/level as when they were chased ? Will there only be one "copy" of the NCL wich can be claimed by a sungle player, or can two players have the same NCL ?

I'm sorry, English is not my first language, thank you if you can help ! :)

I personnally don't like the killing option, but I understand that evil lions will love it.

@Shikoku - Chased lionesses may be found by any player. :) Age and looks stay, but lineage, stats (and I think level?) get reset. Pretty sure there are no "copies", so only one person can claim.

Also, though I wasn't here 2-3 months ago, if I understand it correctly, the option was still called chase?

Morally, for a lot of people, there is a difference between, say, setting pixels aside (what the old chasing did), and actually choosing to murder something.

If what I understand is correct, there wasn't anything to say that the old lionesses had to "die"? It was still just a chase option?

The player would feel free to decide that the lioness went off and found a new lion and was very happy, blah blah happy backstory.

I don't think it's fair at ALL to compare that to actually having knowledge of killing something. Why wouldn't that make some people uncomfortable?

[Again, I'm sorry if this isn't how it used to work, but that's how it's been explained to me]

The Shikoku@ Chased lionesses can be found by anyone.

They will have the same everything, excluding stats and heritage. If they had cubs, it won't be listed that they did, and they will not have known parents. Stats are re-set to a NCL's stats, so roughly 20 stats total.

To my knowledge, it is a single lioness, not copied.

Loving the new updates Xy :)

I honestly don't understand why people are getting sensitive about this new killing feature. Before chased lionesses were found in explore, they were removed when chased. Same thing. They're fake lions in a computer game I don't see how you can get sensitive about this, especially since this will help lower the amount of lionesses in the game; there's thousands. In real life cubs are killed and usually eaten all the time by their pride king or mothers, and lionesses get outcasted and neglected, sometimes killed. Sorry for stating my opinion but it's just odd how people can get sensitive over computer lions x_x

Kuma: How do you know someone on here doesn't hold these beliefs?

I know they're mostly to do with eating animals vs killing them, but some of those religions frown upon killing animals unnecessarily very heavily.

How do you know it isn't literally against someone's religion/morals to kill even pixel lions?

As I said before, there is a DIFFERENCE between setting pixels aside, "chasing" a lioness away and MURDERING something.

There are posts now with descriptions of how the kings are going to kill lionesses. How is that appropriate? How is that being "too sensitive" if one doesn't want to see descriptions of lion's throats being slit open?

Oh good! Now an option I have to use for Lionesses that are too old to breed and just really wasting space in my den. I didn't want to be a meanie weanie poohead and chase them. :c I've gotten my fair share of older lionesses from the newest chase option. xD
