So, @Ash (#145189) and I have come up with an idea for studding. Well, technically two ideas.

These are the ideas:

You would be able to put a player's ID in a section in Studding, and you would be 'whitelisting' them. That means if they requested Studding from you, they would not be charged. This would be great if you've decided to give friends or other players (for whatever reason) free breedings, and would save the hassle of either refunding them or going through traditional breedings.

The other side of the coin would be blacklisting. All Studders have their own rules, and with quite a few that I have seen, the punishment for breaking those rules is being banned. That would be another section in Studding, where you enter the ID of blacklisted players.

I was thinking both blacklisted and whitelisted players would have their own unique studding message. For example:

(Whitelisted) Player #(number) has send you a breeding request! However, they are whitelisted and if you choose to breed with their lioness you will not be paid! This is the lioness(link), and you can accept/reject here(link)!

(Blacklisted) Player #(number) has send you a breeding request! However, they are blacklisted and that means they could have broken your studding rules in the past! This is the lioness(link) and you can accept/reject here(link)!

I get that this sort of thing might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I still feel that it would be useful for players that want to use it.

If a no, why? I'd love to hear your feedback!

If a yes, an explanation and/or constructive criticism is also welcome! I'd be interested to know what people like the most about this idea.



This suggestion has 381 supports and 10 NO supports.

Maybe blacklisted player wouldn't be able to send any more stud requests to that lion unless they are removed from the list (IE: it appears as if studdings are closed), since if someone blacklisted them I doubt they would still want to give out studdings to them.

It'd be great if you could also set a limited of fertility to whitelisted players, for instance, I might not want to give a free stud to a 1% lioness but would be happy to do so for a 10% lioness. But this might be a bit complicated.

Edit: The option to pay with certain items would also be super nice!! But that doesn't have much to do with this thread

I actually joined in June 2018. Once I got the hang of studding, I couldn't figure out why there wasn't already a better system in place for people who are allowed free studding to certain kings, for whatever reason. Since playing, I've mostly only been giving friends free studdings and have had to constantly return their beetles to them, but I'm going to be kinging a nicely stated king where a good sum of people were rewarded a minimum of three free breedings to him just for participating. The question that's complicated the idea for me is, what if the players who I've promised free breedings to do not have the currency to pay for the breeding and aren't interested in traditional breedings? What a complicated mess to trust in sending them the funds to stud my king when they're ready. And what about those that allow payment in decors or other items for those who can't afford the stud fee in beetles?

Likewise, I do like the other side of the coin. Not only are you giving yourself an option to be safe and keep from repeating issues you've had in the past with any particular member who has broken your rules, you are given the chance to choose whether you want to accept the stud request anyway. You can choose to forgive, or if you've forgotten to take someone off your blacklist, they aren't strictly banned and can still send you a request even if you've forgotten. I've yet to really feel the need to blacklist anyone from studding to my king, so I'm sure someone else out there may have a better view or opinion on the blacklist side of it.

I do very much like this idea.

@Dinocanid
The idea with a message still popping up is in case something happened, such as you forgot to remove a player from the blacklist, or perhaps it's been a while and you're willing to forgive.

@Manta Ray [Korea] [Cherry Pie]
Great ideas! I'll add them in a moment.

@Mika
Good to know that this blacklist/whitelist idea would be helpful for you!

I mean, I don't really have that much experience with studding, but I see no downs to this idea! Support!

It would also be really nice to be able to stud for free between your main and your side account. Support!

@Hyena
Great point! In theory, you'd be able to whitelist your side account.

@TylerHoesph


@Ash
Yep, I remembered to give you a mention!

Maybe there could be an option for whilelisted players to only be charged 50% the original price, as well as having free studdings? something like that would make half-off clan discounts easier to manage.
