I'm probably going to be beat for posting something dumb, but here it goes

When I was a newbie, I saw things like "CHEAPEST DWARF ON THE MARKET!!!" Or "ICE FOR 2 GB!!"

And I would think "wow what a deal!" And blow all my hard earned currency on these 14 year old lions. I then would be very upset to find them dead a few days later.

Hear me out, a banner when you click on a trade for an elderly or frozen lion warning that that lion can not be bred ect. It will help with falling for tricks for "cheapest!" For newbies and maybe even older players.

The banner could be easily removed, by in checking the box in the settings menu.

Suggestions:

"I think a red banner like the "X number of lions will leave your pride because they are starving to death" is a good idea."

"It is a good idea, maybe a simplier thing than banner though - just display age next to a lion in trade listing?

Like:
Lions & Cubs:
Newly Claimed Lioness (#NUMBER), 3 years, 3 months old

That way, it wont get in the way, and wont even need to be toggleable as it'd just be a small addition. But it will display age right up and prevent newbie mistakes"




This suggestion has 75 supports and 0 NO supports.

I suppose the major counterpoint to this would be that you could just check the lion before buying, but often times if it is a good deal it will be snatched up by the time one checks the age. And not all newbies, or even older players, think to check first.

Another point might be something about coding, but older lionesses display a breeding warning anyway, so perhaps it could be connected to that.

Anyway, support. o7


Edit: Really like Mad Hyena's idea.

I think a red banner like the "X number of lions will leave your pride because they are starving to death" is a good idea. I got burned on this once, but never again. Still its a mean and dirty trick that shysters try to pull, they know they are rotten, sadly, some new, un-learned person gets shafted.

Support for Mad Hyena's addition - I think that'd be a great addition - although I do like the base idea, too, I just somewhat prefer Mad Hyena's version.

It also may depend on the users intent for purchasing. If you are looking to breed the lion I can see how this would be very beneficial. However, some people would prefer the older cheaper Tigons for like 50 GB over the younger for 350 GB if they were intending to freeze them.
