Hello!

I recently put in a heat request/reverse studding request on a lioness. I understand the initial announcement post for heat requests said that lionesses with active requests can't be submitted to the TC, but this lioness was put up for trade in TC and ended up changing hands to new owners.

I was not notified of this at all; I had all the currency and items I had submitted for the heat request stuck in limbo and I am not even sure if the new owner was able to see the request. Neither they nor the original owner rejected the request even though the lioness changed owners and the new owners informed me they would not be selling heats for that lioness. [EDIT: There was in fact an error with the site! See the update at the bottom for more information. They could see that there were requests but not the requests themselves.] I had effectively put several items and 40 in limbo for a month+ and would have never been made aware that the lioness had changed owners.

My suggestion is this:

A: You are not allowed to transfer lions with pending heat requests. You must either go in and decline all before sending them or the game will not allow it.

B: You simply receive a message notifying you the lioness has new owners. The lioness is linked in the message.

or

C: When a lioness transfers owners, all requests are declined and a message is attached notifying those who requested that it was declined due to changing hands. The lioness can be linked so that you can see if the new owners will accept heat requests. Even if the lioness isn't linked, this will prevent any confusion with those who requested or the initial owner.

While I do not fault the new owners for not taking heat requests, I would have been left in the dark entirely had I not checked. This seems like a good anti-frustration feature for anybody who does put in heat requests on high value lionesses. This could potentially help avoid issues for if a lioness is transferred to a player who has you blocked or that you have blocked, as well.

Please let me know below if you have any suggestions or why you disagree!

Update!
The new owners reached out and explained more of what happened to me! Apparently the lioness was put on TC and they could see she had requests but couldn't see the requests themselves; after I rescinded mine it still showed and the issue had to be fixed via mod box. Either way, I believe this feature could help prevent this issue in the future or keep everyone up to date!
