Paid Barn Expansions
I'm not sure why there's horse limits, but I know I would personally like the option to expand beyond 211 (I hate that uneven number. I really do XD). I know of three sites with paid expansion features: E-R, which charges $25 for an "expansion key" and then extra spaces are purchased with game currency; HAJINC which charges $5 for 15 stalls, $9.50 for 30 stalls, $19.50 for 60 stalls, 28.50 for 90 stalls, 37.50 for 120 stalls, 65.95 for 210 stalls, and 300.00 for 1000 stalls, as well as pastures for 7.50/10ac, 15.00/30ac, 30.00/60ac and 50.00/100ac; and lastly HEE which charges 10.00/25 stalls, 15.00/50 stalls, 30.00/100 stalls, and lets you purchase with game currency as well (100k, 175k, and 300k respectively). HWO wouldn't charge cash for stalls/pastures because those are purchased via the store, but it could charge for more horse spaces. I know you mentioned potentially having multiple farms attached to one account, which would also be a good solution, but it seemed like that was a far away plan.

Re: Paid Barn Expansions
The multiple farms feature wouldn't increase the number of horses you can own, it would only give you more places to keep those horses and when you 'advance day' it would only affect whichever is your active farm. So you could keep breeding horses in one farm and horses in training on another, as an example.
I'll think about the possibility of paid expansions. I'm on my tablet so typing is harder but basically I dont want to undermine the player skills feature and there is also server performance to consider. Updating more than 200 records at once does have an impact to be taken in to consideration.

Re: Paid Barn Expansions
Would it be possible for further expansions to be integrated into the player skills feature? As in, once you complete the highest level of Horse Management, you unlock the ability to buy more horse spaces, up to a point? Because I definitely don't want to bypass that aspect of the game, I just want to expand beyond it. It may dabble in pay-to-win territory, but I imagine it as costing X amount of PT for additional stalls, which would make it accessible to everyone to some degree. The typical rates in the above games seems to be about 3 stalls per dollar, and the average rate for PT is 128PT/dollar, so maybe set the price at 40-50 PT per extra stall, maybe with a small discount for larger bundles like with the PT purchases.

Re: Paid Barn Expansions
Still want this. Thinking 50PT/stall and a 10% discount for bundles of 100 stalls would be reasonable.

Re: Paid Barn Expansions
+1 to 25 stalls = 50PT/stall
+26 to 75 stalls = 45PT/stall
+76 to 150 stalls = 40PT/stall
+26 to 75 stalls = 45PT/stall
+76 to 150 stalls = 40PT/stall

*BIG SIGH*
I just wish we'd see the improvements which have been promised but not yet delivered, never mind future possibilities.
If wishes were horses ...
