Just wanted to pop in here to say/add a few things (and hopefully they make sense because I'm typing this during a work break and trying to get it all in)~
Personally, while I understand how difficult it must be for the mods to keep up with the litters and I do agree that changes need to be made, I am against taking away the KS gains from breeding rooms as a solution. KS, for me at least, is hard to come by (and if the Mods are doing something about that, then that's great! But like others have said, we don't know what's in the works just yet), and I roleplay pretty frequently in the regular boards. But even with my roleplays, self and not, it's still hard to earn a substantial amount of KS from that alone, as it takes a lot of time. During the summer I can spend all day here replying to roleplays and earning KS, but once I head back to school that's definitely going to slow down (and as it was mentioned here before) some people don't even get a 'summer break' anymore. And with new awesome features that the Mods have made, such as the Brewery, or Seasonal Specialties, or the Tiger Scintilla, or even just the Advertise section, I always try to earn as much KS as I can (and spend it sparingly) so I can afford to utilize these features.
I love breeding, and I love this new breeding system. I try and do it frequently, because I remember the days where only like two rooms were available like every five months and I never got to breed because of that. And breeding is the only way that I would have ever gotten my first and only Paragon, the only way I'll be able to get more Paragon without having to give up pets I love or real money, or the majority of my Kuhnas, and all the plot babies that I need. But realistically, if breeding starts costing 40 or 60KS, plus potions I might need to do so, I don't see myself breeding that much anymore. Even now when I breed, I don't even usually get that KS back for months to follow, it's not like an overnight process. And while breeding is not the only reason I'm here, as I said I have multiple RPs going on, it is a feature that has a lot of practical uses that I really love about Evelon, and one that distinguishes it from most other roleplaying sites.
That being said. I've been reading a lot about the tokens, but at this point there are so many ideas that have been bouncing around it's hard to see what exactly the system might look like, but if I can get a grip on what it would entail then I'll be sure to comment. And for now, if anything, I'd prefer to just cut the slots. But I wanted to put my support for the idea that I don't think gains should be taken away. <3
I know you
I walked with you once upon a dream
I know you
That look in your eyes is so familiar,
a gleam...
