what was old maximum allowed in stables and what is new limit please? .....and does the fix on the blue red thing mean once you go red you never again be blue?....

[Derrick]

The stable limits are based on your animal taming and animal lore skills. The limits are in the area of 7 to 10. I don't have the exact calculation in front of me. We'll eventually be changing the system to be more era accurate which will stable your animals in a particular stable rather than have a "global" stable like the bank.

The blue/red thing was a problem for players who had exactly 5 murder counts and would appear to be blue for a period of time while they were working off that last count. The time of decay or their "true" status was not affected, only the appearance of being blue when they really should have been red.
