We need an alternative to Nature Reserving and Killing Lionesses
So one of my biggest issues right now is the dilemma of what to do with potato/ugly NCLs or groupies. For the male adol groupies, easy choice: chase them. They get deleted from the game and don't clog up the tree or the chase pool.
However, the problem comes with adult lionesses. You have three options: chase, nature reserve, or kill.
Chase is the option I usually pick, because it costs no energy (and is karma neutral, though I don't really care about karma). However, this option is really annoying (especially with this month's groupies) because it clogs the chase pool with trash lions that no one wants.
The other two options are also annoying. I refuse to use them because of the energy loss. When you are like me and often have 10 or more NCLs in your pride that you need to get rid of, 5% energy loss per lion quickly adds up. I am not about to spend half or more of an energy bar just getting rid of trash NCLs. I need that energy to get event currency in explore and to breed my lionesses.
I'm making this post mostly to vent about this because it's really frustrating to see people shame others for chasing their potato lionesses instead of killing them when it just makes more sense to chase them (because chasing them is free).
I wish there was an option to just delete lions from the game that didn't have an energy cost.
