we have talked about different kinds of breeding restrictions, including how many characters a player can breed and activity requirements. there will be several changes, not just to breeding, that come when we roll out a new version. we completely understand loving random babies - and we LOVE doing stats!! - but we just don't want it to escalate into a breeding SIM game. we like interaction! so there is definitely a lot that we have talked about, and we will definitely talk about your specific suggestions as well.
as far as the magic thing goes, I completely understand. magic would be totally fun to have, and sometimes it does seem like it's only the older players that have it, and I can see how that would be frustrating. but magic is very easily abused, and we've had COUNTLESS complaints - especially during war, and not just this most recent war - about people powerplaying, or otherwise overstepping their bounds, so we are super hesitant to let magic get out from breeding. we like to be a little controlling in that we know certain players and we can be pretty sure that they will or won't abuse it. we've definitely talked about opening up magic for breeding, but I really can't say that's something that's going to be implemented soon.
hope that's a little helpful, and feel free to be like THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT, DUMMY or let me know if you have any more questions
