Well I think there is a lack of pigs in illarion at the best of times you can have the pigs all to your own, for about five minutes then 2 or 3 other people show up. Then say you use your bow to kill the pigs and someone takes the meat and leather before you can get it, this causes arguments. I suggest more pigs in different places around illarion so that if there are pigs being killed in one place you can go somewhere else and stop all the frantic grabbing of meat and leather. That's just my idea anyway.

If you think finding pigs is hard, try the sheep!  If there were lots of pigs, then it might seem good, but lots of them around = lots of lag (I think...)  Anyways, nobody ever said gathering leather is an easy task.

I'm not talking about flooding Illarion with pigs, all I am saying is that if there were say 3 more in a different area it would be better, and besides 3 more pigs won't cause very much lag at all, if any! And the thing you say about sheep being hard to get to, at least with sheep you dont have to kill it to get its wool whereas with pigs you have to kill them, grab the meat and leather as quickly as possible and then wait for another one to appear.

Actually I think that monsters re-generate much to quickly.  This talk about having to wait for another one to appear is nonsense!  I mean, do you think you can kill a pig in real life then another one is born ready for de-leathering (hehe) in a matter of minutes?  If they were to add more pigs, I would think they should make their timeout longer, just to balance things out.  So would the ham industry pick up?  Nah, not much.
