before i explain why, i want to state that i have excelsior which means i can always use horses without ever paying for donator, so this is not me being bias or anything. if anything this suggestion hurts me more because i lose one of the privileges i get

horses are pretty important for combat and travel, and it's kinda locked behind players that grinded mcmmo for years and players who pay irl money monthly. i don't think that big of a feature should be excluded to a majority of the playerbase. horses are undoubtedly good in combat and while they aren't as good as they used to be, they're still very strong and a lot of players use them. i don't particularly like the current horse combat and this suggestion would definitely bring a surge of new horse users, but i don't think basic competitive mechanics should be locked behind a paywall or years of grinding. it's not really fair to people who haven't played the server for hours every day for years, or the players that don't have the money to pay for donator every month. it's still possible to use horses, but horses die so u'd have to bring multiple horses to a siege just to fight with them. that doesn't even include pvp siege regions which u have no chance of bringing horses to unless u have a friend with perms to do it for u, which is not reliable. there's a reason why horses are pretty much limited to just donators and excelsiors, and that's because it's just not practical for players without an egging ability to use them. horse travel is probably one of the best forms of transportation, and i feel like it's less of a problem because it's still possible for players without capture eggs to horse travel, but u r still kinda limited with it, and in jungles or oceans it becomes very difficult

i understand ccnet has to make money, and staff don't want to take away donator privileges, but i think allowing all players to use single-use eggs on horses would be a good balance without making donators/excelsiors egging ability useless. reusable eggs are soooo much better, so keeping that to just excelsior/donators would still make the ranks very useful. also i personally use capture eggs for stuff other than horses all the time, so i'm sure others do too. i mean donators/excelsiors didn't always have capture eggs, and the ranks were still good back then. it's just rly not fair to limit this pretty big feature :/
