Limited interactive links become unlimited if they were shown in history because the history checkbox doesn't clear itself after limit is reached.
Try the following steps for an interactive link such as Dragcave, Unicreatures, Le Brute
1 Click the Links tab on your profile page
2. Set a limit on an interactive link, and make it visible on Main, History and Dynasty
3. Click Update.
4. Wait until limit is reached, then go back to your links page to check the limited link.
Results after step 4:
Limit = 0 - Good, limit was reached
Main and Dynasty checkboxes are unchecked - Good
History checkbox is still checked - No good because the link becomes unlimited in History after the limit is reached.
Limited noninteractive links like myminicity clear all 3 checkboxes once the limit is reached. Limited links should behave the same way. |

I've read this thread several times now and I still can't understand how an arbitrary 60 member dynasty limit helps anyone in the end.
If there are problems now, how does splintering existing dynasties improve the problem(s) you're trying to solve? Especially since these issues haven't been openly named or discussed among the dynasty leaders or active clickers who bothered to join a dynasty and check the forum? Judging from the various reactions here, that's how it appears to me anyway.
If you think breaking up working dynasties up will mean there will be more leaders for smaller dynasties I think you'll be sadly disappointed, because leaders appear only when they're needed and there are enough new people to support a healthy new dynasty, not by fiat. Also, a new dynasty will grow only when like-minded people coalesce into a community.While it's true that there is a lot of work leaders do that many regular members don't see (or care to know) that's needed to maintain and grow the dynasty, once a dynasty becomes established, regular members as a whole begin to hold the community together too, because they've found their home. So, how does removing members from their dynasties help other dynasties grow or become stronger even if the evicted members move over? That's a whole lot of disruption and frustration. I can't speak for others, but this site would become much less appealing if I was forced out of RMV. I make the time to come here because I like the people there. I keep my average up the best I can out of loyalty and because of the hard work and time everyone has invested into growing the dynasty since I joined back when it was in 5th or 6th place.
Also, I don't have to tell any Admin or emp/1st that there's even more work involved in attracting dedicated members, and working with other leaders to form good alliances. Sometimes it's so much {thankless) work that it's hard to justify the time and effort at times until you see how far you and your community has come, so why reward all this hard work and dedication by forcing them to choose who stays or leaves?
If you want stronger dynasties, let the people who have become successful in growing their dynasty mentor the newer emps/1sts. I've read and been told that it's been done in the past. RMV and some of the groups that came after are proof that larger dynasties do help incubate new ones and do remember the help they got when they were not so big themselves.
Now, if you're a smaller or medium dynasty who is having trouble keeping or attracting alliances it might not be because you are smaller but because you both need to work together better. Do your members keep your links hidden? Do you remember to keep rivalries friendly with your allies? Your allies remember when you help one of their own members just as you would your own.
Finally, like in any extended family there are misunderstandings that crop up from time to time. If you think everything is fine otherwise, maybe it's time to talk to your allies to clear the air. After you talk to your allies, take a look to see if your own crew has a clear sense of what you want them to do and welcome any constructive criticism from them.
Same goes for Admin / Dynasty relations.
Edit:
How about some Admin carrot to get all those pages and pages of non-dynasty members to join? |

I never thought I'd miss watching that little bug crawling around while I'm waiting for the profile page to load. |

I also want to put in a word for minh-phuoc. She has been a fine member of RMV in all the time I've been there. She's always been there to encourage and help out the team. I could have made the same mistake too, if I didn't come here with a good understanding of what an IP address is, how it identifies you on the internet, and other technical details that would would make many gamers eyes glaze over because that's Just Too Much Information (TMI) for them. They just want to play their games, and help out their friends. All that internet stuff just takes care of itself.
Even one of our top leaders made a mistake once. You gave her another chance and see how far she's come since then, 2nd to TOP CAT and founding member of a Dynasty. Rebecca is fluent in English, and probably knows her way around the internet, but even she made a mistake. I'm just glad that you let her stay and hope you'll do the same with minh-phuoc, who has, in spite of a language barrier most native English speakers forget is there, become a valued member of the Real Mini Village dynasty.
Thank you for your time
