Dino transfers are open to all servers except for genesis. Character transfers are pen for all transfers. Having item transfers could ruin the experience of some servers compared to others. for example, with how easy tek/element is to get on Extinction (and to an extent aberration) would slow down the progression on say, Island or even Ragnarok. Even transfering saddles that you could have, could take some of the grind out of having to do the caves on one map or the other not needed, and in turn, that map almost not worth having around.

AC2 does not require a server restart for every update though. Removing any Dino can be done during the night/when there is little/no activity on the server to have to work around. Some mods, like ecos (lol) require a server update each time the mod is updated. There is also the total amount of mods that you need to consider as well. Right now, some people call get on Rag in 4 min, others take half an hour+. We want to pop a both current and new. So you also need to find the balance there as well since when events are going on 1-3 mods are added for them as well.

Are we already forgetting about the poor Tapas? Making them breedable will not make people more willing to take them into a boss battle. Most players are too afraid to take even their old breeding stock into boss battles to help out as it is. I don't think/feel like adding a mod to make a specific dino/creature is beneficial for the the overall health of any server. Once all is said and done, you would end up witha server with 20+ mods where when one updates, it could cause others to break, due to conflicts or the server could just crash once you start adding xyz to abc. At the very least, it could be like the ecos mods, when they get an update (which is not often thankfully now) the server might have to be restarted just so people can join the server, just so one creature can be bred.

I don't feel like it takes up much of the spawn table with where and how few of them spawn. The more... interesting aspect of them is their taming mechanic, they're nothiung special health wise or not op or real strong like a lot of the ac2 dinos, but their model is acually really well put together unlike the Tarbos evem.
