Re: Reserving a horse

Post by Totina »

May I just ask, what price do you set on your horses when selling them? If the price is very low and the horse is really good then the risk of them being snatched by another player is much higher. If you have the possibility (money) to set a somewhat high price on the horses that would discourage other players from buying the horse. If you really need to set the price very low then you should time your transfer very carefully and not letting the horse be up for sale for more than a few seconds if possible.

Hey, I really have fallen in love with the mare that they are all talking about, and I'm wondering if you would be willing to sell on of them too me? Thanks

Well,when I transfer from one account to another,I'll put the horse up for about 20k to 50k.There is less risk then.But when I'm selling to other people I put on the agreed price,which is very low.This is why they always get snapped up.I also see if their online first and I will then post them.

Thank you so much! Right now, I don't have enough room, but if it helps your breeding program, I could take her.

This is nonsense. There are no rules saying that horses in the market are fair game. There are literally NO rules written. Nice try though.

You chose to ignore that the horse was marked as reserved for someone and bought it anyway. There is nothing "fair and square" about that. Nice try though.

Really tired of seeing "I'm new here" used as an excuse for being rude and inept when it comes to reading ads and literally everything else. Do we need some sort of reading competency test for new members...?
Creepin wrote: No admin set official rules state that I was not to buy the horse, you might not like my decision but the harassment that you're putting towards me most likely is.
Not trying to speak for boss, but I would personally hope that a modicum of common sense and maturity would keep people from buying horses that are obviously marked as for someone else, therefore eliminating the need for rules instructing players to not be a d*ck...?
