There's nothing wrong with HeroHorse being chosen to win what she has. It's also unfair for you to claim that it's not fair that she won them because in the end it's not really up to you, but the artists to choose who's form they deem suitable. It's the same for every other adoptable, there's only one winner so not everyone can win the horse. I don't mean to pry but this really just got under my skin since you honestly have no control over who the artist chooses to win the horse, therefore you have no reason to complain.

I also agree with Razz.


Also....most of the recent ones are either breedings or imports...which users ordered....not won...so um....

I mean you should at least give others a chance, no?
All the recent ones that I clicked are always HeroHorse being the winner.
I just think that it's very unfair to others who participated

Um, yes, basically what others said ^^'

We haven't had many adoptions recently anyways, so I'm not sure where exactly you're getting that from... If you're talking about rescues, they're first come, first serve, so I don't really have any control over who gets which horse, and that's all written on the information for adoptions and often on the rescue horses' pages themselves. Additionally, these are contests, not charities -- I don't check how many horses each entrant has to determine whether they are deserving of the horse nor do I lean towards giving horses to particular users. If a user wins a lot of horses from naming/writing/drawing competitions, it's probably because said user is good at naming/writing/drawing horses. That's really it -- I put any and all acquaintances and former meetings aside for judging, whether they were good or bad. I don't find it fair to give special priority to particular users, so that is absolutely not happening here. HeroHorse and I do not know each other in real life, either, and we had never interacted before this sim -- same before every other user on here, actually. In short, no, she is not being given special treatment nor do I plan to give anyone special treatment for any reason -- whether it be that they have fewer horses, have the same morals/values as me, have chatted with me before, anything. I don't favor users, and that's the end of it. c:

As Mrs. M pointed out, the majority of horses recently have been imports, and there was no competition for them; one can literally buy an import whenever, so long as it isn't within two weeks of another import. I appreciate your concern for the members of this sim, but I can assure you that there is no need for it ^^

In the future, I would appreciate it if you would PM me directly if you must include names in order to prevent any embarrassment to the user(s) involved. If it's a general complaint, you are welcome to post it either here or on the discussion thread (as well as via PM), but if it directly involves a user, I'd rather not discuss it on a public forum. Thank you!

Piaffles!!!!! Nice to see you again!
Mate this will help with your question!:)

All right, guys! I decided I won't do an event just yet, even though I will be starting the thoroughbred one soon enough ^^ Instead, I decided to open up a few feature... Imports!

Imports are designed to get more horses into the game so that breeds can prosper versus sit around waiting for me to make that one odd breed a second horse so they can at least have offspring ^^ Certain breeds may not be imported -- RVEC is loosely based in the U.S., so it would be weird for me to import an appaloosa or a paint or a quarter horse, but if you can find something about a particularly impressive breeder in Canada, for example, I might let you import one c: (The thing is that the U.S. really isn't a huge exporter of breeds... There are a few exceptions, but we mostly just import nice horses and breed them to another imported horse and hope the baby's nice enough to earn us some recognition xD) So! I'll look into that, but basically any breed you import should be fairly common in countries outside of the U.S. c: You cannot choose any characteristics for the horse -- coat, height, markings, etc. except for the breed, gender, and discipline (it will have strong stats in those areas, but not necessarily the highest stats), and each import costs 8,500c. If you decide you don't like the horse, you may either keep it and sell it or get a refund of 5,000c and the horse will go up for adoption. ^^ You may only receive one imported horse every two weeks so that I can keep this manageable. So! If you're interested, please submit the form below -- I'll have the money earned from the shows up in a bit, so you can keep that in mind when ordering one c:
