Welcome to the new Amaretto Breedables Network! How breeders stay connected!!!

Hello Everyone Today I am bringing news of a new group for Amaretto

~Ava’s Amaretto Answers Group~

This group is for information only and is on invite only. This means you do have to message one of the members of staff in order to get invited to the group. If an Officer of the group does not respond please send a notecard to Avalon Crystal titled “Add me to the Group” and be sure to include your FULL SL name in the contents. The following is the group charter:

******THIS GROUP IN NOT FOR SOCIAL CHAT OR FOR POSTING STATS*******

This group is by invite only and is only meant for informative purposes. That means no social chat, posting stats. As owner of this group I will exercise the right to eject anyone who advertises or uses this group for anything besides informative purposes. If you know someone who would like to be a part of this group please im one of the officers 🙂 Lets all have fun and learn from each other! Happy Breeding!!

Breaking rules in this chat will get you kicked out of it so PLEASE follow all rules the charter states. This group has been made because there are some members who would like to see a group for information purposes only. Please do not abuse this or any other group of Amaretto. Sales ads, free give-aways, arguing and constant complaining will get you ejected from groups. We are monitoring all groups remember this please.

We will still have the main group Amaretto Ranch Breedables which will keep you informed of all the important stuff when it happens.  This new group is for QUESTIONS ONLY.  So lets keep the conversation and chatter in there to a minimum please.  We hope this addition group will help ease some of the frustration of trying to get a question answered and not being able to fight your way through the lag in the main group to do so.

We hope you all are enjoying seeing suggestions from the community coming to life.  Remember we do like to hear them from you so if you have any suggestions for future topics I can write on here on the Customer Connection please send me a notecard and maybe next week you will see your topic blogged on!

 

Hello Horse lovers!

I would like to start my blog out by saying that each and everyone of us here at Amaretto appreciate each and every loyal supporter out there. Amaretto would not be where it is today if it wasn’t for you. We at Amaretto try to do all things possible to make everyone happy and content with their horse raising and breeding experiences. Unfortunately, as everyone know, it is virtually impossible to do so. There is always going to be someone who we were unable to please or satisfy, and this does sadden us. We want Amaretto to be an enjoyable experience for all. As Amaretto grows… changes and fixes are inevitable, and for all of you who have stuck by us through the changes, we just want to say you are very respected and appreciated!

With that being said, Amaretto has pride in it’s company and will no longer allow our groups and forums to become a breeding ground for downing, trash talking, or plain out slandering of Amaretto, the individuals who work for Amaretto or Amaretto customers. Constructive criticism is ALWAYS accepted when offered with concern or care but, a line has to be drawn somewhere. If anyone is found in the groups, forums, or support system, trashing talking Amaretto as a company, the individuals that work for Amaretto, or Amaretto customers, it will not be tolerated. The person/persons found to be doing these such actions can and will get their rights to all groups, forums, and the ticket support system revoked, as we deem necessary to stop the issues. The Amaretto owners, developers, and Staff work long, hard hours to try and make this a memorable and fun time for all. Let’s please keep the groups and forums calm and peaceful. The groups and forums are meant to be an informative, enjoyable place for all to come. And please, keep the support system free from negativity and rude nonconstructive comments. Our support system is meant to help individuals with technical issues for the horses and bundles. It makes the CSR’s jobs harder and more time consuming having to shift through the negativity and find the tickets of customers that are truly needing help.

Basically, Amaretto wants horse breeding and raising to be an exciting and fun time. We know a lot of people have left or closed the groups and miss out on important information because of the constant turmoil in the groups and forums. We will be cracking down on the individuals responsible for the ruckus and will not be allowing Amaretto, Amaretto employees, or any other individuals to be belittled or talked down to. Again, the groups, forums, and support system are there to help our customers, to keep our customers informed of Amaretto news, and to allow customers and fellow breeders a place to come and share their positive experiences with the horses.

Thank you again for all who have supported Amaretto. We appreciate each and every one of you!

Until my next post…….

There are a few options to stay informed about Amaretto issues or announcements.  This blog is a great source of information that you can refer back to at any time so I am going to use my blog this week to list out a few of the ways to stay informed and up-to-date.

  • The best and easiest way is to join the Amaretto Ranch Breedables group.  You can join the group by touching any of the group joiner boards at any Amaretto Store location.  Once you are a member of the group, go to group info and make sure the box is checked to allow you to receive Group Notices.  If you get capped on notices a lot you can always go to the notices tab at the top of the info box and look at past notices. As this group has grown larger and larger it can often times be very difficult to keep up with the chat in the chat tab, and asking questions can be hindered by chat lag, so when in doubt be sure to check those past notices.  **Remember** This group is for general this group is for info about the horses & K-9’s NO ADVERTISING OF ANY KIND (including freebies or giveaways)  and CONSTANT ARGUING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED, that is not what this group is for.
  • Also located at all the Amaretto Store locations is a Hippo Group Joiner.  You can join the Hippo group and be informed of all major announcements without taking up a group slot.
  • The Main Amaretto Website located at http://amarettobreedables.com/ is where we put all the big announcements (which are also sent out in notices).

 

These are the 3 easiest way to stay up-to-date and informed about all things Amaretto.  Hope this helps everyone to stay informed.

 

Musing’s from Mal

Friday’s group started out with a bang. In the morning one of our staff members  accidently posted a market space ad in the group which lead to some heavy accusing in the group as the market advertised was the market also owned by the Amaretto Owners. Karrie apologized and the accusations did not stop, which lead to the sending of this notice, which I am posting again here in case you did not receive it  As you know, no ads of selling , or ads of markets are allowed in this group. A lot of people have been making this mistake and unless they do it regularly we forgive. Well one of our staff, that also works for a market place has made a mistake and sent a notice out advertising the market she works for. She apologized several times in open chat, and now I am sending this apology to everyone as mistakes can happen. Thank you for understanding.Last night again accusations on company ethics started, with people accusing the owner, Josaphine Cooperstone of selling her horses in the past. CSR’s tried to let everyone know that this was not true and that Josaphine had not and does not sell any horses. Josaphine herself came into the group, to defend against the false accusations which finally led to this statement being posted by one of the group

 

•Will staff be able to breed and sell your breedables in the market? All staff other than the owners, scripter, and builder will be able to sell the horses since they will not have access to any of the“inside” information or to the main database.And yes CSR’s sell horses as we love to breed them and raise them just like everyone else.I hope this will help clear up some of the questions others that were not in the group yesterday may have as we all know gossip travels fast and changes its story quicklyTake Care All and see you next Saturday

P.S I also learned something new yesterday. It was brought to my attention by a group member that 2.0 bundles when they are birthed defaut to both food types. I spoke with our scripter Lex and he said it will be fixed.
So for the time being, set food preference after birthing them through the menu.

Hi Everyone 
   I really had an enjoyable time in the group this morning. There was no argueing and everyone was having a pleasant conversation. I sure Thank you all for that. These are some of the things we talked about today:

 What the gender of a horse is before it was birthed. The gender of the horses are random so its not possible to tell what gender it is until after it is birthed.
The Charmed horses come to you randomly and any pair of horses can give you a Charmed Horse.
You can update any horses after March 5th the only thing is you will not get any support on  1.3 horses after that date. We will still replace missing/lost 1.3 horses but they will be returned as the current version not 1.3’s. It’s always good to remember anytime support repairs your horses they will be sent back to you as the current version.
 Thank You for reading  an have a great day .
