Amaretto Mentor Group

I wanted to use my blog today to remind you all of one of the great things that Amaretto offers as assistance new breeders to the Amaretto Community!

 

The Amaretto Mentor Program was an idea born from our wonderful staff and community via the A.M.O.C. group meetings, has come to life to help anyone in need of information and guidance from an experienced breeder.  The Amaretto Mentor Program is something that everyone can take part in.

 

If you would like to help out a new breeder or even a breeder that’s been in the game for a while who just has some questions, then we encourage you to go to the Haven sim, University sim or the Amaretto main store and sign up to become a Mentor.  You can click the “Become a Mentor” board and you will be assigned a group tag of Mentor.  Then you just need to go into the Amaretto Mentor group and introduce yourself and see if anyone needs any help!

 

The mentors are not going to be Amaretto staff, just giving people who are willing to help with issues and questions one might have when breeding Amaretto animals.  Of course the Mentors will be able to contact Amaretto Staff with any questions they may have, but we want to encourage everyone in the community to extend a helping hand and share your knowledge of Amaretto Breedables.

 

Now if you have questions about breeding or you’re a new breeder in the community, you can go to the Haven sim, University sim or the Amaretto main store and sign up to become a Mentee.  You can click the “New to Amaretto Breedables” board and you will be assigned a group tag of Mentee.  Then you just need to go into the Amaretto Mentor group and introduce yourself and ask if anyone is around that could answer some of your questions!

 

We look forward to hearing many wonderful stories of the community coming together to help one another, and in return seeing many beautiful breedables posted in the groups!

 

Until next time, Happy Breeding & Mentoring everyone!

Are You A Groupie?

Happy Monday Amaretto community! Did you know about all of the groups Amaretto has available to our community? Well today I am going to list all of our groups for you and tell you a little something about each one. Let’s start off with our main group.

The ~Amaretto Ranch~ Breedables group. This is the head honcho of all the Amaretto groups. This is a very fun and active group. We have a great community from all over the world. If you have questions about or breedables, this is an awesome place to turn to. In this group you can also share your awesome bundles and horses. For security reason, this group is available to avatars 40 days and older.

Next we have the Amaretto Ranch Multi Language group. This group chat is for chat and support in multiple languages. Just like the main group if you need your questions answered or want to share your amazing breedables in your language, you can pop in to this group at any time. As with the main group, the multi-language group is available to avatars 40 days and older.

And now, ~Amaretto Ranch~ Beta Testers group. This group was designed so that all of our beta testers have a place to come and discuss whatever breedable or product they are testing for Amaretto Ranch Breedables. It’s a place to talk about things like bugs, likes, dislikes and suggestions on products being tested by Amaretto. This is a closed group and when and/or if the time comes up that we need more beta testers, we will send notices in the main group allowing people to have a chance to test for Amaretto.

~Amaretto Ranch Boomtown~ group was created specifically for our social sim, The Amaretto Boomtown sim. The Amaretto Ranch Boomtown sim is a awesome little town where you can go to hang out with other members of the community and possibly run into some of the Amaretto Team while you’re there. Club Amaretto is located on Boomtown and so is our fishing dock, where we hold fishing contests quite often. ~Amaretto Market Owners Coalition~ group was designed in hopes to bring the breeders and market owners together. The officers of this group work together to try to bring some stabilization to the secondary market. They put together many fun events each month and they hold monthly meetings for the community to discuss their ideas. This group is by invitation only. Please contact a member of the Amaretto Team so we can send an invite to those support Amaretto and are interested in promoting the secondary market.

The ~Amaretto Ranch University~ group is dedicated to the ARU. The Amaretto Ranch University is a sim dedicated to higher learning of Amaretto Ranch Breedable products. This group and sim were created as the community expressed this is something they would like and that the community would obviously benefit from. The mission of Amaretto Ranch University is to educate our community on all aspects of the Amaretto Ranch products. We believe that to achieve full knowledge of our products means to fully enjoy them. Amaretto Ranch University is provided to the Amaretto community free of charge and is supported by Amaretto Ranch and volunteers who believe in this mission and are committed to providing competent and caring guidance to all who seek it. This group is for avatar 40 days and older.

The ~Amaretto Ranch~ K-9s and Barnyard Bird groups were created for Amaretto Ranch K-9 and Barnyard Bird lovers! This group is dedicated to chat about all things K-9 and Barnyard Bird related. If you have questions, suggestions or you’re just looking to chat with others about Amaretto K-9s or Barnyard Birds, this is the group for you! Once again, this group is open to all avatars 40 days and older.

Are you new to Amaretto? Or looking for some extra help with Amaretto breedables? Then ~Amaretto Mentor Program~ groups is for you.The Amaretto Mentor Program idea was created from our wonderful staff and community via the A.M.O.C. group meetings, and has come to life to help anyone in need of information and guidance from an experienced breeder. These mentors are not Amaretto staff, just giving people who are willing to help with issues and questions one might have when breeding Amaretto animals. To become a mentor or mentee you can find a mentor board at any of the main Amaretto Breedable locations or Haven, University and Boomtown sims.

And last but certainly  not least is the ~Amaretto Advertising Network~. Here you can advertise your Amaretto Ranch Breedables for sale. You can chat about your breedables here; post them for sale, for trade and or give-a-way!  Feel free to advertise your stores/booths no matter their location.  Advertising may be allowed but abusive behavior and arguing are not tolerated. The posting limit for this group is 1 group IM per hour and 1 notice per 2 hours. The maximum is 4 ads per day. This group is open to all avatars 40 days and older.

With the exception of the advertising group, there is no advertising, selling, trading, giveaways or freebies allowed in the groups. The advertising group is the only group where it is acceptable. Please keep that in mind when joining the Amaretto groups.

All of our groups are monitored by the Amaretto staff as well as moderators for the groups.

I hope this opened your eyes to all of the Amaretto groups we have to offer! Feel free to visit any Amaretto Ranch store location to find a group joiner board and join one or all groups!
