Amaretto University is a way to learn all about Amaretto Breedables, so we invite you to attend an get the knowledge that we offer to you. These classes are all free !!

How to be heard!

Happy Thursday!  We had a great Community Meeting yesterday and a lot of you were there with some great questions.  Which made me start to think about how many different ways you have to communicate with us here on the Amaretto Ranch and have your voice heard.  So today in my blog I want to remind you of all the different ways you have to communicate directly with Amaretto staff.

Let’s start with the Community Meeting which we have each month.  At these Community Meetings you can come and ask the Amaretto staff directly the questions you have about all things Amaretto. Or even bring those amazing suggestions we always get from our wonderful Community! These meetings are generally held the last Wednesday of each month and you can always check the Amaretto calendar for the day and time.

http://amarettobreedables.com/pages/calendar

Also each and every day we have something called Office Hours.  During Office Hours members of the Amaretto staff will announce in the Amaretto groups that they will be over at the main store and you can head over there and ask us questions or just chat with us for a while!  We enjoy hearing from the Amaretto Community so come over and visit us when you see we’re having Office Hours!

Also over at the main Amaretto Store you will see Online Boards for the Amaretto staff.  You can click the board any of the staff that is showing an online status and ask us questions or if you need help we can come over and help you.

onlineboard

Now over at all the Amaretto store locations you will also find Suggestion boxes that you can drop a note card in at any time to share your suggestions with Amaretto.

suggestion-box

Next you can always file a ticket on the support site and ask questions or submit your suggestions.

http://support.amarettobreedables.com/index.php

Now this last way I’m going to share with you is the one you should all know about …. and that’s the Amaretto groups! You can always come in any of the Amaretto groups and ask your questions or share your latest and greatest suggestions! The group joiner boards are at all the Amaretto store locations also.

Now  you can never say that Amaretto does not listen when we provide you with many ways of communicating with us!  Until next time, Smile!!! You are a member of the GREATEST Community in SL!! Be proud, Be happy, Be inspired …. Be Amaretto!!!

Spotlight on Mules

Happy Thursday!  I hope you’re all excited about tonight’s Hawaiian Christmas Party!  It is going to be a great time!  I wanted to talk to you all about some exciting little cuties that are often over looked in the Amaretto Community …..Mules!

I can hear you all asking now, How can I get a Mule? By breeding any of the Haven Donkeys with any Amaretto Horse other than another Haven Donkey there is an opportunity to receive one of the Mules.  The Ash Grey Mule, Brass Mule and Sienna Mule are super cute but they do not have the ability to pass their coats.

I personally had to go and get a couple of the Haven Donkeys so I could try for a Mule of my own!  In case you’ve forgotten those Haven Donkeys make the cutest sounds!  So save up those Haven points and go get your own Donkeys and let us all fill the grid with these awesome Amaretto Mules!

Until next time, Smile!!! You are a member of the GREATEST Community in SL!! Be proud, Be happy, Be inspired …. Be Amaretto!!!

Ava why isn’t my horse gaining fervor??

Ava why isn’t my horse gaining fervor?? I get this question at least once a day! So i wanted to go over a few reason why this may not be happening!

why

The number one culprit is that your horse is not at least 75% happy! If a horses happiness is under 75% it will not gain fervor.
So why might your horse not be over 75% happy?? Lets go through the check list.

Is there a salt lick out?
Is the salt lick a old salt lick?
Is the salt lick set to the proper group?
Is the horse within range of the salt lick?
Is the horse over 7 days old?
Are scripts turned on?
Is the horse asleep?
Is the horse latest version?
Does the horse say eaten pet food?

These are all the question I ask my self when someone says the horse is not over 75% happiness. If after checking all those things off the list you have some options. You can ride the horse to see if their happiness will rise, you can give it Sugar Cubes this will increase one of your horses happiness by 15%, or give your horse a cocktail this will increase energy, happiness and fervor by 5% and decrease hunger and thirst by 5%.

After all checks and trying these options your horse will still not get over 75% happiness its time to file a ticket and let the pros take a look and see if they can find the issue. A CSR may ask for a slurl to your horse in world so we can come check your settings
How do you get a slurl?
1. Go to where your horses are in world.
2. Open the world map.
3. Click the Copy SLurl button.
4. Use control+v to paste the SLurl in your ticket!
You can file a ticket here:

Its important to know all of these trouble shooting tips if not for you then maybe your breeder friends or someone in the group!
Don’t forget to go pick up your Christmas Edition Animals or your FREE Amaretto Christmas Gift! This is Ava over and out hope your all staying warm!!!
