Community Etiquette – Auction Hoppers!

Hey Everyone, Its Friyaaaaay!!!! and yes its Bazza here….. Josie entrusted me with posting a connection… isn’t that scary?, I think she’s nuts!

Ok so soapbox time with Bazza, I am going to start a series of connections on community issues. These will be things I think affect our community and what we can all do to make it better.

First up is auction hopping, As a few of you guys probably know I run a market and this is probably the most notable issue I’ve seen and I would also say it’s an increasing issue as more people are starting to do it.

 

Everyone is free to do as they please in Second Life; that is the beauty of the game, but sometimes reflection wouldn’t be such a bad thing on how each other’s actions affect everyone else or more so our very own market.

Supporting each other as breeders, buyers and sellers is the key to a stronger market.

It is no fun for anyone at the end of a waiting list or classic auction that has waited 1-2 hours and they put out their horse/k9/barnyard bird or ponie onto the panel to be auctioned off in front of 5 other breeders when the auction started with 35 people. If people are sitting through your panel then you should return the favor to your fellow breeders. You never know when someone is going to rez out something you may want!

If there are 2 auctions going on at the same time then commit to 1 auction, don’t join both waiting lists or grab a panel at each auction and hop between the 2, this is only hurting yourself, the auction houses that you visit and also the market!

So let’s build a better, greater and fairer community together.

That’s it from me this week, have an awesome weekend and see you all in the groups.

Breeder of the Month!

Hello everyone! I hope that everyone is having a thursday! I know I am ready for Friyay! I wanted to take some time to talk to everyone about something I love doing and that is calling attention to those who love Amaretto and support our products.

I recently did a connection on a gold star! We have handed out several gold stars however I have decided to make a change to this program. Instead of giving one gold star away each day I will be choosing a Amaretto Breeder of the month! This is not a contest and if you breed any Amaretto animals you could be the Breeder of the Month!

So how will I choose you ask ?
I will choose based on involvement with the community, helpfulness in the group, activity on any of our websites. You do not have to be the biggest breeder or the littlest breeder to be chosen.

The chosen Breeder of the Month will receive a trophy with your name on it as well as an Amaretto Prize pack!

I am excited and think this will be a lot of fun, and will be cool if you are out shopping a market and you see a breeder of the month trophy you will know that specific breeder is plugged into all things Amaretto.

If you would like to nominate someone to be the breeder of the month please send me an nomination notecard. If you have any questions please feel free to im me in world. I will annouce the winner on the last Friday of every month!


I hope that we will have a lot of fun with the Breeder of the Month! I can’t wait to figure out who will be our first Breeder of the Month! Happy breeding everyone this is Ava over and out!

Barnyard Bird Consumables Covered!

Happy Wednesday Everyone!! Today is a bok bok beautiful day and I wanted to take a moment to go over the Barnyard Bird consumables! The birds are so cute and fun to breed and we offer several different consumables to keep your Barnyard Birds healthy and to make breeding just a little easier! Take a look below at these consumables…

Barley Bird Diet
Barley Bird Diet is the food that keeps your Barnyard Birds healthy and able to breed when its time. Without a source of food the Barnyard Birds will become sick and will need to either eat their way out of starvation or be healed using a Flu Shot. Stock up on Barley Bird Diet today and keep your birds healthy and breedable.

Orange Rinds
These delicious orange rinds are used to build the vivacity of your Barnyard Bird! These are important as your Barnyard Bird must have 85% or higher vivacity coupled with 100% vigor in order to breed.

High Potency Seeds
These seeds pack a potent punch! High Potency Seeds provide a 10% increase to Vigor. Vigor is important as your Barnyard Bird must have 85% or higher vivacity coupled with 100% vigor in order to breed. This consumable can only be used on a Barnyard Bird once in a 24 hour period.

Poultry Glow
This is the trifecta of consumables! The Poultry Glow provides a 5% increase to Stamina, a 5% increase to Vivacity and a 5% increase to Vigor. This consumable can only be used on a Barnyard Bird once in a 24 hour period

Flu Shot
If your Barnyard Bird runs out of food, or if you leave it in your inventory it will become sick. Once your Barnyard Bird is sick it will take 4 days for it to eat its way out of sickness, or you can purchase a one-time use Flu Shot that will heal one Barnyard Bird instantly

Vivacity Corn
These one-time use Vivacity Corns will increase one of your bird’s vivacity by 15%.

Also if you want to keep your Amaretto Barnyard Bird for a pet there is Pet Pellets and there is also the Beloved Bird!

Pet Pellets
Pet Pellets will keep your Barnyard Bird healthy not just when they are Seniors but also on those younger birds you simply do Not want to breed.

Beloved Bird
The Beloved Bird will make a Senior Bird so that it will not require food any more. All other normal functions for a Senior Bird will still operate normally. It only works for Senior Birds (Senior Bird= No more cycles remaining) and can be used for both male and female Senior Birds.

These Consumables can be found in any of the Amaretto Barnyard Bird Stores. Please visit this link for a complete list of locations. http://amarettobreedables.com/pages/locations
