We do all kinds of things like think about ponie traits, fix those duplicated horses, find those new wings on the Barnyard Birds!

Here is a pic of me hard at work! Working on what you ask ? Well ya never know what Ava is doing!

Here is a pic I snapped while Josaphine and Tmz hard at work.


I know most of you have wondered where do they run off too? What are they doing all day! Well lots of ims, tickets, and notecards! I hope it is as glamorous as you pictured!

Evergreen Escape!

Hey guys its a Terrific Tuesday here at Amaretto! I wanted to take some time out of my day and show you guys an awesome place ive have found in sl. This is a great place for you to ride your horses or take your k9 or ponie for a walk!

Evergreen Escape is a scenic New England-themed sim that is oriented towards realistic horse role play in a rustic country setting. With several hang out spots, rentals, and trails to explore, this seasonal and romantic sim is a welcoming retreat for all.

Some times we get so caught up in projects, stores and auctions that we forget to take the time to enjoy our breedable!

This location even had a water for my horse!


Here is your ride to Evergreen Escape http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Tikki/142/110/22

This sim is in no way associated with Amaretto I found this in the destination guide but its def worth checking out! If you visit take a pic and send it to me or drop it in for the picture of the week contest!

 

Don’t forget that tomorrow at 1 PM is the Amaretto community meeting I hope to see you all there! This is ava riding off into the sunset!

Ticket System 101!!

Happy Monday everyone!! A lot can happen in Second Life that we have no control over… from duplicates, to missing animals, to missing food or consumables. We at Amaretto do our best to address these issues and help resolve the issues for you so you can get back to breeding as soon as possible. There are times however, where the issues is out of Amaretto’s hands and we will have to refer you to Linden Labs. So for my Customer Connection today I wanted to give an in depth look into the Support System and filing a support ticket. Below I will tell you step by step how to register for the support system and file a support ticket…

You need to visit the Amaretto Support desk at:  http://support.amarettobreedables.com

Once you get there, have a look at the  ticket guidelines. These guidelines can answer many of your questions regarding tickets and will help ensure the ticket process goes smoothly.

You can also check the status of your ticket by logging in to the support system and viewing your ticket.

That’s it!! You did it! You just filed a support ticket for your issue!! An Amaretto Customer Service Representative (CSR) will be responding in your ticket with further information or instructions about completing your support ticket. Please note, our CSRs will not contact you in world. All communication must be done through the ticket system. If information is requested, please provide it in the ticket itself. Please do not message or send a notecard to the CSR. The CSRs are very busy and may miss or overlook the message or notecard and this could  delay the completion of your support ticket. Tickets can take 48-72 hours to get a response from a CSR. Please be patient with us, especially at peak times such as updates or when new Amaretto products are released!

Here are a few tips and tricks that can help out when filing a supoort ticket with Amaretto…

~ If the CSR ask you for a slurl, make sure they are on your allowed list and paste the slurl to the breedable your having a issue.

You can get a slurl by going there in world and opening the map and choosing the copy slurl option. This copies your ordinates in world and now you will be able to post them. A slurl will look like this:

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Ranch%20Horses/57/155/22

~ If the CSR asks you to please send your breedable in world with your full SL name and Amaretto Ticket number. Thank you.

This means you make a folder in your inventory name your folder just as the CSR asked you.

Example: Jaymee Caproni JPM-222-22395

This ensures that your breedable will not get lost in a inventory and will be easily matched with your ticket. If you do not do this our CSRS can not be responsible for random objects being sent to them. If your breedable is not in a folder it will be sent back to you!!!! (if we can find out who it belongs too)

~Make sure that you are sending the breedable to the correct CSR. Don’t assume it will be the same one who did your last ticket. Read your responses carefully and send to the proper CSR.

~ Always include your full SL name!
~ Include any transaction in reference to not delivered items or even duplicated breedables that you recently purchased!
~ Always be respectful to the Amaretto Staff they will help you in any way they can.
~ Be sure to include enough information such as UUID’s, Parents information or names of the missing breedable.
~ YOU MUST CHECK YOUR TICKET FOR A RESPONSE!! (if you do not respond in 3 days we will close your ticket)

~ Please understand if you are not showing as owner of a breedable on our servers we can not return it to you. (That means no tickets for friends, family, or partners) You wouldn’t want us to send your horse to someone else!

I hope this has helped clear up any questions or concerns about filing a support ticket with Amaretto!!

Happy breeding! Until next time…

Elemental Horses

Hi Everyone

Today I want to take a look at the Elemental Horses that were released way back in 2011, these horses are still completely amazing and a must have for all collectors out there!

To have a chance at getting one of these randomly dropped Elemental horses you have to breed Element Eyes together.

Elemental Eyes Wiki Link HERE

The Elemental Horses can be randomly birthed by breeding together any two horses that have Element Eyes.
Elemental Horses can NOT pass their coat.
However breeding an Elemental Horse with another Elemental Horse or with any other horse with Element Eyes you will slightly increase your chance for another Elemental Horse.

Elemental Horses Wiki Link HERE

These really are one of my favorite eye-bred collection of horses, they are beautiful and amazing!

Thats it from me today, so get breeding those Element eyes together and happy breeding.

Hugs Marku <3

Hello Amaretto Community and happy Monday!  I hope everyone has an amazing week! I wanted to take this moment to remind everyone how to protect yourself in Secondlife while breeding and selling your breedables.

A few things you can do to protect yourself and your breedables.

  • Don’t buy/sell breedables to avatars that are only one day old.
  • Always set prices of your breedables in your inventory or in a private area
  • When putting items out for auction be sure they are not set for sale before they are sold
  • Don’t buy breedables from random people messaging you.
  • Always check the creator of the horse, K-9 or Barnyard Bird. It should always without exception be JJ Cerna for horses, Ancient Biscuit for K-9s, Mazelina Menna for Barnyard Birds and PlayfulPonie Resident for the Ponie Pals.
  • NEVER I mean never buy a duplicated breedable or a breedables that you haven’t seen rezzed in Secondlife.

Amaretto cannot be there to help you at every breedable sale nor can we refund you if you buy a copybotted breedable or a duplicated breedable. You have to protect yourself against these people in Secondlife, if you do fall victim to one of these scams the best thing to do is file a abuse report them to Linden Lab.

There have been some issues with a griefer pretending to give out free stuff that if you wear it or give it debit permissions it will drain your Linden balance. I just wanted to give out a few tips about protecting yourself from these kinds of griefers and thieves.

1.) Always pay attention to who is giving you things. If you don’t know them don’t wear it… only rez it. If it asks you to give it debit permissions DECLINE IT!!!! Then delete it and purge it from your inventory.

2.) When dealing with Amaretto products they are no modify, no copy, no transfer. They can only be purchased from an Amaretto store and Marketplace or be given by one of the three Amaretto Business Avatars JJ Cerna, Ancient Biscuit, and Mazelina Menna. Any other avatar trying to give out Amaretto Products (other than animals of course) is a griefer or copybotter. Real Amaretto products will never ask for debt permissions!!!!

Also be sure to check out this blog by Josaphine on protecting yourself:

http://amarettobreedables.com/blogs/5/131/copybotters-again

Please be responsible and protect yourself.  But you guys have to be proactive and protect yourself against such scams and report all scammers to Linden Lab with an abuse report. Last but not least always remember that if something sounds too good to be true it probably is!

I hope this helps everyone protect themselves and their breedables from scams and thieves. I hope everyone has an amazing breedable week coming!

Until next time….
