[Info] The Retired Coat Gallery

This thread is here to show off your Retired Coats. This is not the place to post non retired coats. **The two exceptions would be coats that have been pulled (brief discussions) and the pre release coats.

REMEMBER:

******** absolutely no sales talk, no talk about spares or how many extras of a copy you got and selling them to fund your RC habit this is just a place to talk RCs

* although links and graphics are ok on this thread, they are not allowed normally on public forums

* any negative or unkind comments on artists or coats (or anyone!) will be removed, and depending on the case, it might mean an instant forum ban.

* DO NOT use this as a place to sell your horse/coats-if you feel the need to break this rule, it will mean an instant forum ban...

** Sales ads are NOT allowed in any public forums. Asking for spare coats will now be considered a sales ad. This includes stating that you plan to sell a coat, or point out coats for sale in sales.

* Do not use this place as a spot for rants or complaints-About coats/BG/or each other.

* This is not the place to ask players to price your coats, or to ask others the worth of a coat, you can check uses on your own by hovering your mouse over the gray apple and price it from there.

* This is not the place to bring up the subject of stolen images. Keep in mind that the rules of the BP used to be very different, and many old coats are from that time.
There is not any reason to bring that up, or report the coats.

*Please do not do a coat countdown for soon to retire coats.

* Please do not post coats that are currently in the GA and have either not retired, or will never retire.

* Please do not post coat/bg combos or ask opinions on them, except following coat release.

* Some coats may be removed in the future, whether that be for problems with the coats itself or just because they're clearing room on the server to allow other coats to be uploaded - if you're buying retired coats, please keep that in mind. If you want a permanent copy, I would recommend saving the graphic to your computer

* How to discover who many uses a New GC coat will retire-There is now a coat countdown in the GA, and it will show how many have been used and how many uses there are left.

** There is now a new creations directory which shows all coats. Go to Community>>>Directories>>>Creations>>>Click more criteria, and on the left hand side is a gold and silver apple. Click the silver apple and search to see all retired coats.

* To see who created/how many uses/name/or if you have it already of a RC coat, simply click on the silver apple, and it will tell you.

*** Posting links to other player's coats is NOT allowed and can mean a forum ban.

*#*#*#* If players feel the need break the main topic rules, such as sales ads/coat countdowns/spares-you can expect an instant forum ban without any warning prior to it *#*#*#*

Zilakla just paid a fortune for that 3 use coat in auctions.

It's kinda messed up that it would take people over ten years to notice, and then opps, it's gotta go.

Sorry here's a easier version of the Bluecrest rc I posted earlier... hopefully it will work...
I'm not very happy either and have contacted contact us, asking why in the world it was deleted after 10 years on here 11 days after I brought it.

I noticed another one use is gone as well one of the other top collectors had it as a favourite coat so I am now dreading that they actually planning on deleting more of the old coats that might not entirely follow the rules, I did point out to them that if they're planning that they cannot expect that one golden Apple will cover the value of the coat after 10 years.

They said they would look into it but did not promise me a satisfying answer, I'm hoping that at the very least maybe I can get 77 golden apples out of them but I'm doubting that too.
(I paid 7701 pass for it, therefore the 77 golden apples)

Guess we all have to start looking at our old retired coats fearing they might actually decide to delete themdefault smiley :(

This is an absolute disaster Zilakla, hope you get decent compensation.
Howrse better give players who owned these rare coats a good compensation. One Golden Apple in return for losing a coat with less than 10 copies is absolutely messed up. I'm not even a collector and I'm mad about this, so I can't imagine how these players must feel.

Copyright, artwork not against original rules ..whatever ..after x # of years on the game they should be left the flip alone. If there was going to be trouble over it, there would have already been...
It is ridiculous � to think, a mear golden apple or even a outrageous compensation can replace the value of the art removed. If they had a Picasso in there collection would they reimburse the collector a 3 x5 portrait by a unknown....

So so sad to see this artwork lost

That is truly devastating. I highly sympathize with you. Before the new pass system, I had gotten an RC unicorn for 12 passes and then not even a couple of days later it was deleted from the game. I essentially lost 12,000 passes according to the new pass system. I was furious I only got compensated for my massive loss for one measly golden apple.

I guess its the risk we take collecting, but it's none the less infuriating and the system for compensation needs to change in my opinion.

I''m kinda worried now about collecting RCs. It's such an expensive hobby and it could go so wrong. I hope you guys get a fair compensation!! ^


On a happier note, I found an 85 copy in the sales today

I was brought back here from a pm from a concerned friend. Not thrilled to hear about old coats being deleted. Stuff I’ve had for ten years and paid real money for is potentially in danger. Not impressed. default smiley (o)

I always thought the copyrighted coats would eventually be removed so I never invested in any. It's unfortunate that players have lost a lot collecting them and didn't get decent compensation. They were so impressive to have in a collection. I understand why they had to go but it's really sad to see the coats gone, they're kinda a bit of Howrse history.

Okay I can can confirm that particular coat was removed for plagiarism, as has happened with other coats if the artist has contacted the game.

I guess the auction must have brought it to public attention. I know we are all aware of the risks with coats we essentially know ( or have an inkling ) are plagiarized but it was still quite a shock after so many years to see one go, although of course the absolute correct thing to happen.

Grabbed the donkey, the winged unicorn and the pony. Not sure if I'm gonna keep the winged uni, but I know for sure that I'm keeping the donkey. I only bought the pony to resell, so hopefully I'll make profit. default smiley ^)

I got all of them! I'm keeping all of them except the pony. I put that coat on one of my GP released team ponies so hoping to make a pretty good profit on him.
