[Info] The Retired Coat Gallery
They also are in the same cantering position. I don't get coats that look like too much like spirit either especially if they are not semi realistic and if I do I want to be one applying the golden apple or get it for about 100passes

I had the pulled coat as a 400 use one...too bad it was so pretty!
|
Yup, they started that a few years ago, and it was such a poor decision. I would rather have my voting time cut in half if it meant that they actually copyright checked coats before voting. There's been so many coats I absolutely loved and had, but got pulled because of copyright. Like come on .-.
|
Very sad the 400 use one was pulled, it was one of my favorites...
|
*This* Especially since the compensation of a GA feels pretty moot when the pulled coat was a retired coat. The two are not comparable in the slightest, and my heart goes out to anyone who had spent 100+ passes on a RC coat in the sales, only to have that coat be pulled. I'm still scared when a low use coat shows up in the auctions after that three use coat got pulled to be honest.
|
I had debated getting it, I'm SO glad I didn't now. That blows for you guys.
|
Wait, what? When did that happen? I know a lot of the old RCs are blatantly edited photos and the like, but I didn't think they would pull them.
|
This was a few months ago, now? I forgot to bid on the coat, and I was so annoyed with myself, I was maybe 10 seconds late to the auction, and then it was pulled. I couldn't believe it. I was angry /for/ the player who got the coat lol. Last I knew they were in the process of working something out with Howrse, since they really got the short stick on that. On top of this, I have no reason to collect the unlimited GAs, since they can't be retired. I mean, what's the point? They'll always be there, unlike the pre-CS coats which can be retired after 100 uses. Maybe that'll change in the future, but I can't be bothered with them.

Heres more info on it. Happened in June 2019

I don't think we should be blaming Howrse for this. As an artist myself I feel copyright is important. If a coat is infringing copyright it's infringing copyright, whether its a year or 10 years old. And if it's an obscure book illustration or something then it might not be found out immediately.
Really the one who should be blamed is the person who submitted the coat. And they are the one who should have to pay back those who've lost passes on it. Give those people the pick of their horses or something. Of course, that wouldn't be possible if they are no longer on Howrse. PS: take a look at the Black Pearl thread: someone's posted another coat they believe is based on a photo (it looks like the same horse!) I had that coat just pulled too. I haven't really lost anything and I can laugh about it myself. It's on a horse I put a H Pack on then missed the limited coat I meant to get for him. Waited months for another for him, and now it's been pulled... the horse is called Fool's Wish

It's a rather large release this time
Thanks for posting, Rogin!
|
Thanks for posting, the arab!
More than usual, as said, might be a scrum to get them all.
|
No problem.
Yes quite a few this time. Guess it's good I missed the last couple so I have a few GAs and Harm packs saved up.
|
Ok, so I haven't done the early VIP release in over half a year. If it says tomorrow at 0400 hours, that means I get the coats today at 1600 hours, right?
|
Yes that's right, it is 12 hours prior to the regular release. So if the regular release is 4am tomorrow, then the early release is 4pm tonight for you.
|
I want the grey Arabian and winged unicorn. The unicorns are nice too. At least I think the coat that was half copyrighted isn't there. It would probably be a pony coat.
|
I actually wish we weren't getting a new RC winged draft... I was hoping the market for them would go back up so I could sell the ones from last release.
I love the brown unicorn though.
|
Annoying. We seem to have a French pony and no French pony breeds. I thought of Camargue but that's not a pony on Howrse. Ah well, it looks Welsh...
|
Kind of underwhelmed with this release... However, I will be getting the winged unicorn, as it's my favorite out of the lot. Hopefully there are some nice new GAs too I can give my unis.
|
Got all 8. A bit underwhelming, but not too bad.
|
Whew, just barely managed to get all 8. I really love all but 2 of them, and the other 2 I got simply because of the 100 copy part.
|
First release I've been able to make in a while! My phone gave me the 1 hour warning on the hour... but then I realized I was in the wrong time zone! Was able snag all 8 as the last or 2nd to last copy on a few Sad there isn't another donkey
|
Got all 8 as well! May get some more copies of my faves tomorrow! Agree it was a bit overwhelming. There were a couple I hadn't lined up horses for, but I managed to find horses for them after I'd got the others! Last one was at 48 out of 50 so just did it!
|
Had to work today. I'll be scrabbling with everyone else at 2AM. Normally, I'd just skip it and buy them in sales the next day, but WOW, this lot is so beautiful, I wanna put them on all my best horses.
