[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 *#*#*#*

That's just insane - at least we are all in same boat - anyone who manages to snag all of those tonight isn't playing within the rules, or is superhuman. I can't imagine snagging them all over both releases even.

Lots of nice coats in there too but in honesty i'm not sure if it's worth trying anymore, i'm getting really fed up of these huge releases!

glad so many creators are making it but also this is actually painful who even will have 42 horses prepped or the bmi/passes/speed to get them all

I have personally managed 20+ in one cycle, but gosh did it make my heart race and anxiety go through the roof. I'm sick this time, so gonna just focus on the horses and Pegasus, not gonna stress myself more and risk making myself even more sicker.

I'm going for 15 total this time around. I've managed to get 15 in one release before, but I'm still stressing out. default smiley :s

I usually manage to grab all of them in one release, but this is just insanity. They need to put some sort of limit on this. I highly doubt that I'll be able to grab all of them from VIP release, but I guess we shall see. Either way it's crazy stressful to attempt to get all the coats this round, not to mention the price as well.

Me realizing there are 7 100 copies and only 5 crios so far default smiley :$

Me then realizing that there are a further 3 200 copies default smiley :o

Oh boy, I wouldn't worry, I can easily do the two I need for the 100 copies, but then I remember how fast the 200 copies have been going lately. default smiley :s

I've only been managing 7/8 a release if i'm lucky for the last few months, it seems to have gone crazy with how many players now use this perk, which is pretty much verified by all the copies then clogging up the sales...

Trouble is if you don't prep for the full release and only what you would like, then you potentially miss out on one that hasn't proved as popular as you work through your tabs, especially when sometimes the 2nd/3rd one i get to can already be gone (happened last month). There are 2 which of course will fly this time and be most peoples priorities.

They must have increased the number then, and that's good news. Back then only 50 coats made it through default smiley :)
They probably went up because the species increased, too.

Which ones will be the priority? Thinking about it, this might be easy if you go for the unpopular ones as the majority will go for the popular ones.

On the bright side, lots of people might be traveling and not at their computers today since it is an American holiday. Lots of people at home, but not everyone can get away to do the release. I remember last Christmas, I managed, but it was a little embarrassing. The coats did not go that fast either. With so many to pick from, they might not go as fast as you think!

At the same time, this is super discouraging. Selling lots of stuff because I don't even have enough passes set aside to get all the retired coats. Just gonna focus on the 100 use, and hopefully by 3 am, I'll be rich enough to get all the 200+ coats.

Still, this IS insane, and for a brief moment, though I might just quit collecting. If enough people complain about this, they might do something about it.

For me it isn't a case of lack of resources, I am sitting on 37 apples and 31 harms, but both the amount of coats AND the prepping; I thought 5 crios would be enough based on previous releases, so now I am needing to rush 5 more while not feeling that good if I want all the 100 copies and 200 copy horse related coats.

yeah, that seems likely!
Might also explain the increase in limited coats making it through. 7 100 use riding horse coats is kind of a doozy though default smiley xd

Well getting the tabs lined up took forever!

Decided to just go in the random order they appear, bar my two priorities, and hope for the best and that I can nab something or other along the way. Prioritising hasn't worked that well last few months so thought i'd try a new approach!
