I think that gaining points after the pass changes will change as well. (Seeing that players on the 3 servers where it happened get less points than before while they are playing the same.) So the current system isn't that helpful to find out what we need to do after pass horses are removed. A player posted a list containing activities pages ago, and maybe these activities will form the base of the nem system in some way. We couldn't figure it out yet. But for now maybe taking care of some horses and going for a ride or participating in competitions is enough.

I honestly think it will then set Howrse back and make Howrse go broke with these pass changes if what is true what your saying that we could get a pass every 3 days, since then why would players waste money buying passes if they can just get a free one every 3 days. And players who spend money on this game is supporting Howrse a lot so honestly I think they should feel special and get treated for spending real money what helps the game a lot.

pass points in the new system.
I have an account on the CZ server, and no, you are not likely to get the full 10 points every day. I have found, and others in their forums as well, that gaining points under the new system will be much more difficult. On average I get 6 points a day. I've gotten 9 once and never 10.
As I've said, this point thing is the main reason I don't like this change. A decrease from 30 to 10 is fine as long as they are guaranteed so I can keep up my VIP. But as it stands currently on the CZ server I won't be able to fund my VIP unless I get passes from horse sales (unlikely as that's rare for me as it is, let alone when pass intake falls).

(Foal) groom bed play carrot feed play stroke water play. (Legacy) groom, carrot lesson train, stroke water feed. Bought Box. scratched cards. bought x2 oats. Used a Helio's Ray

Nov. 26 (have 22 points. Got 6 points from all this? Seriously?) Item exchange went through. Sold items. Worked several horses (lessons, training, rides, comps, carrots). Renamed horses. Bought 3 horses. Craft and harvest workshop. Planted meadows. Congratulated a player. Covered mare with my stallion. Bred mare, foaled mare, sold foal.

in figuring out how to get points and what not, I sold lots of stuff in order to buy horses I could send to heaven to get the "broccoli horse" (insert chuckle, because I love whoever came up with that).
I only got 4 passes Nov. 18 and Dec. 15. In contrast, in that same time frame I was able to buy/age up 12 horses I sent to heaven. Basically 4 passes from this new "fairer" point system vs. what could have been 10 guaranteed pass horses plus either 2 extra passes if I got lucky or 2 bonus/BM items at least. Grant it, as an older player I know many ways of earning money and what to sell for better profits, but it's really not that hard for new players to currently gain passes from our system if they read tips and learn about it first. Especially because the prices of everything over there are more expensive than here. When I first had access to the sales older horses were over 200k vs. the consistent 170k over here

If you think about it, maybe these pass changes aren't so bad. The current system never guarantees 30 passes a month after 10, you have a better chance at getting something like a Hypnos Blanket or something rather than a pass, and after 30 horses you won't get anything for killing pass horses. So theres that you may just only get 10 passes for the month and 20 bonuses. The new pass system, all you have to do is take care of 1 horse every day and you will have a pass in 3 days. Sure it may cancel out the fact that free players will get to be VIPs but I would like to thank those people who do buy passes because you support this game I don't buy passes myself because my parents don't like spending money on games anyways. (and between upcoming bills for me, its impossible I really never have extra money) but paying players will have their VIPs still. When I was new I hated that you could only earn divines with passes and VIP required you to be in a top ranking or you to have bought 100 passes (still questioning, if you buy 100 passes do you get the VIP account or do you still pay 10 passes?) Anyways, sure it makes it hard for us non-pass buying players but nothing really comes easy in life I enjoy playing the game and getting my 1 pass a month to go buy a new GA or purchase a BMI. I really think this new update with the passes is such a steal because now I can get ten new GA horses every three days instead of waiting a whole month to get one and I have to do little work to get it also! These pass changes don't sound like the worst thing to me, but thats just my opinion.

After this change.. bye bye to at least 20 passes per month for me on my CA account. Not to mention the loss of roughly 40 items I always find useful in one way or another.

wecan donate a BM if we can't complete a pinata objective like in one of the events we had recently. We'll have to see if there will be a limit on that as it would be pretty easy to skip objectives if you had loads of BM items you don't use *ehm...P.Strokes*

Sorry if I missed it, but is it known if horns will be used yet?

pinata promo....can someone please repost them or tell me what page they are on? Thanks!
