[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 *#*#*#*

psdraftlady, the first coat you show is not retired.
By Retired breeder, 10th June 2009 17:15:01
It seems like a LOT of coats have been retired all of a sudden. Does Howrse sometimes go through and retire coats - just to free up space, or is it always the decision of the coat creator. (Other than situations of copyright violation, of course.)

Hello my fellow collector's!!! Yes, there were about 15 or so Retired yesterday.....it took a few hour's, but I have my collection updated now, if you have time, look through them to see them all....LOTS of paint coat's, a few of the orage flame one's, the green nature coat.....too many to list--I have a retired collection under every tab, they are listed 1st (except under other, they are a few page's in) all listed as Z *name RETIRED Now that I have bought so many===I am Howrse poor----just as in real life...lol I am willing to do trade's or sale's if you like something!! Have fun & Happy Hunting!

Maranatha----my understanding is yes---they can retired them randomly too. Usually it's a retired breeder or a breeder choosing to pull them.

You can't get a black pearl... they are only available through the black market at certain times and they are not an item you can keep to use later, you must use them at the time.

Jaguar,

Can you provide some official information on the retiring of a coat? With the many that went away this week, it's caused me to wonder.

When the creator wishes to retire a coat, how do they do it? Do they have a button they push, or . . .? And when they initiate the process, does it happen immediately, or does it happen at some set day in the future when howrse makes an update and pulls all the retirees?

Does howrse make the decision to retire coats for other than copywrite violations? If so, how are the coats selected? Those that are the oldest? Or that have been used often or not very much?

I'd love to understand the process!

That's just a sleipnir. They look like that anyway, it's not a GA coat.
any idea why it was removed?

psdraftlady, the 4th one you showed is not retired, I have it and I still see the coat in the black market.
By Retired breeder, 12th June 2009 22:17:43
Ohh, sorry, I didn't see yuo post the second one.

these one is retired



Since Howrse reserves the right to refuse a coat for any reason and for understandable reasons won't expand on that, I doubt we're going to get detailed information on why they deactivate coats. I would imagine most are copyright violations, especially if the coat disappears from the game entirely.

If the artist wants to disable their own coat, it's just a button they press, but all the horses who already have the coat get to keep it. I believe the coat can be reactivated with the same ease, although not having deactivated any of my coats, I couldn't say for sure.

I am confused... when I click on my horse with Blackwind, it doesn't show (supposed to mean it's retired) but when I search through the coats, it's still available...
By Retired breeder, 12th June 2009 23:37:46
Finally got this one! (Well, I have to spend my passes on something, right?...) default smiley :d

By Retired breeder, 12th June 2009 23:39:57
