[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 *#*#*#*

@kitcat I prefer unicorns, since their foals can be sold for a decent price, but that's slowed down quite a bit. This is my favorite coat!

Evening! I have a question or two, but first a little background that will make my questions make a little more sense I think.

Most of my retired coats are from the 2007-2011 era when I was playing regularly, and most of them can be located in my "geldings" tab for curious parties, though none are for sale. At the end of each horse who has a retired coat's name is the number of remaining coats in the game, and over the past few years I generally update the number every couple of months. I've been playing more regularly in the past two months, so have been keeping closer track of the atrophy of these coats.

Which brings me to my first question- at the end or beginning of each month, are old inactive accounts deleted for server space? It seems like a lot of my older coats loose 3-5 copies near the beginning of the month.

Second and related question, is there a way the older GA coats are becoming retired, possibly as the creators' accounts are deleted for long inactivity? Of course I can't remember which horses/coats now, but in the last few months I've noticed two or three older GA coats that have been retired. These are coats created before the current way of running the black pearl, back when players could retire coats at their pleasure, not having to decide when submitting how many uses/unlimited use.

I realize this may be some of the info that has not been openly shared with players, just wondering if anyone else has noticed this or has knowledge on it. default smiley ;)

Thanks Elky! I found it on a 2007 foundie. It's such a graceful, yet powerful coat. I've never noticed it in sales before now, and my heart jumped when I found it in sales.

Yes some have retired when players have either deleted their account and/or they have been deleted by the game clearing space. These coats can also still be retired by the creator when they hit 100 uses.


There was a glitch a while back that affected coat count, i don't actively keep track of copies so haven't noticed the fluctuations (or the glitch) personally. Maybe i should start taking more notice default smiley :-))

I love this coat and I will always love this coat. I miss the hand-drawn/colored pencil look for coats compared to the digital coats.

So with the social media competition running, I thought it might be fun for those of us who don't do instagram to post our favourite RC/ray combos here instead? Of course we'd love to see the ones you've entered too of course!

These are mine i think - i've done links and pics as the screenshots will expire after x days.

New coats for me! Feeling so blessed - the howrse community can be unpleasant at times, but if you look in the right places that's not always true! default smiley (l)

Picked up a few coats recently, very excited about the first one because I've been wanting it for a long time!

That's actually due to a glitch that's affected every inactive player; if you look at any of the old preCS creators who haven't logged in for years, they all suddenly logged on in Nov 28, 2018.
