Horse in auction that's not supposed to be there!
  • image
    Timber Night Ambush


    I'll chalk it up to a slip if the finger but I did not realize until too late that this baby is the auction. The horse is from the AtA program and is not supposed to leave my stable. I would appreciate no more people bidding on this horse.

    To whoever wins the bid on it, which should be @MF2, I'd like to buy the horse back from you at the full price of what you paid. I'll even sweeten the deal with an extra 1000hbs for your goodwill.

  • You can not request people do not bid on a horse. Horses in the public auction are for auction to everyone. You can, however, bid up the price as high as you can afford. It won't charge you for your own horse.
  • Free accounts can bid on their own horses? I did not know this.

  • You can also keep bidding it up over and over, I suggest you put it as high as you can afford. Not sure what would happen if you can't afford the bid, so try not to do that. :)
  • I popped it up as high as I can for right now. Crossing my fingers, toes, and eyes.

  • Saw someone else had bidder higher than you, hope my bid gets her, I would send her back to you.

  • Hope whoever gets him will sell back to you. If i had enough I would bid and sell back but out of my budget already
    Thanked by 1TimberRescue
  • I'll keep an eye on the bidding for you :) I can probably make a decent go of it to try to get her back to you. You could try PMing the people bidding just so they know about the situation?

  • We got this! :)
  • You guys are great! You're going through so much effort to get back a horse for a person you don't know from Adam's house cat. I can't think of any other online game I've played that the members would help each other out like this. Now I know why I've stuck with this game.

    It bugs me though. When I put a horse up for auction I go through the individual horse's profile so things like this don't happen. I also don't name the horses I intend to auction off. Since that horse's purpose is to sit there and earn points and I already know all that horses stats, there's precious little reason for me to even click into its profile. I don't even remember checking its profile at all for the past couple days. Imagine my surprise when I log in this morning to find and extra A there should be none.

  • Also... This horse's profile pic is different now as well.

  • I accidentally entered a wrong horse into the auction yesterday. I went to the public auction house, selected the horse I wanted to auction from the dropdown menu, and clicked enter. Nothing seemed to be happening so I clicked enter again. When I went back into my barn I noticed that I had the correct horse entered into the auction and an additional horse that I did not want to auction. Luckily, I was able to take the wrong horse back out of the auction at that point. I think what must have happened is that the page was just reloading slowly after I entered the first horse and when I got impatient and clicked enter a second time, it entered an additional horse. Lesson learned: Never get impatient and click the enter button a second time! :)

  • We love to help, most of us have been helped by others to get where we are... That is strange. If his name started with A I would say you night have clicked a few too many times, I have done that before, but that is odd. Sometimes admit does a refresh on horses. Hope everything goes well with you, and if you need any help just let us know. There is a limit of what you can request of us, but we try to be nice. :)
  • Actually I'd like you all to let me know how I can repay the kindness. Like I said, its rare that I see such kindness and I like it to be rewarded when it appears.

  • As far as the picture goes, was there white in his mane? That is the glitch and would have changed anyway.

    I would also like to say that if either kassierae, or MF2 had a chance to see this thread, I would bet my last dollar that either one would sell you the horse back in a heartbeat!

  • Aw, but it was so pretty! I liked the white stripes!

    I have no doubt about that. MF2 and kassierae are two more helpful members I've noticed on the forum.

  • Yes I absolutely would have given the horse back :)
  • And, Timber, pay it forward. When you can, you help someone out of a sticky situation, or to get started. That's how you pay us back!

  • That's actually the whole purpose of this account. It's a rescue barn to act as an alternative to the auction house for undesirable horses that aren't moving on the forum and the owner doesn't want them yummed. I'm still building up space and funds so I'm not live yet. Night Ambush was integral toward strengthening this stable.

    Anywhoo, when you're ready, I can give you your money back plus 1000hbs (I insist, it's the least i can do to stay true to my word)
