I would love those things too and would be a great addition to the game, unfortunately it wont happen :(

Your probaby right,but i think if we put our ideas down maybe Hrf will get an idea of what the players would like to see in the future,obviously these additions would not be soon,but maybe in the not to distant future.I know it costs alot of money to make these changes,but feel it would be worth it.

stevic11

I also think that if you buy a new horse and you are paying the 17 500points to vet it,it should not come back any worse.
For example if hrf make it that there is say a 8 to 10% chance that if you vet a horse it will come back a little better but not worse,i think firstly they would benefit as most trainers would buy the horse at 25 000points and vet aswell at 17 500points as they know it wont come back worse.They would make more profit as i am sure almost all trainers would vet their horses knowing they are paying 17 500points but could get a even better horse back.

How about single races that aren't claiming races

Yes like an insta tournament just one G1 race but not a claimer.

It's always good to have ideas and a wish list in regards to this game. Sure, many have been presented before, but a new member wouldn't know this. Positive participation on this forum is good for all. And someday, some of our ideas will be implimented.
I agree with what Stevic said about the Vet. This is something that I've brought up before. Personally, I don;t like how it's set up now, so never vet any of my horses. They should never come back worse. JMHO

Nothing. Don't change a thing. The game is fine the way it is. Whatever changes that have been made to the game haven't always been good ones. Leave it alone.
Still laughing at you people's desire to change or "improve" the vet. Rum, you are in the minority about vetting. Take a look at the heavy breeders. When jbcri breeds a 93.4, do you think he says "hmmm, let's give it a shot in blues" or "vet the pig, I need a monster". Do you think brianshaw thinks the vet is awful ?? The vet gave him Lord Outstanding. HRF posted a list of the best horses who were vetted. The list had nearly every top horse on it. There is a huge market for vetting, which you people either don't want to believe or can't believe. It isn't going to change.
For those that truly understand the game, vetting makes sense. You are basically getting a brand new horse bred, for 7500 points cheaper. If you aren't happy with the original horse only a fool wouldn't vet it. You save 7500 points. With the rising costs of the game, it only makes sense.

Is like winning the Powerball. I only have 1 vet that worked so good I can remember it. Went from a 105ish to a 138.3, besides that all I can remember is terrible results.

This post is for people that have something posotive to add to the game and put there ideas down on ways to better improve the game,we also know that these comments will be noticed by hrf and maybe sometime in the future some might even be available.You keep going on about how things wont change and how most people are happy with the vet the way he is,i realy dont know where you get your information from because most people have nothing good to say about the vet at all.If Zenyetta was taken to the vet and came back with three legs a very bad limp and a terrible cough then im pretty sure that that vet would never practise his trade again.So if the game is suppised to be so realistic then suerly the vetting has got to be looked at.As for people using the vet well good luck to them but if your horse went to the vet and would not come back worse and there was an 8 to 10% chance you may increase its sr then everyone would vet,it is not difficult to work out.

As it says in the post please do not put negative posts up all we wanted to do was to get some ideas put forward if this does not interest you then keep you thaughts to yourself.

stevic11

Flyingdaaka posts to help assist players in the game. It isn't fair to let them see only information that is misleading. Flyingdaaka's post isn't negative. It is realistic. That is what is so upsetting. The negativity doesn't get to you stevic, it's the reality that does.

~~ Forum participation: Dealing with the mentally insane ~~

I re looked at my stable and I have 1 vetted horse the one I mentioned in my stable that is good. So the rest that run in generals are all non vetted horses.

I am not challenging what other trainers think, or do as far as vetting their horses. If it works for them, that's great. I'm merely expressing my personal feelings on this subject. The bottom ,line is, you either like it or don't like it. Use it , or don't use it.
Btw, Daaka, the talk behind the scenes says you're working for HRF. LOL Just a rumor.
Anyway, thianks for your post and opinions and for presenting them in a more positive manner. That's appreciated and good for "our" forum discussions.

Firstly no information posted on this forum is misleading it is mearly each trainers point of view.Reality my friend is bettering the game and this will def happen in the future,so i cannot see how putting ideas down in the forums is negative or misleading.

Another thing nothing gets to me,am enjoying the game but will air my views when i please.Have a lovely day.

stevic11

As far as I could figure out, HRF has about 17,000 members. I may be wrong, but it's high. Isn't it someting that someone is a self appointed spokesperson for the entire community. Kind of the, I'm right, you're wrong attitude.
Personally, Stevic, I feel that HRF would make a lot more money off of the vet part of game, if they'd utilise our way of thinking on this subject. JMHO A lot more money. I think this has to be re-thought. JMHO

Yes i could not agree more,if you vetted and knew your horse would not come back any worse everyone would vet and hope they got that 8 to 10%.Hrf would profit and everyone would be happy.

stevic11

17,000 members to the whole world? HAHA

By the time we get to 100K members which is a small number we will all be dead. LOL

say something to flyingleapster, but it seems like the thread only gets deleted if you say something back to him him the way he talks to everyone else.....everyone knows whats going on here.....anyways, guys, those are good ideas for the game, but it will not ever happen here....Ive brought up those same Ideas over and over and over and over again for 2 years with no results of one Idea being put into the game....the only bad thing is after a while the game will become stale in my opinion.....back to flyingleapster , how many times have u seen his post get deleted? I count none, how many post have you seen taken down from the result of others firing back at him >? multible....do u guys see the tie in? .........

Thanks for your comments,i think if we keep putting our ideas forward maybe in the near future some of them will be added to the game,i just think we all need to stay posotive and keep on putting our ideas forward and who knows maybe soon we will get some posotive results in return.

stevic11

go to my blog, I have written several Ideas to the game, you can add some if you want .... go to , ...>>>

http://www.horseracegame.com/community/content/blogs/ruffiano/02-08-2010...

Auctions and private sales would be nice.
Match races in the buddy challenge.

you people start getting better horses in your stables. I can say for sure I have 10-15 horses in my stable if I place them in the correct tourney they will finish 1st or 2nd in the final.

I definetly see the tie in, Ruffiano, and have never once seen his harrasment posts deleted, or seen him punished. No warnings. No nothing. He gets awy with murder and they let him, for whatever reason. One has to wonder why he is sooooooo addiment about his stand on vet visits??? Something's up.

Interesting, JB. I'll keep that in mind. NLOL

"One has to wonder why he is sooooooo addiment about his stand on"

Thats because Flyingdaaka has been vetted himself, he was born a women.

Maybe flyindaaka is the vet.

stevic11

1) I would like for us to be able to select our jockey in trainer tournies. For example jockeys have certain characteristics, you have rail guys, aggressive, etc. You pick the jockey that fits your horse. Thats if my next idea doesnt work
2) If we could ride our own horse in the trainer game,

this to me would make this game a perfect 10. (If you cant make the race, which would be live, you can fall back on my #2 idea.

3) The Jockey game as mentioned by many people before , we should not be capped to 500 points on races, especially for VIPS.
4) Vet needs to have a license to practice
5) Sell our horses, not to HRF but with peers.

Great ideas.

Oh, I see. I wasn't aware of that. Things are starting to fall into place. Gosh, you never know.

I know this is wacked out but lol, I think the answer to fixing the jockey tournaments from the reinstal tactic is, instead of playing the tourneys through quickstart, place a special tournament button/link on the game (like there used to be, but never used) and instead of people picking their own horses to ride in the tournaments, make it where its by random....in real life , all the jockeys dont get to ride whatever horse they want, they are hired to ride if they are lucky enough..If u watch the show Jockeys, then you would know how that works...I think this would be fun and challenging....or atleast add random ride jockey tournaments to the list...I would join everyone of them......

I like that idea think it would be better than the current system and much more fun.

Gosh, Stevic, I named one of my new 2 year olds, Hatchet Man. I must have been thinking of our vet. I think you're onto something.
I'll never vet him, so he should race with all four legs attached. LOL

Dont blame you,keep the animal in one piece is what i say.Let our good Dr Hyde near it and it will hobble back to your stable.

sooooo i guess im stupid but i dont see whats going on.

Dakka is who he is, he tells it how he feels, and although i dont always likw how he treats people, you know how he feels ans where he stands. Its been the same since ive been here so atleast he is wishy washy, changing from one side to the other week after week.

I may not like his ways but why not just come out and say what you thinks instead of the "do you see the conection" BS

JTW

Read what i want to say not what i type, my fingers gont go right sometimes.

JTW

Newbie

Does your fingers go left? LOL

he gets to say what he wants to say, why cant we ? I dont see how he gets that special place no one else can? I dont get it..just cause ur a born a-hole, its ok to be ?

Because JTW, when somebody speaks their mind, crybabies like you come out of the woodwork and cry to Puddles that they're being "abused".
How's that for honesty?

~~ 8/26/2010 Apple Award Winner ~~

Its a decent try at honesty is thats what you thiink but you are mistaken. I didnt run to anyone I was just going to leave and stayed because the awesome community members had back and made relize that it was OK to have made a mistake. I seeked help from the people that offered INCLUDING YOU because i respect your opinion on capping.

So why the personal attack on me, i dont know, i thought I apologized to you multiple times, and we put this behind us but i was wrong i guess and need to look behind me for the knife.

I guess they were right you do act nice to people and then slam then when you get a chance

JTW

Of course "they're" right. They're ALWAYS right. I wrote to you in PM what it was about. I need not mention any more, but I had to respond. I've been holding it in for two weeks and that's not healthy. Best thing to do now is to just leave each other alone for a while. I said my peace and if you like, I'll say no more. But make sure you don't either.

One thing that you always misunderstood was that I NEVER blamed you for that final with Come Along. I KNOW it was your first time. I have ALWAYS put the blame on HRF for giving a first time handicapper such a big final. I've said that so many times and you still went on and on about it.

~~ 8/26/2010 Apple Award Winner ~~

You never blamed me? Then what exactly is it your holding in??? What have i done to you?? Nothing, you just cant get over one RACE. I relize it was a big race, but ive apologized soooooooooo many time.

You answered everything in the email??? Well here they are. Mine to you and your response.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
You really were a person who i respected but i was wrong. Why talk to me like we are friends and then trash me i the forums? Saying im a crybaby? Very sorry jay but this time its for misjudging you. im very sorry you feel that way about me. I didnt relize you felt the need to call someone out in the forum just to make yourself look big n bad in front of the boys.

Sorry i offened you AGAIN and wont contact you again

JTW
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I've ALWAYS tried to talk to you as a friend, but everytime I do, It's YOU that trashs ME. First you tell me IN THE PUBLIC FORUMS that I'm not a man. Then you ride me for a small joke about a woman that was born 150 years ago. I still answered back with friendliness. But I can't do it any longer. I've been ready to explode with you for the last two weeks and I couldn't hold it in any longer.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

So now tell me what ive done to you other then say that i thought the helen keller joke was in poor taste but that not a perdonal attack, Its my opinion.

Thats not the problem at all its a bunch of smoke blowing and BS to hide the fact that your still mad over MY VERY FIRST RACE I CAPPED. As you know you click the race and it comes up so i had know way to know it was that big. I gave it my best shot i could at that time.

ONE last time im sorry jay. im sorry i wasnt better prepared to handle that race. Im sorry that you took offense to the fact that i thought the joke was in poor taste but LETS BE HONEST HERE. If that would have upset you then you wouldve said something right then.

Then you say "But make sure you don't either". The day you tell me to make sure i do or dont do anything is the day i become president. I had major respect for you but im not affraid of you Jay.

I droped it alone time ago and thought we had become friends but apprently you were just being fake and phony and thats ok. Good luck to you in the future, and hopefully you will relize i was trying to apologize and be a friend but you chose to hold a grudge. If and when you do just let me know because i dont hold grudges lifes to short.

JTW

For the 103rd billionth time. I DO NOT BLAME YOU FOR THE WAY YOU HANDICAPPED THAT RACE!!!!!! Why on Earth would I lie about that?

Yes it was the Helen Keller thing. Redterror came on a post or two before I said that and typed the most awful stuff I've ever read in here. I MYSELF was actually offended by it. Flyingdaaka then made a Helen Keller Joke. And you said NOTHING to either of them. But I say something totally innocent about somebody that was born in the 19th century and I get a scolding from you.

And I was also a bit perturbed about you coming into the forums and saying that I wasn't a real man. Do you think you can say that to somebody and not get a response?!!!

I can't help but feel that you are a major game player. You want to see how many times you can get me to say it wasn't about the weights. Well it wasn't and it isn't. If you don't believe that then GFY.

The reason I didn't mention it sooner was because I was babying you. Seeing that you are such an immature, sensitive baby who is offended at everything I say. And I felt sorry for you. That's why I took the time to rehandicap all the races you did when you sent me them saying, "Is this good? Is this right? Is this ok?".
Damn, now I have to manage my stable, handicap my own races and get shat on for it, AND do your races too!!!! All the while absorbing insult after insult from you.

"Make sure you don't either" was my way of calling for a truce. Sometimes my Brooklynese sounds harsher then it actually is to soft sensitive ears such as yours. But you can forget about that now. You want a fight, and you got one, dear boy. You totally lost any chance of peace with me now by posting a PRIVATE message in public.

I like Daaka's posts for the most part. He thinks he's right all the time and that
can be annoying lol ... but often he is close to right .... counts in horse shoes and
hand granades.

I cant remember a Daaka post that I thought should have been deleted. Don't
remember him using profanity. He has called folks idiots and cheater's. Kinda
wish he had more solid facts before he throws those terms around.

Anway, some good suggestions on this thread.

Ps. Jay I remember it as you making the Hellen Keller joke. Cuz I giggled at it....

Despite all my ribbing & kidding around with Pedestool, he is one of the sharpest players on here, and I look forward to reading his posts. His sense of humor is above most of us and that's why he gets the rep he does. Read BETWEEN the lines, he is actually quite a cool dude.

Now Pregedise....Well that's another story. Funny how nobody ever complains about him.

Sam I responded to your feedback in challenge buddy. Let me know if it makes any sense.

Yes I did make the Helen Keller joke, but Daaka made one first and I just expanded it. lol

~~ 8/26/2010 Apple Award Winner ~~

Yes i said no real man would EVER tell woman to get the f$%^ out of my forum C^&T and thats what you did. Thats the low of the low to say to a woman. Saying that kinda crap about any woman shouldve have gotten you banned off her Jay, and you know it. So if your mad about that then thats just to bad because i would say the same thing to anyone in the same situation..

And yes i asked you to look over a few races because you offered to help and as i said before I RESPECTED YOU CAPPING.

The helen keller thing hit personal for me, so my opinion was it was tasteless. Sorry i scolded you i didnt mean to make you cry.

There you go again with the violence threats, again im not scared of you in the least so get over yourself already!!!!! And im not your Dear Boy. but you need this to feel like a big man then so be it.

JTW

Violence?!!! Are you mentally challenged? I'm asking seriously. No insult. If you are I apologize for everything.

~~ 8/26/2010 Apple Award Winner ~~

My only mental challenge is trying to carry on a bright intelliggent conversation with someone like you that openly demeans women in a public forum and takes the liberty to use the most degrading word you possible couldve uused.

Yet, you ask if IM the mentally challenged one................ummmm you may want to look in the miirror

JTW

What Violence do you speak of, Dear boy?

HA HA "Look in the mirror". Good comeback.
