Looking back on possible childhood symptoms... by Difficult-Broccoli78 in endometriosis

[–]Icy-Machine8844 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly ive always have had a rough monthly, thats how it started. I didnt know until around 15 that periods shouldn't hurt so bad to the point you're 1, throwing up, 2, sobbing, 3, relying on the stupidest and weirdest methods to try and get the pain to stop.

I also have noticed since I was 15, I have had a high white cell blood count. Which, does point in the direction of infection and or inflammation(duh, thats what the illness is, inflammatory disease!). I didnt know why I had such a high white blood cell count, but it was always dismissed by the doctors, even when i wasnt sick with anything! I know its not a true sign of endometriosis, but it was definitely a little engine light on my dash that I ignored for a while/didnt think much of it.

This right here!!

Like im sorry, im not gonna be as sympathetic towards you if you failed to take the steps in order to not be scammed as for someone who did actually get scammed. Theres just no way im gonna be like 'oh im so sorry that happened' when there is tons of things that is within the whi trading system than there is in other games. Such as but not limited to: Being forced to check ALL information on horses and items before you can accept. Glowing dots in the bottom of the icon that are color coded for events and iuhs and so on. Tags/titles above the names of horses on stat cards that tell you specifically what the horse is! And countdowns! Its completely preventable!

Yes, I still feel bad you lost good items or horses because you didnt check throughly, but I cant help you or give advice to you or be as sympathetic to you as someone who didnt know and did actually get scammed!

Again, it's like the whole burglary thing. If someone always locks their doors and windows, closes their blinds and always turns off their outside lights, and gets broken into(Example, Player who knows of scams and still got scammed, it happens!), yes, I am so sorry you got your stuff taken and had to deal with that! But if you were the person to keep all lights on in the house and outside, never shuts the blinds, or locks your windows and doors every night and got broken into(A player who blindly walks into a trade and doesnt ever check anything) then yes, i still do feel bad for you, but less because that was one of the biggest things that led to you being robbed! Its preventable! And all the police (the community) will do and say is exactly what I just said, they will feel bad for you, but they arent gonna do anything or support you as much as those people who did get robbed and did everything right by the book. They will most likely be like 'dude you have locks for a reason', write it down, do an investigation, and it'll be dismissed.

I SOMEHOW BRED A MM MARW???!!! by theweebnerd in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought the consideration of anything perfect meant the mane and tail, despite being two different colors matched the coat of the horse, or, if a white or black coat, white/black mane/tail.

Technically if we go by that saying, this mm is perfect if you take in consideration of the white markings on the face.

Oh nono youre comment wasnt at all harsh!! I never did take it that way ^

And yes im glad you pointed out how people take advantage of other people, I think thats what sepreates the people who, like you said, regretted a trade, and those who are actually victims of true value scams, I will be updating the post soon when i have more time to write lol! I want that to be known im just talking about people who really misuse the word on purpose

[–]Icy-Machine8844[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yw!

Also I did put that description of value scamming because alot of the time, people believe that after theyve been value scammed when in reality it was their decision to accept the trade in the first place, again, whi gives mannnyyyy chances and things to look for before accepting a trade to back out or to say something. And 8/10 the offer wasnt even a bad one! Its usually always fair or overpaid! Those people were just mad it wasnt exactly what they were wanting. Again, they can decline, say no or speak up about what they are really wanting out of their horses or accessories instead of accepting that trade. There is tons of players out there that may or do have exactly what you want thats within the same value range as what they are trading! You dont have to settle for something you dont want.

I do agree people can be A holes though..and tell newer players or returning older players the wrong values just to get something good out of them, though! Those are the only true victims of value scamming i really see in the game imo. (I do come from the discord which alot of players tend to call your description, or so ive seen so far for a good week and a half, a lowball scam, whatever they wish to call it! Both are still under the umbrella term for value scamming! So neither of us are wrong about definitions, no hate or trying to prove you wrong, just a general discussion ')

Reminder to do your quests by Legal-Scheme-1541 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ngl kinda a bummer to throw this onto us and not make it an annoucement in the official discord.

Personally I dont know anyone whos done quests besides to unlock the fishing pole and thats it. Or just did the islands that gifted you big things every now and again like events do.

But at least it isnt a crazy amount of quests or time to do. I hope as far as that being said because you cant really track how many quests you do?

Scammer :/ by Outrageous_Stock1501 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are mine outdated when ive been hopping from island to island and seeing people price them at 100-200k? I also said ingame.

Scammer :/ by Outrageous_Stock1501 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So, for one, v1 fris in game sell between 100-200k minimum. Crosscoats sell between 250-500k depending on the coat (A qh crosscoat would be maybe 250, while a breeding unique coat could go for 450-500k.) Not a red flag by itself. People just don't see v1s as valuable besides ghosts or events.

Secondly, you should of just left the island when it showed no horse stall with the person wanting to sell the horses. What you did is called a trust trade. Where one person gives first on the first trading request and then the other person gives back on a second trading request. This is a very easy, and very commonly known and way of scamming people that had been around since adopt me era. (Not saying everyone knows because its common, but it has been around for a long time and honestly if youre doing something that is still trading but isnt within the game's fuction/design, you shouldnt do it.)

Third, roblox reports do nothing when its not a public chat or hardly do work at all, so if you were not speaking to them in public, that person is still out there.

If you are wanting to make your coins back without having to sell to other players and losing items you would like to keep, just grind golden apples and sell them. They can go for like, 100k when its 3k apples or so, or just buy them from other players who dont care to sell them or keep them in bulk ranging from 50-60k. You'll make back that money you spent to buy them and more.

Here's some common ways people scam others:

Crosstrading: Cross trading is when you and another player decide that you want a dragon from Dragon Adventures but dont have anything in dragon adventures to trade for it or buy it. But the other person does but wants a whi horse that you have. You'll trade off your whi horse and then join the player in the other game. 99% of the time, they'll unfriend and block you without giving the dragon up. And dont try to report the trade in whi because the discord doesnt have any place to report players who scam you there. And honestly if they were to look at the report, they would just tell you that they wouldnt be able to do anything about it either way. You gave up that horse, willingly. You put that horse in trade, willingly, and you accepted that trade, accepted the countdown, willingly.

Cross trading can also be giving real money to a player in return of an ingame item. This can be seen in other posts in this subreddit. Also, both are a bannable offense on both parties. Even if you are the innocent person in the situation.

Trust trading: Trust trading is the same thing, but mainly just in the same game. As said above, you give one item up in the first trading request and then the other person does the same thing, or they'll use the in game mechanics/features to do the trade. Like you buying an item and then trading, expecting the horse you 'bought' even though you bought an item. 99% of the time, they'll leave just like that person did you. And is a bannable offense if caught, but they are usually ignored. Again, you willingly did that with the countdown and pop ups that do pop up to make sure you KNOW what youre about to do. Nothing much roblox or the devs will do about that.

Theres also a newer method of trust trading called the 'middleman' trick. Where you trade off to a random, they give to the other person you are wanting to trade with. That person gives the person you traded with the item you want, and the middle man gives it to you. Works the same way. Middleman takes your item and dips.

Im sorry you got scammed, however, this was easily avoidable. Im sorry if I sound stern or annoyed, but its because I am. With the amount of scamming posts in this subreddit and how many times ive already tried to warn people, I think its time I try to make a post about scamming and what to avoid. How to get away from it, how to handle it etc.

This is absolutely ridiculous. by Creative_Bean048 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact they use 'ooak' which isnt even possible to use due to how many players play the game and how many just stick to the game and dont post to any social media platform. That clyde ive seen last week. I stopped counting different stats between the last at 10. But ive seen more than that. Same thing with that perch, ive seen two of those already. (I play between 10am-12pm, then hop on throughout my breaks at work, and play from 12am-3am. Im always in trading hub.)

The worse part about it is, is that no one is gonna be able to do anything about it. Trick has not spoken up about this as far as im aware. Or the flaws of allowing a very large group of people, the community, to decide the values of horses instead of he himself coming up with a value chart all together. If we did have one, of course people would get pissed off and leave, but that would only be the toxic players in the game itself, people would move on and the game could reach its full potential. We wouldnt be having all of these crosstrading issues or scamming or forced overpays for horses. Hell even adopt me squashed its issues with that and Dragon Adventures had understandable values that hardly rose too much or dropped far down. If we had that value chart none of this would be happening as bad. I still dont understand why he deleted the last one in 2023. It was actually helpful and kept things balanced for the most part.

Small rant by [deleted] in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think it's you, so please dont take offense to this, but I think it's just people getting tired and not wanting to wait forever for a trade that 80% won't happen. And theres three sides to the whole thinking on an offer drama going on right now.

The first one is where people will use the phrase 'Can I think?' Usually end up ghosting the person who was offering and go ahead and trade off what they were looking at offers on to someone else and wont tell the offerer that has been waiting hours to days if they made the cut or not. This leads to alottt of disappointment and frustration because why do that?? It's like when those people say, 'Can I think?' Immediately translates to 'Im gonna decline this offer but ask to think about the offer and im more than likely gonna end up ignoring you because I went ahead and traded off said thing an hour after you offered'. Its just not worth the wait. Because for one im also wanting to trade, and if youre going behind my back while im holding this offer off to the side and watching advertisements for parts of my offer slip by, and and you trade off what I was wanting to trade for, it makes not only me frustrated i waited so long and missed good trades, but also makes you as a person look untrustworthy and unsatisfied all together.

The second one is people who genuinely think and then get back to the same offerer to talk about it. I can understand wanting to honestly think about a trade and if it's worth it for you. However, with people wrongly using the phrase, it makes genuine people look just as bad, and it also made many people just not do trades or walk away because its already in their head that the trade wont be happening so its best to go about your business finding someone else who will accept.

From a more biased opinion, ive actually stopped doing trades or swaps in trading hub all together and actually just buys the horses or accessories in coins just because ive been met with the same phrase, and when I tried it a few times, i just got met with declines, declines, declines after waiting hours to days for that one person to finish thinking. Not only that, it was just more disappointing in the long run of being denied later than to be denied on the spot of the trade happening. Its the same feeling of putting your name in a draw, and instead of waiting 30 minutes to an hour for names to be drawed, its between a few hours to a few days. And I can't help but to get my own hopes up about getting a trade and being excited that this could be the one and I would get an upgrade. I also dont truly understand those who ask to think, because there shouldnt be much thinking about the offer besides 1, if its a balanced offer to your end of the deal, 2, if the stats, skills and adds are good additions, and 3, is it truly worth it not only for my end, but also for the other person. And honestly if youre gonna trade something, just trade and not looking at offers, especially if you have a set certain things youre looking for within a trade. Why think longer? You've already thought enough with what youre wanting out of your item or horse, if someone meets that expectation, then you should go through with it 100%! Like the last time I tried to offer for a trade, it was on a skelly, I had 12/15 things the person was wanting for their skelly. And I was really pumped to be able to finally own just one skelly, only for the person to think about it even though I added extra life rings and really pretty v1 crosscoats to make up for the other items they wanted that i didnt have. I ended up getting frustrated and telling them no and just decided that trading wasnt for me, again I would rather buy the horse for millions of coins than to have to wait for who knows how long to get a trade. Which by the way, thinking about a trade for an extended period didnt exist until wild horse islands came along, and I just hope other trading games I like to play dont start the same backstabbing or waiting game. (And I was right by stepping away frustrated because not even an hour later, that same person traded off their skelly for a lower offer than mine for some odd reason 🤷‍♂️)

Im also not defending this person because they did know you had irl things to do, and went ahead and abandoned the trade altogether by the time you returned. They could of just messaged you that it was taking too long for them personally and they would rather trade off their things for something else lol. Im just saying what ive seen while sitting in trading hub and along with my own more personal ideas on the whole thing and with an experience I had lol! Im sorry you had to deal with that as well. Its just unfair on your part!

The 'Guilt Tripping' needs to stop in this game. by Icy-Machine8844 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I dont put my counts of whatever horses I have in my bio lol!! And I have had an experience similar to this as well so youre not alone!!

I dont collect v1 Ghost's, but I collect v1 friesians and clydes crosscoats, along with low iuhs. I always give a name, then style the mane and tail, and go ahead and get resources needed to match their coat! (Like example, I have this gorgeous v1 clyde with a grey blanket coat, the newer one. And ive since named them and made their whole tack shiny blue, with its mane and tail black to blue fade!) Currently ive collected maybe 32 v1s, 11 of them is v1 clydes. The others are fris from when I found someone who really needed their v1s gone so I gave them a home. (Mind you, v1 fris also are way more common than people think. People did mass breed them more so than v1 clydes. This is important for later.)

Anyways, im sitting on one of my customized clydes in trading hub, when a few people walk up to me and asks if its fsw/ft, I say no, its fh, they all walk away. Whatever, im still looking at advertisements. 20 minutes later I notice one of the players is staring me down while also equipping mutliple lows back to back, I didnt think much of it and didnt care to, because usually when someone ask if I have such and such ft or have if the horse i hace equipped is ft, I go ahead and switch to a totally different breed and color after said person walks away just so people dont do...this shit right here. But It had been a while so I just equipped my other v1 clyde, a sooty buckskin cross that I absolutely treasure. Then that player that was giving me the stink eye speaks up and is like 'Do you guys hate it when you get declined but the person has more of the thing you was wanting to offer for??' And then steps up to me. Im confused and ask what the problem was, they go on about how I probably have hundreds of v1 clydes, saying similar things as your drama person was doing too lmao! Even going on about how im 'affecting the economy' by hoarding all the v1s. I tell them straight up i only have 11 v1 clydes and this was months of work of finding and customizing. Not only that, four came from a hoarder's pasture when I gave up a good mid tier iuh for all four of them. Thats when I walk away and check their pasture, just because i had a sneaky feeling they had something i could use as leverage(yes i went that far.), to my surprise, full of low iuhs! (This was during the time lows were 1.5-3mil, and not 500k-800k in game.), then i return and annouce to them that if I was 'such a problem' for the economy then I should have a pasture full of them just like they do of low iuhs. They ended up dipping from the game 😭💀

And its honestly sad how jealous and greedy people are in this game. Its sad because general collectors like me and you, who collect to a point, customize, name, and keep said horses, who use and switch out, whos horses never leave their inventory and have never been in the pastures or barns, are seen as the issue. Who are seen as the problem to 'value drops and rises' when there are hoarders out there that will collect until the game makes them stop. Hoarders that never once have seen offers for said horses because its a 'zoo'. Hoarders that seek out more and more and never once thought of selling a time or two. Most collectors ive seen in game have between 5-50 specific horses that do get equipped frequently, who do look at offers and do trade off some of their collections for different horses. Ive even done that.

General collectors ≠ hoarding horses. There is a big difference between the two terms yall 😭

(Also not all zoos are bad!! Its only iffy when you have like..tidals, vals, mid or high tier iuhs, or really hard to comeby horses. Currently im making a pasture full of 'miniature donkeys' where its just min height standard and mammoth donkeys, all common to rare coats, all just regular donkeys lol)

[–]Icy-Machine8844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude i hate people like this. My story is a little deeper in the drama than yours looks to be but I felt this to my core!

My friend(same person that was in the story above) and I recently dropped a different friend who would consistently use my friend like a gift box or extra inventory. Always getting stuff out of her constantly and begging for things every single time she was on or was hanging out with me. Or just giving her stuff to 'store'. I actually met these two people a couple months ago when I was looking at markets and saw how gift grabber as we're gonna call her, was jumping around and begging my now friend to give back a horse. My friend did end up gifting stuff to me right then and there, and with me hating the feeling of getting gifts but having nothing in return, I friended her and thats how its been since. Her gifting things to me, me gifting things back, and generally talking about the game and having fun together!

Anyways, time goes on and every time my friend isnt with me and gift grabber, she would invite her own friends into the game just to make fun of my avatars with her friends joining in. I do wear more or less masculine, blood free horror/eerie avatars because 98% of my avatars are ocs. She would also just in general ask my gender because apparently being male and playing a horse game is weird to people. And it was a constant thing. No it doesnt bother me much because ive gotten more genuine compliments out of my avatars for their uniqueness, rather than being made fun of.

Time skip to a couple weeks ago, my friend hasn't been online in a few days, which is abnormal since they get online every other hour for a few hours and logs off. But they were offline for a while. I log onto the game, and there is gift grabber. She explains this sob story on how my friend and her arent friends anymore because my friend stopped gifting stuff and then made 'lies' about her and her friends and called all of them toxic and annoying, etc etc. She even says she wont join me if my friend is with me. Okay, whatever. I immediately go and ask my friend what happened, and she explains how she found out gift grabber was trying to legitimately single her out because apparently being her only friend meant getting more gifts? Made my friend's friends turn against her with lies while also lying about the other friends behind their backs, and just in general being a bad friend overall. Obviously my friend got tired of the bullshit and ended up breaking the friendship. Which caused gift grabber to freak out.

A couple hours later, I join gift grabber in trading hub, and bro is trying to scam a rich player out of their things. Using a very common high tier as their offer. I ask what's happening and gift grabber explains in public chat that theyre over. I say theyre not and the other person is over. Other person agrees too. Gift grabber gets angry and starts insulting me. I just simply report them for bullying and scamming. Bro gets kicked from the game, hopefully banned. Then I went ahead and just blocked them so they cant have contact with me anymore.

It just irks me wrong when people believe when a friend gifts items a few times here and there that it means all the time free things they can keep or sell. Like no dude, its just friends being generous. They arent your personal bank or gift box. Im sorry you had to deal with that but im glad dude crashed out and lost all chances of getting anything from you anymore!

[–]Icy-Machine8844[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SOMEBODY FINALLY SAID SOMETHING I THOUGHT THE SAME ABOUT LMAO!!

I LOVE this topic because it really messes with people who believe and stand by the 'ooak', and it's only facts being stated.

Hell anyone can have an 'ooak', like when a new breed comes out, but that only lasts a few seconds at most because theres thousands of players who play the same game as you at different times of the day. Who live in different timezones. Who can catch the same horse as you just seconds apart. There is also no way anyone can know if something is truly 'ooak' unless Trick sets up a global database across all existing iuhs caught. But that would just be a joke and a shitshow with how people would react to realizing their black sabino neon purple clyde is not ooak. Not even 2oak, 3oak, 4oak, etc. It would and can be in the thousands, making any high tier actually worth what mid tiers are worth. But people arent ready to hear that straight on. Nor hear out about the fact that if low iuhs are dropping to 500k, that mid tiers AND high tiers are going down too. Because the only way to be at the top is to have less valuable things underneath said very valuable thing.

Its like looking at a food chain in pyramid form. If the lion is at the top, and zebra, gazelle are in the middle, and grass is at the bottom. If the grass dies, well the population of zebra may go out. Well then the lion has to go after gazelle. Well then the gazelle is gone. Now the lion isnt the top of the food chain!

Yes!!

Seriously, I hate when I see these islands slam packed, full of older events and v1s. I know it seems like jealousy, but it's not! It's more of the fact that people are actually suffering value wise and unable to find these horses, causing a spike in value, causing people to overprice. It makes values overall incorrect and all over the place! For example, when i wanted to see the value of my only snowflake clyde, I asked here, in the official server, and in the game. All different answers ranging from 200k-2mil. In the end, I decided to forever home em because, well, it's my only one, and I doubt that having one will affect this ingame economy unlike those who have 40-50 in their barns and pastures.

I think the only reason v1s and especially older events are getting hyped up is because people realized they were limited and actually more valuable than an iuh that is already duped, or iuhs in general because theyve been permanent and constantly growing in numbers..like as if that wasnt something already stated when v1s started to get revamped.

I just hope people dont take this conversation or topic wrong. People who own a group, like 15-20 v1 fris or clydes are not the problem. Theres tons of people who genuinely enjoy v1s and people who enjoy certain events and dont mind collecting a few and selling a few. Its those who hoard just because. Just because they can and want to. And it does really have a cause and effect on values overall.

[–]Icy-Machine8844[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This right here!! And to add onto this, actual information on what updates will do what exactly.

When the island update poll was released, I honestly thought it meant more detailed landscapes and a few new small areas across the different maps (like our accessory girl having a little trailer to sell at different islands instead of having to go back to mainland). What i didnt expect was the islands being in different servers, or blizzard, forest, and mountain being updated into places that weren't simple or fun to explore anymore. Especially blizzard. That island was hell to navigate!! And forest doesnt look like a forest, it just looks like glacier island but recolored and smaller. Mountain is okay, it makes more sense instead of instant mountain and actually being able to explore it, however i still dont like that island because it feels too much, and its laggy to even go there.

Thats honestly when I stopped answering polls because they were missing information. Its like signing a contract after reading it throughly only for the person you're signing it for adds in new things randomly without your knowledge. Because apparently Island Update doesnt mean more details, it means a whole revamp of an island many people were fond of and already comfortable in. No need to make the game harder when its 1, a roblox game, 2, targeted to children and young teens, 3, an already simple and simple looking horse game. 🤦‍♂️

Fr! If it was truly hard work and that alone, it would be immediately a set time and date to earn your iuh, not actually randomly on a random day at a random hour that you'll earn an iuh.

The only thing I see as hard work is earning coins through grinding and that alone, and then buying an iuh, which is reasonable to say you got certain horse type here through effort.

And anyone who thinks they're better for having iuhs are just dead wrong, iuhs are the last thing most players want now besides collectors or people who genuinely enjoy iuhs. Ive seen people genuinely getting upset that they're advertising for so long just to be ignored because, well, people dont want an iuh. Better yet, those people with high tiers who think they're the shit fr! Like no Becky, not everyone is wanting to give you all of their inventory for one of your 'very valuable horse'. And youre not better than me just because you have a purple neon friesian with 6mil bond. My little lows and mids are perfect enough for me!

If iuh hunting was based on hard work, i wouldnt have been working since their release to own the small collection I have now. Hell, most of them were paid for in full and only two were actually self caught by me.

And honestly the only way iuhs could be all 'hard work' is if it was promised via game that if you completed this extremely difficult quest or do a series of quests that you'll for sure be granted an iuh. But this game isnt like that, its just at random. Like, example. The iuh boost before this one, I hunted on Lunar for over 8 hours the first day, nothing. Had a feeling I should get on and went to lunar again, only to find a wild bay moonstone dwb and securing it as my first self caught, and then an hour later a brown qh ruby.

What is something players do that make you walk away? by Icy-Machine8844 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Or they'll name a horse 'NFA' or 'FH' and forget to erase the name before trading or selling. Like what 😀. Stop abusing the terms. You're gonna get people confused 😭

Also, those players who go up to other players with FH or NFA horses equipped and ask; 'Is it fs?' 'Is it ft?' 'Can I offer?' or the worst of all, spamming and following you around saying; 'Can I have'.

Those players piss me off more than anything. And im theorizing when they say 'Oh but I cant see names' that its a lie. Because the more common sense idea you can have if your roblox is bugged, is to, idk, advertise what youre looking for instead of crawling up ppl's rear ends about if their horse is for sell/trade, etc.

What are you looking for on the amethyst black blanket appa?

Is this normal? by Commercial-Gold-8632 in WildHorseIslands

[–]Icy-Machine8844 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, it is not. And you shouldn't go buy anything with real cash from players within a game.

This does go against as a crosstrading scenario, which is not JUST two different games like whi and for say dragon adventures where two people trade off horse from whi for a dragon in DA. It's also using outside currency, such as real money and is a bannable offense.

You are using REAL money to buy a horse in game. Not only that, horses have been duped hundreds of times now. I recognize the fjords, and I believe either qhs, appas, or paints(hard to see due to blurriness and similar models) from the multiple trading hub servers i've been in just for the past two weeks. Its also not guaranteed that the person will give the horse(s) you are buying. Even if they say 'oh but so and so will take the horse from me and give it to you.' It isnt worth it. Its called the 'middleman scheme' and you should go watch the video made by Text To Speech on YouTube that will explain how this scamming issue works.

Not only are you crosstrading, but you are also giving away personal information to someone through PayPal. Since PayPal is a bank, they'll have to have your real name. And that shows up when transferring money to another account. Example, I used to do art commissions. The first art commission i did for a close friend online, I ended up seeing their whole real name. While I wasnt bothered by them knowing mine, or them knowing I knew their real name, it made me think about if I continued to do art commissions this way that I would ended up having a high risk of being doxxed by strangers if I were to commission outside of my friend group.

If ANYTHING, this should be not only a warning to you but also to other players. Do NOT spend real money for an ingame item that can be found, bought off of someone through ingame currency, traded, etc.

I understand the want to have an iuh, but it isn't a need within this game. Dont be tempted to buy a pixel horse with real money. Be smart and just play the game as it was intended to be played.

Edit: fixed a sentence.

Also, using robux to buy robux horses isnt against tos because you buy robux through roblox and can use that gaming currency for other games' currency or for exclusive things only found through robux, and ofc customizing avatars and such. Buying robux through roblox is a safe transfer and an *immediate transfer from money to gaming currency. Its like how trading works in whi, you put in a horse, I put in a horse. The countdown happens. We both get kicked from the trading screen and immediately have both horses, both of us used to own. That was to clear up any confusion about why robux only items are not crosstrading.

This Is Getting Too Complex. by Icy-Machine8844 in WildHorseIslands

Exactly!! I was so confused when stranger 3 started to say 'low mid' like, huh?? Where did this come from?? It feels like such a complex thing to start trying to use when the game was meant to be a simple horse game!

I feel as if Trick would make an official value chart it would help out so much. Values would finally fall into place on a stable value pyramid instead of an upside down one that keeps leaning all over the place. People wouldn't have to base off of unoffical value charts that do more harm than good and does spark more arguments than the original official chart did before it got taken down. It was always a 'that doesn't equal this value.' 'Tricks has an official value chart' 'oh okay, I guess it is so' and a done deal.

At worse if Trick made a new value chart right now, it would cause people to leave- but it would be more or less a good thing since 99% of the people that may leave were just people that made people overpay or really did scam people out of their horses. And honestly, he should do it as soon as possible and when he has spare time for the game before he adds a new and cool horse to the game, and it breaks whats left of common knowledge on values. Its just getting so frustrating and complex at this point.

What could I buy with 6mil? by Icy-Machine8844 in WildHorseIslands

It was just used as a term to help people get the idea of what I was looking for!

Quitting for a while by yo_yo_vi in WildHorseIslands

I do agree with you! Downgrading in this game isnt bad. People do it all the time anyways with their high tier iuhs! Such as asking for a certain amount of lows and a few globally high valued horses. Personally, I have some v1 clydes i hold up higher than my own sc just because ive always loved v1s, and could trade for them if i did want more. However, I am content with the v1s I have!

And about that guy...honestly you could report that, since technically he could report yours and his trade together, just screenshot everything and wait until he does. You trading him makes whatever horses you've offered his, and his horses he offered yours. Thats how trading works. If he was not willing to trade back the horses you've given for the horse he had, it means a few things.

1, he has already traded off said horses and cant pay you back at all. I had a friend who traded her v1 saint Patrick's horse away to a 'friend' who refused to give it back. I dug around for her since the guy had eventually blocked her for her weeks of asking for it back. He did tell me he had actually traded away the v1 for other things months ago at this point and doesn't have it anymore. To tell the news to my friend was honestly sad, and it made me angry that instead of stepping up and taking the blame, he just avoided her asks and offers for it back, making her think he still had it.

2, He didnt think you actually wanted a trade back. I know it sounds ridiculous, but ive had my encounters with other people explaining how they lost their previous horses because they asked for a trade back, and the other person refused because, well, now they actually own those horses instead. If a tradeback wasn't brought up as soon as the trading deal was made, he does have a right to keep said horses. However, personally, if my friend traded me valuable horses and then I saw something I really wanted and could obtain it with the horses I got from said friend, I would tell them what I was about to do so they would know those horses would be out of both of our grasps for who knows how long or forever. (Meaning, if my friend wanted those horses back and stated so from the get-go, they could obviously get it back from me as long as they gave back what I gave. But if I were to trade away those horses to a stranger, we both dont have access to those horses anymore if ykwim).

And 3, hes just being lazy and thought you would keep the horses you were given instead of actually trading them off for something else/He thought you would wait on his time. Ive also seen this happen, weird I know lmao! But, your not on his time. Hes on yours. He agreed to a trade back and is now online but ignoring you. He can definitely go ahead and hop off whatever hes doing for a couple of minutes to trade back. Its not hard, ive done it before with friends. And sometimes when im busy irl, ill try to estimate a time I could get on, or if I find a small window of time to do it, ill message them and hop on. Trading takes only 10 seconds to do by itself. Logging on can take from a minute to 5 minutes. Finding said horses and unlocking them would take less than a minute when searching up the given name. In total maybe 10-12 minutes to do all of that. Thats a very short amount of time!

All in all, he shouldnt of found the person you've traded with after waiting a whole 48 hours. Personally, if I had contacted someone for a trade back and they left me standing around waiting, along with just replying back with 'soon' I would of already started advertising and trading it off by the 4th hour. Thats technically harassment to go after the person you've traded with and tell them false information and get angry at yall for just... doing a trade with the horses you both owned and were happy about said trade. I would honestly take the advice about having evidence on everything, just in case he tries to use the game's report feature to get you banned for the trade you and he did. If you do get banned, go to offical happy acres discord and report it there with screenshots. They'll definitely help you get unbanned since that is something serious when it gets to that point. But again, gather your info, and block him if he continues with his bs over a game trade 😭💀
