Criticism: ok a small complaint

i decided to use my good horse and breed for a foal HUGE MISTAKE the stupid horse game is not set up to take into account some of us might want to breed a better horse during the event,
i have had to use a level14 horse while i train up my new foal hence i lost 100 points and dropped out of the platinum league and back into the gold league, can we please have an opt out button while our best horses are in training, this whole horse thing is in need of improvement,

Wait, what? You bred your best hose with one of much lower value? There are may threads and posts about the horses, horse breeding and the horse tournament. Maybe you should have thought about what breeding value your new foal would have before breeding your best horse.. It's quite hard to miss if you check your breeding screen..
I've bred many time through this tournament always making sure my new foal didn't end up more than maybe one breeding value level under my best one and I've made it far..

As for the opt out thing while training.. It would give people a chance to just sit and stew on a ranking they like which could mean a very unfair advantage to other players!

Same here, I just waited till I had a partner for my best horse of the same level and then bred. And I do challenges in between training, just need to make sure that my fuel is not overfull again when the horse is done training.

Could bang my head against a wall this morning when my shakey morning hands immediately clicked 'start' again after collecting the horse-xp. Only 20 horseshoes for 4 hours, and ofcourse it was my best horse...

When the ability to breed was available I immediatelky did it, big mistaake, I refuse to learn anymore about the horse part. I learned as much as i care to and do not want to havce to read a lot in order to play this game, for that, no thankx GGS and please no offense but GTH. I play the farm just to advance and that is it.

All I'm saying is that if someone makes a mistake because they can't be bothered to read the information available, or just kindly ask for help, but instead start complaining and criticizing the game for being unfair I have very little sympathy..

For someone who likes brain teasers and puzzles, kbahr, its seems like you gave up on this one a little quick?

It really does not do amything special for me, how does it furthr the game, it just seems like a totally different entity and does not help me out any other way than just doing stuff for itsewlf. An example is at least on the island farm, you get seeds or runestones that can ultimately used for the ship. What on a normal basis do you get like that from the horse coral.

Well, maybe people who enjoy the horse farm do it not for some gain to their farms but simply because they like breeding and competing with their horses? I know I do. So what do I gain from it? Enjoyment, of course! Same goes for the farming. I wouldn't play if I didn't enjoy it. To me and many others, that's enough.

If you enjoy farming, but not breeding and competing with horses, then that's what you should focus on!
And honestly, it doesn't matter why you don't enjoy the horses, kbahr007. You don't have to!
