Our Sim Community Is the Best

Post by Mr. Lord Rich »

Regardless of all the nonsense we get into on the forums over rich vs poor, simmys, taxes, stewardbreds, at the end of the day we really do have the best group of players in all the universe.

I made a pretty big mistake this week and placed a very nice little mixer colt in a claimer, I am very excited for his potential future at stud.
I didn't realize the mistake until after entries closed and noticed my colt was placed in an 8K claimer.

I decided to reach out to the community in mass sending multiple group messages to many of the players I have conversed with over the years asking for a little help with a claim to save my horse. What ended up happening was an 87 way shake and Amy Bahama was the lucky winner.

The little guy is back in my barn and I flipped the "no claimer" button on him the instant he arrived back.

This is to all the players who responded to my plea with a claim for my guy. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
This community it truly amazing and the only reason I play the game if because of all of you.

Glad you got him back Pietro. I remember you helping me out when I accidently pensioned all my studs. Thanks to you others and the stew I was able to get them all back. I also think this is a great community, we are all competitive but cheer on everyone else as well. Reminds me of the rodeo community I was in for 35 years.

The “no claimer” setting is one of my favourite things add to the sim in recent years 😅

So true. And glad to hear everything worked out in the end, getting him back. I had noticed this colt previously to this time, and look forward to seeing how he continues.

I started in the sim in 2008 with a 5 year break and came back almost a year ago, thanks to you and others I am off to a really great start back with really nice horses to race and bloodlines to go on with, the sim community is truely amazing, and has some really beautiful and kind people here and I am so glad to be back with people I have many things in common and am grateful to have found a place here to hang with such lovely people.
