I like most of the changes to the account page, just have to get used to the new positions for everything...

I like that the item histories are now on the pages relevant to them

I also like the bin icon in the 'who has access to your account' section - before I was always worried I would accidentally click the 'delete' button when I went for the account sharing connect button, as they were were the same shape and colour, and my internet often makes my page skip...


I am, however, extremely sad about the continued departure from our muted green background... I find the white way too harsh; and the green is very nostalgic for me.

It was clarified on the international server, that the wording has been changed to 'reach exactly XXX years old with one horse'.

Not a fan of the light background. As mentioned, it's too harsh on the eyes.

A white sterile background, that blows your head off default smiley :o So exactly what was the point of that change? Certainly not for aestheticsdefault smiley (o) Are the developers color blind or something?default smiley (o)

Howrse still refuses to make the changes we've been asking for since day dot.

Change the automatic use of passes as the default when putting a BMI' on your horse, if I have 50 Golden Apples in my inventory, why on earth would I choose to use my passes to purchase a Golden Apple, the default should be to automatically use what's in my inventory FIRST before using my passes!! Just another little loop hole that benefits Howrse. If my internet lags in any way, I can click to use the BMI from my inventory, but just as I click to accept it, right at the last minute the page jumps back and purchases it with my passesdefault smiley (n)

I found the pass and log in histories but where has the item history gone to?

Not a fan of the white either, not very friendly, nor is the extra clicks and scrolls needed.

If things were going to be changed about why not put those items that's altered often, like the simplified training and ride settings, at the top of the page instead of the bottom?

It's on the black market page underneath the list of items you have.

Thank you, sarahope78. I didn't think of looking at the bottom of the page considering the others were at the top.

Can you please change the notifications a bit - I really don't need to be told there are new daily objectives and that I got a breeder's wealth privilege every day it's pretty frustrating!

the objective that really needs to be removed is the win a rosette one...how many people can actually achieve that? seriously? Even if you have a good enough horse it can take days for the race to actually run.
my last day of objectives today to get a hop and thats the objective I get...i give up

This perhaps is not the right place for this comment, but unsure where else... WHat is the point of the introduction of 'fragments'/. I have 499 fragments from previous promotion towards Alsivor. there for I would think with the current promotion to purchase both Alsivor and Arvakr, I would be able to purchase ALsivor at a reduced rate- it would make sense as I already have half the fragments towards. But no, he is the same price as Alsivor, whom I have no fragments already for. I thought the idea of fragments and keeping what ever you have for a articular devine, when you have the opportunity again you would only need to make up the fragments you still require and I think therefore pass wise there should be a reduction if paying by passes. As yet I am not sure I have seen a single devine reoffered to get via fragments and I do not want to pay the same price for one as if I had no fragments towards it. I would love to see us be able to 'bank' fragments from promos (when opening luck items and as prizes in promos) and then use towards a devine of our choice when we have enough. Just my 2 cents.default smiley ^)default smiley :-x
