PB taking awhile

Have a technical question you can't find the answer to in FAQ's? Ask it here. Game problem questions that do NOT pertain to things like training advice, what would my horse do well in, how much is it worth.

Do remember that Nef hand codes every private breed from the ground up. There's no easy code swap like colours, or a simple activation like sponsors. It's an hour+ of coding to do the breed, implement it into the game, add it to the search list, and put it onto a player's ranch. And now Nef is going from a few orders a week to a ton of them. In addition to the flood of upgrades and custom colour orders she's getting.

As it stood before the special offer, Nef tried to get to PBs at least once a week. Depending on the number of orders, it sometimes didn't happen. Now that there's a HUGE influx of orders, expect the waiting period to be longer. Yes, the time frame should be changed, and yes we Ops have asked for that to happen many many times. Please be patient. Take a look around at all the other people who have gotten their breeds and remind yourself that each one of those was an hour or two of Nef's time, in addition to her other Paypal duties, and a real job, and a real life.

Indeed,I agree with Khol, everyone has their own lives.
If you knew you cant wait, then you shouldnt have ordered PB at all.

I read it it said 48 hours she really should have changed it if she was going to have a sale as I worked in retail and false adverts can really tick people off, I know it takes time but if you know that give a warning Ill just have to wait , but it said 48 hours so I took it as 48 hours

48 hours is a guide line, not a exact set time. its estimated, maybe sometimes there is no orders and she really does it within that time.
But you cant be so black and white.. You should be happy if you get the breed within 2 weeks, I dont know will i even get my breed since another person has ordered it also.

As everyone else has said, four days is not enough reason to be this impatient. Every single one of mine has always taken at least a week, and this time my second one will probably be at least two, maybe more, because of all the people ordering.

I wouldn't expect it over the weekend, as I doubt she works weekends with this. My guesstimate will be Wednesday. Mine always seem to be in my stable when I log in on Wednesday mornings!! It's the weekday my last three have appeared at :lol:

I totally know what you mean. My Aes Sedai's arrive last Wednesday, so I guess tomorrow I'll see if my new one comes then, or if I have to wait another week for it. It is a LOT of prepping and rolling though. Don't mind the rolling, but I hate the prepping!! And my usual go-to-prepper has her hands full with all my other foundies! :lol:

I'm rolling up two of my Aes Sedai first gens, so I can get a definite BC set! I'm pretty sure it's Am/Ph/Ex/Ex, but I'm curious what the stats numbers will look like, as my first gens were all over the place. :lol:

Seems like most of the PB Wbs are Am/Ph/Ex/Ex due to ppl request similar stats to german warmbloods.

Mine are Am/Ph/Su/Fa. I have 3 breeds now, and one has yet to come out with amazing stats like some are getting. Although not bad, it would be nice to get that 112 intelligence.

Oh boy. :roll: I emailed nef back last night cos she said she was going to send me some tokens because I bought two pbs just before the sale. Lol, I feel like a pest now after reading all this :/ I can wait, I don't like it, but patience is a virtue. :lol: hope she wont be too upset with my "reminder". It has been not quite three weeks since she messaged me.

Be patient, there was just a site update. :) That takes time to do, and like others have said, PBs are coded from the ground up. Play with some other horses and the new events in the mean time, there's lots to do now! :D
