Waves a big hello to Amaretto Owners and staff
Hi Amaretto team. You all do know I can see you guys visiting here every single day right? Yes, everyday through our recent quarrel, up to and including today you all, or at least someone with in your team visits this site here and leaves a fingerprint. As of this writing you have visited 3 times just today, maybe more but 3 times are provable. Tell me, are you curious if I will post anything that recently happened between us? Maybe you are waiting to see if like 100’s of other blogs out there, that I will discuss or post documents that relate to the lawsuit. No, I wont do that, but rest assure there is many people that know, and they know the truth. They are not blinded by your bullshit attempts of using charity organizations to make you look good. You are not the people donating, it is your customers that are opening up their wallets and doing all the giving. You just sit back and try to take all the credit for it. Remember, you can fool some of the people some of the time, but you cant fool all of the people all of the time.
But, since I have your attention. How long do you really think you can keep up this farce about your website? What about this need for a new server due to this “phenomenal growth” you claim to have had. Maybe it is true that you do need a better server, hell even I would agree with that, but really it isn’t from the growth, it is more from your poor lack of planning and getting with the right server company to begin with, but then again you have made that mistake more then a couple times already. Come on now, the website down, that’s a load of crap and you know it. You all are using it everyday and have been using it since the day it went down. People do know that there is no need to pull a website down to rebuild it. So really why is it down? What exactly are you hiding, and from who?
amarettocheats 
THANK YOU! No company, even one as inept as Amaretto, could possibly have their site down this long without a very, very good (bad?) reason. This is gonna get GOOOOOOOD. I FN LOVE IT!!! Shame, shame, I know your name!
May 7, 2011 at 7:57 pm
@Kim, if you know my name respond back to me and let me know what you think you know. I mean that in a good way.
May 7, 2011 at 8:12 pm
I am not sure what I know. Whatever I do know, it’s not enough. I could speculate “you” being at least 2 – 3 people. If you are in-world right now, I will certainly try….;-)
May 7, 2011 at 8:20 pm
Haha Kim. You can say it here. I will not approve a comment with my name or another persons name that has no ties to this site. Im curious though, because a few people now have posted names to who they swear they know who i am. None have been right yet. 🙂
May 7, 2011 at 8:24 pm
Damn. You are quite the tease! Can you at least tell me if you are a male so I can take some thrill in the pursuit? HAHAHAHA. Actually, female might be ok too. LMAO!!!
May 7, 2011 at 8:27 pm
Sorry I can not say. I just spent a substantial amount of money to protect my identity here, as well as all of you who have posted on this site. All I can say is, that I don’t work for any breedable company in Second Life. I never have. I am just a user of the products like anyone else.
May 7, 2011 at 8:35 pm
Fair enough. Suffice it to say I love your site, I love your purpose, and damn it, I may just LOVE YOU! lol. From your first post, I got out of horses. I saw and heard enough. There have been many complaints and accusations about other breedable companies. Heck….I even have my own website where I have published my own suspicions about other breedable companies. Yours, however, were….well….clearly caustic and believable enough for me to move on from Amaretto….
In all sincerity, I hope it all works out for you. Good must prevail over evil. Always.
May 7, 2011 at 8:56 pm
Thank you Kim!! Thanks for understanding and for reading the site. The horse were a great concept, the people behind them are a mess though. There is breedable companies out there that have ethics, unlike Amaretto.
May 7, 2011 at 10:19 pm
easy as ABC…..baby 1,2,3.
O.o
May 7, 2011 at 10:37 pm
Haha yes it is that easy!
May 8, 2011 at 9:31 am
hope to see you in beta?
May 7, 2011 at 10:38 pm
You just may see me there. Now would be a great time for them to have thier product out, as Amaretto is in distressed.
May 8, 2011 at 9:32 am
lol!! I love that you can see them checking the site. I wonder if the websites will ever come back up. Maybe it became too overwhelming to constantly monitor the sites according to their new guidelines. Or maybe they are worried about what might get on there before they are able to delete it.
Time will tell…
May 8, 2011 at 12:42 am
@ Spyder, and they have been here again today. The whole idea of having these sites down is perplexing at best. There really is no need to have them down.
May 8, 2011 at 10:06 am
So glad to see another post. 🙂
The website issue is so bizarre. How long has it been down now? A month? Now they’ve even stopped pretending that “Tmz broke it” and it simply isn’t there.
It’s not just the website that’s crippled, either. There are lots of problems with the horses not communicating with the server. I doubt it’s because there are too many horses, since everyone I know has either downsized dramatically or given up their Amaretto horses altogether.
To donate money to autism is a fine thing, but did you see the “certificate of donation” that accompanied the autism horses? It was done in a font of awkward writing, with letters done backwards. WTF? Autistic people are often mentally brilliant and very functional. It sickened me to see the puzzle with that idiotic font. This relates to autism how? Dyslexia, maybe (and dyslexics can be mentally brilliant, too). Do these people even know what autism is? Or care? Did they learn one single thing about it while they trumpeted their “great charity drive” far and wide?
Thank you for defending our right to free speech; our right to post the truth and our opinions, publicly. I’m really sorry that you had to pay to do it. One would think that our right to free speech is assured without having to defend it, but THANK YOU for doing the right thing when, once again, Amaretto didn’t. You are a hero(ine). Truly.
May 8, 2011 at 10:16 am
Yes the Amaretto website has been down a month now. What is kinda funny though is that the day the new site was released to the public, and crashed with in minutes, some of us did get to view it. Amazingly it resembles the Ozimals Social Bun website in form and function. But that is par for the course with Amaretto.
I just cant see this “phenomenal growth” they speak of. I agree that many of the large breeders are gone. They have moved on to other things. The group chat is very scarce of people that were from the beginning. The new people that have been suckered in, have nowhere near the amount of horses as the older players had. The new players are also oblivious to the situations that have transpired over the months since release. They will see in due time though. Now for a few weeks the server issues are back like in the past months, and more people are throwing their hands up in disgust and are leaving. The market for the horses is in the tank far worse then it ever has been. What is funny though is the new players are in group chat discussing many of the same arguments from months ago. Nothing has changed with in Amaretto, they are still the same obnoxious people they have always been and their products are flawed with with problems that have never been fixed from the start.
I looked into the autism situation. In the past 5 or so years there has been some studies about handwriting and autism. Although poor handwriting is not a way to diagnose autism, it has been found that a percentage of autistic children do in fact have poor handwriting skills. This is not from a lack of understanding of the letters or spelling of the words but more from the poor motor skills. Many school districts across the states now have computers for autistic children to use as with the use of computers, they have found that autistic children are right on the same level as their classmates that are non autistic. Most autistic children either grow out of the poor handwriting or can be exercised to learn better handwriting through other means, such as the simple use of a larger pen. I personally think the puzzle piece that was included in the donation purchase of the autism horse was done in bad taste. The use of backwards letters and the misspelled word, was a total lack of understanding about autism. I am shocked this was approved to be released to the public. There was far better ways to make a token of appreciation for this cause then that. This really only goes to show the level of ignorance these people behind Amaretto possess.
Thank you for your Thanks you’s! I did what i though was right, both in creating this blog, all the way up to protecting the identities of myself as well as all the people that have posted on this site. Free speech is a funny thing here in America. You can say anything you want weather it be factual or not. No matter what though our legal system here allows anyone to challenge it and really in the end the only people that win are the attorneys that defend the parties. In my eyes, both Amaretto and myself lost. We lost money that would have been better off being spent elsewhere. The amount of money that was just spent on this alone is more then many people in America make in salary for a whole year. That is pathetic that our legal system allows this to happen.
May 8, 2011 at 1:08 pm
Good stuff, I tell ya. I am just gonna kick back and anxiously watch it all unfold. I think I said it already, but it is worth repeating. Thanks for doing what you do and have done. If there were a way to donate to your cause, I would certainly love to help. If you can think of a way for me to do that without “exposing” yourself, I am all ears.
P.S. You got me thinkin’. Do you know who I am??? Just curious…..
May 9, 2011 at 10:44 am
@Kim, first yes i have a idea who you are. Just a idea though:) There is a avatar in SL named AmarettoCheats. Should you feel you would like to help with a donation, feel free to drop it on there. Thank you, and im happy you enjoy the antics around here 😉
May 11, 2011 at 12:32 am
I missed the posts on here! Finally back kicking some Amaretto asses lol I have a comment on the ABC horses. I read they will die and be born live and after having Champion horses myself I can say this is a HUGE flaw! I hope ABC reads this actually and takes heed. Also I hope they allow the racing to just be at the owners discretion and not something you have to keep paying more for and choose to do or breed… anyway I have an issue with the article I read about them having these same features that I have grown to dislike and have come to devalue the Champions imo. Thought I’d toss that out as many here may have not had experience with this?
About the site being down. I was confused by this! I thought maybe they were going to make people sign in to even see it so they could control who uses it. Then my guess was they have hired a PR person and she didn’t agree to oversee their site and it all grew too much for them or ?? It must seem obvious their reputation for handling customers is in question and they are trying to figure out how to clean it up.
May 12, 2011 at 1:13 am
*grins seeing a new post from AmarettoCheats*
welcome back…
Yes, its quite amazing how long that site been down, while still (I guess) wroting customer connection. I guess, I say, as I am really completely out of the horses. all I did recently, was IMing dakota when a friend pointed a horse to me that basically shouldnt excist, and was most likely copybotted or anything. Regardless how much I look down at these people, I will always do what I think right, so well. Had to IM her. Ofcourse, couldnt IM “dear friend”richie cause he never answers anymore.
growth for amaretto? I doubt it. Lot of people left the horses, or cutted down.
I did hear btw about their pr person now handlin g things, and even been told they do better now. Mhmm..as I respect the person who told me this, I can only kind of believe it, but to me, you cant just erase the past by hiring a new person.
Ofcourse, they just get new people all the time, and they have no clue whats happening or what they did in the past.
Its even worse; I spoke briefly with their CSR Malak and she had no clue I was thrown out and all. I been so kind to show her the chatlogs and Richie;s log, ofcourse..so atleast she now understands fully for what kind of people she works.
Further..not much to add.
Oh, *waves at the Amaretto team*
It seems normal that all owners watch all sites.. At my site, the http://www.freedomofspeechbreedables.com I sw Levio, the scripter of the Meeroos, writing an answer to a question there. So…can only cheer for that!
Ofcourse, Amaretto are too big cowards to write here..lol
May 12, 2011 at 3:29 am
I’ve never heard of a PR person who didn’t speak. Has anyone seen a notice, IM, any kind of communication from this person? PR stands for Public Relations. Right? So what public is their PR person relating to, exactly? They’d do well to have someone who speaks well, has some patience, has a lot tact and maybe even A SENSE OF HUMOR to speak to customers on their behalf. And try not to speak to any of the customers. They just make things worse. And worse.
And now the server is messed up again. Does this mean free salt, at last? Free food? Anything? Amaretto was pretty good about making things up to their customers when things messed up, for the first few months. First, the Appreciation horses and then free food a couple of times. Now I guess we’re supposed to feel privileged just to own Amaretto horses and pay for everything even when they don’t work. Including the MONTH when you couldn’t pair them. Pinky promise, anyone?
Fed up is an understatement when it comes to this company. Someone said this in chat today: “God my horses are so GONE when the Meeroos get released!!!” He probably got muted. LOL I wonder what the PR person thinks of Amaretto muting and threatening their own customers. Maybe they’re muting him/her, too. It wouldn’t surprise me.
May 12, 2011 at 8:46 pm
Well, if we know Amaretto – and we all do know Amaretto – they would not advertise this hiring for one simple reason. It would require them to admit (directly or indirectly) that they have a problem. Not happenin’. Their egos will always be their biggest weakness.
Either that or this PR person is so deep in Amarertto’s self-created shit storm, that s/he is trying to figure out how in the world to dig them out….and to that I say Good FN Luck!
May 13, 2011 at 11:36 am
@Living the Fantasy….you can post suggestions such as that on the ABC site. Here is the address:
http://awesomebreedcreations.com/forum/index.php
They are an awesome group of people and very receptive to what people have to say. Kinda refreshing….
May 12, 2011 at 10:14 am
the personall pittbull of mrs cooperstone strikes again:
i was friday during server mess up in chat and asked how long it take this time he say we working on tickets for you all you too francesco ,lol i ven file tickets anymore .
well i told them in chat whis mess was 6 months ago also btu than they cal them bad bundles
out of no where i got muted lol
so wrote a letter to amaretto owners and ask them if this way to handle peopple with critical quistoons
so got back on and posted the letter to them and laughed wellthink that was to much?
got banned from group
to make sure nothing “happend” to my horses i deleted them all
i always helped out breeders with horses new ones as others but lol it seems like the former ussr under stalin who dare to ask quistions will vanish
one breeder sended me a note card with a conversation between him and ritchie over horses send to ritchie his gf on advice of a csr and when man ask them back they gone
maybe (i not know if allowed to post ) peopple should read that maybe it opens eyes on amaretto and how they practice buisness
i send btw always things i post to them so the pitbull im me back he not have time for this he not play childish games lol
no he more in to fraude and so maybe grow up games
with kind regards frnacesco Smadga
May 16, 2011 at 5:43 am
That’s what they do, Francesco. They’ve done it to lots of people and they never respond to questions about it. I’ve seen logs of conversations where they misundertood someone, made ridiculous accusations, but never answered the person when queried. They like to strike and then hide.
The Amaretto world is in a shambles right now, after days and days of server issues. They don’t seem to know what’s wrong; or they aren’t saying. First it was the website, offline for a month. Now this.
Their customer service gets worse and worse. Now, it seems, they’re not even replacing bad bundles with random bundles – ? That is the impression people are getting from ticket answers, from what I’ve read.
Their attitude toward and treatment of their customers has always been horrible, though they used to hide it a little better than they do now. (Maleficent was the one exception, I thought. I wonder how she’s holding up now.) I think their attitude toward their customers will, ultimately, be their demise.
May 16, 2011 at 9:52 am
@Caliey, Here is you answer on how she feels now.
[2011-05-16 06:51:51] maleficent Farshore: I guess my compensation for my hours and hours of hard working foe you is to get moaned groaned and bitched at…ty
I guess she feels the money she gets paid isn’t worth the troubles. Besides she just feels the customers are nothing more then moaners and groaners that do nothing more then bitch. Now that is customer service at its finest.
May 16, 2011 at 10:42 am
YAY. More fodder for their PR person. Pun intended.
May 16, 2011 at 4:17 pm
LOL
they get paranoid already?
i couldnt log in at nay maretto place all say youre banned, i tought it was a personall vendetta of the pittbull.
but it seems they locked up places because they affraid of grievers lol, maybe that is nly thing they affraid off?
or peopple posting and send note cards to buyers eplain how and what amaeretto is?
i never seen a bunch of paranoid peopple than amaretto staff!!!
only thing is: how ritchie with al his alts get there now?
m only one quistion maybe some one can answer?
a breeder sended me a notecard with a converstaion between him and ritchie it is a talk over horses gone that that breeder sended to ritchies friend, may i post such thing or i have to chance names on that note?the man in the converstation say i could use it but i not sure , banned now by amaretto not want to be banned by LINDEN
bows in deep respect to all and with king regards francesco Smadga
May 17, 2011 at 5:10 am
I noticed that Ford Carver has been elevated to a CSR, what a mistake. I find it obnoxious, overly sarcastic and he seems to dleight in blaming customers for every single problem rather than admit Amaretto may have made a mistake.
Actually, thinking about it, he’s perfect for Amaretto isn’t he 😉
July 4, 2011 at 7:23 am
what a cracking website – damn good read – nowt posted here that’s not been said amongst many inworld – keep up the good work!!
