Insanity

Post by Mlloftus »

So, you know how some people (including myself) will get notifications of an offer on a horse that isn't theirs? Well every time I sell a horse to Fallon or FallonAlt that happens. EVERY TIME. I sold two horses for training to them and got 4 notifications on each horse. What is going on? This happened last time too. :?: :?:

Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people.

As PeacefulOreo said, we all do appear to get this. Try clearing your cache (or completely clearing it). I think (though I'm no programmer) that it has something to do with a cookie or something attached to the horse. By clearing my cache, I can get rid of the notifications on horses I don't own on this account. From what I've seen of others having this issue, it is a horse they owned at some point in time, so there is a link to this.

Sometimes, I don't clear my cache just because I like sometimes seeing when a sold horse gets transferred, or perhaps when a horse goes to an unknown trainer. There are ways to take advantage of this... cache error. :mrgreen:

Hey! Quick thing, I have gotten the notification for a horse that I never owned... at least, I'm 99% sure :lol:

Clear your cache, see if it happens again. :mrgreen: But unless you're sure, I suspect you did at one point in time. Even as a transfer, a newbie purchase and sale back... there's a lot of different scenarios where you could've owned that horse. Or maybe an alternate account using the same computer. But keep your eye out, if you come across one that you know you never owned, it might give admin a little insight into it... IF it's more than just a cache thing.
