The Rare Breed Repopulation Community (2023 Edition)

Until registries are in place the Breeding Communities forum will be for players to work together towards creating or improving their favourite breeds.
Forum rules
Each breed may have only one topic. The first post in the topic is to be informative. It should help explain the breed, and breeding goals; advice on how to select mares and stallions; and links to ideal Stallions available for breeding.
Keeping a directory of breeders working on the same goal is also helpful.
All new threads must be approved.

The previous author of the RBRC is taking an estimated year long break.
To keep things running smoothly, the topic has been remade and updated for 2023.

When the previous author returns we'll decide to either use this post, the former post, or a new one.


═════════════════════════════════════════════════

About Us

Spartan Onyx has come together with many other members of the community with one goal in sight: Repopulating the rare breeds of HWO. If any breed has under 500 live horses, we will work together to breed it back into popularity.

Our motto is simple, yet inspiring.

~Teamwork is best~

We work together on this. Though the various members may be working on different projects, we still try to support each other however we can.

This may include:

Sharing Studs
Donating Horses/Time/Money
Trading Horses
Selling Horses


And various other actions and activities to assist each other.

These are also benefits to joining this community. We work together to help each other prosper and we support each other in our various ventures in the game.

Club Goals

One Stud & Mare From Each Rare Breed

A Pasture's Worth of Trained & Comped Rare Breeds

Achieved Teamwork & Friendship

Repopulate High-quality Rare Breeds (500 in population or less)

Repopulate High-quality Ultra-Rare Breeds (100 in population or less)

═════════════════════════════════════════════════

Brand

As an official breeding community, it would only be appropriate to have an official branding; therefore, we present our official brand:

❖║R•B•R•C║❖

This brand should be used on RBRC bred horses before they are transferred to anyone regardless if they're inside or outside of the group. This includes rare breeds as well as recipe horses.

Removing the brand from a branded horse will see the group closed to you.

If you find it unfair, ping a leader with ideas, complaints, concerns, etc.

They're always open to suggestions.

═════════════════════════════════════════════════

Membership Tiers

Tiers are membership roles which you can apply to become. Some tiers may have particular requirements, so please read carefully.

You can apply for additional roles as you wish. You can also choose to drop a role should you want to. Both options are available at any time.

Some tiers will be updated from the previous topic. Any changes will be approved by either two leaders or three non-leader members. Members are welcome to suggest changes as they wish.

Please add any comments, questions, or suggestions under the "Other" section of the forms for these roles when applying.

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Tier One: Breeder

Breeders are given a few target breeds to create. These breeds will be at most 500 in population and will likely require multiple breeds as recipe horses that they will also have to make.

They will be tasked with working together to breed the horses needed with the help of the Extra Breeder tier and to eventually create the club's listed breeds.

If you're not experienced with making new breeds, we have advisors willing to help teach you.

Requirements:

Experience with creating new breeds. (Optional)
Good teamwork and communication.

Tier Two: Specific Breeder

Specific Breeders, suggested by UnpredictableDragon, are a type of Breeder that choose which breed they will attempt to breed. These breeds are not necessarily included in the club's list.

If you're working on a breeding project that breeds rare breeds (or the recipe horses required for them) then this is for you. In this tier you choose from the entire HWO horse breeds list and work on what you'd like for however long you'd like. This allows you to be in the club and have club benefits without abandoning your projects.

Requirements:

None.

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Tier Three: Extra Breeder

Extra Breeders are the breeders of recipe horses. They're a supporting role to the other Breeder roles. Extra Breeders will be given the horses required to make a recipe horses, make any crossbreeds needed, tidy them up to fit the target evaluation, and send them back to the Breeders and Challenged Breeders.

Very specifically, these breeders will only work on breeding for evaluations, not creating new breeds.
You will be given the horses needed by the other Breeder roles and/or Collectors and you will not have to create a new breed yourself.

As an example, if the club's focus were on the Garrano breed (Sorraia x [ Arabian x Sorraia ]) then you would not be creating the Sorraia breed nor the Garranos, but you would be given Sorraia horses which you'd then custom breed in order to get a good Garrano evaluation from them. You'd do the same with some Arabians, make some Sorraia x Arabian mixes that also fit that evaluation, and then you'd pass the Sorraias and Sorraia x Arabian mixes back to the breeders.

You will be expected to get to at least a 3* evaluation for the target breed, but a 4*-5* evaluation is preferred; the higher the evaluation, the better. Advisors and Evaluators will assist as needed.

After breeding the recipe horses, Extra Breeders will then pass the horses to the Breeders and Challenged Breeders who will breed the rare breeds that they're used for. This role is meant to help take some of the strain off of the other breeders as well as (hopefully) stop the breeders from running into space issues.

Requirements:

Experience in breeding for an evaluation.
Premium to quickly transfer horses. (Optional)

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Tier Four: Challenged Breeder

Challenged Breeders are experienced players who have bred new breeds in the past. They will be working on a separate breed list to the normal Breeders, and will be making all of the breeds that they need themselves.

Horses made by this tier will be at 100 population or less. They will be supported by the Extra Breeders, Advisors, and Evaluators as needed.

Requirements:

Experience in breeding new breeds.
Space to work on multiple breeds at once if needed.

Tier Five: Treasurer

It's the Treasurers' job to keep an eye on club funds. This includes passing out money to members when they need it as well as fundraising for the club if required. This does not include dealing with Pony Tokens.

A member might need funds to get horses for the club, to get the books to become an evaluator, to host a club contest, or any other situation. It's the Treasurer's job to help with that. They'll be given a portion of the club's funds to do this if necessary.

Please do not take advantage of this role. Club money is the club's, and anyone caught using that money for something outside of the club will no longer be part of this little community. That being said, please don't be afraid to ask for funds for club purposes.

Requirements:

Good judgement on when funds should/shouldn't be given.
At least one slot of farm space to take and rehome horses in exchange for the transferred money.
Money itself. (Somewhat Optional)

Tier Six: Collector

Collectors collect horses for the club. This includes rare breeds from the Market and Sales forums as well as recipe horses that the Breeder tiers may need. Funds will be given by the Treasurers to support this.

Rare breeds that're both found on the market or created by the club will either be put into a freeze account (assuming they will be used in the future) or sold to players who will use them. As such, another job of the Collectors is to find buyers for the club's created rare breeds.

Treasurers might help by creating an auction for these horses in order to boost club funds.

Requirements:

A frozen account able to hold at least 12 horses.
Time. Time and patience are required to browse the market and forums.
Communication with Treasurers, Leaders, and Breeders.

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Tier Seven: Advisor

Advisors, suggested by me (EclipticEnd), are experienced breeders. They know tips and tricks for breeding and/or other things related to rare breeds. Any type of Breeder can ping an Advisor with any questions they may have.

This is a gentle supporting role. As such, you can be this role as well as any other roles in the club without being overwhelmed.

Requirements:

Experience in creating new breeds.
Experience in creating recipe horses.
Good knowledge of the game's breeding mechanics.

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Tier Eight: Evaluator

Evaluators, offered by me (EclipticEnd), help all Breeder tiers by offering evaluations to those who can't afford the books or don't want to continually get new books as the club's breeding progresses.

Evaluators are expected to have all of the books for every HWO breed. This is a lot of books, which is why I suggest doing this on an alternate account rather than your primary.

Because it's a large number of books, financial help is offered via the Treasurers in order to get all of them in the case that you want to become this role. This is again a gentle supporting role as most players tend to get their own books, so you're welcome to be any other role in the club as well.

Requirements:

All Evaluation Books. (Money can be provided if needed)

┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

Tier Nine: Leaders

As you might guess, Leaders are the ones in charge. They approve or disapprove member applications, assign breeds to different types of breeders, and help with any questions, concerns, or complaints. They take suggestions from the community to help better the club and put them into action.

Leaders are expected to pick up any role as needed for the club. This means that leaders should be ready to become Breeders, Evaluators, Advisors, Collectors, or Treasurers at any time.

Leaders are in charge of delegating things to the rest of the club. They're also in charge of the club's contests.

Requirements:

You've been an HWO member for at least 1 IRL year.
You feel you can do any of the club's roles if needed.
You're passionate about this club and it's community.

You've been part of this community for at least a week.

Good decision making.
Active player (online at least once a week).
Friendly, respected, and willing to help others.

═════════════════════════════════════════════════

Finances:

The club funds currently total:

$7,575,000

To those who have donated, we appreciate you.

Funds can be claimed for buying, breeding, or just all-out help with bankruptcy. No form is needed. All you need to say is "I need x amount of money", and a Treasurer will give you that amount.

Please do not take advantage of this and please be reasonable. Horses should cost no more than 100k per; anything more than that requires the approval of a Leader before funds can be granted.

If a Treasurer needs to be given some of the club's funds, please let the fundholders know:

Gabby_Woodlark: $2,000,000 (Donated 2M)

EclipticEnd: $4,575,000 (Donated 3.43M)
(Including a $1M donation from ~besthorsebreeder~)

Opalhorse22: $1,000,000 (Donated 1M)

Please ping me to update the above numbers as needed. If I've missed anyone or written down anything incorrectly, let me know.

I've updated it to the best that I know, but I can't remember what I've personally given as a Treasurer and am not expecting the others to, so I've reset things to the donated amounts. I'll personally fill any gaps that the other donators have in terms of their donations.

Re: The Rare Breed Repopulation Community (2023 Edition)

Post by EclipticEnd »

Hiya everyone! Welcome to the 2023 topic for this club. With Gabby gone for the year we can no longer keep the last topic up to date. A lot can happen in a year, so this new topic was created to keep things moving.

When they're back we can hold a vote to decide if we want to go back to the old topic, stay on this one, or make an entirely new one.

In any case, I hope this one suffices. I'll do my best to keep it updated and I'm open to any suggestions for changing anything. Any changes will have to be approved by either two leaders or three club members.

====================================================================================

I do want to ask all of you for your opinion on something that'll hopefully be fun! It's been suggested that we start hosting monthly contests. I think this is a great idea and I hope you guys do as well!

My questions are:

1.) What contests would you, the members of this community, like to take part of?
2.) What prizes are you guys hoping for?
3.) Should these be club-only contests or open to other players as well?

Some contest examples could be Pattern and Unique Color contests, Highest Conformation contests, Darkest Non-Black Horse contests, Rarest Breed contests, and more!

Some prizes could include money, trained horses, rare horses, art, and possibly even free training (with the agreement of whoever's up for training of course).

These contests would run for the entire month and end/be judged on the last day of the month. Ideally they'd be posted on the first of each month as well.

Feel free to offer any additional advice or ask any questions about it. I hope to hear from you soon!

Certainly, you can join. I'd suggest being a Specific Breeder instead as AQHs aren't the current target of the club, but I can certainly list you as a normal Breeder if you'd prefer. Do you have any side accounts that I should list?

You can put me as a Specific Breeder and no I don't have a side account but thanks for asking! :) And if there is another breed that you would like me to try please tell me but could it please have thoroughbreds in it.

You can put me as a Specific Breeder and no I don't have a side account but thanks for asking! :) And if there is another breed that you would like me to try please tell me but could it please have thoroughbreds in it.
Specific Breeders breed what they'd like, so go for whatever you want. You can certainly work on the Appendix Quarter Horses and if you're still going when we're done with Irish Sport Horses then the other Breeders can vote to do AQHs as well. : D
