MEMBER OF THE MONTH Night Night is a super active member who has a great sense of humour, and she is very kind. She seeks tips for the sake of improvement and is blossoming as a roleplayer and writer. I as admin truly believe she deserved this one 100%. Way to go, Night!
CHARACTER OF THE MONTH Cheyenne Pateri Cheyenne so far has proven to be a fun character with a "flair for horses." She's spunky in the chat site and drives some of her peers nuts!
COUPLE OF THE MONTH VINCENT & ZOSIME caption
HORSE OF THE MONTH .0003 -- Snapshot of Speed Snapshot is an 11 year old Thoroughbred stallion owned by Lucas Blackwell.
QUOTE OF THE MONTH "To ride, or not to ride... What a stupid question."
the ground is defrosting, the sun is shining, and there is nothing more tempting than going for a ride in the crisp morning air. take advantage of the weather before summer rolls in... and it gets too hot!
temperatures range from 12°C - 20°C .

Not much to say except I'm sending out a mass email. Been nothing to update so I haven't bothered.
June 11th, 2011.
I haven't felt the need to update in a while because things were going smoothly but there are some things I guess I'd better give you heads up about.
There is an ACTIVITY CHECK underway currently. The link to it is here. Respond by June 15th or you will be deleted/given a warning point!
There are two new shows up that the due/run dates have been extended on due to no entries. Remember it benefits both you and your horse to enter shows! Find the links under the Threads & Things sidebox, under the heading "Horse Shows." There is a trail show and a halter show.
July OTM's have been put up for nominations so we can start nominating early, so I can put them up on July 1st (I Grad June 30th so that's debatable but I will do my best!) ... I will not actually start modifying my post and putting in the nominees until June 20th, that way you can change your nominations if you feel like it. Link to it here.
Finally but OH SO TOTALLY not last, if you have MORE THAN ONE ACCOUNT, please try your best to log into each one every time you log onto one of them! Imagine looking at an RPG to join that had 70+ members with 18 active in the last 24 hours... When really if we logged into all of our accounts we'd have well over 40 active in the last 24 hours! Please be mindful of this and log into all whenever possible, it's much appreciated!
The ban on high school girls (girls 18 and under) is still in affect.

Hello guys, "Of the Month" polls are available in Rules & Regs board, although I left out Couple of the Month because that one was kind of a ... Well, there was only one option. In other news, sales horses are available at the BLM and AEA sales board, read the rules well! Auction horses to come.
I am now accepting second registrations of horses as well as lifting my initial (unwritten) rule of one horse only for your first two weeks. Just make sure you comply with the Guidelines of AEA when registering. All second horses that had "H." in front of their name (for holding) are now registered. If you had one waiting in the registration boards, they're registered. Go nuts.
Thirdly and most importantly ... There is now a ban on High School females. No females under the age of 18 may be created currently. Check out our numbers on the User Info sidebar... It's nuts.
Farewell and happy RP'ing!

Happy last day of May! Not a whole lot new to add except that auction and sale horses will be available by the end of today (whoopee!) and the BLM horses are now available for you all if you want them, just follow the "rules" of adoption as laid out by the BLM staff. AKA, PM me for a bidders number before purchasing willy-nilly. Don't forget!
Also we have A FLAT RACE available, entries due June 6th, results to be posted by June 9th!
There's also our JUNE OTM NOMINATIONS right HERE, even if you don't know who to nominate just nominate something/someone random. It will be easier next month. This earns you CREDITS!
Thanks guys!

Because it might not be obvious to everyone, the horses at the BLM auction are not available yet. I kind of failed dates. The earlier post (scroll down in the news scrolly) about not being allowed horses for two weeks counts toward this. Meaning I've moved the auction end-dates.
If you're trying to purchase a horse, you need to follow the rules of the BLM. Read the post well.
They are mustangs. The BLM rounds up mustangs.

NEW SKIN! Please welcome Spring Citrus. In news, the banner will be changed because we are NOT WESTERN ONLY. A list of disciplines that we accept/support is available here.
The contests (scroll down to May 26th for more info) are going well, so much money/credits have been given out already!
Lurkers and guests, please keep in mind that if you join before June 1st you get double starting credits and money! I may extend this if necessary. Right now getting yourself integrated is soooo easy! And ask any of the members... Im more than willing and very dedicated to improving the site and making this experience what you want!
May 26th, 2011.
Well, we've got some neat things coming up. We have a horse show available (see THREADS & THINGS sidebar under EVENTS) for attendance and a contest. Woot! Also looking for input on skin, coding, things that can be done to make us more visually appealing and more fun to play. I have got the time to add gadgets and whatnot to the site so... Take advantage of it! Drop me a PM or chat me up in the cbox. I'm a fantastic lurker so if I'm online just prod the cbox and guaranteed, I will see it.
In the meantime, here's the link to our CONTEST! Neat prizes and whatnot, so get to it folks! (Not to mention it will ultimately benefit your RP'ing experience!)
EDIT to add: here's a second "contest-that-isn't-a-contest" ... So easy, and what a way to make AEA better for YOU as RP'ers! CLICKIE!
May 24th, 2011.
I've decided to be a little classier with name colours... We're going to be organized. Sorry guys, I know organization sucks!
May 22nd, 2011.
A brief notice about registering horses - if you're a returning member, I don't blame you for not checking the guidelines.. If you're new, shame on you! (Kidding!) The way I have it is I want to make sure we don't have any people registering a bunch of horses and then amscraying, so...
For your first two weeks as a member you may have ONLY one horse.
This is a free horse. Free to register. Check the guidelines. Your second horse may be purchased after two weeks for $500 and 15 credits. If you joined before June 1st (since we're not there yet, that's all of you) I'm making that $250 and 5 credits. If you've registered two horses, PM me or tell me somehow WHICH to keep or I'll just choose one, and the other one will be registered after the two weeks is up. Thanks guys!

Today is our official reopening date though I won't advertise until tomorrow etcetera. Everything is 95% cleaned out. Email me at rileydagley@live.com with questions/comments/concerns. Thanks!
I'd also like to point out that I will be around - if I couldn't promise this, I wouldn't have gone through the trouble of revamping/reopening the site!
Join before June 1st and you get double starting money and credits!
must-read topics are in this board - you cannot post elsewhere until you have read the posts marked as such. Rules are annoying, mayhaps, but way necessary to the silky smooth running of AEA!
discussions involving AEA, real-life, horses, other animals, parentals, siblings, significant others, school, etc. post here, and offer / receive advice and words of wisdom from other people!
if you require staffy assistance or have a suggestion for the improvement of AEA regarding anything from coding to graphics please do stop in here, guest friendly for all y'all guesties who aren't joining but have something to say to us!
if you are leaving or going to be away or pretty much anything similar, including quitting us for good, let us know here so that we don't think you simply abandoned us! if you have technical difficulties, just PM an admin after you return explaining it!
all contests will be posted here and announced in the site updates section of the tabulated table at the top of the forum! all games that are here are stickied, if you create a new game see to it that a staffy knows so we can sticky it so it doesn't disappear! games and contests are F-U-N!
once you've saved up credits come here to buy some neat stuff. you can get things for anything from your home to your horse, as well as accessories and special priviliges. there are many ways to get credits and those are listed in this board as well!
lottery normally means money and good things, but sometimes crap happens. check every two weeks to see if your name was drawn for an event or prize, whether negative or positive! when a new lottery is completed the link will be in the site updates section of our tabulated top table!
this board will have all of the past present and future shows and the show forms, Riley will post shows on a regular basis but members are also allowed and encouraged to create shows of their own! this will earn you mucho credits and it also creates some intense RP opportunities!
If you need a siggie or post header, there's surely someone here who can help you out and make your character something nice to spice up your profile or your posts! make sure to specify who you want to do your siggie/avatar/header so there's no confusion or anything, or if you don't care, well then, ok!
post in the appropriate sub-board, totally guest- friendly, but don't abuse this by not listening to our advertising and affiliating rules! not that there are many, and not like they're hard to follow... !
all characters need to have a bio, and for simplicities sake our required info isn't a huge amount! more or less state the basics, give us some words so we get an idea of "who they are" and then... voila!
even though every character has a separate account, it's a good idea to keep track of their basic information as well as their list of equines owned, achievements, shows, horses for sale, links participating in, etc. a form for the above is available in here, just so you don't have to do any funky stuff and spend lots of time! NOTE - old bios will be moved into archives which is a locked board!
in this board you will find job opportunities for students and graduates and other non-horse related people alike. the lists are extensive and things will always be added, especially when new boards come about. feel free to ask riley for a specific job to be added, etc.
all horses purchased, created, etc must be registered here so it is in writing who owns what equine and what their show name is, all school horses are in AEA's main stable, they are owned by AEA but show sign-up sheets to "sign out" a specific school horse for a show are in this board also!
unlike the plot pages board you may post here simply saying, here are my characters statistics, i'm looking for a this, this and this for him, etc. for example i might say my character john doe is 22 and he's heterosexual and i am looking for a booty call or a lover or friends or enemies or pretty much anything you want!
plot pages are de bomb in creating mini plots that include love, lust, hate, sex, drugs, rock 'n roll, all of that good / bad stuff. no forms provided here, but there are no set ways to set things up in this board! basically request something, a friend, enemy, lover, partner, anything!
since you read the rules, you know that you have to make a claim on lots of different things, and this is the board to do it in. claim sub-boards include face claims, IM names, cell numbers, and e-mails. one per character. the only thing that cannot be changed is a characters face claim, all else can be but you NEED to claim one of each to use it for our directory. also keep an update of your characters contacts for each either in your member log OR PM it to a staffer so we can keep track!
