Hello, I'm Larien!

[larien]

Hello, my name is Larien Silimaure. I am eighteen years old and a senior in high school. BITS will be my first horse sim and I'm really excited. I hope BITS will be the only game I ever play, I really want this to be a fun learning experience and something I enjoy.

I'm a fairly busy girl, but I'm online a lot so I will always have time for the game. I'm currently a stable hand at Salisbury Stables; I also help them school horses. I also start next week part time at Kohl's.

I don't currently own a horse of my own and with me being headed off to college next year buying one wouldn't be a very good investment. I do ride a lot at the stable though and I've learned a lot about running a show stable.

I eventually plan having my own stable, business, and association or registry when I get my feet planted and gain some status. I currently open to breed suggestions as I'm not sure what is in demand right now. I may also be interested in getting a new breed started, but I would like it if there was a lot of interest in the breed before I took that kind of leap.

I'm very friendly and I love to talk so feel free to pm, email, or im me. You can find all of my contact information in my profile.

Welcome to BITS, Larien! Yay! I'm the first one to welcome you! ;D Anyway, I'm Cortney and I'm 19. I don't own my own horse but my sister just got a Paint gelding for her birthday this month. In BITS I own Paints and Quarter Horses and I board at Show Me Halter and Performance Horses. I can't wait to see what horses you register and if you ever have any questions don't hesitate to ask! Everyone here is very friendly and helpful. Welcome! ;D

Hey Larien! =)
Welcome to BITS... I hope you have as much fun as all of us are

Hey Larien! Welcome to BITS. I'm Rainbow, one of the admins. =) It's awesome to see you here and I can't wait to see your horses! I don't own my own horse, unfortunately, but I do half-lease an awesome Thoroughbred gelding, Jamie, who I do dressage with. In the game, I own Wildwind Equestrian Centre, which specialises in dressage horses, hunters, and jumpers.

Anyways, welcome! I can't wait to get to know you and your horses =)

Hello, I'm Evanthe. Welcome to the game, Larien. ^_^

[larien]

Thanks guys, do you have any horse breed suggestions?

[cortney]

STOCK HORSES!!! ;D Hehe! Gwens got some great imported ones for sale right now on the sales board.

Ah, ponies are good - there's a pony association (the BITS Pony Dressage & Hack Association) and only Maya and I, as well as the owner (Bec) have ponies at the moment. Of course, I'm a Warmblood/Thoroughbred person at heart, as well - that's pretty much what I ride in real life and what I love. Although yeah, stock horses are good too. =) Evanthe and Ashleigh have drafters... So yeah - anything really lol. I'm sure that doesn't make it any easier. My suggestion personally - ponies, WBs, and/or TBs. Or multiple breeds lol.

[larien]

Hmmm... What kinds of ponies? Would there be any interest in mini horses?

[Maya]

Actually, I believe there's already been one mini horse registered, so there's potential for them to get popular, definitely! =)
I have to push for Eventers and Dressage horses, as well as Chincoteague Ponies.

[Rainbow]

I wouldn't mind having a few minis - they're so cute (side note - my RL best friend has a mini... Tugger is the cutest little paint ever lol) and, as WEC has a solid driving program, they'd fit in well!

[larien]

I think I will head that direction then. The stables where I work have two minis, Rose and Midnight.

Welcome, Larien! I met you online earlier today and I can't wait until I can get to know you better! I own SMHP and breed mostly paints, but have a few QH's and TB's, too.
