Cleanups, Slaughters, And Everything Associated With That
Especially recently on HL, there have popped up a few accounts that claim to be clean-up accounts. For those wondering what this means, it means they want to "clean-up" HL and get rid of useless horses/dogs. Now, this is actually a really good idea, since there are so many players randomly breeding their animals that have no points, inbreeding, crossbreeding, etc. So, there are too many animals that mean nothing to the game. BUT, think for yourself here, if an account claims to be a cleanup, but have animals for sale all the time, are they really "cleaning up"? No, they are just taking players' money for themself and recirculating useless animals.
Now, let's remember, this is a SIM game, meaning, simulation, meaning the horses/dogs are NOT real animals. They are some pixels bunched together. They cannot suffer, starve, be mistreated, have a horrible life, have ANY life at all, etc. so you have no need to feel sorry for them. This is what such fake cleanups and also so-called slaughter houses are banking on. If you feel sorry for the PIXELS, you pay ridiculous prices to them to "save" it. In the process, you lose all your hard earned coins, gain a useless horses, but they have more money to continue this. Do NOT support them, you are just encouraging them to keep going. If no one EVER buys from them, they will HAVE to give it up. Rather buy a nice horse from another player for a reasonable price.
Also, remember that such players organizing such accounts, do not care whether you call them horrible, mean, horse-killing psychos, they actually like all the attention, so don't waste your time. If such an account bids on a horse you have for sale, you can decide whether you want to sell it or not, but if not, don't go messaging them that the horse was "saved from a terrible life" and will need to be bought for more, they will NOT raise their bids and will probably just send back a nasty message and block further messages from you.
If you have a horse that somehow isn't worth anything to the game (like the starting horse), try to not resell it to another player that will keep circulating it. Sell it to a proper cleanup like this one, who will buy any horse/dog you don't want, and if you're new it will be for an okay price to get you started, so feel free to message them.

Your Page
Have:
Brief info you want others to know about the real you, be careful of where you live, numbers or your age though. Any services you offer and their prices, such as graphics, training, voting, etc.
A chart with the horses you have for sale or for stud.
Training goals for your animals and what you breed.
Updates - both on HL and in RL, but once again, be careful what you say!
Do you accept any/all friend requests or not?
Do you RP or not?
If possible, organize this into scrolls or explandable columns (learn basic html or buy a layout)
Avoid:
(at all cost)
Very busy backgrounds, bright colours, a lot of glitter/blinking images. It hurts people's eyes.
A lot of random images - we can never scroll down past it all to see your animals.
NO copyrighted/stolen/google images!!!!
Be careful of images of yourself.
Don't repost every quiz you take, just have that brief bit of info about you.
No slander (a malicious statement, or preferably not any statement) against another person.
No horrific slaughter images, etc. Yes, it's reality, but there are little kids playing this game too.
