Riata rejects between 80 and 90 percent of all the people who apply to play the game. We get upwards of 10 join forms a day and count ourselves lucky if we can accept one of those. We reject anyone who comes across as immature in their join forms and luckily we have some checks and balances built in to help us figure out who's a player we want and who's a player that would be better off in another game.
Of course, rejection always rubs some people the wrong way, and we get some doozies of a reponse to our very sincere and friendly 'rejection' letters. We thought we'd share some of the people who were turned away and then showed their true colours and their 'real' maturity level here on the Wall of Shame.
realname: Riata..get the fucking point!!
age: Obviously not mature enough!!
horse_experience: I dont think any horse experiance from these players is good enought for you fools!
what_sim_experience: That is bullshit. Where do you expect these 13-16 year old to come from? From the way you make it sound, Horseland seems more fun for kids..then a strict, "only for mature" people game..If thats the case, change you ages to 18 and over!
playing_now: You want this game to be there MAIN priority and to not play any other online game? Are you kidding me? People dont join these games to have there life revolve around them..think hard about that!
why_join_riata: I dont want to join...anymore that is. After I read through the entire site. I think this game and the people who run it are quite stuckup and incredibly imature for the things said on this site.If you expect people to be that perect and mature..then you might as well stick the game up your ass and walk on to another lame project of your sort.My reasoning as follows below...
find_riata: unfortunalty i WAS going to sign my 14 yr old daughter up!
questions: First off, in your words this game is for mature people by mature people. Bullshit. If your saying that you have to be over 13 to play? Your pathetic. What 13 yr old do you know thats this mature as you people say? Its ridiculous..This is a GAME..not a real life contest to see whos most mature and best. And you say not to apply if you came from horseland? Where the hell do you things kids 13-16 come from? DUH of corse their not ready to jump from that to some wannabe be perfect, "mature" GAME...I think you people spend WAY to much time on this thing and trying to impress people and yourselves of selfish, rude and ridiculous manner on this game. Its a shame if I were you. So find a new hobby, cause you Suck at this one!
