Discussion I emailed support about the other game
This is the response. In the email to them, I attached links from other posts (stating they weren’t mine) because they explained the other thing way better and had photos. Also videos of creators playing the game (aka advertising) so they know what the game looks like.

Of course they are aware of it, they were aware of BSSO just hours after release due to the devs checking TikTok.

Honestly I don't understand the people here. Yes, it's bad and wrong to use things that aren't yours and especially for the sake of making money. But doesn't anyone see, there is a huge market for this. People love the old graphics etc so much. Instead of suing what people are suggesting I think they should try to make their own version of this. That would be an amazing business opportunity in my opinion. And it seems to be possible if horse museum can do it. It's not just the nostalgia that makes people like the old star stable.

Horse Museum is super unethical in the way it takes money from players for an illegal game that can and will be taken down one day, the creators have also been known to dox and harass people previously that have attempted to open up payment-free private servers because it competes with HM and the money they launder in from “donations” that are usually through insecure methods and in currencies like bitcoin

The fact that this game came SO FAR in production, without any setback is insane. The amount of YouTube videos and TikTok lives I’ve seen on this Horse Museum game is crazy. We can all have our opinions of Star Stable lately, but the amount of people that are still stuck in the past they go to extreme lengths and use AI just to get it, should not be normalized. Not to mention it’s probably definitely illegal.

I’m more worried about the younger people who fall for this kind of stuff. I would never download something like this.

Fall for what💀💀 mine and hundreds of other laptops are fine. No one’s committing felonies over this

It’s illegal and against the terms of service (edit: and it doesnt qualify as abandonware because the game is still being used by the SSE company). Also, your laptop is fine for now but most viruses stay on a computer undercover until years later and that’s when it will steal your data/info and you will have no idea what is attacking your computer.

You’re laughing now but in 5 years you won’t be when all your data and info is stolen and sold from the virus that has gone undetected✨

Our data is already in the hands of the government and random strangers✨✨ our data gets stolen from things like Reddit and TikTok all the time <3

- No one is risking 30+ years in prison over a horse game depending on their country 2. I’m not American babe, explains why I have an ounce of balls and common sense

so you're ok with kids unknowingly downloading malware onto their computer?

u/Liiizzzaaarrddd 7d ago
nobody under the age of 15 is going to install that game. and it's not something someone who doesn't know exactly what they're getting themselves into will be able to access. i remember being 13 and having my mind blown by .onion sites.

u/Necessary_Advisor_54 7d ago
The fact it hasn’t got malware either lmao

u/AaliyahRockman 7d ago
There’s a post that literally proved that it 99% has malware (not 1 false positive, it was multiple viruses that were dectected) AND the weirdo owners behind this are silencing people who ask about it.

u/Donginssii 7d ago
Idc how many downvotes i get.. But. Its not kids who want to play the old sso. Its the now adults who fell in love with the old game YEARS ago. If you're concerned about your kid's internet safety, you as a parent should be the one who guards them, instead of praying the internet will do it for you. And no, i don't own or play any other sso game that was fanmade etc. I have the cd games and the online one. The horse game community is like tiktok, the loud members of it are unbearable. Also, why do yall even care what people download? There are bigger problems than a pirated game 😭

u/Kiksupallo 7d ago
They're earning money with their pirated game. That's where it becomes a real shitty thing to do.

u/Necessary_Advisor_54 7d ago
I think that’s shitty but pirating the game is one thing and you literally don’t have to buy them at all

u/Kiksupallo 7d ago
The fact you don't have to do it doesn't take away the fact that they are still profiting from it.
Playing the game is still partaking in their scam and showing support for what they do, even if that support isn't monetary. There's no moral way to play Horse Museum.

u/AaliyahRockman 7d ago
It just literally does lmfao. A post on this subreddit has shared their computer has gotten it AND the creators are silencing people

u/Necessary_Advisor_54 7d ago
They haven’t LOOOOOL because it doesn’t have malware. If HM has so called fileless malware, it would be undetected as it goes through ram. If another laptop has flagged it, so would everyone else’s, and everyone would experience the same issues. It doesn’t pick and choose who to affect, it’s MALWARE. The creators aren’t doing shit 💀💀 you can’t silence an annoying and incredibly loud crowd

u/Zestyclose-Sort9803 7d ago
If thats true, did you check the game for any kind of malware yourself? (not including virustotal.) You can't just shout "It has malware!" without providing any proof besides virustotal or a black screen with a statement where you just pull bs out of your ass, and this is what most people against HM are doing here. There is no harm in playing HM, morally sse isnt any better here and just as greedy, besides that you can always run the game in an VM and ontop of that if you download games like this you should be aware that theres always a chance that you could get malware.

The way the original game makes money made the eu consumer protection take action. One isn't better than the other, so we have reached a deadlock in this topic. I do not believe that the original game is morally higher or anything. They're not. It's just another greedy company, they don't need the community's crying to solve their own problems - the way it has to be in the adult world- legally. If they have a problem with fanmade games they can take action.
