I am a 15 year old who plays Ponybox,and I would have to say it is a FANTASTIC site. People from all ages play,from seven year olds to 70 year olds! Its tons of fun,and the forums allow you to talk about horses with other people in a safe environment. The competitive spirit of the game allows you to train and compete your horses to become number one!

If you would like to contact me on Ponybox, my Paint server barns are Galaxy Quest Fells,Galaxy Quest Welshes,Galaxy Quest Freisians,and Galaxy Quest Bankers. My Nokota server barn is La Push Reservation.

Hope to see you there!

I’m a moderator on Morgan, and I would highly recommend the site to anyone. The strict rules for the forums makes it age appropriate for everyone. This is a really fun game, with people from all over the world. We all have one thing in common, we all love horses!

This is an amazing site, if anyone hasn’t looked at it, they really should.

My barn name on Morgan is Welsh Paradise.

I am a 15 year old kid who, honestly is semi-afraid of horses. But, I love to hop on ponybox everyday. It is a very friendly site, and I’ve made so many new friends. I’d definately recommend Ponybox to everyone. I’ve seen older people on ponybox, along with very young. The moderators do an amazing job on there which keep people in line. A very big thanks goes to Jeff Ness for creating Ponybox. Of course, that goes along with all the ponybox staff! Everybody loves when new people join, believe me!

This is a great game. Most parents would aprove.

Children and Adults have fun raising- and caring for thier own horses.
There are Forums where people can talk about Real life horse related problems- or post Horse Graphics! Its an amazing game and I highly recomend it!

I am a teen player on ponybox. I been playing on pegasus and there is alot of nice friendly people on there. It is a good site for all horse lovers to play. The mods are always on to keep everything in line. I have been playing for a long time now I started when there was only the morgan server then when the paint server came out I got to make new friends and talk to my old ones on there. Then I moved to pegasus and then to Nokota. I have many friends that play it and it is really fun. It is easy to figure out. If you want to talk to me you can send me a msg at my pegasus account which is My Barn. I am always on all the time. Ponybox is recomanded for people from ages 7-70 like said before. Also I would like to give a big thanks to Jeff Ness for creating ponybox for everyone.Even the staff is great at keeping up and running. Like said before we all like when new people join because 1. we get to make new friends and 2. We get to help them out. Just read the rules and it will help you out also. Like I said before I am only a teen player so It is very safe. Also Ponybox is a very very addicting game it takes forever for my friend and I to get off becuase we are always talking to someone on there. So remember we are always looking for new neighbors.

I am a sixteen year old player that has been playing ponybox for over 2 years. This game is the best. It even has parent control settings you can activate and it has moderators to watch and report foul language. I have seen ponybox evolve and it is very safe. I recommend it to ANYONE!

I am a Moderator on both the Pegasus and Nokota server. I to would recommend PonyBox to any and everyone. I have even talked my niece in to playing. Moderators are always lurking to make sure the rules are followed and that it stays kid friendly for any and all ages. If you like the fantasy style then there is a server for that. If you are interested in the Native American breeds then there is a server for that as well. Jeff and the admin staff have done a great job trying to cater to different styles of the imagination and passions of the horse world.

I’m a 12 year old who rides a real horse but I can’t afford to own him, ponybox is a game where I have controll & own my own horses. I have some high ranking horses & a lot of money. (over 700k) I reccomend this game to all of my friends!

I am 22, and a new moderator on the Paint server, but I have been playing Ponybox for nearly two years. I have more than a dozen barns on Paint and 4 on Nokota - this site is incredible. Jeff and the admin team put so much effort into creating a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for players of all ages.
If you want a site where kids can have fun after doing their homework, through holidays when the weather is miserable, or even when they just have computer time, you can’t do any better than Ponybox.
After the death of my fiance last September, the Ponybox community really pulled together to help me through - I wouldn’t have made it through without them. This site creates bonds and friendships for life across the world.
The site is carefully monitored by a number of moderators on each server.
In my eyes, if you want your child or children to have fun and be safe, Ponybox is where you want them to be.

I am also a moderator on the Morgan server. I would reccomend PB to any one, any age. I have played, over the years, a number of different sim games and have found PB by far the best.
It is a safe, fun place for horse lovers to come together and play, learn and talk. I have made many friends in the year I have been there and have met some really lovely people and been inspired.
Read the rules and have fun! Hope to see you there, look me up if you’d like some help ;))

The only age limit for this is you have to be born!!!!!
It’s a real easy to use game. Some games easy to you means boring. That is not the case here. This game is just brillient. It’s 100% safe and the owners/creators are real friendly and interested in your opinions and ideas.
I think this is the best game on the net!!

As a member, I am a proud Ponyboxer. It is completely safe with mods like Fiagai. They’ll delete a post within 1 minute if its “bad”. Most ponyboxers, though, know the rules. The new ones always get help, so you’re good on PB. I do accept the fact, though, that PB is not 100% safe, b/c you can send a private message.

I love this site and play it all the time. =D

The forums let you talk to other people and it doesn’t matter what you look like, or anything like that. The rules keep everyone in lines and if you over-step that line….puff….you will know about it!

I would tell anyone, of any age, about this site. It’s great!

If you want to contact me message Fox Hollow Equestrians on the Morgan Server.

I play PonyBox and I’m coming 13 next year. I’ve been playing for a year and I think it’s great and I’ve introduced my friends and they think it’s great. The mods are really good and anything inaproprate gets deleted immediatly. I know there arer even some mums that play! Morgan is the best in my opinion, I have stayed faithfull too Morgan and Morgan alone!

You can find me on Morgan as I Say Join With Us. I’ll be ever soo willing too help you if you’re stuck or just generally chat!xD

As an Older member(30yrs old)and a Moderator on the paint and pegasus sites I would highly recomend to anyone at any age to play this game. We have players of all age ranges all with a common ground the love for horses. The moderators are all great and are always on the lookout for anything wrong going on.

I also know from personal experience that you will make some of the greatest friends that you otherwise would never of had the chance to meet by joining this site. I have friends of all ages and races and religions on here. And I have met some of the greatest people who have helped me to get through some very seriously hard times in my real life. This site is more then just a game its a great family to go to and to give you the support you need. Especially in a time of need. I know I have been helped greatly by the members I have become close too. And I know that I have served as a counsler to many a member who were having problems at home. I was told by a few that I had stopped them from running away or the worst commiting suicide. Just by giving an ear to listen too. Its amazing the changes I have seen in a lot of the players who I talk to. Who went from having problems at home with nobody to listen to them to changing there lives and becoming great kids who can deal with hard issues. I have even had a parent as to contact me to thank me for helping their child get through things.

This game gives you such a great community of members to talk to and get to know. The owners of the game are very involved and dont hesitate to step in when needed. All of our moderators are very willing to step in and take charge when needed. None of us are paid to be moderators we donate our time. So if you are looking for a great place online to allow your kids or even for yourself to play on you would be comfortable and greatly surprised by this site.

Thanks….. Barbwire Stables

I absolutely love this site. I am a 14yo teen, and I am on PB 24/7 xD
I am a moderator on the site, on Morgan server.
My barn name is Angels Touchstone Stables, and if you message me on there with any questions I would be glad to answer them.
It is a very safe site; we mods work hard to keep it that way.
I love being able to breed/train/show my own horses, just having my own barn is fun ^^
Jeff and the Admin work very hard and there are always cool new upgrades, making the site even better.
I have been a member for I think two years now… and it has taught me so many things.
I have the most amazing friends, and through learning of ‘graphics’ [pictures you put on your barn page, photo manipulations.]
I have learned what I would like to do for a career, graphic design.
My parents always know I am safe on here, and being a Mod has taught be a lot of responsibility.
Morgan is my favorite server and I will always be loyal to it, but I think all the other servers are great too.

i am a teen who plays ponybox also. and my two younger sisters also play. at first i was worried about them playing because i didnt know what the game was like, so i joined and was absolutely astounded by it!
there are so many nice players plus the amazing mods that keep the sight running smoothly without any bad things going on making it safe for all users!

i recommend this game to all people, even if you have no interest in horses

Adding on to my earlier comment:

Any player can report any player with bad or foul language. Your kids can also get a little creative and make graphics and share then for comments/crituque. They can also learn about how to spend money wisley (although I don’t know if horses count!) with the Ponybucks system. Basiclly, this site devolops social, math/money, and creativity skills. I recomment it to ANYONE who sees this page.

I’m 15 and discoverd PB a while ago, its a great, easy, fun, addicting and safe game =D. Mods keep everything safe and if you have a question you only have to mail a mod or post in the forum! Its a great sim game! I’m on the Morgan, Paint(Rain Ranch), Pegasus and new Nokota server. Pegasus has all kinds of mystical horses, wheras Morgan is more English riding and horses wise, Paint is more Western, its just an amazing site!

I have been playing Ponybox since late ‘06, have had some breaks a few times, but it is the most memorable game in my mind. Being a teen myself at 13, I can garantee you that this site is completely kid-friendly, and any range of horse lover is bound to adore this game. It’s very easy to start off, and after a while you become completely indulged in everything from graphics to making ponybucks.

Ponybox is one of the best social games in the trade, you can create so many (safe) friends, and share things like photos of pets or graphics.

If you love horses then Ponybox is definitely the site to play on, child, teen, adult, elder, all should play on it. I’d reccommend it to anybody.

I am a teen player. I’d like to thank you for all these kind comments you’ve made about this wonderful site! There are many, many sites out there, and I’ve tried lots of them, but I must agree Ponyox is the best by far. As you mentioned the forum rules are exremely strict- people get reported for posting copyrighted images, for instance. The rules for sending private messages are just as strict- you can report someone to a PonyBox Moderator if what they syt is rude. Jeff has done his best to make this an appropriate site for all ages, and his effort has certainly paid off!

I have been playing Ponybox for over 2 years and love it dearly. I am not a teen - in fact i am 49 ! I have accounts on all 4 servers. This site is truly addicting, fun and safe for all.
It is a great thing to be sitting looking out my window at the snow and have people from Ireland, Australia and all over the world tell me what it looks like out their window!
Visit me on all 4 servers - do a member search and just type JC - you will find me and i will help you get started.

I highly recommend it to any parent for their children, their friends, anyone really. I’m 18 and it’s given me hours of fun, and it very addictive!

We hope to see you soon

Hi, I’m Walker. I’m a 21 year old college student. I’m a mod on the Pegasus server and have accounts on all four servers. I have been playing PB for over a year. The mods make sure the site stays safe and members know if they need help that a simple message to a mod is all they need to receive it. PB is one of the best horse sim sites I’ve played and so far it’s the only one I’ve played for longer then a week or so. I recommend the site to mothers and their kids.

Yes, a big thanks to LocalMommy for the support of Ponybox. Ponybox is a great interactive game, its very safe and a great way to give freedom to your children but with the assurance of a safe environment for them to do it in…. XD I’m looking forward to seeing some great new additions soon

Hi, my name’s Holly and I’m a 15 year old Ponybox player. I’ve been playing for about a year and I love this game- it’s sooooo fun and you can really feel safe when playing. Everyone on the game is concerned about making the game safe and maintaining the high levels of courtesy that are shown by all members. I highly reccomend this game to horse lovers of all ages, though I have made some of my non-horsey friends accounts and they all love it too! The sense of fun is encouraged by friendly competitions on the site and you can learn so much about horses from other members. It really is a wonderful game and I have no intention of quitting in this lifetime! I say: JOIN OR MISS OUT! :):)

Ponybox is a fun, enjoyable site inwhich kids can socialise and learn to create and maintain their barn.
I am an active, player of Ponybox and I enjoy it alot, however I feel that there are some issues with the forums especially.
In my opinion you are very limited to freedom of speech and opinions, this annoys me, especially when you can’t share your worries with the rest of your PB buddies, the Moderators are given extra powers, other than just patrolling the forums and keeping the site safe which was originally the idea this can make alot of players feel quite weak, I have noticed on some occasions in the past, use of reporting and unfairness to general players and the RPG’S (Role Playing Games) are limited to excitement due to such tightness of forum rules.
Overall I do very much enjoy Ponybox and I hope it stay #1, fun and open for more members to join.
If you are interested in talking to me, you can contact me Via SWR Quincewood Arabians on Morgan Ponybox.

I started playing Ponybox when I was 11, and I am now 16. I loved Ponybox four years ago, and still do today. Ponybox in continuous with updates and new features, capturing your attention, and keeping you interested, and having fun, all the time. It is a safe and easy game to learn and play on.

Ponybox has actually taught me quite a few things also. It teaches you responsibility, I was very keen on getting on everyday to make sure my horses were fed, and boarded in proper barns. I met many amazing people on Ponybox, and had many amazing times. Although I don’t get on as much as I used to, I give my recommendation to anyone who likes horses, or fantasy. With the new Pegasus server, even non horsey people have a chance to enjoy it.

So I say check it out, make an account, and have fun! =D

Ponybox is spectacular as far as family friendly goes. The mods are great about enforcing the rules and the site is, for the most part, easy to understand (though a few more help files might be nice). As for realism, it’s not bad.

I have to say though, that PB is my 2nd favorite horse sim. Equine-ranch is my absolute favorite and has been around for almost 5 years as well. The rules are excellently enforced there as well, making it incredibly safe for kids and teens. The realism is, without question, top notch — making it a game that adults can play with as much excitement as the kids. Training, barn/money management, and showing/racing are all a part of this game, and the genetics are unbeatable. The game creator/site owner and her husband are the only two “staff” members (along with a few chat room moderators) so they have a real one-on-one relationship with the players. The help files are superb. If the answer can’t be found in the help files or FAQ’s, then it is likely something that has no answer but is, rather, up to the individual player to decide(which makes things more fun!).

If you like PB, you’ll LOVE equine-ranch

Ponybox is a very safe horse simulation for people of all ages. I have seen kids that are 5 on there even! I have seen married adults, and teenagers. I myself is a teenager. I love ponybox. The rules are clear that you can not use profanity, post innapropriate things, and the forums are closely monitered by several mods. If you are looking to join ponybox, feel free to mail me at any time at either My morgan account ‘Bluey’ or My nokota account ‘Painteh’. I check my mail daily, so I will answer ASAP if you do mail me.
Some say the mods are rude but they really aren’t. They are simply doing their job. I have played ponybox since I was 11 or 12, and I am now 14, still loving and enjoying it like the first day I joined. Once again, feel free to mail me if you wish.

“yes it is a nice site BUT the mods are

Relax, They’re trying to keep the site under control. Jeff carefully selected these moderators. I have never seen a rude or mean moderator before.

I have been playing Ponybox for almost two years. It’s exciting to see how much updates can be added over that period of time(items,jumpoffs,horses,servers,forums,etc).
I highly recommend this Horse simulation to all ages. The variety of breeds you can choose from is INCREDIBLE, and it varies from each server.
