The Account Merger Option, which allows you to merge together as many legacy PB3, Morgan, Paint, Pegasus or Nokota accounts as you like will be released July 11/12th, possibly sooner if testing goes well with the mods.
We have received a lot of messages and emails on the merger feature, so I decided to break it down a little more clearly.
1. When you merge one account to another, all your horses, items, messages, photos, photo comments, news, news comments, forum posts, etc will be moved to the primary account you are merging to. Some things will not be moved, but added to your main account, such as PonyBucks, credits, stats, karma, etc.
2. Join Date will be set to whichever account has the earliest date.
3. Stats, such as total forum posts, karma, credits etc, will be added to your primary account. For example, if you had 3,000 forum posts in one account and 1,000 in the other, you will now show 4,000 posts.
4. Stats that make up a record, such as highest jump for your barn, will be set to whichever account has the better stat.
5. Feed will be additive similar to item 3 above.
6. Training discipline levels will reflect whichever account had the better percentage for the specific discipline.
7. Your legacy server icon WILL NOT merge over. The legacy server icon will remain the same as the account you are merging to.
8. Barn Brand and Barn Name will not move over and will be lost.
Once you select to merge an account into your primary account, you will no longer be able to access the account you are trying to merge from, and it will be scheduled for deletion shortly after the merge completes. The merge option is not reversible!
Members that previously donated for a low account ID will need to contact us once the merge option is available to be given a low ID to merge their accounts to.
Once the merge option has been released, we will continue with the upgrades to PonyBox. We have a ton more updates to release throughout the remainder of the year. If you have any questions in regards to the merge or updates please post them here.

Thank you! I have one question. I want to keep the id to this barn, 160393, as I'll be merging my accounts to this one. Will I be able to keep this id?
I don't have my log in details for some of my accounts so would it be possible to give the barn names and IDs of the barns I'm wanting to merge together
Harrington - Maybe IP addresses? I know Jeff has access to them because the admin sometimes use them to prevent scams such as people pretending to be a new/different player on a different account. :)
@Wild Horses - You can move just one or as many as you like.
@Riders Of Rohan - You must know the login details to prove you own the accounts you want to merge. If you are having issues accessing accounts please email PonyBox at support@ponybox.com
@Harrington - You will be required to validate the account you are merging, by entering the associated login information.
@Cross Fire Equestrian - PonyBox support has all emails answered that were sent up to and including July 3rd. If you emailed us at support@ponybox.com on July 3rd or before and have not received a response, then please resend.
I sent a message through email about my accounts, but I didn't get a response and I hate to be annoying haha.
I have legacy server accounts on every server (except PB3) with the same username and password (because I figured they'd be easy to remember). So now when I put in the username and password, I only get into my morgan account.
Is there a way to change my other usernames so that I could get into my Paint/Pegi/Nokkie accounts too?
Question...u said that the brands of the accounts u r merging will be lost...then what happens to the horses that had that brand? Do they get ur main account's brand or are they now brandless and someone else can brand them?
Sorry, one more question. Like this account, all of my others have used email addresses that have been deleted. I think one or two have my current. Can I still merge them?
what will the new limit on active horses be with this merged account? I have multiple breeds going and cant afford to lose space but I also really want to merge my accounts
Click the My Settings link on the left menu to merge your accounts. Remember, this is not reversable and please allow 2-3 days for the merger to process.
Will there be an option to change the username of my account? I always had the same username for the different servers so now I'm stuck with a letter at the end of my login and wouldn't mind being able to switch it back to what it was
i have not been on in quite a while. the merger was very new and i just got my accounts set to merge. but when i last logged off i had ALOT of items. now it says i have none. why is this?
