Experiment

[shadywack]

I'm going to go into Forest Haven and post the following text

"Eye of Gurgox for sale, 10k"

I will post the results from trying this periodically tonight. Bear in mind, this will be a fake solicitation. I do not have nor would I sell this item. This is an experiment and I will identify the situation to all respondents.

I'm just curious to see if any of the spam is effective at all and to what degree. It seems that "Selling Gurgox Eye" is one of the most common sale spams currently going on.

Can't wait for 1.5...........................

You should technically get swamped with trade requests. You might even get a helpful tell advising if the correct price, either way interested in the results

2 different forest havens, no takers. I posted that msg for 5 minutes and only frequently enough to keep it in the chat box (ie, it was in the chat box for a full 5 minutes regardless of other activity, but every line).

Will keep trying to get a respondent.

Good you posted your experiment here first so that others don't think you were running a scam.

Interested to see the results.

Do not worry I will be right there to tell you the correct price, over, and over, and over again. Helpful, no.
