What really grinds my gears thread--venting thread

[Coltona]

Ok, i'm tired of posting a thread that turns into crap, while someone else can post the same thing and receive more comments than mine received views!! Mainly focusing on traders market here, you'd think some items are more rare than a 55 obedience bow!! Yes i said 55!

Another thing is buying and selling stuff in PL...are you kidding me?? STS make an age requirement to play!! I'm tired of know it all 12 and 13 year olds mouthing, lowballing, booting for the simple fact you're 1 level under him, or overpricing things on purpose, ruining the game!! Wanna know why the PL market is going in the toilet faster than America's? Cuz of the players!! I just had a guy ask for 4 million gold for obedience bow and hat level 60, AFTER I offered him 450k for both, and he knew what they were worth...WTF IS THAT?!?

Another is beggars...OMG they're ssoooooo annoying in every town!! We need a report for begging button that immediatley mutes them fro 15 minutes! That'll teach them a lesson.

Last is scammers. I find these people somewhere between a cockroach and the white stuff that gathers on the edge of your mouth when you're really thirsty. If you can't make money in a normal fashion, quit the game you bum! They just run around, "My acc was hacked, give me sh*t." "I just got scammed out of all my money and items, so I deserve yours." Best one I saw was a guy saying someone was holding his account for ransom and would give it back for 20k...first of all 20k?!?! Really?? And this guy was wearing a veteran plate..so I called the noob scammer out in town, he quit talking after.

Ok since there can be no non-constructive threads on the forums I wanna make this one constuctive. I want you to post below what things in PL really make you mad, that should be looked into fixing, then others including my self will talk and help sort things out or give advice on fixing things. This isn't to flame other players personally so no names please, but more of a venting thread to let it out where others will listen, give you some advice, then move on. So post below if you have something that just really makes you angry, or i'll be angry!!! Lol

[MightyMicah]

@Coltan if you can't beat em join em. XD lol seriously though, calm down bro. Sometimes things just suck. That's life in a nutshell right? Haha just remember it is only a game, and as you say these people are generally 12-13 year olds.

Oh ya and in before lock. :D

[Walkhardd]

You have to remember, this is the internet. Ever read youtube comments? Lol. There will always be annoying people trolling, begging, and scamming behind there avatars. What I do is surround myself with cool, and mature (sometimes) people that I trust, and use the ignore feature like crazy.

[Coltona]

No i understand all that lol i'm just venting not raging. It's just PL went from a nice respectful place to well new york at night.

[Elyseon]

I give free poison candy to beggars, usually appeases the rather well

[Appleisaac]

Kan i plz hav ur mones???

Eh, beggars don't make me THAT mad. I just watch and laugh as the other people in town attack them with caustic comments, and then I usually have to end of defending the beggar because he ends up being spammed/cursed at.

if u giv meh sum muny i canz giv u platz.

Yeah, I hate scammers too... They are usually in balefort/forest haven because both towns are highly populated with newbys. The biggest reason I hate em, is because when I was a noob, this lv 36 (I though that was REALLY high) was standing in town saying "selling VERY rare bows" he sold me a lv 32 white "Ice King Bow" (after he reassured me I could use it because lv means "just how good the weapon is") for all my money (about 10k).

[ExperimentNebulaCore]

I charge beggers gold for every word spoken.

it annoys them when I troll them.

one time I asked a begger " lets go farm gold in in the pirate ship. U host" fun times...

What grinds my gears is ive been lvl 47 for a week!

Actually, threads like this.

There are many ways to deal with each of these. And who cares about people overpricing anyways? Don't buy.
Beggars, scammers, the rest? Respond, report, mute, and move towns.
It's like New York? Suggest a way for STS to vet the public. Other than that, well, it's New York. or New Delhi. or Hong Kong.

Get over it.

...in his defense the thread is titled "venting thread"... You just read a thread title venting thread, and then you complained it contained venting.

[Zeus]

Umm, you say you want this to be a constructive thread, yet all you did here was vent? Alrighty then... Sometimes I fail to grasp the logic of people.

Also, PL's economy is inflating, not going down. The surprisingly high rate of inflation is due to many factors, such as high liquidation rates, old players with discontinued items returning, thus injecting more money into the system, players buying gold, etc. It's definitely not due to some kid overpricing his items.

That's all I had to say.

[Canyon97]

Yes i found out kids are making prices higher on purpose. And they bragg and report us like crazy. If i have a friend waiting in dungeon and i kick a player, he comes crying to me and reported me. Like cmon i talked o some of the old friends i had when pl was just starting and the reason they left was because of the kids who cry and just start bs, im sorry i said that but thats what it is. Spamming should be taken care of, begging for money should also be takin care of. And maybe u gus should pre set prices like runescape does. Not to cheap but not to expensive. Please take this into consideration. Ty

The problem is that there is way more money coming into the economy than going out. The game needs a big shiny gold sink.

The chat box lady is correct. Also, folks, please stop making guides about everything! No one needs a guide about how to tell which RGB composition is used in the color of the grass in FH! :vmad:

It is constructive, instead of several threads of people posting scammer alert, or a problem with others in PL, it's all in one thread. This isn't a hate thread, it's to let out all you're agitated about in PL, and allow others to agree with you, and/or offer advice.

Pl's economy is trash and most people know it, an item worth a ton of money might bring half that in CS and an item worth 300-400k may bring 1mil (saw this first hand last night). It's too shifty, the CS is constantly overpriced or moving around, mostly from new players who bought plat, bought money and think they can flip tons of items by inflating the price to sky-high, after buying at normal rates.

I saw a kid in town when I was talking to buy glyph items list his bow and hat in the CS for over 800k together. I talked to him and he said yes it is a noobish thing to do, and he got them for about 400k together, just wanted to make a lot of money and see if they'd sell. Of course the hat sold for 350k and the bow is still there for 525k but it's annoying people do this so much it has become commonplace.

Haha love this post the most!! Hilarious

[Rare]

Don't blame sellers for the prices. Blame the buyers.

Ignore beggars. Its easy.

You're blaming him for taking advantage of the market? Come on. If people didn't pay, it wouldn't sell.

Common misconception about "worth". Something is worth what someone will pay. Not more or less.

Lol, I am enjoying this thread, but I must agree. People who blame "greedy sellers" most likely have never heard of the economics of supply and demand.

As for beggers/scammers, my favorite thing to do now is to agree to give them gold or "fall for the scam", then open trade, put in a ridiculous amount of money, like 1 million and hit accept and leave it on the confirm screen.

The begger/scammer will go insane seeing how close they are to getting more money than they could imagine, but still just be inches away from it. This is a good time to then go shower, or get food/nap. Come back in like 15-20 minutes and see how long they have held out and how many messages they've sent you.

This only actually really works if you play on chrome (which I do) since it doesn't log you out, and also you have to have the cajones to risk losing it all if you accidentally click the second confirm button! Just keep that mouse away!!

[MrKrone]

When i see high prices, i dont curse at the 'greedy' sellers.
Instead, all that hits my face is 'i gotta farm more.'

[Zeus]

What I do if I want to vent is type out a post, say everything I want to in it, then DELETE it. Why? Merely writing it out helps, but deleting it stops drama from coming on the forums.

[Late]

they ask me because i have hate set

Grinds my gears when my items in cs get underpriced by 1gold!

[plmafiaboss]

The market is ok if u know it well enough lol.

[Delphina]

Ok guys... let's lead this back in the constructive direction or we'll have to close it.

Just as a reminder we also recommend players report scammers or anyone else not following the rules. Thanks

[Inflammed]

This thread is just funny, watching u guys fight over dealing with beggars like 5 year olds...
Didn't mean any offense to anyone by saying that btw, I'm just saying...
And I found it quite mean to judge 12-13 year olds like that, some might be immature but some aren't.
I also hate beggars, but I just mute them... It's fun when they shut up for once

@Delphina

Couldn't have said it better my self :D

Anyways, thanks and cheers :D

[kiitz]

It is pretty annoying when people under price by 1 gold. As a rule of thumb, I will always buy the one above it!

[mintbericrunch]

^^^ that is an awesome rule.

[Otukura]

some kid overpricing his items.

Or cornering the market by buying up 90 death armors, and selling them for insanely high prices.
