    A trick that has been mentioned before by encryptions I believe is to have the store open and once the timer hits 10 seconds close the store and reopen quickly that should fix the problem of the timer freezing at zero. I was able to obtain a fair amount of auras in the past doing this and my ping was a stable 100 or so. It's really just a bug in the store sadly. - Atoned

    Hoarding is hanging onto stuff that has no real value that a person just cant seem to make themself throw away. What the people buying all the items and hanging onto them until the price goes through the roof would be called a good marketing strategy. None of the stuff their buying is that desirable. People always want either what they cant have or what is hard to get. It really has nothing to do with need or value. These people are smart enough to use that to their advantage.

    If you're not an Oxford fan you can check Merriam Webster.

    Like I said, by definition still hoarding. No one here is demonizing hoarders. I hoard some items as well expecting them to rise in value later, doesn't change the fact that I'm "hoarding" an item.

    First: for those who don't understand how the store work, there is a "CD"(Cooldown), only 10 items every 4 hours are sold so when u see the speed all items are sold you can rest assure that it is 10 different persons who have buy the items.

    Second: the sales is 48h and 10 items every 4 hours means there is 120 of each items sold during a sales, so let say someone manage to be there for every sales it means he will be able to buy a maximum of 12 items(and it means he will not be able to sleep more than around 4h in a row loll! Hoarding?? sorry but i would call this a wise investment not hoarding!!!!

    Well, IMO

    You are correct. After buying for eg: a gold force staff you cannot buy another in same sale, players have to wait 4 hrs for next. So there is no hoarding here

    People ranting on a forum only wish they could figure out how to be as game rich as the people they are downing.Instead they keep posting how many morals they have and all the while everything these people are doing is 100% allowed . hehe.

    One more thing and im done with this post.

    Hoarders have a mental condition that keeps them from throwing away, giving away or selling something no matter what.

    The people in the game being complained about are buying all they can and selling when its worth a fortune. thats not hoarding. Thats straight up marketing strategy. Peeps complain while they are getting 100% Fit! 😄
