    Default Some advice for spammers

    For all you spammers out there, I have a little advice..Spamming is a horrible sales technique, people get annoyed and it's a waste of time. Why try selling the same thing to the same people over and over again? Seems pointless. Instead you should try entering the Towne again, there is always more than one balefort castle
    for example, with people there. My point being why sell to 20 people when you can sell to 100 in the same amount of time? Anyways hope someone finds this usefull lol

    My favourite are those who yell out something like:

    "BUYING ALL QUALITY PINKS 60% OFF CS. NO AO or Noobs"!!!

    They yell it out like its such a good deal to sell them valuable pinks at a loss. And telling your customer base they are noobs by taking you up on your ridiculous offer is even more insulting. Bad business sense and super annoying.

    I think people so called "SPAM" that they are selling items because there are people constantly joining the towns that they are in. And maybe they didn't hear what your selling, so the seller repeats it for them.

    Lol you're probably one of the spammers. Heres the deal. You can either spam your QC everytime a new person joins and effectively piss off everyone, or you can go to a new town and get your advert seen by 10+ new people. Noob.

    Sadly, nobody will take your advice since most spammers think they're better than everyone else... :/

    They should.

    Yich is very intelligent, and can put up a hell of an argument and win 95% of the time.
