I was allowed to pay 2 mil for a stuffed koala, but a legitimate auction on a rare moar file is closed because of abuse.

I’m seriously confused here.

What gives?

And yes, I did submit a bug report, but we all know how quickly those are resolved…

It's actually an honor to be pranked, it means someone spent real money on you. Sir.

that sucks. Why does kyoubai! even mark anything as abuse? The feature should be deleted altogether.

Because people complained about legitimate abuse.

Especially if it can’t tell the difference between junk and legitimate moar files!

The flez amount I have was not given to me, I have worked for every bit of it. Granted, it is meaningless internet currency, but I have been grinding for what seems like ages for it. That makes even 4 mil a big deal to me.

Tubmailed, bug reported, and created a thread. All in the hopes of a quick resolution. If he doesn’t see it one way, he should see it another.

I really do talk ****!

I reported it, too. Also offered to make a basic list of files that flezz heavy speed players are interested in, so maybe things like this can be avoided in the future. Log in to see images!

I am sure it has more to do with the pwn shop sell price than the items themselves.

Sometimes when I bid 60k on a junk file the auction gets flagged as abuse, can this be fixed also? Although I guess it doesn’t matter as long as I get the bidder point..

Which may be part of the problem, since I believe the pwn shop sell price is way to low on many moar files.

Auction abuse means a lot of things.

It means a lot of responsibility.

It means always being there for each other.

It means long hours and a lot of elbow grease.

It means sidelong glances in the solarium.

It means hair in new places and other physical changes.

It means that you’ll have to testify.

It means that this is the best summer of our lives.

It means we’ll be that command isn’t sending helicopters.

It means never saying your sorry.

It means these colors don’t run!

two solutions

1. remove abuse (it’s silly imo)

2. don’t allow junk to be auctioned (stops abuse)

1. That way flezz transfer between alts/profiles is too simple, which is bad.

2. Low tier .moars will suffer auction abuse

I think there should be some kind of protection but the one we use right now is ridiculous.
