About the New Leaderboards, and Suggestionscullyangel Posted:
This only focuses on 1 board in particular. Flezz Leader, which anyone who doesn’t already have the peen will agree with you with you on. I have stated before I just hate to see peens retired because it’s 1 more thing a player like myself who has only been with the community for a brief period of time can never achieve.
Now, without sounding like a male reproductive organ(I hope) if you think that mbum flooding of the AH with items like flip-flops while any number of people buy them back and forth is somehow detrimental other than latency, then you have a lack of experience with AH’s on video game mediums.
1) Listing the items in this way takes an excessively long amount of time(Not so much on FW cause of scripting) and buying them on almost any game takes just as long if not longer. This is not a productive or efficient way to transfer money in any way. Even RMT(Real Money Traders) do not operate in this fashion as it is unreliable and grossly ineffective. I bought hundreds upon hundreds of flip-flops, my arm hurts I bought so many, it took me multiple hours and alot of dedication. Ask Shii how he felt about losing just 1 of those hours.
2)This is not cost effective. Selling the flip-flops I bought would net me a roughly 4-6K profit for roughly 4 hours of work or 1,250Log in to see images!/hr. I don’t know J-macs figures, but in all likelyhood, he ended losing more than what I would have profited on them due to cost to buy, listing fees and profit margin. You don’t pbum money to friends in minute increments that you end up paying more for to transfer than what you were sending was worth. It’s against spreading wealth and it would take a full-time team to do it properly.
3) I’m not sure if you were talking about just driving people away from the AH with the buy/sell method or if you meant monopolizing when you said, “until everyone else is sick of buying/selling as much as we do everyday,” so I will address them both in turn. The AH, as most Online AHs do, has a search function which lets you avoid ever having to deal with a product you aren’t looking for and if you just want to sift through for deals, there are handy-dandy filters. As far as monopolization goes? I would like to welcome everyone on FW to capitalism. AH control is a very effective means in which to make money in a game that features an AH and is almost omnipresent in every one of them. If I had the flezz to buy every single Pink Floyd, I would. Horde them to drive up demand and then slowly sell them so they price spike when people get their hands on them.
You will find tons of flip-flop instances in every game that features an AH. Whether it be Crystals in FFXI, Low Level craft mats in WoW, or dyes in DAoC. They all serve a purpose. Someone gathered them up and sold them to profit, then someone else bought them to do the same thing. In the case of the flip-flops, the profit was an early crack at a possible peen and ticket onto a leaderboard. It in no way, other than latency, impacts the games ability to function. (view post) |

That’s mighty fine of you and if it actually comes to that, I would be willing to go 5 of those eleven. This isn’t some personal vendetta and I love this game too, I’m just getting my feelings out there. (view post) |

About the New Leaderboards, and Suggestionscullyangel Posted:
I agree with what you are saying here completely, but how does this collaborate to your argument to “skip over” the peens for these leaderboards, which may or may not, ever exist? I don’t see how they would impact the situation of slow burn xfers. That’s where you are losing me. The two points are mutually exclusive. (view post) |

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionThe Biscuit Kid Posted:
Like I said. It’s only my opinion, but I feel you are putting spin on the quite obvious truth. You are using BP, to get people to give you flezz. That is lottery winner. You are now using BP to fuel your gear/play and you aren’t being removed from the competitive aspects of forumwarz. This is, in my opinion, wrong. Buying up flip-flops, to me, is just not comparable.

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionAcid Flux Posted:
Sorry if it seems like my scruff is up. I just think it’s another way to get around something that’s in place, namely, “Cheater.” Purchasing flezz with BP through the AH is still purchasing flezz with BP, now has anyone from CZ said it’s wrong yet? No. And the fact remains that this is all just my opinion and we all know how that saying goes. (view post) |

Scully although I agree with you 99.99% of the time, I don’t see how it’s a problem other than the ability to transfer HUGE amounts of flezz unfairly. (view post) |

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionAcid Flux Posted:
I plan on it, then I won’t ever need to chase those peens again, and other people will and more flezz will get pulled out of circulation. I have other things I have been bidding on. Notorious B.I.G, ****.milf, building a frugality set, patching up my CHR set. The AH is getting used. It’s not just a haberdash of flip-flops and andy male reproductive organs. Log in to see images!

And while you sit there and say, “I agree.” You abuse the AH in the worst manner possible: http://forumwarz.com/auctions/show/3177
Exactly the thing ET said he would crack down on if he caught people doing it. That is what is abusing the AH looks like and you can rest bumured that they will remove your Flezz peen if that’s what you’re shooting for or you may quite possible catch a swift ban. (view post) |

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionPersonally, and I have no problem saying it, close to 500 if not surpbuming that. I’m sure I’m going to hate having done it forever if not for the simple reason that there are hundreds of tubmails with attachments in my box with no way to mbum “detach” or mbum delete. I spent a good 45 minutes doing so and didn’t even dent them. (view post) |

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionShii Posted:
There are numerous items on there that are extremely hard to get otherwise, not even including the headset/custom peen. Things are selling, people are profiting, others are receiving equipment they just couldn’t get their hands on, it’s removing flezz from circulation. If someone buys up a crapload of flip-flops and lists them, bumuming with frugality they paid, oh, 8-9 flezz each, they are still losing 9-10 flezz per flip-flop. Nothing is being abused there.

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionIt won’t have any effect on how the action house is run whatsoever. People can use it for both purposes while neither helping or hindering the other cause. The real big issue of the AH(Auction House) is loading up people with flezz who are low level or just friends, not selling copious amounts of items, which is exactly what you want because traffic through the AH is removing flezz from circulation through listing fees.

About the New Leaderboards, and SuggestionShii Posted:
I find it extremely annoying that all night you were attempting to do just that by buying Johnny Macs flip-flops in hopes of an e-peen as you stated multiple times, but flew off the handle when you discovered that buyout didn’t work as you had hoped and didn’t get them. Now suddenly you think it’s cheating? (view post) |
