i know this has probably been brought up and suggested dozens of times, but i haven’t seen any threads about it recently. i think that we should be able to buy and sell moar files in pieces as opposed to having to obtain the whole thing before transactions can occur.
i don’t mind grinding at all, but it’s really frustrating when you only need one more piece to complete a file and you can’t seem to pick it up. i’ve been one piece away from pink floyd for about three weeks now. i’m getting sick of using all my forum visits on hall of faded fame trying to get just the one piece.
would this be possible or would it totally **** everything up? |

I personally think this would make it too easy to bumemble the files.
Since it’s not like any one piece is the rarest, it would devalue the moars greatly because everyone could just sell the multiple extra pieces they don’t need. Also, it’s crowded enough with moar files as it is; it’d be a nightmare if each moar was broken down in 20-50 pieces. |

i understand why it might make it too easy to get the files, but couldn’t each piece be a fraction of what the file would usually cost? like, a pink floyd piece could be 90k flezz or so. |

Yeh, which is why it would totally devalue everything. |

Then I could get 4 pink floyds for a bit under 1 million flezz. Don’t bother with this concept, really. |

the full file could still be sold for the entire amount. i would only buy the pieces when i needed just a few. if people didn’t want to grind at all they would still be paying the same price to get the whole file. maybe i’m not understanding- explain how selling pieces would devalue everything. |

Take a look at my Pink Floyd pieces.

With this, I could buy 3 individual pieces (2 piece #38 and 1 piece #3) at a fraction of the cost of a full Pink Floyd, then turn around and sell 2 full Pink Floyds.
But everyone else can do this too, so people will just run visits until the diminishing returns get too hard, then just buy pieces. The result is that selling full items will be more trouble than it’s worth. |

using the word **** in nonrp, post reported
Mod Edit: This is trolling, and targeted trolling at that. Johnny Mac reply-quoted the OP, which is where the ‘offensive word’ first appeared. By choosing to report Johnny instead of the OP, you are specifically attempting to troll in Game Discussion.
And since you’re already banned for multiple offenses of this type, you now get to serve as an example to others. Reporting really minor offenses, or even ‘imaginary offenses’ and spamming the report tool is significantly worse than someone using a single four letter word on an adult forum. Knock it off.

Close the thread, so no one will reply to Big Brother, thus making him sad because no one pays attention to him. |

Supermerk Posted: You would have been better off spending the last three weeks grinding for flezz, two weeks probably would have been enough. It’s much easier to buy a Floyd than to grind it yourself, you’d get job points and pieces of other good moar files too. And yeah, trading pieces is a bad idea. Log in to see images! |
