Too many trolls/fake auctions in EC forum atm

[schnickusaurus]

Hi,

Lately seen way too many trolls and fake posts in EC forum that im actually considering leaving the place and just do deals in game.

GMs please do something about it. Ill donate 10k plat if you want.

Examples (all of these were most likely fake):

Isn't it easier for you to gouge people in game anyway where they can't comparison shop?

FAKE NEWS IS A REAL PROBLEM

[spanky_kc]

You're an idiot and live in EC to much. EC tunnel is garbage the only way to get things done in a time efficient mana are on these forums. Please sell me these high end items that I linked. But......if you had them you would want 440% over market for them.

[Leiker]

Why would GMs care about you donating 10k to them?

Donno about others but this was legit. I was the buyer for this combined deal.

[nyclin]

OP's post summed up: other people are willing to sell for lower prices/buy for higher prices than me, plz ban

the tstaff post is particularly funny because its against the rules to comment on prices in threads where you aren't buying/selling, yet here he is accusing people of trolling the EC forum

[zanderklocke]

If it makes you feel better, I bought my AoN for 375K during Kunark and then traded it for 30K and Drums of the Beast. I'm pretty sure Drums of the Beast is not valued at 345K, but it is infinitely more useful to a bard than an AoN.

Prices in EverQuest are arbitrary. There is also no way to prove if someone is trolling either based on what you posted.

[Lobus]

Sounds to me like he's having trouble scraping up enough RMT to pay for Feb's rent... Poor guy is going to be tunnelquesting from a McDonald's bathroom in a week...

[schnickusaurus]

I could be wrong about some , could be simply you wasting plat paying overly much.

But some of these are fake sales, synchronized whenever you enter a sale you suddenly see ppl posting fake versions. Its not a huge problem since eventually i sell mines for the price I want.

BUT it shouldnt be allowed and it could in fact block / delay my trades.

I sold Fungi 44k
At the same time i see some asshat wts 42k

Why did i sell 44k when he coulda bought 42k?
Cuz its yet another fake sale trying to push my price down. Well news to you it wont happen i usually sell high.

Still annoying some ppl put these methods in system. Sorry if im mistaken with some examples however i know some ppl do this both in game and on forum.

FanD for ex should be blocked from EC forum imo. He never sold cobalt bracer for 15k
It does mess up though.

Can someone confirm if they bought Fungi 42k from Fatjoe in EC 3 weeks ago?
He spammed minutes after i put mine up for sale and sold mine the day after 44k and lots buyers st 43k since

So basically you're mad that you're getting undercut in a free market and think that all prices should be fixed to what you want. Got it.

Also, let's not forget your double standards: http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=263440&highlight=fungi
It's okay if someone sells you a fungi for 35k, but it's not okay for someone else to sell someone else a fungi for 42k.

[Lobus]

I can only imagine the nerd rage that will ensue when they finally catch him RMT'ing

If anyone normal does business with him(her?) then they are a bigger idiot

Didn't buy from Fatjoe but about a month or so ago I was able to snag one for 42k

If the original poster wants to impress me, then corner the Jita market in Eve Online with a substantial item...

Holy shit you're insane Schnick

[Zarcath]

You should have sold yours for 44k and immediately bought that guys for 42k, turn a 2k profit for nothing

[yyrkoon]

Shnick dude,

On behalf of the P99 community,
With all due respect,
Nothing personal,
No offsense meant,

But every single word you write on these forums make you sound like a huge freaking douchebag.

I don't care if you're rich or grind EC or resell, or whatever. For your own sake, shut the f up on the forums.

Much Love

[Pokesan]

I also hear he's the top suspect for the cyber attacks on p99auctions... RMT makes men do crazy things...

My boy Rudi is coming for you tho... trump-names-rudy-giuliani-as-cybersecurity-adviser (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2017/01/12/trump-names-rudy-giuliani-as-cybersecurity-adviser/)

[Troxx]

Sidebar derail incoming:

From a selling standpoint I could never understand RMT. The return on investment (risk aside) has to be impossibly bad ... significantly worse than minimum wage. One of the biggest draws for me to p99 was always the aggressive policing of boxing, hacking, and RMT. I know people there will always be some that game that game the system but the community as a whole has been kept pretty clean on this front.

Is this the same dude that instead of consolidating all his items into one thread normally makes a unique thread for each item so he dominates the first page of the forum?

real question is why would you even care about having 3m platinum if you only have a single 60, that's enough to equip the 1 char in full BiS droppables and MQ'd armor

oh 1000% it's RMT.... he's just so confident of his methods that he probably thinks no one will be able to catch him...

like I said before, if you buy or sell anything from him you're an idiot... and you'll probably have your account banned when they finally catch him

[schnickusaurus]

Trust me, ill never RMT. EverQuest is supposed to go on for'Ever'.. I will however join the new server as soon as it pops up, since this blue is now getting abit.... Over n done. Its simply not as fun as it used to be. We really need the new server now.
I probably wont try to get 'rich' in plat on next server. Believe me when i say this: its not worth it . The best part of p99 was not getting plat, that was just an unhealthy lack-of-moral addiction (im SK after all, whatelse could I do?) but it was the small bits in the game : the first time I completed my Dreadscale armor quest (by asking help from higher leveled players), or when farming Quillmane solo with my ranger which is practically impossible, or exping with a class i enjoy in the lower level zones like kurns, FoB.

It would be fun to start over from scratch , maybe make a druid , port some and save up for a Manastone and a Fungi while doing ports/low lvl farm :) you see this is something thats not possible here, cuz i already destroyed the gameplay for myself. This server is done soon :/

Yeah right. You sold Cetemonial Icky BP 6k? At the minute after i entered my sale @ 10k? The day after I sold mine 8.5k to Netsky who is a Reseller and will sell it at fair lvl 9.5-11.5k . You honestly believe ill accept your argument you sell 6k 'to make some plat'? Ur selling half price dude and resellers buy @8.5k. Im telling ya, way too many fakers :/

I'm not sure you're really enjoying Everquest though. Your plan is to start on the new server and then make money by porting people so you can buy things? The goal should be to level up and experience these camps for yourself.

On the spot statement. I can't understand people who grind plat to buy gear when you could actually play and enjoy the game at camps, etc and just acquire the gear. The game isn't going anywhere, there isn't another expansion, they will never make another game like this, what's the rush to buy pixels and increase plat pixels beyond what can ever be spent?

Im not crazy im just claiming this should be forum bannable since the guy made this setup specifically to sabotage my EC successes. Just because im rich in plat does not mean i deserve disadvantage to others. Im getting upset at it cuz its not just unfair, it takes away the fun for me. The game is still ok in tunnels, but the forums need stricter rules. Here ive served good evidence and GMs does have chance to ban FanD from EC forum at least.

Quick! Somebody log their enchanter and cast a clarity on Schnick! Guy's mind is foggy as fuck. You think my auction is fake because I'm trying to get the most plat I can for an item, and others are fake because they are offering items too low? What the fuck lol? Im sure you're upset because you wanted a T staff so you could buy LOW then sell HIGH, but since it's going up you can't get it for a dirt cheap price. You decide that certain auctions don't work well into your shitty ways of buying low and reselling high, so you get angry and think everyone is out to get you. Get some help and step back from online gaming for a bit you will be much happier, but I guarantee all of this will make you double down harder and you'll spiral into a worse and worse mental state. Thank god the world has this game to keep you occupied so no one has to put up with you in real life.

EQsale is an angry competitor so its not like you hurt my feelings here just a side note

Secondly, this is not about me wanting to up my profit, i am arguing EC tunnel forum has developed to a cheat zone. You are seeing my competitors and haters making several forum accounts , and some of these are trolls like Necro314(FanD most likely). How do i know this? Cuz such posts come with sickly low price directly after i posted mine. I dont make several accounts cuz i take responsibility for my actions and keep my auctions to Schnickusaurus forum account. Anyway im just saying forum police should prevent technical sabotaging by limiting new forum account creations. It will be easier then to prove trolls that only are here to sabotage. I could quickly fix this by making anonymous accounts myself but yaa this is just a tips how you could improve the rules as to keep the forum clean.

I bought a T-Staff to use for my monk a month ago on EC Tunnel forum for 28k. I bought a couple Fungi Tunics on EC Tunnel forum a few months ago 41k, 42k. Seems to be working okay for me.

The only problems I've had with it is when I do a search for things to buy and I find some idiot trying to sell them 50k over market average. I won't name names.

Hey Jim , well if the troll is there ie specifically aiming at destroying Schnickusaurus (trust me there are ppl who do this) if I always get such posts after my posts (example latest: Icky BP 6k, Wavecrasher 55k, Cobalt Bracer 15k, etc) it certainly is an informative and cheaty block to me since buyers will wrongly believe there are actually cheaper for sale.

But worst of all: if id actually fall for that cheat, it would make me lower my prices for Icky BP, Cobalt Bracer , Wavecrasher etc) .

[schnickusaurus]

But to be fair to you all -- i AM overcharging like hell ;) but my deals then settle at average/high. Its the way of the tunnel everyone knows this. But theres a difference. Im open about it, i dont lie, i dont have fake sales i actually have an item for sale /poke FanD

[Vallanor]

If you're wondering what you should pay for a rare high-end item, look at Schnick's price for that item and reduce it by 50%.

This is probably the dumbest thread I've ever read. You admit to "selling high" so you shouldn't be surprised when people undercut your laughably inflated prices. Seek help.

But worst of all: if id actually fall for that cheat, it would make me lower my prices for Icky BP, Cobalt Bracer , Wavecrasher etc) .

But no one would actually close sale at those WTS values as there is no real item for sale so it wouldn't make an effect?

And if a genuine seller does sell at those values then that is between them and the buyer; they both agree it is a tradable value.

Finally, If you believe there are buyers who value the item above those values you could buy the item yourself and flip it, making it your advantage?

Please elaborate further on how it is sabotage, I obviously need further elaboration to understand your perspective.

Oh, and have you considered how Velious focus on resists/hp, and availability of the chestplate of vindication might actually be both contributing to the devaluing of other regen breastplates you mentioned?

Yeah, well I hope you get trolled more often because this thread is fantastic.

[schnickusaurus]

Jim basically most stuff we write are yadayada / small details -- but the key things:

- if i lower price / am anxious to sell first and adapt to a fake troll seller , its definitely a cheat that worked out (destroying might be an incomplete word. More accurately would be profit-destroying act).

-any effect like Vindi BP etc is irrelevant. Icky BP is a must have for any new melee twink low lvl 1-20. thats why its simply no way the guy would sell 6k today. He would sell just as fast at 7-8k cuz it takes time for such item to reach the bottom.

PS. I did answer those posts that ill buy it to do the flip . But the guy didnt have it for sale

Im ok with low balling and selling high since i know that the deal in 90% of the cases settle somewhere in between.

But fake auctioning is nothing more than cheat.

These would be similar cheats:
-logging on alts doing fake wtb auctions, then log real seller mule doing wts at such price . Real buyers would adapt to cheater wtb auction

You get my point. People do this more often against me because 'they dont like me and they want to sabotage' . Well if i provide full proof (just check necro314 posts or fanD, then compare the post timing of items Wavecrasher, Cobalt Bracer, Icky BP), shouldnt this be enough to forum ban necro314 / FanD from at least EC tunnel? Yes of course it should. If we dont do it, of course you'll see more trolls keep doing the same cuz they know nothing will happen to them.

You really should stop posting in this thread.

[Superranger]

Ooooo new posts ! Most excellent ! Thanks Schnik for being insane and keeping me entertained !

[shtampy]

So undercutting is officially cheating. Ty for the clarification Berger King

[Swish]

Well if i provide full proof (just check necro314 posts or fanD, then compare the post timing of items Wavecrasher, Cobalt Bracer, Icky BP), shouldnt this be enough to forum ban necro314 / FanD from at least EC tunnel? Yes of course it should. If we dont do it, of course you'll see more trolls keep doing the same cuz they know nothing will happen to them. And yah then i would perma quit EC forum with Schnickusaurus . Maybe make my own new forum username. I dont like it though. Prefer better sharper rules

No it shouldn't. It's one thing to be a fat cat and manipulating prices for your own profits but to complain that people are undercutting you is pathetic. There's no reason to do it, and I know Fandango enough to know he's got better things to do with his time than troll a guy on blue server for selling items in a tunnel.

Your list of demands recently:-

1. More double XP weekends because "it suits my casual playstyle" (reminder you went from 58-60 on your iksar SK on 1 double XP weekend before the hybrid penalty was removed).

2. More rules to protect EC sellers from fake auctioning.

3. Banning people from the forums because they also want to sell an item you're selling.

I don't know how long the petition queues get but having to police things like this is funny. How about you set up a "Tunnel Watch" with other fat cats and make a weekly report to Sirken to look over? I'm sure he'll thank you for it.

[Lhancelot]

Jim basically most stuff we write are yadayada / small details -- but the key things:

- if i lower price / am anxious to sell first and adapt to a fake troll seller , its definitely a cheat that worked out (destroying might be an incomplete word. More accurately would be profit-destroying act).

-any effect like Vindi BP etc is irrelevant. Icky BP is a must have for any new melee twink low lvl 1-20. thats why its simply no way the guy would sell 6k today. He would sell just as fast at 7-8k cuz it takes time for such item to reach the bottom.

PS. I did answer those posts that ill buy it to do the flip . But the guy didnt have it for sale

Im ok with low balling and selling high since i know that the deal in 90% of the cases settle somewhere in between.

But fake auctioning is nothing more than cheat.

These would be similar cheats:
-logging on alts doing fake wtb auctions, then log real seller mule doing wts at such price . Real buyers would adapt to cheater wtb auction

You get my point. People do this more often against me because 'they dont like me and they want to sabotage' . Well if i provide full proof (just check necro314 posts or fanD, then compare the post timing of items Wavecrasher, Cobalt Bracer, Icky BP), shouldnt this be enough to forum ban necro314 / FanD from at least EC tunnel? Yes of course it should. If we dont do it, of course you'll see more trolls keep doing the same cuz they know nothing will happen to them.

Are you really missing out on that much plat that you actually worry about all the other auctions going on, and possible auctions?

"Fake" auctions, real auctions, cheap sales, overpriced sales, all of these things happen in this market.

You know this! You can't control what others put up for auction, or for how much...

Wootface once sold an Iksar Ceremonial BP for 5500pp, I seen it in EC with my own eyes, so saying that "thats why its simply no way the guy would sell 6k today" is wrong even regarding that exact item.

Some people are in a hurry or just want to move an item quickly.

Them pricing low has absolutely nothing to do with "cheating" or trying to sabotage your personal pixel sales business. It's hardly anything personal, aimed at you.

You sound like a strange, paranoid, delusional fool that probably needs to seek help getting so worked up over virtual items not moving as fast as you'd like here on p99.

[Guide.Chroma]

Petitions to staff go in the petitions board, you can build whatever case you have there. Otherwise this is one big rant, moved to RnF.

[Ravager]

Nice.

[schnickusaurus]

Agree with the GM, im bad for giving untimatum and should use the petition.
But seriously, my competitors are worse. Fake sales, trolling, gathering up like a pack of pussies, 10x mules followed up by 100x forum account, never stans for the trade done to avoid the hear/bad reputation, etc im not impressed

The only competitor with some guts out there is Sprawls really. Cred to you m8

Guido you can call me a retats, but youre not better with your silly 1time per year wts Fungus staff. The guy probably lost half his plat value previous year . Hes history, a used to be, no more, yet comes to the forum as if hes achieving anything still in game rofl.

-exp boost is my personal opinion cuz it suits my playstyle more now
They removed chardok exp deals. My Warrior would be 60 by now if i had leveld him before nerf. Kinda why i ask for more exp boosts now since its too hard for casuals. You do have a good argument against me here though: i spend too much time in tunnel instead of lvling. Im addicted m8 i simply cant help it. I enter the tunnel and i get stuck there. My Warrior is stuck too there now. Will try to get him out tho since he needs thurg faction to complete some armor quests that Europa was nice letting me leech up :=)

- i dont expect them to police so much but it would be nice if they actually made a clear rule about fake auctions cuz then i could actually report them if i see it . Maybe there already is such rule though? I assumed there isnt since i see it happen many times

- he trolled me many times m8 not just 1 time. He obviously got a thing for me. Also note others dont get that shit after their wts posts so theres a reason i bring this up, as im heavily under fire from time to time.

[schnickusaurus]

Isn't it easier for you to gouge people in game anyway where they can't comparison shop?


Good point and yes im thinking about leaving the forums

[schnickusaurus]

You're an idiot and live in EC to much. EC tunnel is garbage the only way to get things done in a time efficient mana are on these forums. Please sell me these high end items that I linked. But......if you had them you would want 440% over market for them.

if you bought couple of Elder beads, or gambled on some Wavecrashers you could sell for over 500k in a year and buy 4 of those high end items. You shouldnt be so eager to buy them. Tips from coach

[schnickusaurus]

Is this the same dude that instead of consolidating all his items into one thread normally makes a unique thread for each item so he dominates the first page of the forum?

A good point. I have shortened this now though. Never too late to improve yourself :p

[necro316]

dont think ive ever seen 7 consecutive posts

this dude is MAD

and he is on drugs

[schnickusaurus]

real question is why would you even care about having 3m platinum if you only have a single 60, that's enough to equip the 1 char in full BiS droppables and MQ'd armor

i can think of a reason...


A very solid question m8. No its not RMT
But i am acting in a way as I predict the economy
I have already written an analysis of the economy when new server comes out. This along with the fact that i do not want to play druid or cleric on this server made me decide to sell all my 5 manastones. I expect them to hit as low as 100-150k when new server is out while price on new server will plunge from start level 100k down to 30-40k in time.
I never keep BiS buy items, they will all half in value. I would be 100% stupid, like Spanky and Bigmoneyballs if i bought velious BiS items at this point.

I hold plat, beads, ornate pendants, Seaworthy planks, CoS and a feeew Wavecrashers as a fun gamble (if wavecrashers go down, ornate pendants go up, and vice versa) thats why i have high amount of pendants and low amount of Wavecrashers, total value around even to cancel out the plat risk when 1 of them might go bad.

IF and IF GMs rewamp Sirens and Wavecrasher gets removed, i will not only be worth 3mil plat, but potentially 5 million plat :) if not ill remain at the 3 mil lvl

Have you read the Red99 forums lately ? Have you read your answer here ? Might explain why nobody want to play over there. It just seems like the average Red player is even more insane than Schnick. The fact that EQ pvp is fucking trash might be a reason too, who knows

How is it trash? I grant you permission to elaborate.

Based on your posts and most of red posters its pretty horrendous, just to be blunt

You have their permission. Consider yourself honored!

Hah i knew it was you :p i should seriously join the server staff, i can track down anyone regardless their fake accounts. But really, if you want to beat me, dont choose EC auctions. Noone can beat me there. Im among the kings of plat and i seal the deals.
Just look at Ornate Velium Pendant. I had 7, wanted to get 8th for long term investment . I was taunted and harassed on forum from ppl sending fake auction offers, Jygia refusing to sell to me, etc. But i wrote to you all: i wanna buy my 8th on tuesday. Guess what? I bought my 8th on tuesday :p i get what i want, i find my way to seal the deal. You cant beat me FanD, this is my Dragons Den and you are the rogue hobbit that entered :P
Im sure you would do a difference on red though. Im actually tempted to start an alt there. Just dont know what class id make :P cleric maybe to be able to self rezz

[schnickusaurus]

For those interested:

Sold Ornate Velium Pendant 19k
Bought back on tuesday 15k. Net profit --- 4k or 21%

Anyways, fun as it might be to stay here, i am now leaving rants as I believe i have made my point. Getting back to my very first post in this thread: FunD = Necro316 merely trying to destroy my plat profits. Its good to know I was right . Later, over n out.

[Swish]

One thing I don't get about fat cats. If you know they're a fat cat you probably know you're paying the top end price... and as much as some people hate EC, surely it's worth saving 5k-10k by waiting for a reasonable seller with a grain of integrity over using someone bragging about a 3 million plat stash? :/

[Swish]

I don't enjoy the tunnel. The majority of the best items in the game aren't "for sale" anyway, being no drop. I prefer to earn items by raiding/questing/etc but that's me :)

tbh im more friendly in game. This is rants after all.
I admit my reputation is crap. It should be cuz my main profit comes from lowballing people and then overcharging them.

BUT BUT BUT listen to this:

2 million of my plat comes from low balling the high end guilds. Thats A/A, Rampage.
Yes thats right, my main sneaky deals are done on the wealthy ones.

So im Robin Hood. Love me now. I need to change my reputation and come clean.
Appreciate you trying to get me out from my addiction. I want to, i just cant .

Anyways im in investment mode now. 1mil plat in plat, 2 mil in beads, plankings, pendants, CoS etc. The re-selling stopped here and now cuz i figured i dont want to continue be an ass to people and id like to become more like Quido (Jeremy or whatever they call him) ie sit on my back doing nothing while the value of my investments go up.

It's as if they feel some personal attachment to plats to the point any perceived loss of potential gain due to others making plats causes emotional distress inside them.

Schnick once did a good samaritan thing in Europa... he sold something for the market value to a guildie (or was it the guild bank?) and was quite pleased with himself because he didn't put his profit margins first for once, although he probably lowballed to buy it so still made something.

He was also chasing a SK epic at the time and looking for nice guy points I think, so it wasn't totally altruistic. Thanks for showing your "kind" side, sir...one of the servers true samaritans <3
