ATTN: Blue Players Searching Forums

[The Grey Witch]

Blue Players,

I get 5-10 PM's a day from you wanting to buy stuff. 25% of the time a second PM follows realising you are looking at a WTB/WTS Red List.

You can search solely the blue trading forums if you narrow the search criteria by forums. See "Search in Forums" on the below screenshot.

If you don't do that, take a look at the right side of your search results.
See "Forums" on the below screenshot. If it says PVP vs EC tunnel, you might want to consider it invalid results for your search.

Thanks - stop being lazy/dumb.

You're playing on red so I would assume you have the free time to deal with WTB/WTS issues since you only have to worry about the 1 other red player buying something once a year.

Hey there! I don't really think it's a matter of people being "lazy or dumb." Rather, when a vast majority of postings are blue-related-- I don't know, 95%+?-- this is simply an easy thing to miss / misconstrue.

Players aren't trying to waste your time! That said, anyone selling on red is probably going to have to deal with this. Asking the 95% of players to change their search habits probably isn't going to happen realistically

This doesn't have anything to do with the thread, but did any1 ever notice the relation of Players per blue/red Server and rants&flame post per blue/red forum?

At this Moment, blue server has 800 ppl playing, red server has 30 ppl playing.
So roughly 25x more Player on blue.
However: blue rants/flame forum has 440k Posts, red rants/flame forum has 280k posts, so the factor is only About 1.5 here.

Aren't red players always claiming how easily you can solve problems in game on red? apparently not.

I think another factor in that is that Red players like to hang around the forums and trash talk each other long after they stop playing the game. Plenty of Blue players do this in RnF too, but I just think the Red forum community is "stickier" (relative to their actual server) in this regard.

Red players have 25x more mental illness than blue players, which is saying a lot.

Good luck with the increase in messages from blue players.

[Jibartik]

isnt making other red players mad the point of playing on red?

Wouldn't happen on red; disputes are handled by pvp.

[fuckshit22]

For some yes, but the best feature of red is not having to wait in line to do what you want to do in game.

[Worry]

I'm one of these lazy dumb people he's talking about.

I saw it was Red forums but just figured he mistakenly put it there tbh.

My bad OP.

Dear fellow Red player,

It will never end, you will continue to get messages months after you post something for sale in the PvP Trading Forums, so let me offer you some advice.

I too suffer from these messages.

While making a long RnF post with images is pretty fun, here is a better way to deal with it:

Oh look a prospective buyer of my wares.

Lets take a closer look at our buyer.

Look at this silly Blue player, he must not know how to use the advanced search function properly.

BOOM, problem solved.

I guarantee you will never hear from him again, no follow up bargaining, no apology, not even an acknowledgement of your reply.

I saw your posting in EC, and was going to message you.. I realized beforehand that it was a red post, but only because intuitively I thought with the amount of items you had for sale and at your prices it couldn't possibly be a BLUE player. I looked around on your post and didnt see it anywhere mentioned that you were actually from RED... So it might help to put that somewhere in your posting

FOR SALE ON RED SERVER

Still got messages, don't get yourself worked up about it though, its not a big deal.

[Iksar Master Race]

WOMP WOMP WOMP!

[shuklak]

Selling on red is one more reminder that i just haven't hit rock bottom yet.

IM not talking to you, you arrogant Rediot

[Iksar_with_a_plan]

^^^ I wish I could edit my posts. I spoke too soon...

To Miro2:

You've hijacked this thread with such Textbook Narcissism that i've built up more contempt for you than the shit I just took. *Spits. I mean the first time I looked at your avatar/profile picture I rolled my eyes. I feel as if its the quintessential image of your personality. The smug entitled cunt that you are. Except for the fact that I imagine your not a cartoon elf, but an overweight curmudgeon, with the facial features of a troglodyte. Next time I want your input, i'll slam my head against a wall, as to be able to better comprehend your mindless, self-absorbed nonsense without distaste...

Thats my rant and flame..

[shuklak]

Show that drywall who's boss.

[DromalPhrenia]

How long do you keep auctions up on red before someone actually buys your stuff?

[aaezil]

I got spawned camped the time i tried red by some guy who de-lvled his lvl 60 for almost 3 days straight so i dont feel bad really

[MiRo2]

Next time I want your input, i'll slam my head against a wall, as to be able to better comprehend your mindless, self-absorbed nonsense without distaste....

I look forward to the next time you want my input

Red is the Florida of P99

[DromalPhrenia]

Red is the Florida of P99

WOAH. Florida at least has entertaining stories. Rude. (I'm not Floridian tho, so fuck em anyway)

I heard once that the reason for so many Florida Man stories is that Florida makes all of its arrest details public, and other states do not. But I don't care enough to research it.

Arrest details are public everywhere in the US

You seem like a very smart and not at all gullible guy

Red players take Everquest hyper seriously without actually ever logging in...its a cool trick.
