Some Luclin model still shots don't make me vomit immediately... but then they move, and my eyes melt. It's not so much the polygons as it is the animations - disgusting.

If it weren't for the Luclin models, I literally could not play this game. Long live Luclin models!

I used to use them, but they slowed down my load times. If I ever go full casual again I'll put them back on.

That sucks, is it a frame rate issue?

This is how TunnelQuest goes:

Legolas auctions, 'WTS Sword of Truth'
You tell Legolas, 'How much for Sword of Truth'
Legolas tells you, 'Make an offer'

Here's what really happened:

Legolas auctions, 'WTS Sword of Truth'
You tell Legolas, 'How much for Sword of Truth'
Legolas tells you, 'Make an offer. If your offer is higher than the going rate for Sword of Truth I'll sell it to you, but if your offer is lower than the going rate for Sword of Truth then I'll ignore any further tells'

This jackass obviously knows how much he wants to sell it for or he wouldn't be trying to sell it. 99% of people who don't put prices in their auction are trying to take advantage of desperate/ignorant people.

99% of the time I won't even attempt to buy your item if there isn't a price attached. I don't play that game. At least be honest, if you're looking for 20% above the going price for a certain item then just put that price in your auction blurb.

If availability exceeds demand, price goes down. If demand exceeds availability, price goes up. Arbitrarily attempting to stagnate a price at the GUIDELINE listed on wiki is a fool's errand. I could sit around all day attempting to extract MAX value at an item, or I could offload the shit i don't want and go back to playing the actual game and generating more pixels to sell at a later time. Only people that are inept at generating pixels to sell are "firm" in their pricing.

Regards.

Best explanation of the market I have seen, hope the tight asses take note...

Another attitude I hate is people just flat out ignoring a tell, it's a social game, why play if you don't want to talk to other peeps?

The afk function is there, use it!

As someone who has done my fair share of EC buying and selling on this server, I side with Tomtee on the price listing debate. In the majority of cases I do not list prices for items I am selling and Tomtee has already discussed some of my own reasons.

I will add that an additional reason that I don't usually list prices is that I WANT a potential buyer to send me a /tell so that I can get a conversation going. I believe that there are more people who will ask what the price is than people who will not because they assume I am intending to gouge. And what I'm worried about is someone not sending me a /tell because they don't have exactly the amount I'm asking for. If I can get a conversation going, maybe I find that the buyer has enough plat to make an offer close enough to my price point that I find it acceptable. Or maybe I find that the buyer doesn't have plat but instead has items for trade which I find to be a good deal. Or maybe I don't make a deal but at least I had a friendly exchange with someone.

I list with prices. I find when I'm buying from people without prices they're often tunnel fat cats wanting to flip items and always ask for the top end (or even a little above). That's just a waste of time to me, if I see a price I can work with, I'm at least sending a tell. I don't want to get coerced into a final price that I know isn't going to be good. Different strokes for different folks and all that [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
