I have a few pet peeves for sure.
  1. People who are not able to play their class at the most basic level. (IE. enchanters who wont CC, bards who wont CC, Root classes not using root, etc
  2. Melee players not being aware of an enchanter being in a group and hitting random targets at random intervals. (Love wasting expenisve mezzes in king groups just to break them 2 seconds later)
  3. Chronic AFK'ers
  4. People who do not call CC's
^These. Also a more recent one, people that spend weeks/months manipulating prices to squeeze a few extra k out of an item. The guy that was auctioning Fungi Staffs for 35k from at least November to March comes to mind, the price briefly went from 10 to almost 15k but is now back towards 10k. Is it really worth 6 months to squeeze 5k more out of a 10k item?

I don't know why it bothers me, I was never even in the market for a Fungi Staff, but it makes me want to bitch slap that guy. There have always been some douchebag EC resellers, but the number of them just blatantly manipulating prices seems to be at all time highs.

Caiu was implying that he was the person Triiz referred to (ie. "the guy that was auctioning Fungi Staffs for 35k from at least November to March") ... or at least that he too was one of the "douchebag EC resellers". He was also implying that Triiz was thanking those people, even though he clearly understood that Triiz was actually complaining about them.

I kind of thought that at first, but surely there is more plat in recharge heists than being an EC reseller.

+10000000000000

Just give me the frickin number and don't sit there and hope that I dont know the value and bid 300% price by accident.
I always don't enjoy those people who will send a tell about a 10k item and being like "anyway you could do 9.8k?" Or something to that effect. Is it really worth the extra haggling time for less than 500p difference?

Absolutely, when I'm outfitting an entire new set of gear for a new alt, and I get each item 5-10% under fair market value, thats a lot of savings.

Not to mention, everyone who is selling shit in EC tunnel is trying to get top dollar, and fuck all of that. When I see 5 of those bastards being sold, ya'll need to learn a little bit about supply and demand, because 9 times out of 10, one of those 4 other guys will take the 500pp less offer. Question is, is it gonna be you, or the next guy I send a tell to?

Thats the whole point of the East Commons Tunnel, haggling. If you don't want to haggle, go play Agnar and set up your bazaar mule.

People who trade EC like it's the stock market or a crypto exchange. I'll over pay and undersell just to get the hell out of there and get back to playing the game.

All the tunnel flippers and "emporium of ripping you off" shop runners should consider real trading - seriously you'd probably have just as much fun or more doing that.
