Bad Player

Post by Guest » 03.09.2008, 20:27

There is a list with bad players. Those ones who make a deal and dont keep the words?
One big guy send me a messeger with agreement to buy porks at one price until de end of the contest...now he cancel all my contract and start to buy in the market.

He got the right...but i am sure noone will belive him!

Thanx

Was it "[edited]"?
He did that to me last contest - and then said "oh you obviously didn't read my small print which says I have the right to cancel your contracts and change my pricing whenever I feel the need"

I suggest you simply learn from this mistake and never deal with him again.

[EDIT by GoldenEye: Please do not denounce other players! This is not fair... you can discuss trade-methods of other players, but please without any names! I removed the company name from your posting... ]

there is nothing wrong with that, just bad business ethics.

And that is exactly what is wrong with it. Many business programs in schools now require ethics courses, so things like this don't happen in real life.

ethics is great! i had class in business school, for sure... but since we dont have tools to make sure taht contracts are respected i propose i list with bad behavior companies. Just like in real life... so people wont do business with that kind of people!

This guy set with me an agreement of buy my hole production of porks...

I sent to him...10k and 2 days later...he refuse telling me that he dont have money...but thats not true...because he is buying from market...when he propose me a deal...my price was lower than market..
So was convinient to him buy in lower price...than he went to market to get lower prices...

keep your word in bussines...cause i will dont some bad things to that guy...we cant run a world without rules...

Just i thought!

Yes I can understand you get angry when you make a deal with someone and then he don't keep his promise.
But I had a problem like this the other way around.

When I first started this game i knew absolutely nothing about it, and so when a big company approached me (I wont say the name but he is on page 2 of fixed assets :wink: ) to sell him steel for i think it was 125, i thought I made a great deal so I sold him all my steel every day.

After a couple of weeks I saw in the faxes companies offering 133 and even 134 for steel, but I still wanted to keep my promise, so i kept selling him my steel for that cheap price.
Then I decided to change this deal, I figured I couldn't go on forever doing this .
So very nervously LOL I send him a message telling him I wanted to up my price, and I explained why, I also said if he did not want to, I hoped he would understand that I had to take my business elsewhere.

Well..all hell broke loose!! :shock:
He was VERY angry.."we had a deal, I couldn't do that, I was a dealbreaker" etc.
I remember i felt very confused and intimidated but also a bit giggly,
I mean it is like someone here said, this is just a game, so my god what was this guy going on about!!
I think he almost worked him self up to have a heart attaque!! :lol:

Anyway, I was so intimidated :roll: i kept the deal going for another couple of weeks but i graduately started to get pissed off, realizing he was taking advantage of my lack of experience in this game.

I can tell you more things about this guy, but i won't, exept for one thing.

There was a contest, wood I think, and I put my wood on the market and then i got a message from him, telling me he would buy my wood.
I told him I already put it on the market and had nothing left.
Then he practically ordered me to take it off the market and sell it to him because I would never get the price I asked for it, it was way to high.
That did it for me!!
I told him to go **** himself and deleted him from my addressbook and never dealt with him again.
And ofcourse I sold my wood within the hour on the market at the price I asked for it. :twisted:
