Abusing the market
Moderator: moderators
Ok, fair enough.
I will "explain myself".
I don't see the many ads on the market from one company so much as a problem because I feel everybody can use their amount of ads (40 for non and 60 for premium) the way they see fit, as far as I am concerned.
I understand it can be annoying to see such a long list of offers, but to me it is not annoying enough to think about it too long, I buy what I need and get on with my business.
But ofcourse I do understand others might see that differently.
But being annoyed or irritated by something does not always have to result in making a rule about it like you suggested, to me this issue with the many ads is not important enough to do so.
I think there are more important issues that would need to be resolved in this game.
So I just don't agree with you (if that's ok) although I do see the point rasfast makes about the respect thing.
Some players simply choose to advertise themselves in this more agressive way, and it might not be the most sympathetic way, but it is their choice.
They will have succes with their approach or they will have not, they will soon find this out as players who get irritated by this way of advertising will not buy from them, and others who are not bothered will.
In other words: I think it will sort itself out.

Well ok, fair enough, thats one way of looking at it.
I have no limitation of how many posts I can make on this forum. But that doesn't mean that I can make how many posts as i like in a row and type the same thing over and over again just to make my point.
And if the people working with this game don't have enough resources to take care of problem like spam in the market then I'll understand, but this is only speculation at this time as I have not heard someone involved with this game saying so.
And perhaps these spammers might not disturb the buyers as much as the other players selling the same product. They all wan't to be seen.
Well I've taken this to the Suggestions and Proposals section, and hopefully they will reconsider doing something about it. So the admins will do whatever they can, or wont.

Your accusation doesn't make sence at all either, but it obviously doesn't stop you from continuation of your accusations.00110110 wrote:That makes no sense at all. You clearly don't understand the definition of spam.Ronintje wrote:LOL, things aren't spam cuz you say so.
Then i could say you should be banned from the forum cuz i consider your messages in this thread to be spam.
Imagine what the world would look like if they would agree with that
They clearly don't refer to the market with that rule.
Wikipedia is great. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_(video_gaming_term)

Ok ok, we got the point already!
You are against "spamming" the market!
We don't know the true meaning of spam and you do, that's just fine by me.
So I hope you will be able to convince an admin to make this an offence and then you will be happy.
Well good luck with that, thanks for the interesting "debate" and lets move on, but please stop this now, it is starting to look like...OMG...could it be...SPAM!!!?

I'm beginning to move to that side where I "don't care" It seems hopeless anyways. When nothing can be done, maybe it is better then just to just let it be, some people will get annoyed by them and rather buy from someone else that have larger amounts stacked in one offer, it is their loss.
I tried spamming myself and people don't seem to like it so it will just harm my company.

Nahhhhh.
What i think moehahahhaahhahaha
Well, when you have to buy power at 0.23 and think, its to much.
You have a big stack of your own.
Sell it at a cheaper price and small amounts so the entire page is filled with your power, you have a chance that other sellers will see that the market price has dropped ( even if it hasent realy) and they will sell their power for even less so they can sell faster. You can buy up their power for a cheaper price again. In realm 1 you probably have to be really big allready before you can pull that of ( because there is such a great need for power) but in realm 2i can still see this possible. its just the same as buying up all the power ( or whatever resource) and reselling it for a higher price. All you need is the cash to do so. And offcourse some luck.
