Edit: I have updated the rules:

ADDENDUM TO RULE THREE (3): Because I do NOT want another instance of shit that happened this month, and the shit that happened in @anonrising, Fandom Politics are NOT ALLOWED. This includes, but is not limited to:
  •          Anime
  •          Fanfiction/Fanart 
  •         Anti/Proshipping war bullshit      
*These subjects almost inevitably bring up Anti/Proship bullshit and there are folks on both sides who might be triggered by certain content, or feel dismissed by various argument points on both sides. As a result, THEY ARE  NOT ALLOWED. This site is for DRAGON DRAMA, not your Pro/Anti shipping bullshit. Take it to fandomwank or fandom_secrets or whatever other platform they're using nowadays.

Unfortunately, the odds of another G1 discord taking off when this one is run by people tied to the G1 ping list is pretty low.

The new pinglist is a disaster, though. Maybe someone else can step in and do it right!

Hopefully she doesn't mind me sharing this, but I know Hex has talked with a few people including myself about starting up a smaller G1 discord. I'm not sure how well that'll go but I know she's been working on that pricing guide for a bit now and a lot of the members still seem to hold her in a good light despite her not posting as much?

I'm not completely sure on why she's not posting as regularly or what happened there, sucks regardless but whatever.

Honestly the current one isn't that useful. I don't give a damn about the memes, but I do start to side eye how people get ignored on price requests and some of the ones from unpopular folks that do get prices sometimes seem unreasonably low for their colors.

Harsh honest opinion here... her guide is useless and long, my ADHD ass suffered through it.

true, could be better if she chopped it up or set it up as an in-forum guide. I know she said it was WIP but I guess we'll see where it goes.

+1

Having seen it on Tumblr and skimming through it, the majority of it is useless fluff and/or her showing off her own dragons. It seems that she enjoys hearing herself talk.

also, her pricing is a bit.... off.
I've seen her pricing obvious fodder tier g1s for way too much in g1 hell.....
Like, giving pricing advice is nice, but sometimes you gotta be honest with people 'bout fodder tier color combos.

The issue is one person's fodder is another's dream g1. It's very subjective.

she could barely sell her dragon, let alone trying to teach others

ugh, you just reminded me with her odd choice of thread coding... why do people feel like there’s a need to keep their every comment in columns... it doesn’t even look pretty?

A new pricing advice server sounds like a dumb idea that'll just die eventually when she doesn't have the time catering to all the requests or get overwhelmed by the numbers. People are just gonna bitch about no pricing advice again after that.

What I've personally seen in g1 hell pricing advice is that people are lazy butts who can't seem to learn how to use forum search engine/ah search.

Most of them just slap a link to 10+ fodder g1s/slap any g1 link and go, "help me price pls uwu", and expect some poor soul to come along to do all the work when they could've either first, at the very least, look at ah sales.
Upon getting overlooked or not getting feedback, people start getting bitchy and throw tantrums on anon sites whining about how g1 hell pricing is useless, when literally ever other fr server, or at least the ones I've seen, that has a g1 channel, rarely do you get people attempting to give pricing advice.

tl;dr, g1 people are usually entitled snooty fucks.

^ yeah this anon touches on the most important point imo which is that people will ask for pricing on fodder G1s and no one wants to say the dragon is worthless. Also people sometimes just don't know what price something will be off the top of their head? If someone regularly buys, say, XXY green dragons, they will easily be able to give a price range when a similar G1 is posted, but come in with a blue and purple XYY and that same person will have no idea what to say. Messages getting "ignored" isn't necessarily out of malice.
