Love is in the Air....


(Source- and additional Valentine's here!)




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.

How's the market doing? I want to liquidate my KS items for FRG but I think I missed my chance...

Kinda bad honestly, because so many people are jumping ship. I managed to get most of my stuff sold a few months ago, but the leftovers are just not moving. Considering just closing my trade threads and waiting to see if dappervolk survives until summer to try again.

Why is the site doing so poorly?

Lack of things to do honestly

op

the main story is grindy and is the central gameplay of the site. dailies are grindy. raising stats is grindy. fetch quests upon fetch quests upon gambling and stat outfit changes. once you reach the end of the story, that's it. you can continue to grind dailies for money and collect pets or apparel. like gaia but less fun. at least gaia has a combat game... dv has walking simulator. even if the main quest manages to engage people, there's nothing afterwards to keep them hanging around unless they're collectors.

i joined for the avatar dressup, art, and community, because i knew the gameplay looked dull, but every time i look there's fewer than 200 people online.

idk if there's anything in development that would make the site better but i hope so. i'd rather see them thrive than go down.

people burned out hard after the summer event, plus the regular grindiness anon above mentioned

Honestly, I saw this on the FR Forums from a user who (iirc, though memory may not serve me well in this instance) snatched up loads and loads of KS items way back when they were still desireable, and it cracked me up a little

> Update :: I need funds, and I'm honestly ready to quit DV. I've listed some prices which is usually their market price, and then the discount price. Because I'm UNDERSELLING, I will prioritize offers in gems and/or treasure. If you offer in potatoes, I will value your potato at 300-400:1 gem, because I'll need to transfer them for gems later.

Can it be called "Underselling" if it's not moving at the price you had listed it at? Can it be called "market price" if no one is willing to shell out so much for items on a site that has managed to kinda kill itself? I am so so so glad that I unloaded almost all my DV stuff and only kept a few items I genuinely liked and that my Avi is wearing. Maybe the site will make a comeback (I wasn't there for it, but I've heard that the early FR days were R O U G H), and if not, well, I only lost out on a little potential profit
