Honestly, I have less problem with pet sites doing it than big business. At least this isn't keeping someone at a job on the holiday when they could spend it with loved ones.(I worked 8 hours on Thanksgiving.)

"Apologies. We bundled the cycled item in the same timeframe as the 4 day gem sale so they'd go off and end at the same time. They've now been split so the gem sale is 4 days and the item cycle is 7." - Undel

Do you have any proof anyone is saying that gem purchasers are lesser? Or are you making shit up

yeah, this exactly. i feel a lot better about a virtual BF purchase than an online or in-person one where i KNOW all the workers+shippers are hating every second of their overworked shift.

i really hope the rest of your turkey day was enjoyable, anon.

From the creator's tumblr.

ayrt
I moved to a Meditate-based built, so I can start on basically anything but the bosses, so I honestly idk by now, sorry

It was. I had the next day off, which I spent at home and not out in the insane sales. I will not encourage any in person Black Friday sales on principle.

After googling the character it was based on... I see why it was removed.

Yeah it's not a subtle reference.

i don't think people are upset with the cyber monday sale itself; i think people are upset with a gem sale in addition to cycling in strictly gem store items that haven't been in stock for the last ~8 months. it heavily encourages "buy gems now while you still can before missing out on these items for another year!"

saying it's "shit timing" makes it sound like staff didn't have a choice in when they cycled items back in. looking at the schedule, it looks like this (gem sale + bringing back cycled items to encourage fomo) has never been done on fr before.

also... fr to walmart is apples to oranges lol. you can still buy that $500 tv at msrp after the black friday sales without needing to wait a year.

Guess I'm strange. Because the buy gems or you'll miss it pressure is there no matter what, and at least I'm getting more gems for my money this way.

i also laughed harder than expected after going through that thread

you can still buy the cycled-out items from other players year round, though. not buying them from the gem MP while theyre cycled in doesnt mean you need to "wait a year" to get the items..?

did you just forget that the AH exists?

Getting this error on every FR page. A quick search showed that this is an issue some other users have too requiring them to clear their cache.

I got this problem 2 days ago and cleared my cache but now it's back. Anyone experienced this before? Any permanent fix (besides switching to incognito every time I want to play FR)?

sure you can pick them up from the ah any time of the year, but if you want the cheapest option--especially if you want to buy multiple wc scrolls and don't want to pay at least ~300-500g each more than they need to--people will wait until they're cycled back in.

This may be too ridiculous for even the wanker thread but I just checked dom watch and this reply absolutely sent me lmao

>be thankful that YOU have access to the things YOU love and value in your life - and that you're not told that they're vile and should be "inflicted" upon others so that they can share in the "disgusting" - because you don't know what things you consider a daily must have - that others find revolting.

Ma'am it was a joke. A JOKE. ABOUT GATORADE.

What's even funnier is the next post about how they can't stand Spongebob.

At least it was worth a bingo space?

sa

at least I was assuming it was "judging people for inane reasons" but I might be wrong

DA
I think you're right because I'm sure that if you looked up 'inane reason', judging Argante's "thankfulness" based on their post of gatorade with protein will be one of the examples.

Amazing how they wrote 5+ paragraphs about a "Look, dis food funny" joke.

Argante was clearly making a meme joke and jazilee had some obnoxious traumatic breakdown

i hope they don't shop at walmart. walking through aisles of children screaming "no i don't want ittt" must be like walking through fire lmao

holy shit "obnoxious traumatic breakdown" perfectly describes it. I remember ffirst reading through it and thinking "does this person have some sort of unchecked trauma or mental illness?"

If it works in incognito then it's likely a profile issue; something is going wrong somewhere in there! When any of my browsers pull that stunt I backup my bookmarks and remove the install completely (both via package manager and by purging any leftovers; I think Windows has similar add/remove options + cache/config/'ghost' files per profile?) and a clean install almost always fixes it. The only time it hasn't, it turned out to be a bug the developers released a fix for in the next update.

A clean install is also a good way to test out plugins one at a time when it's fresh, to ensure it's none of those misbehaving with some background update they didn't inform you of. And if Windows is being an ass about actually doing a clean removal, I believe that there's third party programs that search for and remove any ghost files left behind.

And of course it likely isn't the cause, but I like to power cycle the net and do IP + DNS just on superstition at this point. I swear sometimes it fixes things that it's not even supposed to interact with (probably actually a coincidence, but eh, it doesn't hurt.)

da

furthermore, I want to point out that a good chunk of the userbase are super casual and don't make a lot of treasure on FR so they rely on outright buying the gems from the site to buy gem items from the AH/marketplace, OR save up for a loooooooooooong time. I'm sure a lot of people in this anon community can whip up 300-500 worth of gems with ease but our experiences aren't universal and 300-500 gems can mean a lot to the more casual userbase. People like them benefit immensely on the recycled WC scrolls as well as the bulk buyers, etc.

BINGO
