BINGO

Since this post will be current until January, thought I'd be salty/have fun with it. Let's see if we get Bingo, shall we?

the 1% of 1% definitely makes sense- i'd say boolean rather than imp scroll also qualifies, as does ks item duplicates. I've seen a couple people who qualify but way, WAY less than people with light sprites

i think it might be Gilded Crown in this context

ayrt

I started playing Sylestia and it's been unexpectedly fun, thank you for the suggestion!

(I have to say, though, it's not as intuitive as FR, if someone reading this wants to try Sylestia, read the Player Guides in the Forums first thing first, there are many ways to "mess up" if that's a thing you worry about!)

i hate how much the default "FR aesthetic" for dressed dragons is shitty layering and un-parseable visual noise. it looks bad, sis. coco chanel sucked but she was right about looking in the mirror and taking one thing off

ok now give me your petty gripes

my petty gripes include when people say "this is shit" instead of "this is not my taste", as if their own subjective take on something is required to be insulting to those who like what they dislike /lh

keeping on the treasure train for a sec, i hate how it's so hard to read how much i have. the font they use is TINY, and if i want to see in detail i can highlight it oh wait i can't, because clicking anywhere near it, even right clicking, just takes you to your hoard. because THAT'S logical.

This is weirding the absolute shit out of me and also explains pretty well why they constantly credit themselves for site update inspiration.

I really liked a lot of their accents and all these receipts are making me feel pretty uncomfortable just having them in my possession. At least it's nothing too serious I guess, I don't plan on getting rid of them or anything, but fuck it just feels so weird... I deadass bought accents from someone with an irl God complex. wtf.

I hate how the devs claim that when there is a new apparel release that the new bundles/apparel pieces will stock in increased quantities the first two (?) weeks.

Yeah I have seen zero of the new gardening apparel, I hate the "limited availability" marketplace system so much. Just let us buy the shit when we have the treasure.

And don't come up now with the argument tHe PoOr ScAlPeRs. Fuck scalpers.

oh hey what a surprise! my petty gripe is people complaining about "scalpers" because i don't think there's anything wrong with reselling shiny new items while they're hot.

prices--especially new apparel prices--tank pretty damn quick. that stocking period of increased quantity actually makes a huge difference. do you remember when that wasn't a thing and new stuff stocked in quantities no more than 10? because i do. shit was bananas.

let me make a quick buck for a few days by selling new releases to impatient people. i can't draw and i'd rather headbutt a belt sander than coli or fairgrounds grind. these lizards aren't gonna gene themselves and it's not like i'm out there lowballing newbies for their g1s. if everything was always available in the treasure MP it would be kinda boring and i think it would be influencing the player economy too much. let items be rare. let new stuff be exciting.

+1 to this

Most of those have HAD enough money to get a LS though, they just spend it on different things. It's one thing to say "Oh only the 1% could ever accrue enough money to get this item" it's another to say "You're the 1% because I buy skincents and art rather than saving for a LS"

It took me almost exactly a year of FTP moneymaking to buy a LS. I don't think that makes me the 1% in a 8 year old game.

this! i swear it takes me everything i have to not just instantly block everyone using the word "scalpers" on the forums, do people not understand "selling shiny new things to other players makes you money!" is something that's an integral and accepted part of the economy of pretty much every game it's possible to do that in?

you can complain about treasure mp not having everything in stock all the time, but don't take it out on players who are literally playing the game as intended.

when apparel in same general color aren't the same shade and that becomes apparent trying to use them on same dragon

i've seen stuff stock 50 at a time, how is that not increased

Re: negative nancy safezone

Extremely limited apparel colour combos. It should not be so hard to find dark purple and gold, or coral type pinks without brown.

Seriously, it's at most a couple of days where anyone can make a profit on reselling new marketplace apparel. New genes might give you a bit longer, but it's still no more than a week or so before the market is saturated, and everyone knows it. People know the price will drop. If they want it now, they're either loaded enough that they don't care or are very very prone to FOMO.

Nobody should be able to use fancy fonts for the body of forum posts.

My pet peeve is "every statement of taste is a direct personal attack" and having to qualify that I don't think my opinion is universal every time. Some things are shit and I don't want to apologise for saying that every single time when we're all capable of understanding it's an opinion.

since I just spent some time in scrying workshop:

the sizing of tundra females.

why are they floating. why are they so tiny when viewing in lair between other poses. wtf is up with them.

Agree 100% on the fancy fonts thing. It's even worse when they do it in pale pink at size 2.

This. It's part of why I never bothered installing the standard proprietary fonts on my Linux partition. I don't have to care about the style vomit they attempted when it shows up as a boring default fallback font for me.

Bitch, you want too much for your G1's, it's not that no one wants to buy, it's that you want way too fuckin much.
