I know which player you're talking about. They found out I was saving for this G1 and I was SO close to buying it. I only has 150g left. Well they bought the dragon 'for me' but paid more than what I was going to pay for the dragon. They bragged about how much they spent on the dragon to everyone and kept asking how I was looking after the dragon. They wanted me to make it a Banescale because that's their favorite breed and that's the breed the dragon should be since THEY bought it for me. They also tried to pick out the genes I used for it as well.

I got sick of it and gave the dragon to a friend and sent the user what they'd paid on the dragon so it could just end there and be done. No more harassment, dragon isn't with me and I paid them what they bragged they bought the dragon for right?

Wrong.

I was cruel for re-selling the dragon, how could I do this with a gift they gifted to me, didn't I have any respect for them. 'Oh I know who I won't be gifting this dragon to! Not after the last time!'

I didn't ask for them to buy the dragon for me. I was working on buying it myself. I wanted to make sure that I did it on my own and when I didn't get to do that, it ruined the dragon for me. Anytime I posted a dragon, they would PM me and ask if I needed help buying it or not since it 'takes me a long time to get the funds'.

The user would constantly lord it over me that they had bought my dream dragon and I'd 'gotten rid of it'. It happened in PM's on discord when I stopped posting and then she got upset I blocked her on FR. She complained to people that I had taken a gift dragon, 'resold it' and blocked her. Always left out that I paid her 5kg when I was only going to buy the dragon for 2.5kg because she offered the seller 2x what we had agreed on.

I don't post dragons I'm interested in now unless I own them and are fully gened which bothers me because I like sharing the evolution of the dragons as I get them. That user ruined sharing dragons for me. Being told I sound ungrateful by the mod ruined fire for me.

HAH! I know this person. They randomly DMed me about my BSJ submission saying “Oh I love your BSJ submission but it will never win because the colors are too dark- love your art though!” or something along those lines, very passive aggressive. (I submitted it btw and I got it back first try with no denial for me to fix the apparent “dark areas”).

They also were passive aggressive towards me about a particular special ID dragon. Had very few digits, and I personally as an ID collector, love dragons with special IDs like that. They mentioned they were looking to give them to a good home, I naturally asked about it, and got shut down with “only to people who i trust *squinting eye discord emoji*”. The fuck? Why fucking post it then lmfao. Apparently this person makes people go out of their way to gain their “trust” and shit from what i’ve heard- so these posts don’t sound too far off from this person.

To keep it short: Ik who you are talking about and they are bad vibes all around. I’m glad they are not in the OOF Fire Discord anymore and if they pop up anywhere else I am punting them far away from me.

38428 ID going by lucara atm, was tamaska.

Fire Discord has a loot share where people can share what they got that day. It can be dragons, apparel, sold auctions, accents, everything. I showed off that I bought 2 will o' the ember's because I'd saved up enough for them. I had been working on getting them and got some good tips from other users on the server so I posted the screen shot of the 'purchased will o' the ember's' and I was excited. They were playing when the embers were released and had been prior to that too. I found out she had played for far longer than I had in that moment because she decided to brag about the collection of embers and how cheap they were when they first came out. She can't believe how much I paid for them and that was a mistake right? Could I get a refund? and she laughed at me.

I was 2 months into the game at that point. I moved to a new flight and then a few months later she moved to my new flight. So I'm waiting to see if I can't move to get away from her again or if I should just restart with a new account somewhere else. This sucks. I don't want to be involved in flight activities because I don't want to cross her path again. I moved to get away from her and she followed!!

anyone got screens/proof?

what the fuck. While looking through this thread I had decided to block the person, but this is someone I've been friends with for years. I'm not trying to question anyone's honesty at all, but it's really difficult to hear and believe this kind of thing about someone I've known for so long. Again, to reiterate, I am not saying this person is innocent, only that it's difficult for me personally to wrap my head around since I've known them for so long. I know it sounds like this is old drama, but does anyone have screenshots/other proof of any of these incidents?

I have a screenshot of Lucara about the BSJ submission I made- and I could probably dig around for the other stuff. Only issue is I wish to be kept anonymous lol.

By the nature of it being about a BSJ submission I don't think there's any way to be perfectly anonymous. I'd be happy to set up a google form that you could submit image URLs to that only I would see, or give you my FR/discord to do the same, but I can't really think of any way to stay fully and completely anonymous. (I'd also rather not publicly post my discord honestly, though I'd be fine with DMing it through the site or something similar.)

Totally up to you on whether you're comfortable with it; I don't want to force anyone out of their comfort zone.

They might move to Earth next as they tend to target “wealthy” flights so they can rub their wealth in everyone’s face but also get free stuff in return. They joined the Earth Flight public server for all flights and jokingly threatened that “no one’s wishlist is safe.”

SA - I hit post on accident. Don’t respond to this, just the one above.

Lucara, whether they know they’re doing it deliberately or not, puts others down to build themselves up. They brag about how they gift others, when the people they gift are only given those things to do exactly what they want, without always telling them.

However, Lucara doesn’t hold themselves to their same standards. They participated in an auction to get some level 25s. This auction was set up in particular for users who don’t have level 25s-— Lucara has 200 level 25s (we’ll come back to this in a second) —-and they bid/purchase a a couple from the lot. 4 out of 8 iirc(?)

They talked publicly how they loved the dragons, only to immediately flip them for 300g the moment they came into the lair. The original owner and leveler saw this, bought them back and sold them again for a higher price. However, this was the straw that broke the camel’s back as Lucara had once proclaimed to be making an event that gave away level 25s to newer players and they needed help leveling dragons. A few players stepped up and leveled all of the dragons they requested - I believe 25 in total but I could be wrong.

They have still, to this day, never run that event and they have no interest in doing so. They took free labor from Fire Flight players who were willing to help and proceeded to add it all to the collection.

I do not have screenshots of these events as I have since left the Flight, so if anyone in Fire also witnessed this, please share!

Is Lucara even that wealthy? They say they don't even have a Light Sprite

Re: Fire Dom Tea?

(Anonymous) 2022-08-20 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Some people don't value light sprites, so the lack of one isn't exactly a great indicator of lack of wealth. At bare minimum, they have "over 500+" Will o' the Embers, which are about 1kg according to LAH atm, so that's ~500kg in assets (not that they'll ever sell them). Assets isn't the same as liquid, but even if you only count a fraction of that, it's still far more than a light sprite is worth, and that's without anything that they've got on dragons, in their hoard/vault, etc.
