    Cool My item, My price!

    This is to all of you who take the time to assume you know what your talking about. I have been around quite some time. I have a fairly good idea of the value of "MY" junk. If I feel I can sell my "Ring of the Ancestors" for say 200K..well guess what, I might. Or I may ask 750K for it. Maybe more.

    It is mine, and I can set the price for whatever I want to. There is no need for you to bombard me with tells telling me I am "charging to much", "ripping someone off", "ballooning the market" ( <--one of my favorites.). I have been sent nasty tells for some of my trade items.

    Bottom line: It is mine and I can sell it for whatever I choose.

    These are pixels people. No need to get so worked up about other persons pixels,

    So mind your own pixels and move along.

    Aaahh, I feel better now.

    So since this is the marketplace forum, does that mean you are selling that high horse of yours?

    First of all.. You are almost right.. You can set your prices at whatever rate you want..unfortunately... ANYTHING is only worth what SOMEONE will pay for it... Make it 100,000,0000 if you like...and like life.. People complain no matter what the price..do whay u want and suffer the consequences..

    ^^ this... just as it is your right to try and charge 10k pp for that +1 holy light hammer, it is our right to let everyone (mostly new players) know you are trying to rip them off big time.

    If it's level 4 (or 2 rr), that would be worth almost 10kpp. Hard to find such a good twink undead weapon, even if it is just a light hammer.

    10k for a +1 holy light hammer? Id MUCH rather see that than see some moron spamming "+2 splint mail 400plat send tell" and similar junk for multiple lines and hours on end


    even after multiple people tell him that its vendor trash and noone should ever buy it, the spam continues.. "+1 quarterstaff of crippling, 275 plat, plz snd tel"

    My GOD, people, you make more money than that vendoring and running Irestone again than you make spending hours selling ****. GET SOME PERSPECTIVE.

    FUnny thing is; I'd pay 100k plat for such a weapon, if I'm building a twink and need an undead beater.

    It sounds like a warning to new players to me. I fail to understand what is threatening about "/tr Hey, new players - Ioun Stones are some of the most sought after items in the game. Don't let someone scam you out of your loot without checing on the DDO forums to see what kind of outrageous prices you can get for it!" or something similar.

    Making a macro of that and sending it every time you see a known scammer (and there are some known scammers on Argo even if we can't name them in the forum) is about as far from harassment and threats as anything I can think of.

    Would you also report public service announcements during fire safety week (October 9-15, 2011) for threatening and harrassment?

    +1, The idea is solid, but the text may is still an issue. Simply calling it a "scam" makes it an attack on the person that is trolling for stones. Also drop the new players bit since many long-time casual players can fall into the same trap. Then bump it into the advice channel so you're not cluttering up the trade channel.

    "Advice: Ioun Stones are some of the most sought after items in the game. Don't part with your valuable loot without checking on the DDO forums to see what kind of outrageous prices you can get for it!"

    It's now neutral in it's wording and still gets the message out.

    It's always a shame when the hammer of poor design choices smashes the fun of player tactical adaptation.
