Attention Probe Lovers

Dear god... So you took all the probes.... slightly Amusing....... But shows you have one of the worst mineral lusts i have seen yet...

 

probes are awesome!



i wish i could afford all those motherships...

 

well, you probe-ably wont (god i am lame )

 

I hope you don't buy all those motherships! I want to eventually have one!

 

HAHA i WILL buy all the motherships in just 2 years!

hahaha

 

If there are any left at that time. 2 of the 20 are already bought.

 

there are only 8 motherships left, the number in stock has been reduced from 50 to 10!

 

oops, my misunderstanding on how many there were to begin with. Only, 8 left...well my chances of getting on that this rate are slim to none.

 

@ Reacker

I actually wish he would have reduced it more because that is still alot concerning the price. Also why are you worried after i bought the first Mothership it took awhile for anyone to buy another and i would wager no one is going to start buying for collection until the number is under 5 just because of how long it would take anyone to get the minerals to buy 1 and there arnt that many posters with that kinda minerals on hand.

 

How did you afford one? With only 500 posts too.

 

well i think 10 is a good number, it's much better than 50

 

we are talking about the mothership here

 

I don't need more probes. I have two already.

 

this whole buyin the remainder of a shop item...

its not disallowed.

its all fair play.

but its cheap.

this isnt some wholesaler store designed to distribute to retailers for public sale, it was public sale in the first place.

i'm very grateful cheap play doesnt exist within my ring of mates. anyone who acted like this round my mates would be thrown out the door till they leart some honor.

the store is there for people to buy and sell sure.

buyin those kinds of amounts to the very last item though, is low, and disrespectful to the broader community.

this is of course just my opinion, and i wont hold my opinion against anyone.

but i wanted to voice it.

 

you're a communist headstock?

 

No he's jsut saying it's selfish and users with less minerals don't get a fair go, old posters with a shtload of pets don't really need them they just want to prevent other from getting them and then re-selling them for 250% of their original price. And headstock i think respect is a better word to use than honor in the day and age.

i agree with headstock 100% on this. Although i was planning to buy myself 5 probes, i don't think it's that selfish.

 

haha yeah honor isnt the best word, i come from a rather different background to this internet style community... haha honor was a word that held pretty strong on the tounge a while ago.

see youre saying you wanted 5 probes for yourself, an amount like that seems reasonable, thats an amount that is realistically capable of being resold. The trade centre is designed so people can sell old items they no longer want, or, try to make profit.

Fair enough, thats a great aspect of this community.

But yes, respect is a better word.

Buyin 50, to the very last one, is abusing the good nature of these forums. It robs more recent users of a chance to buy items and pets, as the cheap ones such as the probe is bought out, and the more expensive ones are out of reach.

That takes away a huge incentive to post, and in turn damages the growth of these forums.

This isnt a small deal.

I think this needs to be addressed.

Again, just my opinion. though im glad someone agrees with me. Cheers Daseti.

 

Mass pet buying/reselling would play a major part in Curb Inflation Topic so yeah, maybe we should adress this to the forum admin? maybe like a limit of 10 pets of a certain type per person.

Edit: Only problem is most of the users will be against this.

 

maybe we should have a unlimited stock of pets and only a limited stock of collectibles

 

That will be implemented on the 2nd edition pets.
