Swtor players make worse undercuts on GTN than wow players on AH

If crafting is fun for you, you need to get out more.

this post is so awkward

we list items at the prices we want. if we want to sell quickly then we give up value to sell it. get over it. this isnt a business, this is a video game.

oh and in real life, id tell you to get over it too.

This is not a game mechanics issue that BWEA needs to address. It's an issue of player behavior totally within the context of legitimate game play.

If you want to spit into the wind, go ahead.

I list extremely low because credits are only useful for buying skills as you level up and for repairs when you die. Outside of that, they are 100% worthless. You get enough credits running your daily flashpoint to cover repair costs. So I put cheap items up on the GTN so other people that feel they need that item can get it at a cheap price. I don't care if people are playing the GTN game and rebuy it to sell for higher prices. No sweat off my balls and if they get some sort of pleasure from having all of the credits, more power to them.

when did I EVER say that it was a game mechanic that bioware has to fix? they can no more fix this then they can fix players choosing to wear light willpower armor as juggs/ guardians. which within context of the game is a legitimate choice (read not against TOS). doesn't make it a good choice though.

see the thing is... some people do what they do deliberately. and some people don't realize what they are doing. you don't know which one is which until you interact with them. silence however, gets you nowhere fast with either category, instead of just one of them.

now.. what bioware CAN fix is how GTN functions work in general. like being able to search by lowest per item price, instead of scrolling through 10-15 pages, mousing over each individual item. or ability to copy/paste a name of the item into search window instead of having to type it manually. or ability to specify size of the stack you want to sell instead of having to split it manually in your inventory before making listings. they don't have to, it's just minor quality of life improvements that they could consider working on.

meantime... yes. there are workarounds people being, well people. doesn't mean I have to be happy about using them, or not point out actions of others that create the need for those workarounds in a first place. is all.

And why do you care?


You don't want to encourage them to enable you to make money?


You can't control what others do. It's Monopoly money so either wait 'til theirs sells or buy and re-sell theirs yourself. Either way, who really cares?

When you see 90% of the GTN prices under break even point level you facepalm and move on.

I care because it makes the market aspect of the game pointless. I was enjoying it, and then a bunch of people who don't know how to play came to ruin it. I have the strong feeling they did it, because it's fun for them to ruin things for others...not because it's clever, that's just how they get their jollies. I took some time to think strategy, and I've come up with something that works for me, and these shtheads who do this crap just because they can, don't affect what I do anymore.

If you care so little, why did you answer my post? lol
