Flight Rising Rant Thread

Boons are 90kt in the AH now. Ungened imps are like 75kt. My triple gened spiral/skydancer pair, which is the only pair I've been EXCITED to breed in a long time, gave me a single egg. I PMed a person about buying my dream dragon off them, told them there was no limit on the price I'd be willing to pay, and they haven't responded at all, even though they've been online and fed their dragons. I only got 20kt off my unhatched arcane egg. I can't decide if I want to give Conundrum the gembond I already have so I can have triple gened imps tomorrow or if it's just not worth it.

EDIT: Cheapest iri/shim dragons with either gembond or circuit are 300kt in the AH. Cheapest with iri/shim/underbelly ones are 150kt. I'm just going to give her gembond.

*grump*

No one likes my new dragon idea.

WELL FINE see if I devote five hours to drawing anything for you people again. >_<

edit: 'you people' = petopia forum crawlers

[Qinni]

Not to be mean to some people here but I'd rather throw myself under a bus before I spend 300+ treasure on a dragon. I would spend that much on the triple Ivory I've been wanting but not on some common ever day run of the mil colors.

*no I'm not really going to throw myself under a bus. I did burn my tongue on my coffee while looking in the sales forum today.*

[Nachtwulf]

If I ever even HAVE 300kT, I'm sure it will be spent on a lair expansion
because lair expansions are absurdly, ridicuously, unnecessarily expensive for what you get.

Hey guys, just a reminder that complaining about things on these forums, even if you don't name who it is, isn't really allowed. Just as a reminder:

The Rules of Rant Thread:

1. Don't argue. This is a thread for sharing frustrations, not for debate.
2. Don't derail. Offering your sympathy is great, and sometimes a quick suggestion can help a lot, but that's not the primary purpose of this thread.
3. Don't rant about people or situations on this forum. (If you need to do that, feel free to PM me. I can always listen to a good rant.)
4. Keep the descriptions of injuries and illnesses to a graphical minimum. Some of us are eating here!

I know our threads tend to not follow these rules as much, and we often debate about things, but I think the third rule is especially important. Ranting about each other, even if we don't mention who it was or the exact situation, only breeds hostility.

[Qinni]

I wasn't even talking about anyone here. I just wanted to say something about high price dragons on the ah and dragon forums on fr.

[Aeladrine]

It was a reminder meant for everyone, Qinni, not just you. It's simply something I've noticed a lot, especially lately, and I thought that we could all use a nice reminder of the rules.

[Qinni]

Okay. I just though I was being targeted because some people where selling there dragons for more lately here on petopia. I was more upset about finding an Imp I wanted for coffee breeding but it would cost me more then a lair expansion. :C

[Nick]

I really wish the price of scatterscrolls would come down off their high horses. They cost more than just buying entirely new dragons with better-suiting colors. :/

[Aeladrine]

Looking through imperials with a tertiary gene on the AH is kind of... painful. At least at the moment. Especially with underbelly.
It's like the world has forgotten how colour theory works.
(Of course, not all of them are bad. There are some very lovely ones, too! But a lot are painful.)

[Lupis]

Ooof, yeah, I've noticed that too Aela. Some really... interesting colors. >.>

Edit- I'm so done with FR tumblr, I can't... Ugh.

[Ana]

one week with no competition in dominance.. and another one comming up... ppl are selling pretties for sooo cheap ><

makes me really really sad to see cute dragons sell for pennies

cant save them all

[Vasken]

Edit- I'm so done with FR tumblr, I can't... Ugh.

Tumblr's FR community is-... I have no words.

Already blocked the tags 'FR', 'Flightrising' and 'Flight Rising'. Been working on unfollowing every FR-related blog, and will delete my own when I'm finished. COMPLETELY DONE. TOO MUCH STUPIDITY. MY WEEKLY QUOTA'S FILLED UP IN AN HOUR OF BROWSING THE TAG.

[Lupis]

As much as my FR tumblr has gotten me a good number of sales and such, I'm tempted to do the same, Vasken! I logged back on to my regular old blogging blog and the instant relief was amazing. No more incredibly stupid drama clogging up my dash? What's this? Amazing!

[Qinni]

I'll never understand tumblr

Rant: THE RENT IS SO DAMN HIGH! Aka lair space

[Meggers]

All three of my current nests are 2 eggers, and the imps I just hatched to make room was also a 2 egger.

Le sads.

[Ana]

im gonna sit on a developpers head til they make lair expansion 1 k and give us unlimited dragons

grrr i wanna buy dragons (when im done repaying my imp offc )

[Lupis]

ghasjkgh how hard is it to find a male WC/imp with reddish/brown for the primary/secondary and a greenish tert

Seriously, almost every imp on AH is blue or grey, blue or grey, so much blue and grey. x.x

I did find a few very nice coral/blood-ish/leaf dragons with the search. One of which was Vephriels, heh. But most had been exalted and it was a very sad day for me.

[Aeladrine]

I can't give you a greenish tert, but my friend and I breed imperials/wcs in the brown/red range. But their terts match, too.

[Ana]

sniff.. no love for my skydancers on the sales forum on fr....

had hope they would sell well.. but i guess ppl are out of money and room just like myself...

dear admin/dervs.. give us cheaper MUCH cheaper lair expantion!
