I thought the same thing - then I visited their profile and it formed my rant of the day: don't use debilitating conditions as an excuse for behaving like an ass-twat and justifying your inability to deal with people being mad about said ass-twat behaviour It isn't fair on others and it isn't fair or helpful to yourself. Grrrrr some people

At the time I thought she was very unique color wise (compared to other options). Now, after breeding her once and getting nothing but bright pastel Friday 13th horror hatchlings... I'm just utterly lost as to what combination would breed well with her??? I've spent hours pouring over foresee progeny previews. I just... I'm at an absolute loss as to what to do. I've pondered changing at least her tert to crackle or circuit? But would it help? Argh. I just don't know. *facedesk*

(If anyone has any ideas for suitable mates, I'm open to suggestions! Feel free to reply by PM here or mail me on FR! I'd love some feedback/ideas (cause I'm all out of them)! *Drags self to bed*)

3 suggestions send.. if you need more let me know

I myself have extreme social anxiety and find it hard to talk to people even online, I'd NEVER be an asshole and then use it as an excuse.. Wtf? They are just making other people with similar conditions look bad ;/ Not to mention how bad they are making themself look.

I find sniping dragons/items mean spirited personally.

Especially if they make no effort whatsoever to see if it was a mistake, and just resell or exalt immediately.

Now I've calmed down some I don't mind what the feck people do with their FR time ^_^ But the 'don't call me out cos I have issues, you deal with it' attitude really got to me. My brother has severe social anxiety issues as well as severe learning disabilities - but he would never use it as an excuse to his actions or behaviour - especially if its something that hurts or impedes on some else's fun! All they had to say was 'I have anxiety issues, please be gentle with me' - I would totally be cool with them flipping dragons or whatever then. But it's their damn outright 'Haha I'm flipping yo dragons don't expect an answer cos I have problems' Makes me wanna scream - no wonder you don't wanna talk to folk!!! And breathe.

The FR community has made me really cranky lately - it's not the happy, glitter filled place I thought it was

... actually, the fellow you ranted about was one of the ones who I ran into. They apparently bought one of the dragons I put up for the wrong price and within moments, flipped it.

Why would you put a giant banner about I AM A DRAGON FLIPPER and then ask people not to be mean to you because you have a condition? But yeah, it was surprising how fast they got to it.

I dunno, I guess some people like playing with the economy/AH flipping but. :/ Oh well. I'm gonna go admire something cute.

As far as I can tell, Morris is the only person that operates like this. Like I said, the speed with which they snaffle up dragons is suspicious to me, nevermind their obnoxious attitude. The attitude just makes it -worse-. If I were to report them (and I urge others to do so too) I'm... not entirely sure how to do that. I've sent other things to their 'contact us' and never gotten any non-automated response, including asking them to change an offensive exalted hatchling name (which they haven't done).

I should imagine they will investigate anything suspicious like this - look what they've done to poor Max If they don't it's a huge injustice - heck, to me, this behaviour is far worse for the economy and community than multiple accounts! Out of all the accounts out there - the 1000's of them - I'm guessing that the majority are reported by suspicious players, else just how do they catch people?


My rant for the day: listing babies I bred for my dad on the AH and making him buy them from there so not to get accused of multiple accounting Happy birthday dad

Buy a dragon for 100 gems.. deside meh he is not worth it... even with the close range secondary and tertiary...

but nooooooo then my brain desides that it likes the dragon.. starts to see which kinda of apparel and genes he need to be perfect...

end up spending close to 300k regening him...

Bravo brain....

^^^THIS!
I feel your pain. I often have the same problem... And impulse buys. I'm SO guilty of this. Predict morphology gets me in tons of trouble too. As does browsing other people's lairs. I keep finding combinations I love and just HAVE to have (which usually results in me having to buy the dragon with the right colors and then dropping a ton of treasure/gems on re-doing the genes until it's perfect). *flop*

Hahahaha, yyyeah, the "spending tons of treasure on dragons that shouldn't be worth it" thing...

A friend of mine saw a post I'd put on tumblr about how blood/carmine/coral is pretty with the right genes. ...So they sent me their blood/carmine/coral dragon. Who has all the wrong genes and will cost about 400k to fix.

So of course I accepted it.

Then I found a snapper who's blood/crimson/red, another combo I really wanted. ...So I bought that. And it'll cost me about 200k in genes.

Keep in mind, these are PLENTIFULS. Not even doubles or hideously rare colors. Just some tundras that I thought would be pretty.

Well, I filed a report about Morris.

I expect as much will be done about them as was done about the hatchling I reported for renaming (RichardNixon? Really?)

i.e. ... Nothing.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I don't blame them for not changing that. The name is not offensive political views aside.

OMG I'm so mad I need 83 more gems and the person selling them wasn't keeping track of how many they had. Nobody else selling is online and I just need 83 to afford my Gembond scroll! /sad

I've got plenty, Glain! I'd be happy to help if you still need them! Let me know!

Unfortunately it's not possible to buy lair space, but I really wish they'd make that possible. Heck, they'd earn money on it. And people would buy more dragons and genes and the treasure would still go down a drain.

So I set out to buy a triple pink imperial pair, and as I had them bookmarked I only had to see which ones were unrelated. And that I found, so I purchased them. When I went to name them, I noticed the males colour was darker, and then I realized I had bookmarked a magenta imp too. So off I went again to find a male pink and a female magenta. Found both. Guess I can cross two more colours off my list, though now I am broke, and have no space for my nests that are hatching tomorrow xD

So right now I need gembond and underbelly... Bleh. Why do they have to be so expensive

Halp I keep buying dragons ohgod
