Flight Rising Rant Thread

[Nick]

not really a rant but

i call hax on these two being hatched by the same person like what the fuck -.-


(also who the fuck has 50k gems to just drop on a dragon like that?)

[Bowno]

That does seem awfully shady >>;

[Nick]

on the same day too, like hmmmMMMM im not so sure that's legit

[Krysteena]

Very nice tert colours too...I would say something was dodgy about it, but they've got quite a few GenOnes there. Unless they got super duper lucky, something does seem a little off with that too.

[Ana]

That does seams suspicious!

my rant..

Man piepant feel fast in price... yesterday there were tundras and guardians listed for 20k.. with a tert too

[Ashaine]

The good news: I managed to find a dream Gen One a week ago!!!

The bad news: The owner and I have been in negotiations price wise. Sadly I really hope I can afford it. I think the owner is planning on taking me for everything I have as so far every offer hasn't been enough.

I REALLY want this girl...... </3

Got her. Paid nearly my soul, but hey, she was an ultimate wishlist dragon. Now I just have to try and save back up to gene her someday. Ugh.

[Nick]

How much are they asking for, Ash??

[Nick]

Ugh I see an orange/black/white UB female dragon with Fire eyes on the AH which is exactly what I want... but she's Bar/Daub and I need her to be Piebald/Paint and I don't have the money to regene her :/

I bought her anyways, just in case, but ugh...

[Lupen202]

How do I spend so much treasure?

500k is gone and I seriously can't remember what I bought.

[Moonith]

Finding an interesting looking dragon you might want to buy for cheap on the AH. Click on it to open its profile to grab its number to make sure it's not related to your other dragon by some slim chance. Only to find a big statement on the profile basically saying if you buy it you cannot change its name, exalt it, or change the bio and have to return it for free back to the original owner if you ever don't want it. Umm like what? Are you serious? Heck no! Not agreeing to that and not getting involved in that potential future drama. I know I could technically just ignore and erase the profile and claim that I paid money and I can do what I want with it, but I just don't want to deal with the possible hassle. They aren't getting my money. Nope. I feel bad if someone just impulse buys a dragon like that and then realizes the profile afterwards. Sadly I've had this happen twice now in the past week when clicking on profiles of interesting dragons that I might want to buy. I hope this isn't becoming a thing.

What dragon were you looking at, must see this

What dragon were you looking at, must see this

Sadly I didn't write it down. I was basically just sorting the AH by closest to expiration time with a price limit of 25k treasure and working my way through the list just enjoying finding random adult dragons that look interesting but were misfit enough for my misfit skittles pair that I breed just mainly for the random surprises they produce and to level and exalt the little misfits for money. I wanted to switch the pair up a bit was all. It probably already expired by now though because I was only a few pages back when I found him. I immediately just face palmed and moved on like I did earlier this week when I found a similar one while doing the same kind of searching. It was a named adult male dragon. As those were the only ones I was clicking on mostly. You'd be surprised some of the random things I find in dragon profiles on the AH when looking at adults that have weird color and gene combos that are about to expire. Aside from the two I talked about in my rant I've seen a couple "DO NOT EXALT" and "PLEASE NAME ME IMMEDIATELY" statements in dragon bios too. Those two though don't surprise me as I see enough drama on tumblr half the time about exalting or not naming purchased dragons to know it's a thing.

The one time I'm completely and totally broke and in debt and FR FINALLY decides to raise the lair space. ARGH. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy and it's about damn time, but it couldn't have happened at a worst time for me financially.

EDIT: My wonderful hubby and a family member stepped in and helped me attain at least the next 5 spaces! I'm so happy I could cry right now. I was so tight on space that I was having to cull dragons I didn't want to cull. At least having a few extra spaces has made me so very happy. (Though the next 5 are going to be an absolute bear to save for. 1150000?!? Yikes.....)

[Arthur]

How much treasure do you need

edit: I told this person my light sprite is on hold for someone else so they make me an offer anyways. I'm sorry but ?? I'm selling it to the person it's held for. Unless they back out. I find it? Really rude to offer like that??

[Kirrandria]

I mean, I know the holiday literally JUST started, and I already had enough embers saved from two years ago to get me the apparel and familiar, but..

Am I the only one having horrible luck in Coli? Just yesterday I was farming Scorched Forest for Jackalopes and was encountering plenty of fire or neutral critters every other battle or so. I've fought maybe fifty waves of enemies already, and maybe fifteen of them have contained at least one fire or neutral enemy.

I've gotten one ember.

What the hell?

[Lisaara]

FR. I swear to god....is the most politically correct, SJW infested place I've ever seen.

Newsflash: Not every word is ableist!

[Falcon]

Of course the Simply a Flame accent for male Imperials doesn't drop in the Coli. I need one for both Scorpion and LiuKang, but my luck with the festival skins that sell in the market is downright horrible. >_<

Edit: One down, one to go! Thank you, Varethyn!

I knowww... I love the game, and the community is really sweet most of the time, but the tumblr crowd has really infested FR. Like with the whole Moon Moon thing... I understand it originally came about when the creator said he'd be the most "retarded wolf", but it's just some dumb internet meme about a wolf. The creator even apologized later on for using the word retarded.

Do people not realize there are far more important things to bitch about in this world? The Moon Moon meme isn't hurting anyone; if you get offended over an internet meme you're just being oversensitive.

[Krysteena]

I don't think people realise this, but Moon Moon came from this:

The creators initials happened to make "Moon Moon". There, problem solved. Maybe he worded it wrong initially, but now people are taking it too far.

Also, I do not understand people who wish to be referred to as, not a gender, but an animal. Dog/dogs/dogself. I don't wish do offend anyone, but I just really don't understand it. Is it. A furry thing, or perhaps a roleplay thing?

[Ashaine]

*Shudders* Ugh. Tumblr. Don't even get me started. Too many things too much of the time get blown way out of proportion and taken too far there. It's PC hell. Let's just say, I agree and leave it at that.

On another rant... I have to admit, I once looked at the Gen One collectors on FR, shook my head and said 'I just don't get it. I could never get obsessed over silly First Gens.' Now, I'm eating my own words as I relentlessly hunt for any obsidian/red-range Gen Ones that I can get my hands on. It's a horribly expensive habit and I have no idea what in the world started this craziness. I finally got off my 'I need to own every obs/crim/gold nocturne possible' and now I've picked up this even worse collecting habit. I think I'm going to need an intervention soon.

EDIT: As for the meme, I think whoever created it really needed to think of better 'names'. Mine would be White Red. Really?
