All these damn con artists!!

[Mindspank]

I knew this was going to happen. See my reply in the maintenance thread. I just freggin knew it.

What am I talking about?

The prices of the christmas pets. People feel that because the pets are +5 now they can charge 2g+ per pet. What they are not telling people, or what people are not reading in the patch notes, is that IT'S ONLY TEMPORARY!!

After the next maintenance, THEY WILL GO BACK TO +2!!!!

I have tried, pleaded with people, in elderine not to waste money on this. And the vendors call me a liar. The vendors basicly flame me in shout, and the people believe THEM!!! I tell them to check the forums, I tell them to read the patch notes, they wont listen to me.

Am I the only one that gives a damn that these people are straight SCAMMING players?! It's bad enough that all the high leveled guilds straight up farmed the CRAP out of FBZ2 for 48 hours for these pets. They farmed for them so badly that Outspark put a level limit on the FBZ's for the event for christs sake! And why did they do it?

So they could fill their vendor windows up with pets and control the market, charging whatever they want. Now this +3 stat boost is giving them the excuse to come out of hiding and charge people an INSANE ammount for something that is only temporary? How is this right?

It's bad enough that the high leveld guilds basicly DENIED lower leveled players the pleasure of finding a pet in a chest, but now they are ripping them off with this stat increase.

I am sorry, but if this is what our higher leveld playerbase is like, you all are fucking PATHETIC. And I am not just throwing everyone in that pot, because I do know AWESOME capped, well formerly capped, players. But the rest of these guys are a disgrace to the better natured players.

I HIGHLY encourage members of more influential guilds and higher leveled players, since apparantly to the denizens of Bijou I am a noob who knows nothing now, that you inform these players that the stat increase is only temporary before they waste their hard earned money.

And even if they know about it, and still decide to spend their money, at least they know BEFORE they buy it that it's only temporary. Instead of finding out a week later.

Seriously, the community needs to step up on this.
