its almost impossible to trade because the ratio of theives to hunters/traders is about 20:1 at least in sparta

Try making a new guild/uni; traders/hunters only
On Eldorado, jobbing is dying out cuz of non-job buffing T_T; especially guild DeathLike is good with that, nabs
And yeah, thieving is way easier then hunting/trading

seriously? You must be in Latin Force or Sultans and are still crying because 6 thiefs will take your trade even though you use 20 hunter and outside rezzers. Maybe if you weren't such babies and actually tried instead of just multiclienting rezzers you would be successfull on a trade

When Job change first came out, a lot of people were Hunter! By a lot of people, I mean most. Then there became a few traders. Once the Hunter / Trader population started becoming quite large, people though. Hmm.. I'll switch to thief and then be able to kill all these hunters and trades. Little did they know, by doing so the Thief population surpassed that of the Hunter and Trader population and the game, yet again, became imbalanced.

just typical that thiefs are more organized so these hunters cry... u really think there are more hunters then thiefs? look at weekly contributions and see who has more. Oh, I forgot the sparts norm now is also as soon as they see a thief, panic sets in and the disconnect button gets hit...

Everything you read there is true and factual. There were no other outstanding factors.

because of selfish behavior from people like you this game is dying and yes there are more "active" theives than hunters by a ratio of at the very least 5:1

If its so boring then why do you theif? Is it because you just want to piss someone off who is trying to enjoy the game?

i ask ratthief why he does what he does, he says he enjoys the game for one reason, ruining a traders night.... I will get to lvl 90 one day and be a machine like him, and you will be posting here again crying and complaing your character is too weak to defend your trade, outside rezzzer and all

I guess the hunters could do with a bit more organising in general... it's the same on Olympus from what I see.
Thiefs are usually in strong parties of 5 or more, whereas hunters still go on lone hikes to kill them a thief. They run into the thief party and get killed, again and again and again and again.
That being said... the vast majority of 'good' players (by that I mean either good by knowing how to play their char or by the ammount of sun they have) do seem to stick to the thief side of things.
I guess it just has a certain appeal to them...

Why are you bashing on thieves disconnected? It's their choice to be a thief, no triangular conflict without them (although it would make trading alot easier kekeke)

in athens there are more hunters than thieves. the funny thing is, whenever my union is thieving and we find some traders, they almost always dc the trade

, then they log-in another trader they dc'ed earlier lol. mind you, theres like 20+ hunters, and only 10+ thieves, they still dc the trade. and we're talking about full sun hunters here.

Crust, your thoughts on dc are obviously flawed because he is a part of a well respected English speaking guild and not one of those mist cowards. On top of that in his initial post he is in no wa bashing theives. Furthermore your immature anger is an obvious sign to me that you are in no way better than these hunters you speak of...

I love thieving. It's so much fun killing a trader and hunter then running off with the loot hoping some high lvl won't come along and pwn you. Gawd it's so much fun. + Chinese thief suits are facking smexy.
