kill stallers!!!

Post by Nukerus »

I hate that stallers;they stall for whole days and i thik because of them its inposible to come in SRO.

I think it would be better if u doesnt move for 30min it would kick u from the server. U could get in SRO easly.

its partly that but whats more of a problem are gold farmers, and, well, botters taking up server space.

I would also like a rule that you get kicked when you don't move for a certain time.

I dunno, I do like the idea of having an auction house where people pay some amount to put their item in, then they choose the price to sell for, then they log off. It could also make it much easier to find items you want because it could sort things by level, type, etc.

Well that would seriously effect the economy of the game. You'll have buyers go in, enter stats for an item they want to buy, sort by price, and buy the (almost) cheapest item in the list. This way, everyone would have to sell their items at lower and lower prices otherwise they won't sell.

Stallers do take up some space on the server, but they don't generate nearly as much traffic as characters that are actually running around grinding or questing or whatnot, whether they are botters or legit players.

I'm not an hundred percent on the bandwagon of an auction house. As for the comments above. An auction house would not effect the economy of the game if a person makes a choice to buy an lower priced item, that is what we call deflation. In game as well as real life you have inflation and deflation. You can't tell me if you saw an 2 items both with same stats on them you would buy the higher price one over the lower price because you are worried about the economy. Answer to that is no, you would be the first to grab the lower price one just like anyone else.

Stallers contribute more to traffic than you give credit for my friend. You have players that have multiple pc's that set up stall with noob character and log onto the main on the other pc and play. The server doesn't account for dozens of players doing that. If it did you wouldn't have the lag you do when you are in town.

I think the auction house idea would conterbalance the effect of gold buyers and stuff. Everything is so damn expensive, and the prices keep rising. Auction house would rock ;/

Auction house would be nice, and easier just to search for an item instead of wasting globals and time looking for the item.

lol @ the thought of kicking players who idle for 30 minutes

y lets do that and give goldfarmers and people that spend real money a even bigger advantage.

(the auction house is a real good plan dough, people generally dont know what to ask for a item, hence the over-pricing)

Taking away stallers is the most unresonable idea ever!
Problems with killing stallers
-No more deals to find
-If you need a specific gear it will take you 10x longer to find it if stallers can only be on for 30mins to 1 hour or whatever it is
-Last but NOT least You don't need to kill stallers because we already get DISC everynight after selling 1-2 items with the ???? and C++ ERROR :x

Problems with auction house
-Harder to find good deals
-Harder to price things since now everyone compares driving prices down lower instead of boosting economy


Keep it the way it is, if you are bothered about not getting in the game, blame the botters. Stallers don't make that much of the difference compare to the botters/goldfarmers [/b]

I'm not too fond of the auction house idea. But I do think there should be a time limit on stalling. The max time for a stall should be only a few hours.

There also needs to be a limit on how many hours you can play a day. If they impose such a limit that means botters aren't able to grind 24/7 and more people can get a chance to play.

And it's ridiculous how there are some people that can stay dead and logged on for days. I come back and they're still there!

i think people who stand still for more then 5 hours should be kicked.

30 min is too fast, becuase what if you run out to buy milk, just for 30 min, then find out ur logged out and cant get back in for a while?

should be 5 hours max. then kick.

and 30min is to short for stalling. people need time to sell items in stall. cant sell them in 10 min or less.

5 hours should be plenty. then make another stall again.

good idea but i reacon they should have a random set of time limits that apear completetly randomly, I Agree an hour min afk is totally fair, But 5 hours.. a staller just come back to his pc for 30 seconds sit up, sit down and then there goes another 5 hours... A random amount would be good, the first afk you get kicked after 2:32:12 (h/m/s) the next time could be 3:12:09 and so on....

LOL ^^^^^^ You need to copy and paste that!

Its not going to happen, this is how your know if something is going to happen. If you can ask a person on KSRO. (We have players on here that do play KSRO) If it happens on there then it will happen here. Othere then that time to find a new game.

I thought about coming up with ideals. Screw it, does it really matter that much? Are they going to listen to what I have to say? No. So screw it. Enjoy the game as it is or stop playing.

What's sad is that many people, newbies mainly, don't know how to use a stall. They put on display things like 1 broken scyte and price it at 300k. Or they sell return scrolls for 20k each.. Those stalls are a waiste of space, please display things that actually make sense.

There was this guy on my server that was online for atleast 48 hours, seling at his "All must go!" stall a rank 1 stone and some overpriced potions (or something similar).

So, a piece of advice: if you have nothing interesting, don't open a stall. Also, unless it's a SOX or +X weapon (x>2) don't spend 2 days at the stall. In this time you can make a lot more money

Stalling is essential for the game. I don't like to wear NPC items, do you?
And the stallers don't make that much traffic.

Guys there are all easy fixes to all of our problems. But they all cost money. The lack of GM support , hell any kind of support shows what level they are willing to go.

Just get used to it and hope they fix this at one point. If you can't wait or deal with this, move on to the next game.

Used to be you could crash a stall if you Punched a bandit Den Return scroll, but this doesn't work any more. How do you crash a stall now?
