Excessive bumping @multiple threads

Wouldn't an easy solution to this be just to create one thread that you updated which RSPS's you deal with in that thread directly? This would both make it easier for you and other sellers to keep everything up to date, and would stop post-count inflation and flooding of the forums.


Why don't you try modifying 8-15 markets and stay up to date on every single one every single day?

While ur at it, make sure u can track bans, anti bans, profits,losses, sellers,buyers and everything else.

Most people deal with 2 markets, rs3 and 07, I deal with 8-15 at any given point just in RSPS alone.


That's easy to say, a lot harder to do lmao, that's why so many of my threads are generally vague.

I left one market today and enter'd another(us4), I spent over 30 minutes modifying threads and removing golds and updating sellers/buyers/stock for us leaving one and entering another, what do u propose I do? Spend 6 hours a day updating the stocks, prices and everything else?

I wish this would only be targeted to people in the actual RSPS market, nobody else understands properly.

What your basically proposing is a fine solution for say, an individual seller in 1 or 2 RSPS, it doesn't work so well when u look at 8-10-12-14-16 diff ones, then add in workers, calculations,stocks,bans,anti bans, wipes, staff, pricing, etc, its a diff story, doing this change would effectively cost me hours upon hours a day, because by having 1 thread, If a price is outdated, I effectively lose that Rsps's traffic completely.

TRY TO UNDERSTAND: RSPS PRICES CHANGE EVERY SINGLE DAY BASED ON A TON OF FACTORS, EVERYBODY IS CONSIDERING THEM TO OTHER MARKETS AND YOU CANT, GOLD IS NEVER SET, EVER, SOME GOLDS FLUX 0.05-$1 EVERY SINGLE DAY!


Also: what is this 2010 cmon flying, who cares about post count ?

Haha, we both know post count doesn't really mean anything (you get pretty sick UT's from it though if you haven't donated lol.), but Ryan pretty much said exactly what I was thinking.

What do any of these factors have to do with which thread you post on? Your input won't change at all if the only change is that you're just going to click the edit button on one/a few thread(s) instead of 30...

The idea is that instead of having 6-8 threads that are EXACTLY the same, minus the "buying" and "selling" prices, that you just have one thread in which you list the markets your in. From there, you can direct the users to your site for to buy gold and check prices (which you already do).

There is no need to take up half of the front page to do what one thread could. Even more so when they're all pretty much the same exact thing.

I agree. In account sales, you're limited to one thread regardless of how many accounts you're selling. I think the gold threads should be treated the same.

 

Typically, when sites are selling multiple accounts they list them all on the thread and tell the user to visit their site, I don't see why RSPS's should be handled any differently.

Incidentally, the argument is that it's harder to attract customers by not having separate threads for different private servers, but in doing so, they're making it harder for others who aren't selling in large variety. This argument is used for account selling threads, thus the ruling in limiting multiple threads.

However anyone wants to word it, it's the exact same argument used to repudiate multiple account selling threads. Either you allow both or don't.

Like I've said before, just wait for the staff discussion to come out, I cba arguing it anymore.


"the accounts section is like this so magically the rsps section must be the same to keep it fair, even though theres 2 entire RS account industrys with 4 subsections each, man lets just give 10-15 rsps 1 section total and 1 thread that seems to be very equal".

I cant even anymore, I wish they'd just lock this until the discussion was done .

The reason the account rule is there kiro, is because RS accounts now have 4 subsections each, which isn't practical for Rsps ._., hence the no multiple thread rule.

They basically have the ability to have multiple threads, just they need to break them into diff subsections.

If you don't want to argue, then stop responding. You're not a spokesperson for the rsps market.

It's not magic, and the two are relative, two halves of the same coin, otherwise the argument wouldn't be the same for both allowing and opposing it.

With this being the case, it makes all the more sense to impede multiple threads being created in a forum with no subdivisions. I don't get how you think this logic supports your argument.

"We only have 1 forum to share, so allow us to produce more threads"

You should be doing the opposite.

I cant even anymore, I wish they'd just lock this until the discussion was done .

Are you being injured or something? Stop being so dramatic, you aren't being forced to respond to anything.

Again, that logically doesn't make sense.

"We have a large village, so there must be less occupants"

"We have a small village, so there must be more occupants"

They basically have the ability to have multiple threads, just they need to break them into diff subsections.

If I'm selling multiple max mains, there is no breaking down of anything. The sections are to divide the levels of the accounts in order to prevent clutter and promote ease of access.

And the sections cant be broken down by subsections so I'd love to hear a diff solution instead of crippling the threads or making 15 diff subsections for RSPS.


Open to ideas, the 1 thread is a bad one.


I'd rather see 15 subsections then 1 thread though tbh, that idea is horrid.


I don't agree that the subsections are the solution, nor are they practical, but their a lot better than the other idea lol.

The best solution, and practically the only solution is to have 1 thread per person, as is in other forums.

It seems like you have trouble understanding why there are subdivisions for the account selling forum. I'll reiterate.

The sections are to divide the levels of the accounts in order to prevent clutter and promote ease of access.

There shouldn't be and is no discussion of making sub sections for the rsps market because it wouldn't make sense.

Also: Saying we have threads there for no reason is stupid, I can prove every stock for every RSPS I advertise..

You're missing the point completely - the rule is standardized across all subforums. If I have a bunch of names, I open a name selling shop rather than listing out all the names individually. Account sales have already been mentioned. Why should RSPS gold sales be any different?

If you're looking to buy/sell gold for a specific private server, it is a lot easier to just find the server you're looking for in the title of the thread than browsing every single person's "generic rsps shop thread" and see if they even offer the server you're looking for

How about instead of "generic rsps shop thread", they title it "rsps1, rsps2, and rsps3 gold selling/buying thread"?

I couldn't even fit half my rsps in 1 thread title, let alone them all.

Just saying.

Plans are in motion to create subsections for rspspk, runique, and os-scape. This should ease a lot of the congestion in the sole rsps section that currently exists. There will be a catch-all section for the remaining rsps's but between that section and the new subsections, the traffic in each subsection should be quite manageable and no one should feel "pushed out"

I feel this is a acceptable decision by staff and have no issues with it , Glad the staff team reached a conclusion that supports both sides !

There wasn't a need for more subsections, but sure. Spam-count auto bumpers will be happy they can still spam 150pc/day and casual sellers can sell their gold without being bashed by wannabe gold sellers.

I just want to post an example of bus's thread -
http://prntscr.com/algw3v

It took him 30mins to copy and paste a thread cool

I left one market today and enter'd another(us4), I spent over 30 minutes modifying threads

 

[Superfluous]

pretty sure you get only 1 thread in the catch-all section. dont see why duplicates should be allowed

 

[Pain]

I was told by multiple staff that its specifically meant to be a catch all section for everything else, not just one thread.


If its a limit then I have an issue with it again lol >.>, everybody I've talked to (to my knowledge) was under the impression the catch all was meant to allow multiple threads, I know at least 2 staff were and I'm thinking 3.

Also another fucking problem, Rspspk is collapsing at an excessively fast rate, its market is down nearly 40% in 2 weeks, its playerbase is also tanking due to this goddam dupe and all the wipes.

That subsection might be being changed REAL soon, if its trend continues it wont last another 30-60 days.


Os-scape is up and runique is stable.

 

This is annoying. I'm selling on two servers atm, but I was selling on 5 every time I want to start selling on another once again I will need to wait for my thread title to be changed.

We often run out of stock on multiple servers, so I avoid bumping certain threads if I do not have the stock.

In a thread saying "rs crown selling/buying rspspk, os-scape, runique, nr,ikov2"

I may only have rspspk, os-scape and runique. I will have to re-arrange my threads layout possibly multiple times a day as well as the thread title itself.

I really disagree with this change and I only have two threads I am selling on currently.

terrible excuse, why exactly would you not need to bump your threads(or change the title) when you dont have stock? Do you not buy stock from other suppliers?

 

[Hai I bub]

Just have first thing on thread a list of servers and stock beside it and keep it updated lol.
