ATTN: Blue Players Searching Forums

[The Grey Witch]

Blue Players,

I get 5-10 PM's a day from you wanting to buy stuff. 25% of the time a second PM follows realising you are looking at a WTB/WTS Red List.

You can search solely the blue trading forums if you narrow the search criteria by forums. See "Search in Forums" on the below screenshot.

If you don't do that, take a look at the right side of your search results.
See "Forums" on the below screenshot. If it says PVP vs EC tunnel, you might want to consider it invalid results for your search.

Thanks - stop being lazy/dumb.

You're playing on red so I would assume you have the free time to deal with WTB/WTS issues since you only have to worry about the 1 other red player buying something once a year.

Hey there! I don't really think it's a matter of people being "lazy or dumb." Rather, when a vast majority of postings are blue-related-- I don't know, 95%+?-- this is simply an easy thing to miss / misconstrue.

Players aren't trying to waste your time! That said, anyone selling on red is probably going to have to deal with this. Asking the 95% of players to change their search habits probably isn't going to happen realistically

This doesn't have anything to do with the thread, but did any1 ever notice the relation of Players per blue/red Server and rants&flame post per blue/red forum?

At this Moment, blue server has 800 ppl playing, red server has 30 ppl playing.
So roughly 25x more Player on blue.
However: blue rants/flame forum has 440k Posts, red rants/flame forum has 280k posts, so the factor is only About 1.5 here.

Aren't red players always claiming how easily you can solve problems in game on red? apparently not.

I think another factor in that is that Red players like to hang around the forums and trash talk each other long after they stop playing the game. Plenty of Blue players do this in RnF too, but I just think the Red forum community is "stickier" (relative to their actual server) in this regard.

Red players have 25x more mental illness than blue players, which is saying a lot.

Good luck with the increase in messages from blue players.

isnt making other red players mad the point of playing on red?

Wouldn't happen on red; disputes are handled by pvp.
