Thank you so much for listening to my suggestion and implementing it again. I've been spending lots of sP on things that I've been finding through this system and now with the 15% NPC shop reductions buffer I buy from them if the price is lower than in user shops. Thus, sweeping out some of the sP from the site. I believe it's mission accomplished. ;)
But... I ALWAYS haggled. It's what I did on this site XD
It's a huge change to try and readjust to the thing I spent the last years doing on this site. And it saved so very much in the long run. Even having some of the items earlier without the captcha was just.... bizzare to me. totally kills the feel of the place personally, and this new layout with all these changes is really white and really ... not subeta.
It's maybe not bad, and it's maybe 'easier' but it's not... Subeta. It's sad to feel like I'm watching the site grow into a totally new stranger when I came on this site FOR this site. Not for some trendy new clone you know?
Not trying to complain just trying to bring up some detailed facts. Just because people don't use a feature doesn't mean it has NO value. And the delay of super fast users meant because I could type faster than I could click sometimes I had a shot at typing just that bit faster than however many other users were typing who were also gunning for the same item.
It just feels so... unnecessary. Like we have all these changes and we have no CHOICE but to accept them since what say do we have in all this you know? The people in charge will alter things the way they think will make money and make the site more popular but when you take away the core of the nostalgia of a site - well
I return to sites because they feel like a homey place especially after playing them for years.
The more changes especially after a bit of a hiatus the more unwelcoming it ends up overall. Not better, just.... like someone is telling me to accept some 'better new and improved' robot clone instead of my best friend neighbor after being on vacation for a while.
I don't want what someone things is 'better for me' I want my old friend back!!!!!
*edit - also important question about this new rs bonus? Does it stack? Because I just got a 15% off thing but it's actually LESS than my normal 20% card, so am I losing sp or are they combining? Because I'd rather just wait and not rs at all if I'm losing 5% of what I could have (and that's even more with the loss of haggling things down yet a bit more)
Just wanted to check on how that works. also I am going to forever miss the haggling and captcha odd as it sounds: It was actually incredibly soothing, and somewhat zen to just sit and captcha things in and I feel like I have lost the main thing I do on this site as a whole with it all. I came back after a few months of a hard time... to lose my stress relief and just wanted to ramble a bit in sadness so please don't mind me
