Don't buy CB for USD (in General)


Dark Dreky June 29 2007 5:27 PM EDT

I feel that this would help stop the NUB-multi sellout craze that has been destroying CB from the inside out. So, PLEASE... STOP BUYING CB for USD!!

More appropriately: Don't buy CB from SBW so he ends up buying more gear and he gets stuck here again.

lol @ Mem. silly SBW

Care to explain how it's destroying CB from the inside out? I mean multis are evil and rotten blah blah but that's a heck of a statement.

SBW June 29 2007 6:25 PM EDT

ahhh! mem is too smart! noOoooO!

It blows that people use CBD/USD selling and multi-ing in conjunction, but you just can't penalize the people doing legitimate trades by boycotting everybody...

I certainly want to be able to sell my things for real dollars if I ever need to. And I did. And I bought my CBD back later. And that's fine.

I can't agree with you, sorry.

I just bought some cash, am I also to blame for destroying CB?

Mem June 29 2007 6:44 PM EDT

Only if it was from SBW.

Yes!! Don't buy CBD from NUBs who are selling out for USD. No one buy it, it is.. <scroll up> destroying CB from the inside out.
Then I will step in and pick it up for a low low price. >:D

aye! I'm with O'o Rly!

SBW June 29 2007 8:24 PM EDT

i think buy CBD from more experienced people only... that way the rates for USD:CBD go back up (maybe to 10:1). we shall see

Dark Dreky June 30 2007 1:14 AM EDT

Yes. USD spenders are inherently evil, it's true! While I myself have sold CB for USD and purchased it myself... mmm. Either way, I feel that all players should be wary of purchasing CB off NUB's. I mean, isn't it obvious to anyone else?! You know a multi/USD making character when you see it... I can't be the only one.

Like someone mentioned earlier (sorry I forgot), buy it from more experienced players that you know. Discourage the NUB sellout... we need to retain players here!! That was my main point...

And yes, you are all evil. }:)

Not that my actions as of late require any explanation, but I am taking a break from CB and want to unload both the gear and cash I have so that it may be of use to the community. I have purchased way more cb2 and items with usd than I have ever made back. I remember buying cb2 for a 40 to 1 mil ratio, so stop the whining and let people play.

Dark Dreky June 30 2007 1:27 AM EDT

Wahh wahhhh! PLEASE stop buying CB$! Wahhh! (that's whining)

All I'm trying to say is that there has been a lot of players quitting lately. At the same time, I feel there has been an apparent increase in the number of multi's and the number of people creating NUB's for the sole purpose of making USD... and it is kind of sad. Well, it makes me sad anyways... I really hope I'm not alone... anyone?

I feel that by not buying CB$ off NUB's will force them to want to play their characters rather than run off and create another NUB from a different IP address.

Phrede June 30 2007 1:55 AM EDT

I agree - stop buying cb$ from people.

(anyone with cb$ for sale - PM me )

TH [money] June 30 2007 2:31 AM EDT

lol @ freed

"I feel there has been an apparent increase in the number of multi's"

What are you smoking? there used to be way more, there's barely any now.

AdminNightStrike June 30 2007 1:53 PM EDT

Well, there's fewer caught. It could be that they're getting smarter. Has anyone looking at a table of new players that sell out after 4 months and leave comapred to those who stick around, dropping all data points for new players that don't make it out of the starting gates?
