The guys is just 9 day old newbie. As Auggie said, you could've atleast explained him that you are paying in the form of xanax and meds instead of blocking him which makes you look bad.

Have you ever bought Losses? I have just spent the last 3 weeks buying 4,500 of them.

Believe me when I say there is never enough time to explain to newbies how to do this. I blocked multiple people when buying mine because I really cba to spend the time teaching them when there is the next person who knows what he is doing. I would imagine it is exactly the same for Tirth.

Er no, when you're saying you're paying them and giving meds and xanax on top then covering their expenses doesn't count as paying them when there are still parts left unpaid (i.e. the cash)



It's a different story if he legitimately only did 3 attacks, but are you saying you only counted 3 attacks of 7 because you had sent him other supplies? This didn't seem to be talked about as a condition...?
WizardRubic [1615031]

I kinda agree with Bogie.

Even if you sent over 230k worth of items per attack + 7 sfak, it's not quite the same as 230k in cash since the other dude now has to liquidate the items.

Exactly this, I recently bought over 7k losses and it was the most painful experience of my life! You literally have to teach some of these players as you go and some just don't listen, once I hit the 10k defends I mailed each and every one of them to let them know I'm no longer buying losses and they still kept coming, so frustrating

and then there were the blatant 0 day multis who would appear and do 48 attacks all within minutes of each other leaving you with the dilemma, pay them and then report or don't pay and report

im just relieved I came out of the experience without turning into a RL alcoholic

I just changed my profile picture as you can see :)

I see that as fair warning - anyone who attacked me after I changed my profile didn't get paid - it's been made clear as day - had a couple of complaints but oh well.

It goes both ways I guess when buying and selling losses in the trade chat. If you want to weed out the worst sellers or buyers it's probably better to use the forums.
Auggie [924001]

lol I can see where you guys are coming from. Recently dealt with a multi farmer myself, and yea some guys don't listen at all XD

Think here a simple "hey I'm paying you in meds, is that okay?" would have sufficed



Don't think Tirth would be scamming over something like this, and doesn't really sound like he was from the convo. Just poor communication on the internet... which never happens right? lol
Louis_de_Pointe [1963196]

I never had these problems when selling losses, it was simple 300k a loss no meds, no xanax just attack Sharkeyfive and send him the bill and if i made a mistake like billing for 10 when i did 12 he would always doublecheck and pay me the right amount. I know in business I can trust him.

When I see threads like this I do think "there is a right way to deal with this as a new player...but would I have done?"


Kash [464458]

I haven't bought any losses but I can imagine how difficult it must be dealing with several noobs all at once XD.

Tirth: Payment asap on seeing events



If that transcript is accurate, you appear to say you'll pay for the events after you've already sent him the goods. I'd read that as payment is still outstanding.

Just my unwanted and irrelevant viewpoint. [:laughing:]

this is what i was thinking



"Oh this guy is partially to completely braindead, i'll cut my losses and move on to the other sea of people willing to attack for money"
