Goldenjkered Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I've been using the runescape forums for a while now, as it is a excellent place to get good prices for things and merchant. But it seems some people are either blind or can't read. For instance, I was selling 28k raw lobs on there for 220 ea this morning, and to my surprise about 10 people asked to buy some within 5 minutes of me posting the topic. So I sold them all (even getting I higher price for them, than I asked for. So then immediatly I edited my post to say ALL SOLD, but hours later around 5 different people pmed me asking me if they could buy some, and when clearly I had put that I had sold all of them. Now, if people on the forums took there time and actually read the topic then I wouldn't have to keep pm'ing them stating the obvious. So, to conclude, how do you feel about the runescape forums?

Freesia Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 That was some bad experience you had. I usually only do trading in rsof and such misunderstanding of your post is quite rare to me. Maybe your post is just confusing? Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

eyehawk78 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I hate the official forums. I only use them for trading. They seem to be full of 12 years olds who speak in leet and seem to have the attitude "Z0mg 1 g0t 1 h1tt3d by 50m30n3 1n teh w1ld wh0 wa5 b3tt3r than me, 1'm g0nna hackz0r Jag3x c0z 1 l05t my full st33l!!!!"

lewagold2 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 To Eyehawk: Wow. Period. I wish i could speak Noob with that perfect accent. But anyway, I have a Love/Hate relationship with the forums. They are the fastest way to find seller buyers, but otherwise, they are EVIL. ^Clicky for Q Cape Blog^MY SIGGIE AND BANNER SHOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12pure34 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 A few things people do not look for: -The time of the topic, to see if the post is not out-dated. -Wether or not something has been sold/changed in the posts following the first post. -World/spot if said so -Often, the price -The amount sometimes.. No, people are not really looking carefully. But I myself have made some errors from time to time to. :-w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infernalz Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 people just see that you are selling the 28k lobs on your topic, they dont look to see if you sold em all or not. especially with that many lobs they think that you havent sold em all, because it was new and not on page 50. yes people dont read the post you made alot... but if your selling a ton of lobs like that, people will think its new and try to be the first one to buy em while everyone else is reading your post, and if that happends, you can ask for a higher price since they dont know whet you were asking for each :wink: \ ^Click for my Newgrounds page!
