THE MARKET

Please don't put anything else on the market there is a bug which many of you know about and have experienced. So to cut down anymore angry users that have lost an item or money don't put anything else on there. I'll try to get an update on things but until then please be patient and bare with us.

Re: THE MARKET

I think these are the types of posts people would love to see more of Katrina.  An honest, it's not working I'll let you know when it is post.
I can't even tell you how many times I've thought about putting something up on the market, but because the bug status is a bit unclear I decided against it.
It's nice to see a straight forward DON'T DO IT, IT'S NOT WORKING post.

Thanks smile

Re: THE MARKET

Great idea to post this!

I lost about 1000BD before I decided not to place anything on the market again for awhile..
so people - stay clear of the market for awhile, you might lose your money

I agree whole-heartedly.  These types of straight forward messages show people that you're aware, and help reduce bimbo-panic across the boards.

Thank you!  sourire

Re: THE MARKET

Thank you for this message.

I really love it when there's a well placed warning about things so I know what to avoid- I lost money on the market because I thought it was merely system delays.  I thought wrong. .___.;;


Generic plea to click my eggs, please and thank you? ♥

Re: THE MARKET

I've lost quite a few BD.  I've bought items and have had items bought from me.  I don't think I've seen the money show up.  Thanks for posting this.  I will stop selling things until it clears up.

Re: THE MARKET

Thank you for the warning, but i didn't see this board until somebody posted in a thread i started! I shoudl have checked proerly I guess. i have been on the forums a few times a day since this board was made, guess I just didnt see it. I've lost about 300BD. Not sure, not a lot tho. Guess I'm luckier than some!

Re: THE MARKET

the market is broken from1.may. Why this message come only at 10.may.
Maybe you can try to find a new programmer. Currently your work is rubbish

Re: THE MARKET

Bitite, I think (first of all you need to wash your mouth out with soap! And at 14 you should not be using that language at all!) that its not the mods fault that the market went down, they were just trying to warn people! I think it was really nice of them. And, the site is obviously still battling to cope with the extreme amount of users that joined with all the media attention. Other sites like this (eg neopets) have simliar problems. If it upsets you that much, don't play! I think they are doing a good job-already they have fixed so much!

Re: THE MARKET

Thanks for posting this.
Is there any way those of us who have lost money will get it back?
I realise that would probably be impossible, I'm just wishful thinking wink

Re: THE MARKET

Yeah, I would like to have even a little bit back. I lost smoe and now I have almost no money at all... And I know some people lost a lot more than I did...
Probable it won't be possible, but still it's nice to have even a little hope at all.
