VENDORS DISSAPEARING (at least I think)

Well, a snap from Kuki showed that a Vendor is crying and dissapearing. 

Here's the photo.

Soooooo..... I'm really gonna start crying if the Tool Vendors go away. =/

Well, it could be a bug. Made by another bug. http://www.glitch.com/forum/bugs/22607/

  • I found the same thing earlier today; a new animation of the tool vendors...the vendor 'talks' (its mouth moves), shows you its briefcase of wares, pulls itself into a bubble...and then disappears for a short while!  Totally freaked me out the first time I saw it.

  • No need to be concerned. There was a slight blip, but all will be right soon be right with Ur again. 

    Thanks!

  • Obviously, there's an economical crisis up in Ur!

    I must confess, it must be ages ago that I bought something from a vendor. And I guess, I'm not the only one... So - it's pretty clear, that their businesses are running badly and that they need new jobs!
    I really hope, they'll stay and find another purpose in their lives!

  • There are still lots of things not available sufficiently through other mechanisms. I still patronize the Gardening Goods vendors for seeds and the Groceries vendors for ingredients. If they added "shuck" to crops, that would replace the need to buy seeds, but there is no way to get the ingredients in sufficient volume through random drops.

  • Janitch, you can get crop seeds by feeding crops to piggies. 3 crops=1 seed, and you can feed multiples of 3 if you wish.

    It's true that there are still many other things that are only available through vendors, but I trust TS to give us other ways to make those before they take the vendors away.

  • You can feed piggies 1 stack of vegetables at a time.

  • I don't care if we can't buy stuff anymore, but, if vendors go away, how will we auto sell crap?

  • I love the Gardening Tools vendor in Kipacre Greens - he's new?

  • Leites, the Gardening Tools vendors have always been there in the Community Gardens.  Not new.  Goes back to Alpha.

  • Pixieyelsraek, that's what the auctions and player to player trades are for.  You probably noticed that the vendors started paying less for your items a couple months ago.

  • I know the solution!
    Not too long ago prices Ur wide were increased, so people aren't buying so much anymore!

  • please don't make the vendors cry... I don't think I could take it.

  • I still use them to get things like honey and oils. Until we can grow and squash olives, or get honey from fireflies or start beekeeping.....

  • windborn - not everything sells player to player. I don't care if the prices go down, but autoselling is important.
    Posted 6 months ago by Pixieyelsraek Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Autoselling may be important right now, but TS has said in the past that they intend eventually to remove the street vendors.  

    I see the vendors paying less as one of the steps toward weaning us from that game playing strategy.

  • One wonders how the economy, which currently has very little demand in it, would function without the ability to delete items from the game in exchange for currants. Being able to print money the way the game lets us now is probably terrible for inflation :P

  • Liza - seeing as every other MMO i have ever played has the ability to rid useless items via autosell, and it doesn't ruin the economy, I don't see how glitch's economy is any different. Remove the ability to purchase items that players can farm or make, sure, and the economy will change and people will either farm/make more or purchase from other users {which will itself either cause inflation or cause no need for currants anyway}. Removing the ability to auto sell will cause people use the auction house more often, or because items will FLOOD the AH {at lower and lower prices}, cause them to give items away more often. Which might sound great to some, but as long as currants hold any importance at all in the game it can only cause QQ in the majority.

    Wind - I am aware they have said that, but changes can happen. This is beta, the time to put forth opinions about what works and what doesn't work. Removing vendors, fine. not being able to autosell, not fine. Many of us hope for an option, perhaps put on items to autosell. Or, remove currants so everything is on a trade or give basis. There are alternatives.

  • Even if they took away all the vendors, you would still be able to  "autosell".  It's just that you would get iMG instead of currants.  Everything you can sell to vendors can be donated at a shrine.  

    Currants don't have much importance.  Look at cubimals.

  • I really love the gardening vendors and hope they don't go away too.
    I really really really REALLY REALLY REALLY want the Cebarkul & Level 4 East vendors to still be able to buy our stuff when we need currants quick.  Like, really very much indeed.

    I'm just SO not looking forward to having to bend over backwards every time I need to earn currants quick.  :(

    Edit ~ ESPECIALLY since I really adore cubimals and am going to have to start finding a way to finance my cubi collecting again.  :3
