(XBOX)Oussii Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Yesterday i finished the research of the bp, so i decided to give 20 ignith free, (daily).. and what a mistake it was, I really regret that I went to the trading chat, sent the msg: Free Ignith bp. PM for invite and yes in fact, seconds and i was flooded with messages I invited 18 players, and gave them the bp free, On player insisted to give me 3 plats in return (thank you very much) i logged out, and came back to the game after 1 hour, i went to the trade channel again to give away the remaining 2 bps surprisingly, i saw some players who got the bp from me for free were trying to sell it in the channel for 5 or 10 plat. What a shame and abuse My move was to help tennos who did not get that weapon, and since it's in the dojo, i said why not? But after seeing that, i guess my decision was wrong,. Just wanted to take it off my chest and express my deception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MobyTheDuck Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Ignore said players, check the profile of the next ones you trade with. Its a shame people do that, really. But I guess people try to take advantage of everything nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NobleParadox96 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 oh greed... one of the 7 sins that everyone is drowning in... everyone being obsessed with money these times... on the other hand you gave something nice along with many others who did the same thing you did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatnix. Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Sucks that this happened. But you know what they say about the philanthropist life: If you give to 10 beggars and 9 of them were faking it, be glad you were there to give to the 1 that needed. Or something like that. I'm not... good at cheering people up. I commend you on your actions! Does that work? Agh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zepp_ Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 You did the right thing. Just look forward and ignore the fringe. If you helped even one of those 18 to get something they didn't have, it's a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artemisfortune Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I'll be the minority here, but you gave them for free, they're no longer yours. You're judging people on what they chose to do with their free item. If you were worried about what they were going to do with it, then you shouldn't have given it away at all!

IceColdHawk Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) Putting an event gun into dojo as research, now that was a great mistake.

(XBOX)ThermalStone Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 38 minutes ago, Sean said: I just can't give things to random people for free. People in the same clan as I or on my friends list? Sure. But random people in trade chat? Nope. I found going to the Bazaar and just asking for any Ayatans in exchange for the BP is far more rewarding to both parties involved in the trade as that means the person receiving the BP is less likely to go and sell it and I get one stop closer to achieving my goal of being at max capacity in the ship. Interestingly enough, I've had some pretty nice people come by and tossing more and more Ayatan Sculptures into the trade despite me continually hitting "ready" and even had a few people toss in some platinum as well. Again though, all I did ask for at the very minimum of one Ayatan Sculpture. I'm going to try this. I've had good luck today selling things at my usual prices but advertising "Comes with free Ignis Wraith!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zNightWolfz Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 thats not odd at all i have given alot of them away and within minutes ive seen the same people trying to sell it in trade once they have it thats up to them. Its a shame to see someone ask for it free then try to sell it but as they say karma is a b####h and may it forever affect there rng ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to take it off my chest and express my deception Do not let the actions of those you helped bless with the item tarnish what you were attempting to do for others. You were a god of a player giving to the weak......some were grateful for your providence while others just saw a way to get easy plat. Who knows, you may have given hope to one of them that failed at getting the event weapon for whatever reason and your gift gave it to them. Never be shocked by the actions of your fellow players as they are just humans. Besides, you took plat for one of them which was basically a sale as well. Your intentions in your mind are what count....not what others do with the item once given out (or sold by you). Hek, i want a second BP just to have in my FOUNDRY....and it looks like it will cost me something to get one. That is the life in this game. Keep doing your thing and it will work out fine.

There is a lot of Prime items and mods that I'd happily gift to players but since I don't want to deal with what OP is dealing with, I'm pretty stingy with what I give away and to whom.

Just wanted to take it off my chest and express my deception While I agree that people can be underhanded... not all of them are that way. The ones who are obviously needed the platinum. While selling the gift you gave them out of kindness is rotten... they still got value out of it. So it's no loss on your part. just make sure you aren't giving the same person multiple ones over the course of a week or so by personally writing their names down. You've done your part (shown them kindness) and that isn't diminished by their greed. edit: also keep an eye out for the low mr players the ones who message you out of the blue... they 'could' be a new account from one of those people trying to fool you. while it is stupid and against the ToS and very bannable... people will still do it.

Hypernaut1 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Just because they try to sell it didn't mean it gets sold. If enough players offer it for free, no one will be dumb enough to pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaUrchins Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Well, you ended up helping them to get plat, what's so bad about that? You indeded to help, didn't you? Giving them free BPs you wanted to save them from spending plat, but you actually did more, you helped them to gain plat. So why the salt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
