Annoyance - people making my hits in the red!

Submitted by kirsty_to_stay on Tue, 28/07/2009 - 7:17am
Disclaimer - I merely need to rant, this isn't aimed at anyone specific, past, present or future people! It seems everyday now someone different is on a mission to run 1np sales on the shop ads board. This down right pisses me off for the following reasons 1 - Often the person would have shit hits otherwise anyway - so stop faking at trying to look a good maller and actually go out there and put effort into making your shop amazing (disclaimer - not always the case with all people who do this) 2 - You are making my hits in the red due to mass clicking of the misc option and other option. I HATE being in the red, red is ugly, I was in the green for everything except sw, (working on that :P) how dare you people who do this make my page have ugly redness :( 3 - Yes I full on admit it, I want a shot at that top spot!!! I refuse to be a hypocrite and run my own sale though! I so needed to get that rant out of my system

End result Shop Till You currently have 11,427 NP in your till. Most items came out of my sdb so it only cost me loss of potential profits This is what I did spend Bone Vault Background 9np x maybe 8 or so Raining Doughnuts Background 20np x 3 Neohome Background 30np x 3 Cloudy Sky Background 1 x 100 3 kirsty_to_stay 593 (insane increase in hits) You: 32 299 172 11 9 63 7 Particularly my "other" hits! In conclusion - 1np sales jack peoples hits up (piss people like me off) and rarely earn the person extra profits! Now someone hit me with a frying pan for being a hypocrite :(

Nahh it's not a hypocrite, it's proving a point. And speaking of points, what ever happened to the 1np sales that i used to see almost every hour :( I miss them

Oh you mean the ones that ran everyday without fail :O How insane that I didn't even keep the board running long, deliberately kept it short! Some people make it go on for like 4 - even 6 pages, imagine how many hits I would have got from that *lol* Anyone planning on doing sales on a regular basis, especially those who use misc, watchout, I demand to be in the green at all times :K My misc is still red *cry* and my sw one is hard to do anything about with my current shop stock

I did the same experiment and out of 180 1 np items I put in my shop (they really cost me 1 np) my shop till was 3,039 (437 hits that day).... not worth it and like you I don't want super inflated shop hits because it defeats the purpose / skews the results. _____________________________________________________ ~ Mimi's Ménagerie Avatars ~ http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=temps_bons&misc

Look Kirsty, you're at the top right now lol! :*

Yeah apparently I got enough hits from it just by having a board up for 20 minutes :K So you can only imagine the number of hits people who sit doing it for ages crank up! As Dmitri pointed out, imagine if he ran them boards and heavily wiz priced his shop, he'd be at over 4k hits a day, and probably have less profits overall!
