Why is it that when I post an ad...

Submitted by return_of_weatherbee on Fri, 29/01/2010 - 9:26pm
Why is it that when I post an ad that's cheapest on the NB (like 51 neopoints) it NEVER shows up? It's been... 2 hours since I posted 3 ads for 51 neopoints to advertise open positions in the mall on the Notice Board, and they're still not there. They're not on the last page, or at the top of the list for other ads that are 51 neopoints.

it goes to the bottom of that cost. so if the lowest one costed 51np, if you post at 51 it wont show, you have to post at 52.

Because you need to pay 52 since all new ones at 51 get posted at the bottom aka. on page 55 or something (which is invisible) Works in the same way as 4mil ads. Your 51 will start making it's way up provided that the minimum ad amount stays at 51np. --------------------------------- Dmitri aka "the insensitive one" [size=11][i]Maller, restocker Kirsty siggy stealer Second Best wearables shop owner ever![/i][/size]

If possible go a few pages up because after the weekenders post it is going to get pushed off anyway. If there are pages and pages it may work out to your advantage to go one NP but if there is not you could get pushed away quickly.

Ahh ok. Thanks. But how do people go lower than 51 neopoints? So if I did one at 50 it would show up? Guess I'll just do them at 100 or so.

[center] If you post one at 50 np, it will show up ONLY if enough banners above it fall off. Basically, the 50 most expensive banners that have been paid for show up. If you pay too little to fall within the first 50 pages, your banner won't appear. Other banners will be added all the time, but other banners still are falling off (due to reaching an age of one week) all the time. So the price of banners on the fiftieth page will go up and down, based on what banners are present above that page. ------------------------------------------------------------------- [url=http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=raine_storme&misc]~~ Come visit my map shop ~~[/url] [/center]

There are 50 pages of ads, 10 ads per page. So only 500 ads can be displayed at any one given time. The highest is 4 million. Any ad that is lower than that shows below that ad. The last page cost, should never be given any attention. The last page cost will vary, depending on the costs of all the ads between the last page, and the first page. IF you catch my drift, you can easily fill up however many pages you want, if you price your ads correctly :D [font=Courier New] -------------------------------------------------------------- The STUFF - Mainly Codestones @ reasonable prices http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=whispering_acara&misc [/font]
