Offline stall suggestion

[Vandal02]

Zankza, I suggest to limit the duration of AFK stall, instead of closing it after emptied. say 24 hours? to be honest, it's very boring to look at the very same stalls everyday.. too many ghost stalls and also we might missed good newly open stalls.

hope you can consider this. thank you.

If it was at least 48h I'd agree, but 24h is too short.

a whole day of having offline stall which requires nothing is 2 short?, are you kidding, lol.

It wasn't even a feature for official TOP then, and now people get to level pet at no cost other than rations/fruits needed. The time factor which the more active players had to give them an extra boost in pet level difference is gone. Totally agree with Vandal

Well, not sure if you guys ever set AFK Stalls, but it feels great to simply stall stuff with an alt and not having to worry about re-opening, DCing, or having that extra client around while the character is stalling till everything's bought.

But yes, it does have lots of downsides. For instance it's very hard to find what you're looking for in the complete mess of stalls, and honestly the city is just too crowded with them. There's also the fact that you can pretty much lvl your pet much more easily. (Which is actually better for the PC, rather than the player)

I really don't see how making stalls close after a set amount of time would really solve anything. I believe most stalls are set by people who are actively playing or at least wouldn't mind re-making a stall every now and then. I doubt there's people who just made a stall for the lulz which doesn't intend to close by selling out nor by the player.

Although I strongly agree with adding something which would make those afk stalls more bearable, a time limit wouldn't really do a lot in my opinion. The Ctrl + S option, which hides stall names, was a step in the right direction imo.

What if put a every week all stall shut down , like a reset , so it gets clean of all people inactively stalling

I also do afk stall. it is convenient, like it. but i still think it is not supposed to be permanent until sold out... ctrl+s to hide all stalls will still wont help the case to look for new stalls, obviously.

May-be A Fee for Offline stall ?
like 1000 a min after 3H

1000/min? that will suck dry people's money for sure hehe..


ok i know the consequence of limiting afk stall might discourage the rum consumption to buy rations, which should be bad for the game longevity.
what about 90 hours time limit?

people would have 99 autorats in bags with lv30+ pet fully filled, equivalent to about 90 hours worth of energy in 1 afk stall time.

at least there is mechanism to automatically kick away those nasty permanent quitting stall... and those stalls name like afk for weeks/months... seriously?

The server does restart once or twice a week, so they are already forced down every now and then. I'm not sure putting on a time limit would change much either. I doubt people set their stalls without checking on them at least once every two days, probably more often. I think the space between stalls requirement already improved a lot for us to be able to see the new stalls. Not sure there is anything that can be done other then people spacing out their stalls through all main cities. I think allowing for people to set stalls outside safe zones would be good too, like cooking stalls close to dw portal, amp stalls close to leveling places, etc, but people would surely be trolled by Aries all the time D:

thanks for your info that the server does restart once or twice a week. i don't realise it, really.. there's no announcement about weekly maintenance i think, unlike IGG hehe, cheers

We are supposed to make money using stall, not losing money while stalling lol
48 hours sounds good to avoid useless stalls
