I have said this in other threads and i will say it here since it obviously wasn't absorbed by the GM team at all.
That right there and many other dupes is whats completely ruining this server. People are buying these in bulk and if you don't do it yourself you can't afford anything in game. I ask about items to buy and it's "i was offered 30,000 silvervine" These people that buy this stuff are not buying it by giving you guys 300$. They are buying it for cheap on that site n pedaling it to people in game.
If i want to buy an item and compete with people im forced to spend 300$+ to buy it legit or support cheaters on that website and pay much less. This is why the woe/pvp and this server as a whole is a bad joke to people that aren't already invested. You do nothing about dupes, I know of multiple people with samurai spectre cards(which happens to be one of the few mvp cards sold on the very same site). One of these groups also has a bapho(also sold on the site). This group of cheaters also have high weapon box +10s, slotted +10 ice picks and so on. All sold on this site.
I am not asking for every dupe to be dealt with but would it kill you guys to handle the big issue items and do something about this -_-? There were 80 some accounts online when the bot wasn't updated. Many of which are multi clienting so id say it's safer to bet around 40-50 people. It would not be hard at all to check these accounts for dupes. Check samurai spectre cards, ohh theres 4 in circulation find the original delete the others, same with the bapho, maya purple, ghostring, deviling, angeling, giant whisper, veteran swords, other high weapon box items and so on. Why the hell are these people allowed to circulate dupes to unsuspecting people and why are they allowed to buy these items from a site to gain an advantage over legit players?
Duped silvervine should NOT be setting prices for items. If i wanted to compete id have to spend 300$+ just to buy an item that may be deleted if you guys ever decide to do something about dupes. Think about that for a moment, you aren't going to refund my 300$ if that occurs, im screwed. This is why no one wants to play seriously here aside from a small group of invested players. If you ever want this this server to grow. No one is going to stick around when any chat you enter trying to buy a good item its "ohh i was offered X silvervine" new people are gonna look up how much silvervine costs say screw this n delete the game.
