I honestly think it has to do with the animated winter background because that only loads in the corner. But yeah I should probably report that. I don't really have a problem with it though. Just need to do a lil zoom out and I'm fine. I can see how it would probably bother other people.

I'm still holding out on unique knuffel auctions even though there are people still richer than me in FP lol.

I already mentioned the mobile zoom, feel free to add that you're experiencing it too in that thread

And it's been doing that since before the event and I have the animated stuff turned off

Yep.
But I think Firn reported to starkad that only the quote sign (") at the beginning was showing, and there should be another should be at the end too.

I dunno, i keep animation off all the time. XD
We haven’t had a unique knuffel auction in awhile…not that i would be able to participate, i’m not THAT rich. XD

Well if starkad has already made a note of it on the first post, i’d feel bad if i mentioned it as well like i’m nagging them to do it…xD;; so as long as its been mentioned once, i’m good.

How rich is THAT rich?

I sometimes feel very rich, and all of a sudden I spend ALL my funds and I realize I'm not so rich actually XD


Yeah, if starkad has added it to his ToDo list, he'll eventually get to it.
It just takes time cause it's a lot of stuff to do.

Oh I wouldn't have even realized there should have been another quotation mark at the end if no one told me. I kind of like how they look now.

I have what you call a bystander syndrome I guess? Where I think someone else will report it. Then no one does because they also think someone else will. It's usually not until I'm talking about it in a group that I realize no one has done anything.
Maybe it's called the bystander effect.

I was so determined to win one and I bid the max FP I had at the time...then someone came in and outbid me by a lot. lolololol. I bet I would still be outbid even now. I don't really spend my FP to begin with since almost all the items I would like are selling for FC.

Apparently there is such a syndrome indeed, I had no idea!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bystander_effect


Well, if you bid the max you had, then you did your best.
Maybe someone else with more funds wanted it badly too. I know I've overvalued items when I really wanted them, and bid way more than they would usually sell for.
And in these last auctions I've been outbid by users willing to pay even more than I do!


Anyway I'm hoping we keep getting these auctions from Firn.
If there is a positive reaction (meaning users start to get active in them, and we sell our own items for FPs too) it might re-activate the economy a little bit.

I remember learning about it in High School I want to say (that's like 10+ years ago soooo). I just remember thinking that it was me, I would be one of those that will assume someone else with take action.

True. Plus they were unique so I know a lot of people wanted them. It was my main goal for saving my FP up for the longest time. Now I just have a bunch of FP that I really don't spend now. I usually don't look at the auctions in the market cuz I'll never be on when the auction ends. I just know someone will come on last minute to outbid me.

Wait, Auctions from Firn? OH NO I have been missing those. I always look at the buy now listings.

Yes, she run some auctions last week, and there are more items from her this week.
Don't forget to check them out!


Oh, there are often snipers.
That's why I try to make sure to bid as much as I'm willing to pay. If I'm willing to pay up to 50k I'll bid 50k directly.
If someone outbids me then I think I did the best I could do - and that other person was willing to pay more than I did so they would outbid me either way.

I will admit to having snipped on auctions before but sometimes that's the only way to win. I prefer not to though because worrying about that timing is obnoxious too. I lose out that way just as much as anyone else.

Well, I've never had much fp on this site though so that's all pretty outside of my reach.
