Title: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: timposter on August 13, 2009, 11:06:21 am I'm making a new topic because the old one was messed up. The new one will have voting by posts, not a poll. To vote you must have one completed order at Empire's store.
Results: Yes-3 No-5 Voting will end August 20th 12:06PM EST Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: B~T on August 13, 2009, 12:38:17 pm His service is quick and easy, but his prices are so low that he drove other shops out of business. Nebs for only two clicks are quite low. And I notice that you buy from other shops just to sell them cheaper.
I cannot decide whether Empire should be an outstanding trader, but once I make up my mind, I will have an opinion. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Rakoua on August 13, 2009, 01:55:36 pm Quote I voted no because I think that you are trying to hold a monopoly over the other shops, with the discounts, it doesn't give anyone else a chance to get orders. Besides, some parts of your shop could use a change... A new format for stuff and all... So I vote no.And I didn't feel too comfortable when I ordered, so the enviorment should be changed a bit. All in all, too much room to improve for me to vote yes. And there si the monopoly thing. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Kritzelei on August 13, 2009, 02:31:12 pm I have changed my vote to no, I have noticed Empire's shop seems to be draining the business out of the smaller shops.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: LordVaderRulez on August 13, 2009, 04:56:20 pm I vote yes. For two reasons. One Empire buys his items from smaller shops therefore boosting there sales. (My shop for example often sells empire items), two if you don't like his shop don't buy there, because if you buy from him you are promoting his shop.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Empire981 on August 18, 2009, 07:48:31 am im helping some shops get out of superstock, i helped walter313 do it, im helping saturn2.0 do it right now too.
this has spanned 5 days already the poll is over, but its a tie, i wonder what we do now... Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Chicken Lord on August 18, 2009, 08:04:06 am I vote no.
Because of the reasons before. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: LordVaderRulez on August 18, 2009, 08:44:25 am Well what I see his if you don't like his shop and think it's harming yours and others don't shop here. And buying stuff just to vote would be cheating, I think.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 18, 2009, 08:53:23 am I vote no for all the reasons I have stated before.
Also B~T, I sell nebs for two clicks as well. I find it's rather easy to get them, thus I sell hem for little. If anyone needs a good way to get nebs, go to Ace's page. He has a couple mines that are always up. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: MsRowdyRedhead on August 18, 2009, 02:35:56 pm I was going to remain neutral, but now I cannot. The trade with Empire went fast enough, though I did not feel reallly welcome.
However,afterward there were a number of pm's about my friendslist etc, that I do not think were called for. Hostile or sarcastic communication is never appropriaye, nor is rudeness. Therefore, I must vote NO. BTW I agree with others who have disagreed with the way Empire sometimes gets his items, but it was the way I was treated as a customer and after the sale that most influenced my vote. @ Empire, the poll is NOT yet over Voting will end August 20th 12:06PM EST Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Saturn2.0 on August 18, 2009, 02:48:03 pm I vote yes, even though he might run other shops out of business with cheap prices, I'm glad they aren't expensive, in the opinion of a customer. And I get items fast 'n easy here!
FYI, nebs in my shop are 8 clicks. -Well would you prefer buying items to sell them at a higher price or lower? Empire is dropping his profits for the sake of more business which brings more orders, and more profits, many low profits rather than little high prof's, wouldn't that sound fair?

It takes the spirit away. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: B~T on August 18, 2009, 04:57:26 pm Much to Empire's dismay, I vote NO.
I didn't really feel comfortable ordering in your shop, and even though you have cheap prices, it just brings many other shops out of business. Also, the way you get items kinda is unfair... Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 18, 2009, 08:46:07 pm So that's
2 yes 7 no This doesn't look good for Empire =P Say, is Empire the first person to put up an Outstanding Trader poll that ended up with him not getting the award? Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: LordVaderRulez on August 18, 2009, 09:07:57 pm As I stated before if you don't like his shop don't buy here! He's gonna keep seling his itemas and having this poll up and off untill the people refuse his items. That's how you really vote no.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: timposter on August 18, 2009, 09:15:22 pm Quote I'll give a reason you want and then a reason I feel is appropriate, so that everyone is happy. I vote no partly on what I've stated before. Monopolizing the MLN economy, yadayada. It hurts other businesses, and I feel like there should at least be minimum prices on this. It's kind of like OPEC not putting caps on prices for gas, so that the likes of ExxonMobil, etc. can get away with selling gas for $4 a gallon, which is wrong. Caps should be put in place. Also, my original order was denied (though I will admit my sarcasm was being unrealistic). However, one customer received an order, and when I requested the same order, I was denied to do that, having to take a smaller order. I didn't like that, so I vote no. @MsRR: To his defense, as I recall, the poll was meant to end today. However, because it was tied, the poll was extended. Although, I think Tim should have posted saying so, as this made things confusing. Voting was always meant to end the 20th. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: LordVaderRulez on August 18, 2009, 09:31:44 pm That is a good reason to vote no and I respect your opinion to do so. I myself thought the service was good, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't for others.

Thank You. Empire- ok, thats 3 clicks to my pos. Mrrh- Done.. Empire- please send friend request. Mrrh- done Empire- form 20B sent! Mrrh- Thank You. Empire- yup. please delete me instead of blocking me. your always biased against me no wonder why u voted no. can u please just delete me from your friend list instead of block me? Sure.. I thought it'd be easier if we traded again, but yes I can. well then why block me? Because I keep my FL short enough to see the "faces" if anyones not feeling welcome its me! cause right after the trade you blocked me Quote I'll give a reason you want and then a reason I feel is appropriate, so that everyone is happy.

Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award?

(3 yes) (7 no) and that just proves more! kinda strange that the best shop in mlno history get DENYED THE OUTSTANDING TRADER POLL! also, all your comments are based on monoplizing, and the feeling of shops, ive only come accross a couple of comments (people who voted yes) about the TRADING which is what this title is for, all the no voters just dont like me. dont argue its true.

Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 19, 2009, 10:11:52 am @Empire-all you do is keep listing excuses for why you aren't winning. And you must be pretty cocky if you think your shop is the best in MLNO history. The Spectrum Shop, Lionytai's Shop, And the Union Mall have all been around longer, and I think they are significantly better than your shop.
You also have a fairly large order ready to be delivered as soon as you click in my shop. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Chicken Lord on August 19, 2009, 11:37:27 am I've got a point to make before I leave.
I've been to the Spectrum Shop for ONE order, and it was better service then yours. You do not have the best shop. Darth Twilight is right. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: B~T on August 19, 2009, 11:46:25 am YOU were the one who said it was the best shop. Not us, ok?
Even Darth Twilight's shop I feel more comfortable with. @Empire-all you do is keep listing excuses for why you aren't winning. And you must be pretty cocky if you think your shop is the best in MLNO history. The Spectrum Shop, Lionytai's Shop, And the Union Mall have all been around longer, and I think they are significantly better than your shop. That is regrettably true... -_- Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 19, 2009, 11:48:28 am What do you mean EVEN my shop is more comfortable? But more to the point, I agree with B~T agreeing with me =P
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: B~T on August 19, 2009, 11:52:38 am Well, do you have the Outstanding Trader Award?
Because if you don't have it, then it proves my point. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 19, 2009, 11:56:43 am OIC.
*awaits Empire's next excuse* when does this poll close? Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Saturn2.0 on August 19, 2009, 11:57:08 am So besides extreme orders, and cheap prices, what keeps empire from winning this?
Try me. I want 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 apples, how much will it cost? Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 19, 2009, 12:02:16 pm His attitude is what keeps him from winning.
I don't think in the entire lifetime of MLN that many apples have been made. And we'ree actually awaiting a 100,000 apple order from Empire, which would prove our point. Still sitting at 3 yes, 7 no. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Rakoua on August 19, 2009, 12:03:15 pm So besides extreme orders, and cheap prices, what keeps empire from winning this? *Faceplam*Try me. I want 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 apples, how much will it cost? We're awaiting for 100.000 from empire, like DT said. Anyway, agreed with DT. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 20, 2009, 08:50:32 am *blinks* If you ever run for president, I'm voting for you.
Look Empire, although this award is about Trading, just sending the items for cheap isn't all about trading. It's about the attitude of the shopowner too. And this thing is a fairly big award, and I honestly don't think you are worthy of it. And to prove my point about your attitude, I'm having a PM conversation with Raks, the Admins are discussing temporarily banning you. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: timposter on August 20, 2009, 09:50:05 am And to prove my point about your attitude, I'm having a PM conversation with Raks, the Admins are discussing temporarily banning you. We are? Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Saturn2.0 on August 20, 2009, 10:27:50 am Tim you aren't an admin.....you're a puppy lord.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Ddude The Insane on August 20, 2009, 12:07:42 pm And to prove my point about your attitude, I'm having a PM conversation with Raks, the Admins are discussing temporarily banning you. We are? Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: timposter on August 20, 2009, 01:59:31 pm Eh, no, you get banned for a day if you reach -3 rep. Empire is at -2. -2 = no bannage. -3 = bannage.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Rakoua on August 20, 2009, 02:17:05 pm Actually, he was supposed to reach -3 but it was abandoned apparently.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: timposter on August 20, 2009, 07:41:11 pm -2 was as far as we decided to go.
Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: B~T on August 20, 2009, 10:09:15 pm Empire, item prices aren't it for getting the Outstanding Trader Award. You also need to be kind and considerate for your customer needs. Say, assume there were two shops in the middle of nowhere, where Shop 1 had cheap prices owned by a choleric man, whereas Shop 2 has a tad more expensive prices yet having a good character and is sensitive to customer needs. If that were the case, I'd buy from Shop 2.
And the poll's ended, so there's no point in fighting. You didn't get the award. Try again next time. I know the first two were from the Delivery incident(s), but about the 3rd one is beyond me. Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Saturn2.0 on August 20, 2009, 10:38:08 pm Ok, stop talking about banning empire, honestly, if people were talking about banning me, I would be REALLLLY ANGRY >={O!!!!
-Ok, have you guys bought from Empire's shop at all since the past election? This question may lead to another.... Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: Saturn2.0 on August 20, 2009, 10:56:44 pm How didja feel unconfortable shopping? Besides your post * about all the apples?
*Oh no, the big apple apocalypse is coming ={O! Title: Re: MLNO Outstanding Trader award? Post by: timposter on August 21, 2009, 06:45:32 am You are correct -3 is a day, -5 is a week, and -7 is a month, -10 is permaban.
Voting is now closed, Empire, you did not receive the award, you may try again when you have 200 orders. |
