I find much humor in people posting, "Want To Buy" ads in the forums.
Is there a legitimate reason in your opinion or are they just plain lazy?

Speaking of faces...someone sent me a picture of his girlfriend and said it would make "her" happy if he got this character.
How funny is that? |

They're not lazy, they just refuse to comb through the hundreds of threads (all while they're moving in order btw)
I've suggested to CCP at least twice to add a ******* subforum for each kind of request, it would take them 5 minutes but they refuse.
How hard would it be to make a separate subform for WTS, WTA, WTT, and WTB threads? Curb the madness. THE KING OF EVE RADIO

I say have SP and ISK categories. Not that hard.
But, if you post a WTB ad at least have the decency to respond to the people that offer their pilots for review.

You should probably change your face then, I hear you can have your avatar resculpted.

WTB is a trend word in online MMOs, just like selfies are in real life. People just love to type WTB, lazy or not. |

- Some things are not profitable enough to manufacture in normal quantities and they are a waste of time to sell on regular market if made in large quantities. If you want a large enough quantity of an item like this, it's best to put a WTB order. That way you can easily find someone who will take the job. On the other hand, you won't find items of this type in WTS threads because of their selling speed in a regular market environment. The best example for this is a new fleet doctrine some nullsec alliance suddenly decides to use. No one sane will build 100 Lokis (for example) prior to making sure that they will have buyers for them.
- If there's no good offer for items in WTS threads and you still need them, it's logical to place WTB thread;
- If you want to find a regular interval material (minerals, ore, fuel,...) supplier, it's best to place a WTB thread;
- If you want to buy some hard to find officer mod, a rare ship or some collector's item a WTB thread is almost mandatory. You can't find many of those in WTS threads;
- Demand for supercaps and titans is much bigger than the supply. You can see that just by comparing WTB and WTS sections of the forum and counting how many of supercap / titan threads are in each. When the demand is much bigger than the supply, it's natural to have more WTB threads;
- If you want to buy a specific wormhole or a wormhole type, the only way to do it is to place a WTB thread, other than scanning for it yourself, of course. Not all players have enough free time to be able to play for a whole day (or days), but some do. An exchange of ISK for that specific wormhole system that caught your attention is good for both involved parties and it's not something you'll find in WTS threads, since there are around 2000 W-SPace systems out thre (you do the probability math);

They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake. |
