Between these running up the already failing “economy” of PIMD with the OP prices behind a paid product, yall are continuing to support and feed into people making SCAM accounts to rip people off with bentos just for some re-released avi yall already had. Put it in shop and/ make the damn boxes tradable. Yall just had bf, I don’t know why you continue to suck dry the game. People spent THOUSANDS during that time and yall can’t even do something nice for the holiday season? Real scam shit there. 🍅🍅
Well I know what I am not participating in. The fact that they thought this was a good idea is a joke.🍅🍅🍅
Oh yeah it only shows the vip on the gift boxes, so that's an issue when people don't understand what they're getting... Also that just plain sucks too, like the cost of getting the top tier as vip if you're not lucky is ludicrous
Great idea.....not......you know what would really make you all money!?!? Christmas themed shard avis......now that is a cash grab and the communication wouldn't complain!.....do better
Same, I love that they are doing more without the white outlines. They look so much better without it. I would love that if some of the previous avis could lose theirs as well. 🖤
Just adding my voice to the protest/feedback, please stop making these things gifts, instead of being tradable. PIMD should be a safe community where players don't have to constantly fear being scammed when looking for the items they want. The fact that ATA seem to be encouraging the scammers is extremely disappointing.
Respectfully both BF and this hunt were massive L’s. You need to stop recycling content no one wants, when you bring back male avis it’s almost always ones no one wants. Stop doing the 4-2 Female to Male Ratio if it was the other way around everyone would say it’s “Sexist” and would call for ATA’s heads tryna cancel them and all that. If it’s so difficult to make creative hunts get more people on your creative team. You need to do better if you want to keep this game alive and make it better like you claim you do
I think it’s crazy that these are ec gifts but they don’t even contribute to the ec gift xc event… idk if that’s a bug or not but considering these are such high ec priced gifts, not only does it set up others for being scammed, it’s also frustrating that you make it ineligible to count towards the ec xc gift event 💀 I’m not sure if other people noticed that or if I missed anything stating that within the forum but I have sent these avis to my rs and she has accepted but none of it counted towards the EC event so that’s great.
I love this idea, but hate how it was put where you're forced to do it through the gift section. These should have been available for purchase via the regular shop, allowing people to either buy for themselves or to purchase the box to then gift to others or trade. This just causes a lot of playerbase to get scammed, which despite not being against the rules should be actively discouraged as it is harmful to playerbase.
I know ATA that you hear our complaints. Here's the thing, I know scams are always out there and sometimes it is inevitable coz you can't control them BUT you can put a stop on those scams through NOT RELEASING contents like this gifting EC-worth items coz we all know that it is just a NEW avenue to scam people. It is good to encourage everyone in gift giving but everything here in game, when it is about extra credit items, there will be bentos in equivalent. For example, the recently concluded Black Friday event, you released the 19ec, 39ec, and 79ec black friday gift boxes, and there's a bunch of people "selling gift boxes" for cheap price, well, I know that ever since I started playing, 25ec item is equivalent to 1 bento. And technically, 19ec item is 1 bento, so some people want to save instead paying others with overpriced items but because SCAMS ARE INEVITABLE. Buyers became gullible with the cheap prices and I don't blame them, instead I warn everyone in the pub. I even called out people who are doing the scams, but of course, because it is against Terms of Services, I was silenced because "it might affect their reputation" if the scams are either true or false, right? I like how you encourage people not to destroy anyone's reputation because yeah, sometimes they're just pranking or joking but not all the time. I wish before silencing everyone because of calling out scams.There should be a thorough investigation how we come up with calling out. I don't know anyone personally that got scam, but just through observation in pub, in walls, in gifts, you can identify who can scam and who are not. Maybe I'm just speculating, but when someone confirms in the pub that they've been scammed by these particular people, I know it is a scam. One is "maybe they're just joking" but witnessing a bunch is alarming. Put a stop in releasing contents which encourage people to scam. Gifting ec-worth items are just a new avenue to scam people. Trading ec-worth items might be the answer and it still can encourage everyone to socialize. I know you hear us, please HEAR US.
For everyone wanting to buy from someone: Please, Be aware! New account? Absolutely not. Requires payment first? Nope. Check the gifts of other buyers on their wall! If someone is selling the avis & they have bentos in accepted gifts, CHECK THE SENDER TO SEE IF THEY GOT SENT AN AVI! Take the time to think about it, if you think its sketchy, dont do it. Be careful yall & ask your friends first 🫶
I feel like the lesson def should've been learned with how high the scam rates were during the bf ec boxes. We specifically asked for things that can be done over trades and instead we got more extra scam prone gifts. It's disappointing especially seeing as just calling out a scammer to warn others gets us silenced nice to bring back the avis, the fact that it's over gifts only is upsetting though... It's a good idea, bad execution kinda situation 💔
I'm gonna copy and paste the first part to share on my wall, if you don't mind. There's so many tells, we can't possibly fit them in a campus post.
While the Avi’s are fancy I don’t agree with teen being gifted, this does not allow for everyone to get a nice avatar.
That is absolute BS! It is an ec gift and should count tored the event of ec gift giving! Let's step back and take away the scam opportunity, the bringing back old avis noone wants, the male to female ratio when it comes to putting avis out being completely unfair. But if anything else, if you're going to create an event that revolves around the idea of giving people ec gifts but cant even make this count to that (EVEN THO ITS AN EC GIFT) then you have completely failed the community already. Adding in everything else i mentioned thats just a slap to the face of the people on this app who spend their money here! 😮💨
As someone who’s played for over 10yrs, I would get jealous if others having items that I wasn’t able to get from previous years. But I worked my butt off to get bentos and ecs to be able to trade for items that I wanted to collect from old hunts and I continue to do this. I’m happy you guys care about new players being able to get old items but it’s so unfair for players who have spent A LOT in the past or even less than a year to get items they liked and for now these items to come back in different colors?? What’s the point in collecting and spending our time and money if these items aren’t collectibles anymore?? Where’s the fun in searching for these “rare/old” items and having to trade of them? If things like this are going to continue to happen..then drop the prices and raise the stats on these Avis/furni. Make things TRADEABLE so it’s safe for EVERYONE. I see this company is becoming a fan of people getting scammed. Very disappointed.
