I don't understand 1.9/1.85/1.8 threads. I could use FOE tools to display all the rewards everyone will get, but I have to put my own FP in there first.
How do you get people to just throw their FP on your GB?
Someone explain 1.9 to him im to damn tired.I don't understand 1.9/1.85/1.8 threads. I could use FOE tools to display all the rewards everyone will get, but I have to put my own FP in there first.

You will get more answers in that other thread you started. Short answer? You don't. If you don't want to invest at least something into your GBs, you have picked the wrong game.I don't understand 1.9/1.85/1.8 threads.

I mean i definitely did not LEGALLY snipe a guild member through the swap because someone posted the gb in enough threads for me to be able to snipe them, but i was doing it legally and posting my own gb after....(nervous laughter)For leveling my own, once I can afford to lock investor positions it's 1.9 all the way. Much faster than relying on swaps.
For my own at levels too low/expensive for me to take them to a 1.9, a combination of self leveling and swaps, though I detest swaps. Way too many games going on in those things. Probably the most efficient at lower levels would be a small private swap group, especially when you're working with limited FP incomes. I did that with an Arc for several levels until I could afford to get into a 1.x thread.
Lol, I think I hear a siren, the Forge Police are on the prowl!I mean i definitely did not LEGALLY snipe a guild member through the swap because someone posted the gb in enough threads for me to be able to snipe them, but i was doing it legally and posting my own gb after....(nervous laughter)
No way! (yeah so i uhh have definitely done this)
Me experimenting with using swap threads to prime 1.9 spots? What do you take me as? a CRIMINAL? this is all legal.
AND why i don't use swap threads often. Too much abuse is possible
I only did it once FP police! WHAT!? 15 years in jail????Lol, I think I hear a siren, the Forge Police are on the prowl!
But yeah, too many games in swaps for me. You see a higher level guild, open-join, a lot of high RP members and a smaller mix of lower RP and completely new players, watch out.
= High RP player putting a higher level GB in the 5, 10, 20 swaps, till primed then moving it to the 1.9, all positions taken by investors, and the clueless sheep get shorn.
= Players who keep their GB in play in the swaps, attracting the little guys who think they have a shot at a reward spot if they keep putting fps in every time they see it. Problem is that the player has an arrangement with a buddy or buddies waiting for him to put it into the 100 FP swap, he does and suddenly it's quickly leveled and the little guys watch their slow investment go poof. The sheep don't realize it's a lousy way to try to get a reward, don't understand what locking a spot means, and have ridiculous dreams of taking a top spot on a higher level GB (without the means to do so). And they get shorn. And come here to complain about it being unfair.
"But we need a 100 point swap thread. We're bringing in so many FP a day we need some place to put it." Oh yas, I hear clippers.
= And then there are the denizens of the swaps, those whose game seems to be hovering 24/7 over the multiple threads waiting to pounce on the unwary with a well-placed snipe. The shaved unwary might well object, but is met with leadership stating that swap threads are for leveling, if you want a spot you better lock it, nothing to see here, move along. So old sheep shuffle off and fresh young lambs enter stage right.
I've actually been in a guild with all that, but thankfully not all guilds -- or players -- are like that. Depends on character. A swap can be a really good place to work on levels IF in the right guild and higher level players really want to help.
Did I mention I don't like swaps?
I was just wondering how everybody prefers to level their GBs. Let me know if i missed any other major ways, or share you ideas
Bad boys bad boys whatcha gonna doI only did it once FP police! WHAT!? 15 years in jail????
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
lol
