    Taxed mails (selling via mail)

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted

    I've seen a few people who trust others enough to send stuff via mail before being paid. Some others don't  :rolleyes:

    I thought an easy fix to this would be to have the option to add a "price to claim".

    If the receiver agrees, the person who sent the mail will receive the amount of money stated in the mail.

    If he doesn't, the sender will just get his stuff back.

     

    Done next update?  :)

    I'd put Tauros at A- if I could, so I guess I'm voting B+:

     

    Choice Band is an awesome item on Tauros: it has almost no coverage moves, a great Spammable STAB and a perfect partner in crime: Magneton. With steel types like Skarmory removed from play, Tauros can do some considerable damage, assuming it hits Metagross and doesn't wear itself out with the tempting Double Edge by nuking some walls first. Tauros is a good pokemon but it falls into the "needs team support" category, for sure.

     

    Given its totally shitty movepool, Tauros can afford to invest in two Normal STABs and run Facade/Return as well, which is an amazing way to abuse Chansey's Toxic. I've even seen sets that don't use Choice Band and instead opt for the greater damage output from Toxic-boosted Facade. However, in such a stall-y meta, the lack of firepower can be damaging, especially when you get Intimidated by the likes of Gyarados and Arcanine.

     

    Swampert is an A-rank as far as I'm concerned (maybe even +?). It's an amazing Metagross counter and with two STABs and ways of hitting every wall in the tier for respectable damage. It also boasts bulk that frailer sweepers like Aerodactyl, Ursaring and even Flygon envy when it comes to staying healthy. Nonetheless, it does have some flaws: its middling speed tier makes it weak to faster/CB Ursarings, Gyarados resists both of its STABs and like so many of the other sweepers in OU, it opens the door for Skarmory and Weezing swap in and do their thing.

     

    (always with a cb set in mind)

    All skarm and  forretress can do is setting up 1 (maybe 2?) layer of spikes before dying to waterfall.

    Weezing can check it, but flinches.

    Shares some similiarities with metagross: Hits hard, has a lot of bulk, average speed and can fit in any team while making for a good lead.

    Tauros can't really touch skarmory or forretress (unless running fire blast) and also has trouble with dusclops and aerodactyl. Also I believe pokemon like slowbro/arcanine are bulky enough to pivot in if protect scouting is not an option. Metagross is also an issue for tauros, being able to punish any tauros not locked into earthquake. 

     

    well sure, slowbro and knine are a perfect answer to any ph threat i can think of, tauros is not the only poke unable to break through those 2.

    Aero could be stopped with iron tail, tauros doesn't have many choices with it's 4th moveslot anyway.

    But ye, i didn't expect forretress to resist quake so well

     

    252 Atk Choice Band Tauros Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Forretress: 40-48 (21.9 - 26.3%) -- possible 5HKO after Leftovers recovery

     

    I wouldn't consider metagross that much of an issue because on the other side if you predict it and quake you're in a good position.

    If works really well against offensive teams even though there are better wallbreakers, ye

    yea itll be a few months. But what do you and other ppl who are raging and those who insult the devs expect to accomplish? They arent doing an update to revert the system back to the old only to change it back later. So its best to just deal with it until we get to test the economy and grinding with global trade. Does it suck now? Yes but thats to be expected when playing an alpha game. We test the suck and tell them how to make it suck less. They know grinding for items suck now and are hoping global trade helps fix it. If it doesnt we can express how much it sucks again and they can try something else.

     

    I mean, you can't use the alpha joke after 3 years of development (you actually can these days, but you get what i mean).

    We invested hours (and some of us even money) on this game, if everyone is as annoyed as they claim  the game is going to die before entering in beta.

    There should be a bit of concern towards the players that are playing the game now, basically allowing it to possibly one day an acceptable beta stage.

    Why is off topic important?

    If only some of you were more mature, it would never happened. Don't blame mods but more people which always abused from rules and like to troll the old thread like 5 years old childrens with the only goal to annoy moderators.

     

    I think the most active shitposters are all either dead or banned.

    If someone is nothing but a pain you ban him, you don't go closing offtopic, what kind of logic is that?
