Things That Are Bullsh*t (7 Viewers)

When I was a kid in the 90s I spent a lot of time at a place like sea world. The one orca and I became pretty friendly. I could see he was in pain. The park was doing some shady shit, so some of my friends and I actually hatched a plan to help the orca escape.

Tread softly. Someone got banned yesterday for threatening violence against another member. If he can get banned for that, I can only imagine what the punishment would be for posting something this egregious on this site.

 

[ekricket]

for threatening violence against another member

Hmm interesting. Was it because he threatened violence against a particular member? Because some of us don’t have this kind of protection.

 

[bergs]

I’ve been threatened before and nobody cared when I reported it.

Then again, I’m an asshole and I’ve been rightfully banned 127,352 times.

“Original Ken pricing”

For those of us not yet initiated into the Tiger cult, how about posting an actual price when you post your Tigers for sale?

(Not that I plan on buying them, I’m just nosy.)

Preach! The laziness and, to some extent, arrogance, is absolutely unreal.

Or you could ask in the thread what original Ken pricing is instead of passive aggressively doing it here

Or seller could just say what they actually cost right away

I don’t know if it’s passive aggressive to do it here. Is everything ever posted on this bullshit thread passive agressive? And I’m not targeting @liftapint specifically - she did it today, but people have been doing it for weeks and weeks, and as noted above, it’s kinda bullshit. And if I wanted to be a huge ass I’d complain that it’s a violation of this site’s rules to post a for sale ad without a price. But I’m not a huge ass.

And I’m not going to ask for a price clarification on chips that I have zero interest in buying.
So here we are.

I don’t ken what Ken pricing is, ken?


(This only works if you come from Fife, ken?)

You won't bother to ask for a price clarification on chips that you have zero interest in, yet you'll make a whole post about it in the bullshit thread (without even clarifying who you're talking about mind you). Makes sense

Is this like saying "pot" in a NL game?

It is unfortunate that this has been so upsetting for you.

This is the bullshit thread. Where we rant about stupid crap. If you think I’m being too negative because I’m ranting about a recent trend of people posting chips referencing some mystery price that very few people know off the top of their head, I’ll respectfully disagree.
I think you calling me out and calling me passive agressive in the bullsut threat is pretty negative.

Sorry if you felt personally attacked - that wasn’t my intention. Like I said, plenty of people have been doing it.

Mystery price? Really? Who's being lazy now?

 

[liftapint]

Preach! The laziness and, to some extent, arrogance, is absolutely unreal.

I appreciate your consistency.

 

[dpeks13]

I just talked to Ken, he said .50 a chip.
I do agree though, there’s 20 threads where someone has to clarify what that actually means.

Just list the damn price like you’re supposed to. Clearly in the rules “sales posts need a price” not a “refer to table 3b in the pricing guide”

 

[upNdown]

Mystery price? Really? Who's being lazy now?

I mean to be fair to me, as far as I can recall that price list might be buried in that 40 page “and so it begins” thread, or it may be in some of the sale specific threads, but I remember at least once the tiger prices were deleted from a tiger sales thread. So searching for the prices is kind of a lot. And I never called you (or anybody) lazy.

I mean, to be fair, all of the prices are listed in the OP of both of the rack sales threads.

https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/tiger-palace-rack-sales.101067/
https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/tiger-palace-rack-sales-2.102155/

And the prices for the chips from the individual collections (primary vs secondary vs HS) are also in the OP for those respective sales.

I don't see how "searching" for the prices is all that hard. Certainly not any harder than "searching" for the Bullshit thread, to complain about things.

Y'all can move on to the next thing that is bullshit, because at this point...

Well, that certainly belongs in this thread.

I think I'm with Rob on this one. Thing is - I don't know who tf 'Ken' is or immediately how to find his pricing. So when I see 'Ken pricing' in an ad, I just assume I'm not in the know on this particular topic.

Maybe it's because I'm in marketing, but the bottom line is I believe an ad should be as clear as possible. Combine that with the fact that some ads in the classifieds sell in minutes - and you could lose an opportunity fumbling around trying to find pricing info while someone else comes along and snatches them up.
