Zeta Vandyke Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Another thing that starts to annoy me more each time I encounter it Fat Pack exclusives! Just put everything you have for sale, let me decide if I want to buy a plain color, or a fancy pattern, or maybe two different ones. And if I want more than one, I can consider going for a fatpack. But don't try to force people into fatpacks by making the nicer looking ones exclusive to fatpacks. I understand, its their product, their decision. I just find it a very high "screw you customer!" level. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's easy to continue shouting "screw you customer!" when you have a legion of rabid brown-nosers willing to chase off any heathen apostates who dare besmirch the name of the holy one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Huntsman Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I think my biggest pet peeve, is when someone is a hypocrite. Like I was recently in this discussion with people on Facebook. Where before they were defending the actor who is gonna play Ariel, but then weeks later. They are being sexist, and saying that Scarlett Johansson can't play a trans man, cause she is a woman. Like if you say don't discriminate against someone, based on the colour of their skin. Then don't go and discriminate someone, on the basis of gender. I know some might disagree, but to me it's hypocrisy and discrimination is discrimination. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of creators do pattern only fatpacks....which I’m more than happy to buy. I just wish that trend catches on. Paying 1200 for basic colors plus three patterns? CANCELED!

I honestly just wish they would sell Patterns, designs and graphics as singles. Like to me, I just don't want to be paying 1299 for 40 plus colours, patterns and designs and only wear 1 or 2 what's in the fatpack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you’re right single patterns would be ideal. I pass up a lot of stuff because of the fat pack exclusive thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the uuid, they already took the picture for the vendor. It really wouldn’t hurt to just sell it separately. 90% of the work is already done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never buy those types of fatpacks, or the single plain colors, no matter how cute the item may be. Partly out of spite. I’m petty like that, and doubt I’m the only one. I would buy all of the cute patterns, though, if I could buy them separately. I do like and purchase the pattern only packs. There is one creator I can think of that offers lots of patterns and single colors and then adds additional patterns in the fatpack. I buy those, because I love everything coming out of that store. It’s more of a bonus rather than hiding the good stuff in the FP. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems like a way to pinch every linden out of you, when they put your favourite design, colour, pattern or graphic into a fatpack. And that practice, I really don't agree with. There is one store, that I will always buy from. As she puts her plain and design/pattern/graphic into that specific colour. So you will say buy a black shirt, but instead of buying just a plain black shirt. She will put the graphics that go with that black shirt, in the single. And at 250 per single, you are getting that for a steal. That is 2 or more shirts, with one colour. For the price of one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re not petty, I do it too. I think it’s actually more petty that someone hides like three patterns behind a paywall. I think they would probably sell more if they did a pattern pack too. It falls into the “is it 1299, nice? Nah....” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard of that sim before, so I went in and had a look - it's nice, and it's a shame it might be going out of business. But the entitled whining of its supporters and the (from the little I've read, some of which might be plain hearsay) creator, makes me almost want to watch it burn. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Huntsman Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Okay, another one of my pet peeves. It's when shape designers charge so much for a shape, when all you did was tweak some sliders, uploaded an ad photo, and then that's it. And please don't get me started with the style card, if you already owned it. Why is it as the consumers responsibility, to compensate you for what you are wearing, your skin and your hair? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
