    Default 'Limited Quantities' Checkbox Stuck Checked in Marketplace Searches

    Sorry, I'm glad they got rid of including gacha in default search results. I've seen people with over 10,000 listings, all gacha. It's unfair to creators who spend thousands of hours making lots of original products as it harms their search rankings and makes their products harder to find because there's a lot more competition in search results. And we all know search results have always been questionable. People who don't even create content and instead just resell gacha items have been actively harming original content creators by doing things like creating stores with thousands of listings that a content creator has to compete with in search results.

    I hope the next steps are to make partial and 100% mesh default checks and to hide demo items in search results and instead have the listing on the search result indicate there's a demo available.

    Some of this gacha stuff is completely out of control. LL is doing their best to give relevant search results, it's bad enough they have tens of millions of listings to sort through, most of which have keyword spam, are out of date, etc. But to have to deal with stores with thousands of gacha listings is an unfair burden to LL as well as the content creators who have to compete for being in the first page of search results with gacha. I know I'm gonna get flamed for this but it needs to be said.

    Making this post is probably a bad idea but idc.

    I am sorry but I have NEVER heard those creators complaining while we were putting thousands of lindens into their machines

    Having that box ticked per default is a way of limiting MY freedom of choice! I can do it myself while searching if I choose/want. I can't see "the benefits" of this. So far the only thing I have seen is a huge drop in sales... Lots of stores are now totally invisible on MP so what's the point of being there? If we are now "limited"? We were gacha resellers because it was perfectly legit, gachas were banned, yes but there are now NEW machines and the items are still limited... We spent an uncountable number of hours making listings let alone all the money we put in there to end up like this?

    Boopies #14 - Crabby - Decor (only) it's the one for the Flower Hunt so still no sight of #5 and what about #13? I wonder if it will be another #5 saga...
