Had lots of success and fun on here in D2R with gamble packs some years ago. Essentially it would be a bunch of UNID rings, charms, etc and people would bid on the pack.

I'd like to gauge any potential interest for that kind of thing in PoE2. Right now I have half a tab of UNID jewels and could potentially start adding some more items (Tier 5 Expert etc)

Would anyone be into this kind of thing?

in theory, it sounds interesting :wub:

in practice, there might be problems when actually trading the stuff because ggg is very anal about jsp :unsure: it would be hard to do the normal trade interaction we do (imitating a normal trade etc etc), instead you might have to do the "bro" act (bro im quitting heres some gear for you bro i wanted to identify it all at once bro but my vacation is over so i cant play bro ty bro regars) :mellow:




might be some other issues that i dont see.i dont play so no idea :unsure:

That's a good point. Wonder if there's any kind of workaround. It sucks if GGG is actually that against JSP, considering they were D2 players from back in the day. I don't consider JSP to be real RMT. Literal in game spam to buy currency with real money is actually the problem, not JSP.

i dont consider jsp rmt either :blush: to me rmt is direct buying of items for money, i mean okay ppl might have different definitions but if i use fictive currency to me it doesnt feel rmtish :blush: although to be fair, i dont personally have anything against rmt or rmters either, im just against it because the damn ingame spambots annoy me :P

but yee, back when poe was starting ggg was like "yeeeah we dont really like jsp you know" but didnt do anything about it because most players used it. now they can go ham because most players dont use jsp



as for workarounds, i use the bro approach. i mean i use that when i trade as well, never been banned (well okay ive been banned multiple times, but never for that :mellow: ). basically this is how my usual trade chat looks like:

- broooo its me, ... (always use a non white name, something like alejandro/mutahar/deshawn are perfect), remember me? we used to play years ago
- ofc bro, hows it going?
- all good bro! listen bro, sorry we cant catch up, boss called me, seems my vacation is over. will be back in a month or so!
- sorry to hear that bro! hows the game going bro?
- all good bro, i made myself a whole tab of uniq jewels, now i dont wanna id them cause no time to use, feelsbadman
- damn bro
- bro, wanna try yourself? maybe ur lucky?
- ty bro, will do!

etc etc! then they literally cant do shit to you, theres no evidence that you did anything and if they actually ban you, just pm them something like "is this because im black" and complain about racism. im not even joking, i did this once (i pretended im gay and they said sorry and reversed their decision)

lol this is awesome

Do people normally use a fake/throwaway PoE account while doing JSP? Seems like that would still get tracked back to your main account no?

Pretended to be gay part I'm stealing for any future bans

Quote (Snyft2 @ Jan 15 2025 07:39pm)

who knows, might work :lol: !

although to be fair in that case it wasnt a ban :blush: i had a character named gaaay and they changed my name, was "offensive" i guess. so instead of complaining about freedom of speech (which wouldnt work), i pmed support with something like "listen im gay and this offends me greatly, i feel so underrepresented" in a polite but firm tone



they were sorry and reinstated the char immediately ^_^ i still have a screenshot of it but no idea where i put it :unsure:
