Thread: New on live today Unused vendor questions answered
It reads to me that you have 6 weeks of unuse before your vendor gets deleted, a lot better than the previously believed 2 weeks

umm... maybe I'm counting wrong...
14 days til the warning, then 14 more days til it's nuked -- that's 4 weeks. where does the other 2 weeks come in?
- If a vendor goes 14 days without having a new item placed for sale, or an item purchased, then the vendor gets flagged as Unused.
- If a vendor remains Unused for a 14 days, it becomes in danger of getting deleted. When this happens, the player will be sent an email warning.
- If the vendor continues to be unused for an additional 14 days, the vendor gets deleted.
So its 14 days then marked, 14 days of being marked then warning and finally 14 more days then deletion.

It seems to me they are doing this to get rid of storage vendors. The silly thing I don't get is that an item will expire in 4 weeks and if you re-list it, doesn't that count as a new sale? As long as you don't let things sit in stockroom for 2 weeks+ a vendor will never go away. If it is truly 6 weeks of inactivity, I think this is fine, and it should not have a negative impact on players.
Is re-listing an item a 'new' sale?Maybe you actually have to be adding new stock for it to count, thus storage vendors where nothing new is added will be affected.
Alternatively this could be seen as a method of getting abandoned vendors out of the game in 6 weeks instead of the 10 it would take waiting for them to become empty and be deleted.

Since we haven't yet had 6 weeks since the change, I'm not sure this is workingas they've stated.I'm readingposts about full vendors being deleted already.

This is how it Goes...
IF your vendour is UNused after 14 days....you get a "supposed" Warning that your vendour is in danger of being deleted....
IF NO one Buys from your vendour in the next 14 days...Your vendour and all it's contents on stock or in storage go...POOF.
The Devs have absolutely No Sympythy for Anyone that Masters Merchant as there is no grinding...ok here you go...the Devs way of thinking...
Dev # 1). "Let's Increase the amount of items that these suckers can have on their vendours...."
Dev #2). "Yes, and let's give them MORE Vendours to store stuff on...say 12 max!!!and 4000 tem limit..."
Dev #3). "And than when they think they are getting a GREAT Deal, we will make a Time limit..."
Dev #4). " Yes we will Tell them they have 14 days for this and 14 days for that..."
Dev #5). "And than since we don't really care about them though they pay for us to live..."
Dev #6). "We will laugh at them and listen to them moan and groan because we Deleted ALL of their stuff they worked so hard for..."
Dev #7). "Isn't it great that we have the Power to control them like Puppets..."
All the Devs together... "ROFLOL" As they /hi5 each other we continue to complain....
I say we submit all of our complaints on the Devs Forums. >/evilgrin Spam the hell out of them.
Looks like my alt is dropping Master merchant extremely soon.
Oh and about the warnings....My husbands Vendour was deleted WITH maintance on it and he got NO warning in an email at all, Nor a reimbursment for the thousands of credits he left on there and that was before this new NERF....so that not only makes the devs Jerks...but Liars as well....
You need a life :-)
Anyway : this feature is obviously meant to delete all remaining vendors from persons who have no skills. They can never put a new item on sale, so they'll get deleted.
And if your vendor doesn't sell anything in 6 weeks, well, then you don't need the vendor, do you ?

Well than so do YOU.
My Husband and I have been playing since the Game came out. It just kills me that People like you come on and Flame others that have Just as much Right to Voice OUR opinons as you do. We Pay Our Hard earned money just like everyone else for something that We Used to enjoy. No one has any buisness Flaming us because we have worked our tails off getting where we are, for the devs to turn around and say 'screw you, we have the power.'
It's people like you Yogol that ruin the game for others and put in your 'opinons' and flame others for theirs, just to make yourself look so much more important.
And for you to claim that it's meant for those that don't have the skill you need to re-read it.
My Vendours sell just fine...I can garentee that you will be pitching a hissy-fit little girl if something happens to someone you love in real life and you can't play and no one clicks your vendour and it all goes poof...Hmmmm ever think of that????
My husband had the skills for his vendour and they destroyed it with out any warning.
