Mobile Layout

Posted by

ZJ (#1511) on Sep 29, 2013
Hello All,

We've had several users report to the hub they're can access only an unworkable mobile layout for Alacrity on their iPads, phones, and other tablets.

We have had users requesting a mobile layout for Alacrity for awhile, and finally have begun working on one. However it is in the middle of coding and is not fully working yet.

We are working on either finishing this coding asap or making an option to use the regular site or mobile site, so that everyone can play Alacrity.

Please bear with us while we fix this issue.

Yours,

USD Sales

USD Sales

It has come to our attention that users are selling non-existent items for USD. That is to say, they're stating in exchange for USD, they'll create or buy items or customs for you on Alacrity.

This is not allowable.

This is essentially selling bones for USD, just phrasing it differently, and this is against our General Rule 7. We also have found this to be unfair to the users with the USD. Bones can be purchased on double bone specials for 2 bones to 1 USD. Users are often selling bone purchase items for 1 bone to 1 USD. Furthermore there are extra perks to donating to Alacrity.

If you donate $5 USD to Alacrity, which is enough to make a 10 bone custom if you donated on a double bone special, you also get our monthly celestial item. By donating $35, you get a magical item, this month being the Magical Water Bowl.

Don't have Paypal? You can send money via mail to Alacrity to donate as well!

As always, if you have questions about donating, you can submit to the Admin Hub! We are here to help!

Yay!

Users are free to attempt to sell their accounts for USD so long as they're not selling bones along with it, or otherwise making a profit in real currency in exchange for bones. :)
That some players do that (sell or try to sell accounts for USD) doesn't have anything directly to do with this post, and isn't unfair. No one is required to purchase those accounts from them! After all, there are much easier ways to acquire an Alacrity account then by buying one from someone else. ;)

I have to agree. It isn't fair for a person like me, who's just joined a couple weeks ago, to actually play the game well because all I see are people overpricing simple objects for more than five bones. Then, on top of that, you have to pay one hundred real life bucks for someone's account, which doesn't make any sense to me either?
It's an account, guys. I've seen plenty of people selling theirs just for a handful of ALA cash, and they had all kinds of stuff on theirs, and they were happy starting over. It's as if most of the people on the site's forgotten the real worth of the site's currency, and how important bones are and the items that can be bought with them. Thanks so much for inforcing this, too, and I hope others learn from this. :3
