Rude People!!! Ugh!! So MADD!

edited June 2012 in Vent
Okay, so basically this is what happened:<br><br>I had a girl, let's call her Sally, message me asking me to make her some Dog Photos for her, but she said she couldn't pay 100k each, do I lowered the price to 30k to be nice. I was trying to be nice and help her out, but she messages me back saying(this is quoted):<br><br><span style="font-weight:bold"><span style="font-style:italic">That is WAY too much! How about 3k? And for my honesty, I will tell you the truth, but, please don't be sad or angry with me, please. I don't actually think your dog pics cost that much. I think they cost around 1k to 6k. Sorry. I'm being honest with you, please don't be sad or angry with me! Please! But, is 3k okay with you? I still have to pay 500k for each dog I want trained. I am almost out of money. I doubt I will even have enough to finish my lines! For that matter! :*(</span></span><br><br><br>This makes me so mad! My photos are NOT worth 1-6k! I have actually based my prices off of a large group of other players suggestions for my pricings! I am so ticked off because when I replied saying:<br><br><span style="font-weight:bold"><span style="font-style:italic"> 3k is not worth it. I take REAL Tim out of my REAL DAY to make these pictures for you. I based my prices off of other players suggestions and they all agree my graphics are worth 50k-150k. So I will not do the, for 3k each.</span></span><br><br>She decided to ignore me and leave me with this message:<br><br><span style="font-weight:bold"><span style="font-style:italic">Sorry, it was worth it. You were being rude to me! And I will just either find someone respectful to do them or I will do them myself! XD</span></span><br><br>I have had extreme issues with this player in the past, but this draws the line on rudeness! Has any one else Experianced a player like this? This is so frustrating!!!!! Ugh!!! I am so mad about this! Please someone talk to me!

  • Rude kinda goes hand in hand with being online. People can and do say things they wouldn't dare say in real life. I would put her on ignore and stop having anything to do with her if she causes you this much anguish.

  • I did put her on ignore, finally. I hate to be rude and do that, that is why i didn't in the past. -.-, bad mistake! Thanks for the advice though;)
  • I've dealt with a few people like this myself and like you I hate being rude and try to be as nice as I can and when that is returned with rudeness it irritates me ever further. Like Bama said above the best thing to do is just put them on ignore. Yeah maybe it seems rude to you to do that but look at it this way you were being nice, going out of your way to help another player by lowing your prices. This was returned with rudeness so the way I see it they deserve to be put on ignore. You can only be so nice when not given the respect you give out.
  • Yeah, I agree:) Thanks for thoes words of wisdom Para! Haha:) I just don't get why she would ask for them when she KNEW I would never lower them that low. Does it make sense for me to lower them by 99-94k? I don't think so! That just confuses me that she thought I would lower them that low:/
  • Some people are just like that, always looking for a hand out; to get something for nothing. Maybe they thought if they made you feel they weren't worth what you were asking you would give them to her. Some people are manipulative like that. Regardless of the reason I personally don't tolerate rudeness. I give respect where respect is due and if I don't receive it I don't give it. In the end you know what your graphics are worth and apparently they don't and just want something for nothing. Like you said they take real time and effort to make, if she can't understand that I wouldn't want my graphics on her dogs anyways.
  • Yeah, it just makes me mad that she said <span style="font-style:italic">I was the rude on.</span> but, I guess it is over now, I just felt like venting to see if anyone maybe had an experience with someone like that, or the same person, before.
  • I have had many people message me like that for many of my services. I often will take 50% off on my prices if I see that they can not pay, but sometimes people still complain.<br>I had one person message me saying something like that. She/He said "Well if you can not do it for MY price than I will just do it myself, I am better at them anyways!"<br>If you can do them better than me than why bother messaging me? Why ask me to take time out of MY day when you can just do it yourself?

    <br><br>I love this comment... since it's so annoying when people are like that, sometimes personally I will end up doing something myself rather than someone else doing it (even if i've previously asked them) but i either pay them or cancel before they start, since its only fair.<br><br>Cecctl2 they were clearly looking for a hand out, i've had someone before ask me to skill & stat max a dog for under 7K, and even then I was being far to generous with the price I was setting for them since I knew they didn't have much money. The best thing to do is put them on ignore, or just don't reply, i've said to someone before 'I won't do it for lower so you'll have to find someone else that will' and comments as such just because it annoys me when people are trying to go really low on pricing

  • I'm having this EXACT problem with a player as well. <br>My layout go for around 4million as an average, simple, layout. The more complicated, the higher the price. My price usually maxes out at 10million unless it's an auction. Plenty of people buy my layouts at my standard prices but I am fairly flexible depending on the situation. <br>A player has messaged me NUMEROUS times asking for a super cheap layout with really isn't worth my time or effort to make. When I tried to explain nicely why my layouts are priced the way they are and why I wouldn't do a layout for them, they went into a temper tantrum. <br>They left me alone for a while but today they messaged me again. Asking for the same thing. <br>It's frustrating, and this is the only major issue I've has with someone in my 6 years of being on VP.

    <br><br>Based on what I have read, I think we are talking about the same person. This just really angers me, haha:)

    <br><br>It seems like that to me as well.<br>I have also experienced another person who seemed to way younger than myself due to their spelling (He/she talked like this: "Hi! I saw yor pickters and I reellee want won. I can not afford two pay all of the munee that you are asking four butt I can pay like $200 four all 25 dogs and the banner and layout and whatever else I ask four.".) I could not understand what she/he was asking, so I simply asked he/she to repeat what they had asked, and the person threw a tantrum like a five year old. So I put them on ignore, then he/she asked his/her friend to message me about it. After I told the friend what I had experienced with the person, the friend started to cuss at me and pitch a tantrum as well.<br>Needless to say they BOTH got reported, what happened after that, I have no clue, but they are still on ignore lolz!

    <br><br><br>Haha, yeah, the person I delt with didn't know how to spell. So I asked her to re-send the message with correct spelling and she got extremely mad and I was like: "Wow, such a 2 year old." I did'nt send that, but I tought it!
  • Reading all this makes me shudder and thankful no one like that has really ever messaged me ... yet ... *runs and hides out of fear*<br>Seriously though I can't stand people like that
  • Yeah, it is in truth, extremely rude to do that to people. I wish I could ask the girl how she would feel if I told her her graphics were worth 3k, but sadly she ignored me!
