Restocking: Younger or older account?
Wed Jan 25, 2006 7:16 pm
After sitting in my new account for days I finally realised I had access to my old account I created roughly 50+ months ago, and started thinking. For the longest I had lost both email and password and it wasn't until this very morning that I had even come near getting into it. The problem is, by now my new account is built up alot more than my old. Not to say I have lab or anything like that, as I don't, but it refers to a few trophies and avatars.
It's nothing I couldn't surpass, really. But still.
I seem to have an addiction on hopping from one new account to the other, and finally want to settle down. I guess it's an addiction to pets- I can never settle on a species, and can never settle on a colour. One minute I save for a white paint brush, the next a maraquan. It's just, random you know?.
All this isn't exactly helping my financial status either. Whether it's just my bad luck, my abilities or something else I'm not falling up to the point where I should be. I know I can do a heck of a lot more than I'm doing, and my profits are really low this time around. I personally watched my friend with the same connection as me make 5x my earnings in as half the time it takes for me to make them. Same computer type, same connection. Nothing different, so I look at myself to blame.
It hit me after trying to nab the "Faboo!" avatar one day that no R90+ items were showing up, and I took note of this for a few days. After that I found out there's an age limit that makes certain items "invisible" in restocking. Isn't it R90+ you have to be 1 month, or 5? I forget.
My older account would solve this typical matter easily, and would enable me to transfer some avatar pets back and forth too. The 4 month pound ban is annoying to say the least.
All in all, do older accounts REALLY have an advantage at restocking?. Should I go back to home sweet home or keep to my new account and get up there?. I'm afraid in the time it'll take for the site to fully open up to me, I'll loose interest and go on another addiction splurge and start the process all over again.
For those longterm restockers, or those that have started fresh, did you find earning to be difficult with this ban in effect until your account aged enough?. Is it overated, what?.
Edit: Just found out from someone that the following applies to accounts.
Under 1 month = Nothing over R80 will show.
Under 3 month = Nothing over R90 will show.
Over 4 month = No rules apply (Not confirmed.)

Well, that would explain a few things....

It does, and after reviewing the entire thing the edit was meant as a closure to this topic.
