Ridiculous auctions for ridiculous prices.

I dont have to because youre the one making a positive claim that they are hacked.
You cant shift the burden of proof when youre the one making the positive claim

Oh are we going to play that game are we?
Well it's possible I do not have proof you do it for example.
But I do have proof that it's possible you want that proof?

lol just because YOU are all ticked off and mad about something doesn’t mean it’s unfair and everyone should be stopped from doing it...
It doesn't really matter if you don’t like villagers selling for hundreds of tickets; they do and will continue to. People can make those tickets totally legit, and you calling “unfair” on it sounds more like you’re jealous and just don’t want anyone having fun and making trades because you don’t like it or can’t afford the same. Maybe if you put in more effort you'd have more tickets too?

I have Audie I'm perfectly happy thanks. :)
I paid 0 for her. I just want people to be warned to not buy tickets on ebay.
Also I would like people to be warned that the items could be obtained in a illigal way.

This is all.
 
I think trying to have the mods to announce not to buy from ebay sites could backfire. I feel like not many people know that it's a thing that's happening on the forums and if they were to make an announcement about it, people may actually be tempted to purchase from it if they know it's possible. (I didn't know it was a thing until recently when I saw someone post about it and I think it's crazy people are actually willing to spend x amount of $$$ on nook tickets, and I just found out from this thread that it's apparently possible to generate fake tickets??? I hope Nintendo finds a way to make it so they can't do that or something!)

There's really no easy solution where innocent users won't get punished if they were actually legit and just spending days and hours on the game. It's really crazy Raymond is selling for so much and I just hope they make it easier to get him either by releasing an amiibo of him asap or just making spawn rate easier ; v ;

Well I didn't know either it was possible to buy the tickets, but someone told me and she heard about it here on this site. So I guess it's spreading sooner or later.

As for generating fake tickets etc yes this is possible. I could homebrew my switch tomorrow and give myself unlimited nook miles, bells and register all DIY recipes. It's not fun to play like this but it can be done.

People at least need to know this. So they can make they're own choice wether or not to play along with such things.
 
Alright but can you proof that it is legit?

You have the theory you can trade and gain that many.
I have the theory people can use a save editor and gain that many that way.

We both lack proof but both do have a sound theory.
We all know its possible to hack a game. Thats not what I am saying.

What I am saying is that If I make 1000 Tickets selling hybrids and gold watering cans (which I have). Then, I obtain Raymond through my campsite and sell him for 1500 tickets. Then I have legitimately obtained 2500 tickets. What I am understanding is now I have to PROVE to everybody that my tickets are legit because a few people cant figure out how this is possible?

Its ridiculous to go around assuming that everybody with a large amount of tickets is a liar or a hacker. You should always assume they are legit until given enough proof to warrant a belief in the fact that the tickets are not legit.

Acording to your reasoning if I buy tickets of Ebay I can trust that they are legit because I have no proof that they aren't? You do realise there's no way to check if they are legit or not legit. Now I'm not calling you a hacker but I'm warning people for large trades with a lot of tickets. What they do is they're own thing I just told them it's possible they might not be legit.

Everyone can draw they're own conclusions.

Im not talking about Ebay. Please stay on topic.
Im referring to trading large quantities of tickets between other members on TBT.

Yeah it would be no problem if your goal here was just "warning" people.
Problem is your OP was insinuating you wanted high-ticket auctions stopped or restricted by asking what the "official stance" on it was and literally making the assertion that you didn't think "anyone can have that much tickets straight up legit." So.... You weren't sitting here just trying to put forth a wholesome warning. Would have been fine if you did, but you had to go and imply everyone with lots of tickets cheated. Which is not cool of you. Hence the backlash here.

Well I cannot warrant where they come from so I just have to asume they are legit? You know the world does not work that way.
Now I'm not out here to condemn you.

I myself would not like to do such transactions because one they are very sensitive to getting scammed. I mean to give 2.500 tickets you have to make a lot of trips you could just run off. And second of all I myself do not hold the believe one can amass them that quick.

In the meantime this is what I believe, my beliefs might be wrong but at least I can believe what I believe based on information I know. I feel that at least people should know about it.

Alright I just do not believe every ticket is legit. If you do a lot of trading to amass tickets. Let's say you sell a villager and get 1500 tickets or you do some trading around. Do you know if the tickets you receive are legit? You can't....

So if you have 2500 tickets that you didn't make of yourself you don't even know where they came from. This is why I think it's good to limit them. It's a question your free to argue against my point I'm free to stand by my point.

If a drug dealer sells drugs and obtains money, then buys groceries with it and I go to the same grocery store to buy groceries and I receive the same said money as my change. DOES THAT MEAN I SOLD THE DRUGS?

Even if the money is dirty, it doesnt matter because im not involved with the deal. I still would have obtained the money in a legitimate way.

Real life money is a lot different from currency in a game. Your very defensive. It's okay buddy. I'm gonna leave it for now I said my thoughts. Whatever happens next is not up to me. If you have 2500 tickets by trading I congratulate you, but you do not know where they come from so you cannot even proof yourself if they are legit or not.

I'm not saying it's a problem. But look at it like this.. I can offer 5000 nook tickets tomorrow no problem. All I need to do is fold a piece of alluminium and spoof my switch.

So if I have 1000+ tickets obtained by selling my hybrid flowers which I was traded for in 1-30 ticket increments, I should be skeptical of every one of these tickets that come into my possession? Like uh, not all large quantities of tickets were amassed by selling one high-price villager.

And then, if I choose to use my 1000+ tickets to purchase something, you want the next person to assume I cheated to get my 1000 tickets?

Economy is economy.
Doesn't matter where it came from if I cant prove either way if it is or isnt legit.
The only fact now would be one owner of the tickets obtained through legitimate means. :whistle: :sneaky:

What the person may or may have not done with the tickets prior to me obtaining them is none of my business.

Aight let's say I'll save edit my file and give myself 50 k nook tickets.
I give away 1000 nook tickets to 50 people on the forum.

Then it's all good? They got it legit by me giving it to them.

You just admitted to hacking the tickets, so no.....

But they got it legit and that's what counts. I'll ask a hybrid for it. They give it to me boom, legit. They worked for it.

I hope your seeing that I'm not against you because if people were to do this the ticket price would drop and become worth nothing.

This is simple supply and demand. Not enough Raymonds for all of us. Prices skyrocket.
