Ribblez daycare

Post by jcheung »

Since there is a fairly limited way of getting these fluffy fellas, i was wondering if it would be possible to create a day-care of sorts for our fluffy friends... with some conditions.

1) single location
2) a fee per day, as well as any, ah, new ones are kept
3) all ribblez in ship are xfered out of ship at time of deposit
4) all ribblez are xfered out of daycare at time of withdrawal


though, the better question would be, would anyone use this enough to make it worth putting in? not that i have a clue on how much or little work this would take

I would. I had my rabble of ribbelz exterminated yesterday.

If not daycare, perhaps a cryogenically frozen ribbelz? Or just freeze-dried?

A schematic for... 1 ribbelz, some traylon gas, some biogenetic ore, and perhaps a couple sub-components?

And I would love to see a graphic of some annoyed ribbelz in a mummified state, and a label "add warm water and step back".

Ribblez are classified as pests not pets ;) .

we classify mice as both pets and pests (more widely pests)... spiders... snakes...

Unless I am missing out, Sven's is the only buyer of Ribblez. Entry level stock. Unless you like counting your pennies, hardly worth putting more effort into. Meant in a nice way, as I am level 40 and still try to extend my record. Perhaps adding a record of when you picked up your original Ribble would sate your competiveness!

these 'pennies' as you say, used to be freely tradeable items, sold in the player market, traded to fellow pilots, etc, etc...
they're so 'entry level' that they are now account locked...

Account locked to prevent people abusing the system, which many were doing.

As it is, I don't think Ribblez-farming was ever the intention, so I can't see much being added to encourage it ;)

I am a bit taken back, as I thought it was clear that the pennies referred to Svens stock. But, then again, I do not approach the game as seriously as an industrial farmer would. I will just stick to being a personal farmer. Somehow, it is appropriate that something as cute as Ribblez are protected. :|
