It's totally fine! Even if you hadn't, I probably would have posted a little 'vent' post about it myself cause its hard not to be aware of it all eh c':

I didn't even know about the feedback thread until just now even, I'm not going to post there, I don't think I can say anything that will really please everyone and I don't want to keep up the discussion since I don't feel this really is about me specifically, its about the auctions in general.

If it would be easy to please everyone, the world would be such a nice place!

Where do we stopped at the Batman topic?

Yeah, the world needs a magic 'fix it' button to press and then poof the perfect solution to make everyone happy would pop up c':

I'm a fan of Batman, but only certain versions.
The shallow macho Batman that's all about beating up bad guys is not my thing, but there are really good versions of Batman that are well written with a more true to character depiction. I suppose its like that for a lot of different characters and media.

Heath Ledger made for a very good Joker, and that particular film is definitely one of my favourites c:

Yes, Heath Ledger is by far the best joker. He was an amazing actor. :qh:

Jack Nickolson was good too, he was clowny joker.
Heath Ledger was more a psycho Joker.

And Jared Leto was a.... Ummm....sexy crazy Joker?
I dunno he was weird in my opinion.

Jared Leto was definitely sexy as Joker. I just think Heath did the best job portraying the darkest sides of Joker. :mchappy:

On a side note, anyone know user ReaperOfSins? Apparently they unfriended and blocked me and I'm not too sure why ... very curious!!! :mcheh:

Sorry I dont know reaper.

In the movie Suicide Squad they also showed the relationship of Harley and Joker pretty romantic, but it wasnt soo romantic, more brute and evil.

Maybe I will post my Joker Avi I made once, he turned out really good.

@Popodoki kind of shocked that people would actually pm you about the auction. I think the amount that you're spending shows that you think it's worth that amount and that you're willing to do what it takes to get what you want. That, to me, means that you definitely deserve the knuffel. On another note, i'm just curious how you managed to get so many fp? I knew people had a lot but i didn't think it was possible to get sooo much :mcshock: I don't know if that's a too much of a personal question, like asking someone irl about their money, you don't have to answer if you don't want to. Also, sorry if you didn't want to talk about drama anymore and i'm just unwantedly continuing the convo :mcblush: You just seem so kind, it makes no sense to me that people would be upset at you



@ToxicFirefly I seriously can't get over just how much I love your avi right now :mcshout: :mclove: soso beautiful

i'm not a big fan of Batman so I can't really comment but i'd like to see your Joker avi :mccute:

Show the Joker avatar please, don't leave us hanging here! ;P

It's perfectly fine, Ghost! I don't know if I can answer it perfectly though, but I think the center of it all is my long time being on kofk basically. I amassed a lot lot of items, and along with that I started selling a lot lot of items, often for prices near the lower end of the general price they would go for. I'm also a very patient person, so I often have no trouble at all in letting people have payment plans, or holding a list of items for them for weeks till they got the foodpoints to buy them from me.

This would get a lot of people interested in buying, and with an invo sale of over 1000 items it all adds up c':

The other point is that for a long while my funds would almost recycle haha, they'd find their way back to me! See I've always held a lot of big contests for art and writing, in which I'd give out millions of foodpoints as prizes. You can just check this subforum and notice a lot of the threads are mine >///>

It happened quite often that people who entered my contests, won 200-400k food and the like. Those people would often have their eye on some items I was selling in my invo sale, so it often went that people would win 200k, then go straight to my selling thread and offered me 200k for some items I was selling c'':

Almost troubling is that it kind of mirrors reality..riches stay with the rich. I've definitely found that once I broke the 1 mill line, my funds would really stay around that line for a long time. In the meantime I'd sell more items, hold more contests, etc

Also for a long time I was a user who bought all the TT sets, all the MT sets and such. I have to tell you that I haven't done that in what feels like years. I love love kofk, its my chatting haven. But I'm no longer here for the items and I haven't been for a long time. All my funds have literally been amassed for my pure desire to hold contests so I've really had this mindset of selling to get food for contests and nothing else. And then Firn started showing these adorable unicorn knuffles and I wanted them.

When the first unique knuffle appeared I had up to 7mill in foodpoints and over 70fc.

Super sad to say and probably hard to read is; what's 1 mill when you have 7, and you literally don't spend any food on anything else?
