✪ Summary:

The Branch sales listings are a bit messy, aren't they? Depending on the item, sometimes it can make it a bit more tedious to get from items listed for Silver Beetles to items listed for Gold Beetles. A good number of items listed as "99999 SB" are listed by accounts that are listed as INACTIVE, which means that they can neither gather the funds from them, nor log in to remove them. In addition, many common items - such as carcasses - frequently clog up the listings with 99999 SB price listings.

Here's just a few examples.

Giant Tortioses


Lion Scrotums


Buffalo Scrotums


Yohimbe Barks


I probably don't need to post more examples. Now, while you might be able to just utilize this little diddy...



... sometimes you don't really know what things are currently selling for and that's what you're checking.

Regardless, this is less about "convenience" and more that there's no real reason for items that are either unpriced, or that are attached to inaccessible accounts to be listed, you know?

Also, sometimes folks forget to set prices, or dunno what they wanna set it to, and that's okay! The listings can be hidden until they do.


✪ What I Am Proposing:

[+] That Branch Listings by users whose accounts are currently listed as INACTIVE - either through being banned, requested to be "soft closed", or otherwise requiring re-activation codes - be HIDDEN or otherwise the items removed from listings and returned to the Hoard.

[+] In addition, Rabbity (#97323) raises a good point. With certain items available in game, it is possible for an item that sells normally for well over 100 GB to be bought for 99999 SB - roughly 84 GB - to be bought out for that kind of price if someone actually had that SB or was determined enough.

[+] Additionally, it would be more intuitive to make the default price set to zero SB and zero GB and not show up at all until a price is entered. This would completely eliminate inactive listings, and additionally would allow players to keep things on their branches until they're ready to price them, such as things chosen to be sold during certain months when prices are highest, and not be lost in "buried".

[+] Proposed by Terrinthia [G1] (#97101): Allow branch listings to be sorted with "Show SB Only" and "Show GB Only" options at the top of the page. Allow users to set prices for GB AND SB.

If you don't support, I'd like to know why. I appreciate constructive criticism over a simple "no".



This suggestion has 1401 supports and 9 NO supports.

As of 12.19.2022:
- 99999 SB listings persist. May be user-set.
- 9999999 SB listings have replaced the standard 'Price Not Set' listings.
- Going to these user shops will show the button is changed to 'Price Not Set'.
- Branch listing spam persists, now with a combination of 99999 SB and 999999 SB listings both present.

Almost four years and QoL issues persist, and no recode ETA. A lot of other QoL suggestions also remain ignored.

Doesn't help buyers but the auto fill for SB branches is now 999999999sb. Guess that's their way of fixing the problem for sellers?

Yeah, I have no idea why the hell they just added a second layer to the problem. It's like they read half of this and that's where it ended.

Sure seems like it. Honestly I wish stuff wasn't officially put on branches until it has a non-auto price. If could still be on a person's branch just not visible to everyone else.

That's what people keep hoping for, but it feels like we so rarely get Quality of Life improvements.

Proposed by Terrinthia [G1] (#97101): Allow branch listings to be sorted with "Show SB Only" and "Show GB Only" options at the top of the page. Allow users to set prices for GB AND SB.
