Regarding the Season End mechanic... I'm sure you guys have looked at it but consider something to avoid the spikes in rental prices during the last few days of the season? It's been happening again this season with last-minute cancellations of rentals and mass increases in price as card owners take advantage of the Season End mechanic.
Honestly, I'm not too sure what CAN be done, but it is something that's been bothering me (and other players) over the past few seasons.
Regardless, the sustainability aspect of the changes should be well-received. I think most players understand that to really play to earn, one has to grind their way through Bronze before seeing real earnings (in the form of DEC).
Thanks a bunch guys.
Hmm, maybe some sort of penalty for cancelling a rental early towards the end of the season?
I rent out a few cards myself. I don't adjust the prices because I'm inherently lazy, but honestly, the demand for rentals in the last couple of days of a season seems insatiable... it's so high that, yeah, as you said, I'm not sure much can be done that doesn't accidentally affect the rest of the season (ie, people might keep their rental prices super high just to cash in for end of season).
Rental contracts are 24 hours. If a rental gets canceled after payment the payee still gets their contracted 24 hours. After paying, nothing over 24 hours is gntd. Personally I would like to see this changed to be more renter friendly. Add an option to lock a rental in for 3 days and another options for 7 days. Let the person who owns the card decide if they want to offer such options.
Nice, love the idea of a rental lock where both parties agree to remain for the duration.
god, yes. we need this. so people don't abuse the rent cancel at the last day to charge extra.
no they dont, they are more than happy about how the rental market works
Says the guy who owns about $2.6K worth of cards and is only renting out 3 of them 🤣
You're out of touch if you think players are happy that their expected Season rewards don't get fulfilled because card owners decide to cancel their rentals. And if they do want to keep those rewards, be prepared to pay 2-3X more in rental per card even for a level 1.
It's literally taking advantage of new players.
emm, I own more than 2.6k worth of cards and I also rent more than 3 cards dude!! and btw by "they" I meant splinterlands devs and maveriks not the new players!!
New players are getting screwed constantly because aggro´s philosophy is that new players have to pay to old players to be able to play the same game, and to him thats totally fair
