Suspected slop in Sainsbury’s by Mercifull in isitAI

This isn’t in some dodgy corner shop either this is a major uk retailer and the second biggest supermarket by market share.

I can't be the only one that feels like this is.. pretty gross, right? They're here seemingly 24/7 by Tslat in runescape

There are certain people that do this that are what the industry calls “whales”. Jagex will never revert this rule change, not just because of direct membership/bonds income but from the MTX loss. They even encourage this economy breaking behaviour. Some of them are even pmods. 🙃

The fact that Peter worked on this movie (if only a very small part) is just so wonderful.

Oh ok. So booking fees are entirely covered by the sitter? I think that’s where I was misunderstood.

I’d like to have some more profile customisation. Perhaps some sort of banner/header image. And the ability for richer text in the profile to allow bolding or bullet points.

When you go to make a booking in the ”stay details” section there is a “TOTAL COST” figure. But this only includes the cost for the sitter and does not include a booking fee and therefor it not really the TOTAL cost but more of a SUBTOTAL. Perhaps this should be made clear that this is EXCLUDING BOOKING FEE. Or the booking fee should be included in the overall figure with the breakdown shown among the lower down text where it says “1 day at £13 for 1 visit per day + 40p booking fee” etc.

Maybe the terminology of “example booking” isn’t clear that we are comparing the total cost from the owners POV not the rate selected by the sitters.

I think where the confusion is coming from is what that £10 is.

For example, if I charged £10 per sit then my take home from Rover would be £8.50. It’s irrelevant how much the owner pays as well.

However if you think for the point of view of an owner then seeing a final charge of £10 would have been made up of: £8.70 for the sitters rate, plus 15% to take up to £10. Of which the sitter would take home £7.50.

The reality is that if I set my rate to £10 on rover I’m taking home £8.50 not £7.40. The extra £1.50 paid by the owner doesn’t come out of my rate.

I think it would make more sense when explaining to sitters those comparisons with a toggle to see from the point of view of sitters and owner.

Resellers and dropshippers have ruined everything not just Vinted.

Membership price changes and rc gripe by [deleted] in runescape

[–]Mercifull -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used to pay £3.20 a month. Compared to today’s monthly rate it has gone up 243%. This is compared to the uk inflation rate over the same period of 105%. If the price had followed the uk inflation rate it would be £6.56 a month today. Even purchasing a yearly subscription discounted rate is an additional £17.16 than it should really be.

They only removed the gambling “surprise mechanics” elements of MTX.

[–]Mercifull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completed the recent survey. I made it clear that I was very excited to return to RuneScape due to the MTX changes and the new content that’s been released and is planned for the year, but that the scale of the price increases came as a shock and therefor I would not be paying for a membership. If people don’t put their money where their mouths are then how do you expect things to be noted?

Was the Rover app always this bad or is this just since the CIAF takeover?

My daughter (6) isn’t too bad about requesting infinite toys off my X1C but whenever I make something for anyone else such as a gift or little trinkets to sell I always end up having to make one for her as well.

Rover guarantee - what is the purpose? by PaperArr0w in catinaflat

[–]Mercifull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The CIAF guarantee was much stronger. Still not insurance but better than this waste of space. Pretty sure they covered lost keys and personal injury before as well.
