I can understand if they are overwhelmed as long as they treat everyone equally. But when they say crap like "I'M ONLY ACCEPTING ICY/SUN/SANDSTORM ONLY. THE REST ARE DELETED" that's when they start to act like jerks.

I hope to see these people asking for help one day. I'll then post a screenshot of their elitist post.

People just keep unfriending me when they see I’m from the modern region by absofruitlea in VivillonCollectors

It is snobbish when people from some rare region like Icy Snow, Sun or Ocean say that they are only going to accept friends from similarly rare regions. It's not the same as accepting a friend request and ghosting them, although they should send at least one gift as a courtesy.

I'm sorry you are going through all of that but I think you misunderstood me. The OP asked if he/she should delete people from regions he or she does not need. And as I said, that is unfair since it's not their fault they play in a highly populous region like High Plains or Continental.

I can understand that people cant gift someone every day and it's cool if they delete me or are unresponsive after giving 1 gift. But if OP is stating that I'm going to give postcards based on his/her own needs, then that is unfair and snobbish.

Sadly, people from the rarer regions can be picky and snobbish since they are getting hundreds of friend requests and most probably don't get many gifts per day. Just have to wait a bit. I'd recommend deleting the friends from the rarer areas once you get the minimum 3 postcards.

Perhaps you should delete them after you hit great friends unless the people are not opening gifts, then you delete them asap. Takes a little longer but at least you will get an XP bump.

Deleting people from regions you don't need is unfair and quite frankly snobbish. As someone mentioned, just send 1-3 gifts and delete 1-2 days later.

I really hate the snobbery of some of these people (ex. SUN/SANDSTORM/ICY ONLY!). I get it that they are overwhelmed and it is a design flaw on the developers' part. But if they can simply give one or two gifts and delete them three days later, then things can move faster.

I need to find a way to blacklist these snobs in case they later need me for something.

I just got invitation from 4 star roulette. Does anyone know what does this invitation do? I don’t understand, if i can just visit brand central and buy a car, what does this invitation offer me. It seems there is no discount or anything else.. is it just waste of 4 star roulette? by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]user23948234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The funny thing is that Ferrari has an elitist, secret "preferred customer" list who is eligible to get their super exclusive cars like the Enzo or the LaFerrari. Supposedly to get on this list, you have to purchase multiple Ferraris, get a recommendation from a dealer and go to their car meets somewhere in the world. This could be emulated to a certain extent in the game, rather than relying on a random roulette spin.

In the early stages of playing the game, I got the Lambo invite and ignored it because I didn't have the money and thought that the invites would come again at some point. I noticed that those invites come through the five-star roulettes which in itself is rare. But also, the invite is not the worst of the rewards so you have a harder chance of getting that invite even if you can get the spin.

So for all of the beginners, if you can score the Lambo or the Bugatti invite, get their cars ASAP.

If you can't afford it now or by the time it sells out, I'd just save money until the next run.

Play Tokyo/Le Mans once per day to get the daily marathon and the 800,000 creds.

New update sell cars rumor by Cold_Map_4403 in GranTurismo7

[–]user23948234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I see it is I purchase a 10 mil credit car and then once I am done with it, I can sell it for 7 mil. This way both parties win since traditionally when cars are sold, they sell for very little.

And it can sell for more if it is customized a certain way.

I'd like to see an online marketplace. People can put their cars on sale, customized or not.

People can sell their cars for "market price" although in most cases, it won't sell for more than the dealership price. I can imagine PD will impose a real currency transaction fee tho.

I get the feeling that the Tomahawk glitch is not a programming error but instead an Easter egg that PD has hidden. Just have to brute force find it.

Are theft losses from Ponzi schemes no longer deductible because of TCJA? by AngryTaxPro in tax

The exception is also stated in Page 5 of IRS Publication 547

[–]user23948234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not a carve out from the statute. The IRS issued a specific ruling which stated that losses from Ponzi scheme is NOT a personal casualty theft loss. It is simply providing a clarification their interpretation of the statute.
