Someone explain this to me...

My big toon needs 8900 bux again, now how come when I don't need that many bux the bullions have no problem, yet when I need 8900 bux, literally half the toons near the elevator have NO reason to be there, I always ask "What brings you here?" they always answer with something like "I need to defeat some cashbots." or "I need more Cog Suit Parts." or "shrugs" and just recently "I need more Cog merits." from a toon who's tasks aren't even in the Brrrgh. I ask you, how come all of these toons insist on going with us when they have no reason to be there, and why do they always insist on bothering me, when I'm in need of bigger toons anyways? Please, don't try and say something like "Well you shouldn't be afraid of them, or not go with them." or "Just go with them" because that is not what I'm asking for.

Did you ever think that they might just need help to get tasks done. If you help them do theirs tasks esp if for cash suitand let them work some gags while in there then you can help them with the CCG.Maybe some of theses toons come or want to come join the CCG Vp or Cfo.. Isn't that what the CCG is all about??Now I am confused. Thought you guys were there to help??? A friend told me about you, am I wrong?

Squeaky, I know what you mean it is crazy and they will not leave, I once seen a 17laff there for about 4 hours just getting on and off. the only thing that I found that helps is to have two accounts and learn how to do the mint by yourself. sorry

Please, this isn't even about the CCG, the CCG is mainly about having others experience real VP's and CFO's, this is about bux. Normally I help them, but when I need 8900 bux and want to get it done as soon as possible, then taking 15 extra minutes in a bullion is not much of an option. Oh and, thank you for ignoring half my post, my last sentence said I just wanted an answer to the question, and the question was not "Am I supposed to help these people?" it was "Why do they do this to me when I least want it?" (that was paraphrased)

I know. There's always at least one noob there who's determined to get on the elevator, no matter how many warning they get from other players. They think that if they can defeat a penny pincher, they can defeat anything. Still, I know what's going through their mind. They like Tooontown alot and want to know what it's like in the mints. When I was a 30 laffer, I thought that Cog HQ was the coolest thing in the game (which it is), and I didn't want to wait. They think that having a 10 cashbot task gives them a right to be in a mint. After all, once you've seen a loan shark, are you ever going to have fun fighting short changes again?

I still agree with you though. I'm a number cruncher right now, and I always have to go through the 10 minute shuffle before I can get into a bullion. It's usually attributed to one low laffer who hops on the elevator at once whenever someone goes on, forcing them to hop off. Another thing, have you noticed that all the noobs are at the Bullion? When I was a 66 laffer and CBHQ had just come out, I couldn't resist checking it out, but I settled for a coin mint.

The only solution to your problem is to find a few other friends who need lots of mints, and run them in a small district, or set your sights a little lower. Just do a few mints each day, and don't try to get all your bucks in one day.

You are kidding right! And my 550O merits in the factory aren't important? I am laughing so hard right now I can't take it. What goes around, comes around!

Didn't you agree with some others when I complained about factory problems similar to this.. And, yes I want to get in and out as soon as possible too. But, NO I am bad for not wanting to spend forever in the factory while some let others, who BTW, are not even to DG, work their gags.

So, I say what you said to me "Go to a less busy district or go with friends"

??? I never said something like "These things aren't important." so where'd you pull that from? Oh and, FYI I never said you don't have the right to complain, I said you don't have the right to take the frustration of it out on the CCG. Judging by your post, I'd say you got me confused with someone else. I said "Go to a less busy district and go with friends" because you were taking frustration out on others, and on a group that wasn't even involved. Now, am I going to a group that wasn't involved and saying "Bring it on" to them? No, I am asking a forum that normally doesn't make so many assumptions and asking "Why do these people do this?"

hmm...

My dear Squeaky,

I was wondering this myself today as I am also working on 8900 bux (got to love these invasions!). Fortunately, I was with sfs as I watched a 17, 23, 25 and 32 laffer load the elevator for the bullion mint. My sfs and I said "good luck" as they were all apparently friends. Wonder if they made it? lol.

Think you already know why they may do this....kids that don't know better, new toons, curious toons, toons that are testing the boundaries and griefers (just to name a few).

Why does it happen to you?? I think it is your charm! You are just lucky! :xmas16:

Your pal,
PTT

I know it's really annoying. This has become like the worst and hardest part: Getting in the elevator without any toons under 60 laffs who had nothing to do there. I get a lot of "I need more Cog Suit Parts". Then I usually say: "This isn't what you need" so they tell me that I stink. -.-"

Murphy's Law, Squeaky.

It totally stinks to have someone cause you grief at the bullion. We have all seen this behavior, it's nothing new. However, Squeaky, your signature states you have an uber toon with 25 laffs. I wonder if you ever caused grief for others when you built your uber. And, maybe, these griefers might be working on an uber. The bullion is the best place to get gag points where points are tripled.

Thumbs down WARNING - Sellbot VP Lobby

Bad shuffler - 15 laff blue horse, cold caller, always has no gags and only 1 laff out of the 15 at any time never has gags and even with really good teams he bails. I forgot the name I think it's loud clany k but Loud somthing K I am 100% sure.

Just thought I should warn you, I have seen him twice one today and once yesterday. He has no life and NEVER quits or gets bored. It is amaizing how a toon with only a level 1 throw and squirt can even have a cog suit! Some sad sfs probaly.

I'll post pics soon if you want

lol, I love him! I've seen him a couple of times aswell and it's really funny! As you said, always 1 laff and no gags. I always wonder what he is doing there and it's like everytime I see him everybody goes: I think it's too risky for you. I just think his major purpose is to make everyone go crazy.

Squeaky is smart enough to not take his uber to the the doors of the bullion in the busiest district where high toons need bucks.

I have expressed my opinion many many times about this subject. The bullion should be for toons needing bucks exclusively. If someone needs a gold tooth from RBs, loan sharks, or just cashbots, then there are 2 other mints that are great for that. There are 44 cogs in the bullion, no one wants to work some random toons gags when they need 8900 bucks! Leave the bullion to the high toons unless you have a group of friends.

Squeaky, sorry there is no direct answer to your question.
