Buy to Sell process

Can anyone give me some information about Buy to sell process? It mean simultaneous good issue/good receipt.
Thank's
Giancarlo

First, turn off your caps lock. It is considered shouting and rude, and many will not even
look at your post.
Before you buy a used iPhone, you need to have the previous owner do these things:
Before Selling/Giving Away an iOS Device
Backup the device to iTunes or iCloud, if desired: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Off
Settings > FaceTime > Off
Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (this only unregisters and deletes it off the iPhone)
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
More Info... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661
(thanks to paulcb for the wording)
If you have purchased a used iPhone and the previous owner did not do those things, you must contact
him to get those items done.
If the previous owner does not prepare the iPhone correctly before you buy it, Activation Lock will
prevent restoring or activating the iPhone without the AppleID and passcode used to originally activate it.
There is no workaround for Activation Lock. Apple will not help you circumvent this security feature. There
is no support to give other than to be sure the iPhones you purchase used are prepared properly as above
before you pay for them.

Tea Buying and Blending Process mapping onto R/3

Can anybody help us in finding the right solution for the below mentioned business case for Tea Buying and Blending operation.
Required clarification
- Can SAP R/3 manage Tea Auction and Blending Process (very unique for Tea)
- Are there any third party solution integrated with R/3 available for this business case
- Is there anybody who has expertise in mapping Tea Buying and Blending Process to R/3
Background
Business - Tea Auction and Blending
Locations - 6 Buying Centers across India
- 1 Blending Unit
- 10 Packing Units
Overview
Teas are sold thru Auction Centers which are moved to the Blending Unit. Blending Unit does the blending operation and sends the blended tea to the packing units. Packing units carry out the packing operation and sells them to their distributors.
Buying Process
Teas are sold at the Auction center thru Tea Brokers. Auction centers offer teas / sells tea in a weekly cycle. Brokers provide the catalogue containing the characterstics of the tea offered in the Auction center with information on the Garden, Grade, quantity offered and the price. The teas offered by the brokers are tasted prior to deciding upon the lots to buy. Broker would submit the contract to the buyer post completion of the Auction as per the lots bought. Contract details are taken as Purchase and these teas are then transported to the Blending Unit.

I have configured kind of same process for Cheesse and Milk process........i think you can handle the Tea process same way.
First fi you don't know exactly how much you going to buy or buying is not in your hands but it is on Broker hands then use the Automatice PO creation inBcakground after GR done for this.
The Pricing oyu can define bu using different condition for grade.....and for blending process can be handle by PP using batch management
Hope this will help you

Contract of intent buy or sell? Contractor as a supplier or customer?

Hi
I am newbie to Projects.
We are implemeting oracle apps for One of Govenrment Client, Government of Gujarat(GOG).
Now GOG, Creates a Project P1 with two tasks Task1(Road Construction 5km) and Task2(Road Construction another 5km). This tasks are to be outsourced to two different contractors
Question
should we define contractor as a customer or supplier
should we create contract of type buy or sell.
Please respond asap as same affects our Go live Milestone.
Regards
Vimal K

Hi
I'm not sure I could understand the business requirement.
Let's assume GOG has contracted contractor AAA for 100,000 USD.
Over time, that contractor will raise invoices, and GOG, the customer, should pay the supplier invoices.
You are saying that GOG require deposit from the contractor, at the begining of the project. I assume this is a method of guaranty. My understanding is that customer will want to keep that deposit and reduce the amount he is paying to supplier, until the project is finished. Only then the customer will release the deposit and pay it back to the supplier.
The method of reducing payments on invoices and delaying it to future date is usually known as retention. However, Oracle does not support retention functionality for suppliers.

I want to get certified to work on macs and buy and sell and repair them.what should i do

i want to get certified to buy sell and repair macs what kind of certifiacation should i get anybody help

That is the stuff that USED to be hung off the developer site. It includes this program:

Apple Certified Macintosh Technician Certification
Apple Certified Macintosh Technician (ACMT) certification verifies the ability to perform basic troubleshooting and repair of both desktop and portable Macintosh systems, such as iMac and MacBook Pro. ACMT certification exams emphasize identifying and resolving common Mac OS X problems, and using Apple Service and Support products and practices to effectively repair Apple hardware.
Who Should Seek ACMT Certification?
ACMT certification is intended for technicians employed by an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) or Self Servicing Account (SSA), or for persons motivated to demonstrate their knowledge of technician-level service and support skills. For persons not employed by an AASP or SSA, attaining ACMT certification verifies skills and knowledge that may be sought by a prospective employer, such as an Apple Reseller or a self-servicing entity like a school system.
Please note that ACMT certification by itself does not authorize a technician to perform repairs on Apple products. Information on becoming authorized for servicing Apple products can be found at:apple.com/support/programs/

De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- Authorize or deauthorize your Mac or PC.

How to invoke processes viw Web Services

I am trying to test out how we can create/call processes from external programs via Web Services.
I have gone into Studio, I have created a Process called "Customer Call" in a "Process/Customer" Folder which has an id of "CustomerCall". Then I have gone to Process->Process Web Service from the Menu, and added an operation called "customerCall" set to "Process Creation" and Argument Set of "BeginIn". I have then Saved, Checked, Published and Deployed the Process. Then Launched the Workspace and have tested the process works in Hiper Workspace.
However I am unable to access the Process via a WSDL as the documentation suggests.
Following the documentation if I try
http://localhost:9000/fuegoServices/ws/Customer%20CallServiceListener?WSDL
any of the following, as suggested I get a page back with the following text, "HTTP/1.0 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR".
For fun I have also tried the following
http://localhost:9000/fuegoServices/ws/CustomerCallServiceListener?WSDL
http://localhost:9000/fuegoServices/ws/Customer/Customer%20CallServiceListener?WSDL
http://localhost:9000/fuegoServices/ws/Customer/CustomerCallServiceListener?WSDL
All with the same result!
Interestingly if I try
http://localhost:9000/fuegoServices/ws
I get back a page that says, "Web Services".
Have found the following on dev2dev forums, which seems to hint at another method, but this fails also.
http://forums.bea.com/bea/message.jspa?messageID=600044292&tstart=60
The only WSDL I seem to be able to get back is
http://pc009068:8585/workspace/webservices/ProcessService?WSDL
Which brings back the WSDL attached
Hope you can help, or find someone as the documentation seems very confused and possible out of date!

OWSM+ BPEL Asynch Process

Hi,
Need some inputs on " how to secure asynch BPEL Process using OWSM(10.1.3.0)"?
So far, I have created the server and the client agent - with simple log in the request and response pipeline(Server and Client).
Whenever the end asyn service is invoked; the OWSM logs the request and without waiting for the response from the end service , it creates an empty response message(as below)- for the server agent( The client agent does not show any response @ all).
Server Agent Reponse Pipeline log

Any help is apprecitated
Thanks,

Hi Edwin,
1.
i. Yes, I think I can get the required data from Task object, after it is updated.But I will need to update the Task object before sending request for complete task.
e.g.In the example of StockReviewSheet, if I need to save the info like, the Stock action buy or sell, entered by user in the input textfield, then I'll need to set that value to task variable.
Please confirm if correct.
ii.Secondly, there is some process, which initiated the task, waiting asynchronously for the task to complete. If we need to pass the response of the completed task (in the case of mentioned example, sell or buy AND number of shares entered by user, for a particular share) to the waiting process, then how to do it?
e.g.User1 submits the task(JSP1) and then later User2 completes the task(JSP2) with response as Yes or No
Then how the User1 will come to know of whether its Yes or No.As we have the values(Yes or No) in JSP2 (completeTask) but not in JSP1.
Above query (ii) is very important.Please help in this case.
iii. Also how this process waiting asynchronously(User1) is notified of task is complete?
2. Yes the IInstanceHandle API has the method to get the AuditTrail XML and related methods.
But the question is how to get instance of IInstanceHandle ?
We get IBPELProcessHandle isntance from IBPELDomainHandle and from the instance of IBPELProcessHandle we get array of IInstanceHandle objects. How to get the latest version of the IInstanceHandle from this array, as IInstanceHandle does not have any revisionTag related method to compare with and I do not have referenceID of the process to get IInstanceHandle directly.
Please mention the process in detail for getting reference of IInstanceHandle.
Thank You

Insignia + Best Buy = Frustrating

So... I'm deciding it's time to upgrade from my 3-year-old Phillips 42in 1080i plasma I bought at C-ircuit C-ity three years ago. TV has been a true champ! After lots of looking around and comparison shopping, Best Buy has looked like the ideal place due to prices, selection, etc.
I decide on the Insignia 46in 120MHz LCD. I figure it's a simple checkout, but take the offer up on 0% financing and go through the process. This is where the frustration begins... this TV was an open-box return, so needed to be run through a special open-box system that doesn't work right. After 1.5 hours of creating new open box tags, running through computers, trying to get things working to no success, I end up having to leave and am told it'll be held for me. I'm late for a meeting at work (was over my lunch break), and I walked out with no TV.
I return the next day after work. No one can find my TV that was being held. Eventually it turns up after about 45 minutes of running through different people. I try and purchase it, but someone messed up my credit app and had incorrect info. I wait in line at customer service and have to go through more time having it all corrected and billed.
Finally, I get to bring my new TV home. I open it up, but the remote that was with it is no longer there. There was no note that is was missing, and I was told at the time there was a remote with it. My Comcast remotes don't have a code for it, so I'm kinda stuck at the moment, and probably have to go purchase a remote and hope it has comparable functionality. I get it set up, and am expecting all of the rave quality of set that I was sold on ("this house brand is all LG parts! it's amazing, that's why we stand by it at Best Buy! Stay away from Vizio, that's a frankenstein, yada yada yada" rambles sales people I've talked to at BB).
The set itself isn't the most wonderful. Grainy picture even with 1080p PS3 inputs, insane ghosting on 1080i input, etc and different than I was led to understand at the store. But here's the worst part: it shuts itself off randomly. After doing research online, this is a common defect with many models of Insignia LCDs. I can't believe that Best Buy can sell something that has such a potential issue to erupt at any time. I'm glad that mine started only within two days of purchase. How honest is it to sell lines of TVs with known defects and not at least warn customers or acknowledge the issue?
I call support, now I have to take additional time out of my day to either have techs come out and replace parts in the TV that have the same potential issue since it's a design flaw, or haul my TV back with the risk that if anything seems to happen to it in transit, I lose my warrantee. Not only that, I have to go back and invest more time and frustration with Best Buy staff who can't seem to get anything right, and after all this will offer only a refund, another of the same defective TV, or have me pay them more money to get another brand, which had they told me I'd have these issues in the first place, I would have.
Thank you, Insignia and Best Buy! Good thing I didn't go to W-al-mart, then I wouldn't have had to deal with any sales people, dishonest sales pitches, or defective house brands, and have all this extra time in my life to enjoy said TV...

Well, combining the following factors leads me to believe a high probability. It's always subjective and anything's possible, but if any of the things are true below, then I think BB has some responsibility to own up to for the TV itself:
1. BB is supposed to gather information about returns (sales person said it was a customer return). There's a high chance that the buyer had the same issue I think.
2. BB should have tested for issues. Since this is a common/known defect in Insignia TVs (though not formally acknowledged by either company...), this should have been evaluated before selling to another customer. Truthfully, there should be a recall and a formal solution for this issue since it's a common defect in the design and not just a quality-control issue (ala a cracked screen, bad solder connection).
And really, the reason I went with TV is because I was told this was the most amazing TV on earth, was a rebranded LG with the same level of quality, and a nice TV through-and-through with no real differences to the others outside of specs. I'm okay with someone selling me something, as long as it's honest. in the retail industry, a company is responsible for it's representations, services, and products, not me.
Bottom line, had I just went in, picked it myself, quick five-minute credit-app and point-of-sale, and found out I made a bad choice, then shame on me. BB gets involved, gives me a lousy consumer experience, misrepresents a product, and sends me home with a defective TV not up to the representation they gave, then shame on them. And I understand not everyone will see it my way from a personal opinion and standpoint, but I believe I have some valid points.

Best Buy is a mess, or worse.

Best Buy is a mess, or worse. I just signed up for Amazon Prime. Here’s why:
I purchased a laptop that arrived with a non-functioning touchpad. I simply wanted to exchange this broken computer for a working model. Best Buy could not accomplish this, and showed some abysmal customer service in the process. I thought somebody at Best Buy should know. Below are the details.
I ordered an HP Envy Touchsmart Sleekbook with a 1TB HD and 8GB memory (SKU 9268057) on 1 January 2014 through BestBuy.com. The computer's specs were good and the price was great ($399), so I pulled the trigger on the purchase.
The computer arrived quickly and as promised, but after a 10-15 minutes of use, the touchpad “click” would stick down and the computer would be remain constantly left-clicking. In other words, the computer was not useable.
I visited the Best Buy store in Reston, VA (store 297) and showed the problem to the Geek Squad. They said the computer could be sent for repair (approximately 3 weeks), or I could exchange it for a new one. Opting for the exchange, I took the computer to the customer service counter. I was then told that the computer was an online only item and I would have to call 1-888-Best-Buy to exchange it.
Issue #1 – I bought the computer from Best Buy and wanted to exchange the computer at Best Buy. As a customer, I simply do not care if your internal inventory systems list an item as online only. If visiting Best Buy to exchange a Best Buy item, I expect my very basic request to be honored.
But fair enough, I understand. I called the number, navigated a horribly designed IVR, then waited on hold for 30 minutes. Apparently, I was transferred to Tech Support in error. Tech Support said I'd have to be transferred again and wait on hold again. I said that waiting another 30 minutes was unacceptable and asked that I be transferred directly to a person who could help. At this point, the person in Tech Support hung up on me.
Issue #2 – Despite my being courteous and polite on the phone, the inconvenience of my request caused this person in tech support to commit an indefensible disservice to a paying customer. I can think of few things in this world that surpass the rudeness, gall, and unprofessionalism of hanging up on a customer. How little training are these people receiving that they would hang up on anybody, much less a customer?
I called 1-888-Best-Buy again, waiting on hold for 30 minutes a second time. This person was more helpful. A shipping label was promptly emailed to me and I sent back the computer. A few days later, I noticed that my credit card was refunded for the computer, but this was extremely odd given that I wanted an exchange for the exact same computer.
Issue #4 – The Best Buy return forms need to be vastly clearer. A customer needs to be able to indicate that the product is being exchanged, not returned. I placed a handwritten note on the form, but apparently nobody at the return center bothered to read the note.
I called 1-888-Best-Buy a third time. This time, I spoke with a very nice lady who was (frankly and unfortunately) clueless. She said that since the money was back on my credit card, I could simply buy the computer again. I explained to her approximately a dozen times that I wanted an exchange and that if I repurchased the computer again, I would not receive the sale price because the computer was no longer on sale (I believe that the price was then $699). In other words, the failure of Best Buy to correctly process the exchange would cost me an extra $300 if I was to repurchase the computer. The customer service agent could not resolve the problem and then transferred me to a new person.
Issue #5 – From my first phone conversation with a customer service agent, I was given an RA number. Subsequently, I was told by everybody with whom I spoke that they could not look up my order or exchange via the RA number. Why does Best Buy give an RA number if it is subsequently useless? This is a giant waste of your customers’ time.
I explained the situation a second time to the new customer service representative. He understood the issue and was very helpful in resolving the issue. After a few minutes of investigating, he came back on the line and said that the computer was no longer available, but that he would complete the exchange with a like product (HP Envy with 1TB HD and 8GB memory). This resolution was exceptionally fair and met my expectations (the new computer had a price of $999, after all).
When this new computer arrived, I realized that it was similar but had some substantial and material differences. The keyboard is not backlit, the screen has very poor resolution (I’ve spent hours trying to resolve this issue to no avail), the touchpad is difficult to use and unresponsive, the monitor does not open beyond 90 degrees (Okay, maybe 95 degrees…but this makes the computer impossible to use on a desk, or more importantly, on a lap. Seriously, why would HP design a computer like this?? You have to stoop down to see the monitor because it simply does not open wide enough), and the laptop body is horribly designed with all of the weight on the back, leaving the computer constantly unbalanced and the touchscreen 50% useless). As I discovered, these differences all boiled down to a very small detail: The original HP I purchased was a Sleekbook, while the new laptop is not. One small word, one big difference.
I then went back to the Best Buy store in Reston, VA and explained the situation. My request was to exchange the HP Envy that I now possessed for the same model that I originally purchased (the HP Envy Sleekbook). The lady at the customer service desk said that she could not perform the exchange. Her rationale was that the exchange could not be made if the new computer would cost more than the original computer that I purchased. I explained that I was now in possession of a $999 computer and was wanting to leave the store with a $699 computer. This would net Bet Buy $200. Regardless of that fact, however, my request to her was very basic: I purchased an HP Envy Sleekbook, the first exchange did not work, and I still expected to receive an HP Envy Sleekbook. She then went to find her supervisor.
Issue #6 – Why can Best Buy employees not make a decision? Can Best Buy please empower somebody? Waiting around at the counter while employees search for a supervisor is unacceptable in 2014. If you need an example, visiting an Apple store would be hugely beneficial.
The supervisor, James {Removed per Forum Guidelines}, then arrived. I explained the situation a second time. James verified that the computer I originally purchased was indeed available at a nearby store. But, he would have to charge me an extra $300 for the exchange. Thinking that this was preposterous, I asked him to explain. He said that he could not verify the price that I originally paid on January 1st. Conveniently, I had a smartphone in my pocket and offered to show him the receipt from my purchase.
As I did with the first employee, I explained again my very simple request to exchange the HP Envy Sleekbook that I originally purchased for a functional version of the same. He said that this was impossible because I was shipped an HP Envy Sleekbook as an exchange. I explained that this like-item exchange was the decision of Best Buy and that I had no control over what I was shipped by Best Buy when they were choosing an equivalent product. Nonetheless, all of those facts notwithstanding, I was now in possession of a $999 product and wanted to exchange it for a $699 product. THIS WOULD NET BEST BUY $200! James {Remvoed per Forum Guidelines} was unwilling to hear any of this, said I would either have to either keep the HP Envy Sleekbook or pay $300 extra to leave the store with the computer that I originally purchased for $399. These were the options, take it or leave it.
Here’s the bottom line: Best Buy won mightily. Best Buy got its way. I did not. I admit it, Best Buy is the victor. Congratulations.
I could continue to fight for an exchange, but in Best Buy’s victory, the archaic process and automaton employees have worn me down. I’ve now given up. I’ll keep this sub-par, hardly useable computer. I’ll also hate it. I’ll also scorn Best Buy when I log on every morning and every evening.
I’m not without options, though. As a matter of fact, I’ve now joined Amazon Prime. The Amazon service is amazing and I encourage every Best Buy customer to do the same. You order heavily discounted products, you have the help of many customer reviews, and the products arrive at your door the next day. I’ve already spoken to Amazon’s customer service team, and the experience was first class. Since my Best Buy experience, I’ve already ordered an iPad and Nikon D3200 for my wife’s Valentine’s Day present.
Best Buy could have had these sales. James {Removed per Forum Guidelines} and the Reston store won the battle, though. The price of losing the battle is that I have to keep a $999 laptop. The price of the victory for Best Buy, though, is that a lifetime of sales will now be channeled through Amazon Prime.
I expect Best Buy to do nothing after receiving this note. But, my ideal resolution: Please have the manager of your Reston store, along with James {Removed per Forum Guidelines}, write me a letter of apology. It would be wonderful, and go a long way towards resolving the situation, if both the manager and James {Removed per Forum Guidelines} would acknowledge that when given the opportunity to do the right thing, they instead chose to hide behind inflexible and inappropriate company policy. When given the opportunity to surprise and delight a customer, they instead chose to not lift a finger to make things right. When given the opportunity to win a loyal customer, they instead chose the easy path that resulted in alienating a customer.
All customers have a choice. My choice is now Amazon Prime.

Hello cathacker,
Buying a new computer should be fun and exciting and not fraught with problems after the fact. I deeply regret the numerous obstacles to receiving a successful exchange for your defective machine and for any resulting inconvenience.
The problems that you encountered are not helpful or endearing in the remotest measure. Having to cope with an unprofessional telephone representative is not the least of the unfortunate circumstances you describe, and for that above all I offer you my own personal apology. There is never a circumstance where behavior of that kind is appropriate and you shouldn't have had to cope with it.
I was gratified to read that your subsequent call to arrange an exchange through BestBuy.com was successful and netted a comparable computer for the same financial outlay. I was disheartened to hear that, while the offer met your expectations, the hardware did not. I know that your objective was to exchange the substituted device when you revisited the Reston store, but were you offered a refund during your conversation?
In any case, it's clear that the Reston store and BestBuy.com created a disappointing situation for you with this purchase. Certainly, this was not our goal. While I understand your decision to pursue a relationship with one of our competitors, it remains my hope that you will one day give Best Buy another chance to win you over.
Please know that i'm grateful for your eloquent remarks and for taking the time to compose and present them, both here and on our Facebook page.
Sincerely,
John|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Trying to buy a game, but it keeps asking for billing info.

Hello, I recently tried to buy Napoleon: Total War, but cannot. I have enough money and my apple ID is valid but something is wrong. Every time I click on the buy button under the app, it asks me for my billing info, as per usual. Then it brings me to a screen with my billing info and everything is OK (yes, I selected no credit card). After I click 'OK' to the billing, it asks me if I would like to continue with my purchase, so I click 'buy', then the process repeats itself. It asks for my password, the billing info, and so on and so forth.
This was never happened before and is extremely frustrating. Not only is the app expensive but I can't even download it!
Please help.

How much credit do you have in your account? How much does the game cost? Is this in the US store? US store prices do not include local sales taxes. If you do not have enough in your account's balance to cover both the cost of the game and the local sales taxes that are added to the sale in the final steps of the purchase, the system will ask for a credit card to cover the remaining balance due on the sale.

I'm a pc tech, I go through computers like water buying and selling. Apple says I can only "deauthorize all computers" once a year. Over time, I've authorized the 5 that Apple allows, now I can't even authorize the one I'm currently using. WTH DO I DO????

I've had constant problems with syncing, I don't understand why Apple can't just make a simple interface where I can sync what's on my iPhone to a new computer, thereby creating a "library" of what I have on my phone already. Obviously, what I have on my phone is what the heck I want on my phone. I'm a pc tech, I go through several computers a year because I buy and sell and repair them. Apple won't let me "deauthorize" computers until NOVEMBER, and it won't let me "Authorize" the desktop I just built for myself. The new iPhone OS is about to debut, and I can't even sync this phone to my new computer or new itunes. THis is ridiculously complicated and frustrating as ****. If I didn't like the iPhone so much, I'd never bother with all this hassle. And Apple wonders why suddenly about 70% of the market now belongs to ANDROID users. What do I have to do, Call customer support to get my account straight???? TOTALLY disgusted with this whole thing.

iPhones are not, nor have they every been storage devices. They are merely mirrors of the content in the users iTunes library. As such, syncing is one way, computer to iDevice.

Learn to deauthorize them before taking them out of service. Sorry, but the scenario describe above is not "normal" and I cannot imagine any user buying a used computer from a so-called tech that he built for himself. If building computers for customers, build them for the customer and keep your data off of them.

Again, had the previous computers been de-authorized this would be a none issue. A call to iTunes Customer Support may provide a way around the one year limit on deauthorizing all computers.

No, it's not.

In that case, READ the User's Guide and educate yourself on how to use the device as designed. Or find a competent tech to explain it in a way that you can understand it.

Pets Game - No Buy "PADLOCK"

many pets players are happy with their owners and/or situation and banner up as "no buy" pets to avoid being taken out of these situations... the reasons are various but usually because good friends wish to stay together... there is currently no method a player can have limited and mutual agreed protection against other players who wish to split up these arrangements.. in the etiquette of the game buying a "no buy" pet is considered harassment A solution would be to put a "NO BUY PETS PADLOCK" on our pet pages to prevent these potential harassments / bullying... put a padlock icon.... open and closed... when a pet AND it's owner BOTH mutally agree and click on the lock icon then the pet becomes "unavailable" to sell and it's buy button is dimmed.... something along these lines would make a real difference in player satisfaction with the game... all other issues and contraversies aside... it would give players some limited control over their ownership and prevent pets game harassment... not only is it an easy thing to do... it is the RIGHT thing to do.. how hard is it to get tagged to pay any attention to our repeated request for this feature.. why is that? each pet would have a lil padlock icon.. or something similar... on it's page next to the pic somewhere... it has two positions... open and closed.... when it is open... that means that pet is AVAILABLE for sale.... period.... when it is closed... that means BOTH the owner and the pet have clicked on the icon to indicate the pet is LOCKED / UNAVAILABLE... it takes a MUTUAL agreement between both pet and owner to activate the NO BUY padlock... once activated... EITHER ONE of the owner - pet pair can UNLOCK the pet by clicking the icon again... two in agreement can lock it and it takes BOTH OWNER AND PET TO DO THAT... to deactivate the palock... it only takes ONE... EITHER the owner or the pet to unlock it.... the programming construct is far simpler than most any other feature on the pet page... it's a simple logical field insertion...
OWNER CLICKS THE PET PADLOCK *AND* THE OWNED PET CLICKS PADLOCK = TRUE = PET UNAVAILABLE... EITHER ONE OF THE OWNER *OR* PET DOES NOT / UNCHECKS PADLOCK = FALSE = PET AVAILABLE easiest thing in the world to do... easier than instant grits... we are talking minor minor stuff that a decent coder could knock out in a couple hours here ppl.... it would make a HUGE diff in the game... 1) no more puttin "no buy" in banners... so there is more room for other stuff 2) ppl can tell right away whether it's a for real "no buy" situation or something else 3) no more rewarding no buy snatchers to harass other pet players4) allows responsible player control over alternates 5) keeps profiles "married up" in a worry free environment 6) PREVENTS PETS GAME CYBER BULLYING 7) keeps newbs and stoopid people from making the worst play in the game 8) adds to the fame and fortune of boxing kitty as a problem solver ok.. forget 1-7... just do it for number 8 UPDATE 4/17 = i'm going to keep adding more thoughts to this thread as time passes... during the the time this thread has "under consideration" status... more thoughts for tagged and all to consider.... One of the best ways for Tagged to increase its revenues is to sell gold to it's users... gold that can be converted to pet cash... and help a player clean up mistakes or increase value and standing in the game... whether you are a pets game purist and think it a short cut or not... (same is true with other games where gold can be converted).... it is tagged's right as a business to conduct business as they see fit... and selling cyber gold is a money maker... it's just the way it is... So one might think Tagged would be interested in allowing users a way to increase the security of the profiles in which they could invest.... a player would almost CERTAINLY feel more CONFIDENT about purchasing gold and converting it to pet cash IF they had some way to know that his/her profile were protected by a NO BUY PADLOCK... as normally the case when a pet is bought in violation of no buy.. there results a lot of anger... frustration... and in most cases... a profile is abandonned or "DUMPED" in retaliation to the NO BUY VIOLATION... I for one have ZERO interest in buying gold to build a profile knowing i have ZERO chance to protect and preserve when i have it placed with a friend or a good owner... i am sure there are others who would INVEST MORE WITH GOLD AND DO SO WITH CONFIDENCE were we given something as simple as this modest level of protection... So not only is the NO BUY PETS PADLOCK a simple and easy mechanism to put in place... it would also end a lot of drama and needless hassles... close the window of opportunity for online harassment (we can block a user with privacy settings but not from buying our profiles in pets game... leaving that vulnerability open is like putting a screen door on a submarine)... AND it would be good for Tagged's profitablity by encouraging people to invest MORE in their profiles....(tagged can do this by BUILDING SECURITY AND VALUE into the profiles obviously) From any and all perspectives... the NO BUY PETS PADLOCK is a win for everyone Update 4-25-12 well it has happened to your old pal BK.... after being split up from my GF and pets game partner 8 times in the last 5 months... i've decided the ongoing hassle just isn't worth it and will be withdrawing my primary profile from the pets game... after playing pets daily going on 3 years... it will seem odd.... and sure i'm just a little player in the grand scheme of things.... maybe one has to be 100 times my value to gain anyone's attention to the NO BUY PADLOCK idea... i've no delusions there... and yet i wonder... how many other members of tugged have withdrawn / opted out / abandonned profiles due to a hostile take over?... in my case there is no doubt.. the person behind the chain pets and splitting up our married profiles has a long sad history on tagged for harassment, issuing threats and using pets game to intimidate... it's a shame that a friendly game can be abused by a few for such purposes.. this fellow has been deleted by tagged in the past and somehow always manages to get re-instated.... go figure if i were a tagged admin or a programmer and responsible for creating a fun and friendly environment for this SOCIAL networking game... it would be a high priority to build in simple safe guards that prevent online cyber bullying.... if i were a suit in tagged's management structure... i would look to find ways to increase profitability and drive a design the ENCOURAGES investment in member profiles... more visits, more ad hits, more gold sales, etc... the NO BUY PETS PADLOCK just makes good business sense from all perspectives.. you'd think business savvy execs would see this simple solution incorporated ASAP... if nothing else... the NO BUY PETS PADLOCK could also limit tagged's exposure to liability from being named co-defendant in any type of civil suit over cyber-bullying as a result of negligence... negligent means being aware that you've created a condition or environment that is conducive to unlawful or harmful activity, being aware that such coniditions exist and then failing to effect a rememdy... just FYI... new laws around this issue are being written every day... and if i were a big wheel at tagged... i'd be paying better attention and taking prompt action to limit this exposure to potential litigation.... especially since Pets Game is tagged's number one product Update 6-3-2012 i've read over some of the comments posted... and i do appreciate what ppl are saying even though they may not agree.... so i'll respectfully respond to a couple of them ... i think the two biggest objections to the padlock idea are as follows.... 1) one player wrote..."the object of the game is to buy and sell pets.. a padlock would be an impediment to that...."
response = if you as a pet or an owner do not wish to be or own "No Buy" pets... then the padlock would not change how you wish to play... it is an OPTION available to players that would require BOTH the owner and the pet's consent before the padlock is set... therefore if you do not wish to keep a pet then you simply do not set the padlock... same if you are an owned pet... other players can buy and sell as usual.... the padlock would only be activated by mutual consent... after those that wish do so activate the padlock... there still would be no shortage of good pets to buy and sell... simply having the option wouldn't change anyone's game except for people who buy "no buy" pets as a habit 2) another pets player wrote .. " I make it a point to buy "no buy" pets because i know they will be bought back and i make a quick profit".... response = i cannot caution new players enough against adopting this strategy... it may work sometimes but the odds are against you... many more times than not you will be stuck with an abandonned pet that will drain its cash and migrate to a different profile.. it's a good way to throw away your pet cash... true... there are no "official" rulles against buying a "no buy" pet and there is no mechanism in the game to prevent that..... however it is consdiered in the etiquette of the game to be a "hostile" action which violates the wishes of the pet and it's owner... it's a matter of respect... when a player snatches a "no buy" pet.. there is no obligation for the person to play or maintain that profile any longer... for this reason it is not the wisest of strategies to employ... the end result is usually making people mad / causing drama... snatching of no buy pets usually forces someone to abandon a profile that they have enjoyed and developed over time (years in some cases)... and it is a HUGE hassle for the NO BUY pet to move friends, other content, etc... not to mention that the profile loses wishers and position in other games they may be playing... snatching a "no buy" pet is the most disruptive play one can make in the game... it is received badly 99.9 percent of the time and will not make one many friends in the game that way... some commenters have said "i buy "nobuy" pets on purpose"... but in fairness what these commenters are NOT saying is they know it's an extremely risky manuever with really no genuine desire to OWN the pet they are buying... rather they are looking for quck profit from a buy back.... this is why our "nobuy" pets wind up in dumps and on pets with insulting pics and banners, etc..... the violators of "no buy" do so usually because they know it's a big risk, utterly disruptive and rarely keep the "no buy" pet onto their primary pet page..... worse yet and often... the buyer of a no buy pet begins a campaign of bullying and treats against the pet if it does not play, if the original owner does not buy back or otherwise get sold..... if this is not how harrassment in pets game is conducted then i don't know what is...
one thing that i'm hoping TAGGED and pets players will understand is that our pet is just part of the larger profile... we have worked not only to build our pet page but our status/ranking in other games as well... we have customized our profiles and put work into building friends lists and other content.... in other words... our profiles are VALUABLE to us and tagged should help us protect that which we value... when a player snatches a no buy pet.. sometimes years of work and development go down the drain in an instant... just two clicks by someone else can make a valuable profile worthless to it's owner... tagged should give us some way to prevent that kind of damage Update 6-11-12 i'm reading the comments and i appreciate the support.. if nothing else i hope this thread will educate others about the whole "NO BUY" concept.... there are lots of good reasons why a player would not want to have others take the pets from their page... sometimes it's a pet that is won in a key race... sometimes it's a "stacker"... sometimes and prolly most the time its a friend.... but if this thread can at least save botht the owners and buyers of "NO BUY" pets from some unnecessary drama... then i'll take what victory i can from keeping this convo going... and i'm not blasting or flaming any one for being honest and expressing their opinion... that is what makes the discussion more valuable and meaningful.... so please bear that in mind when you read thru comments... one other theme that runs thru the dissenting opinion...ppl are saying "ok.. if you don't want to be bought then instead of "no buy" .... you should just "opt out"... i can see where ppl think that all is fair game... and perhaps without official "rules" and a padlock mechanism... for the time being... opting out would be one way to tell other players "do not buy me"... right?... i get it.... however...i think the idea here is to ENCOURAGE ppl to play pets in a way that is fun and enjoyable... is it not better to bring people INTO the game rather than driving them OUT of the game?... buying a no buy pet tends to have the later effect...it causes people to leave the game or at least to abandon the jacked profile / pet... that's not what any of us want i don't think.. including tagged... on the other hand... i should mention in all of this... that if one takes the time to talk to ppl you see on the playground... make friends and enjoy a social networking game together... that IF YOU ASK b4 you buy... some NO BUY pets will be the best pets you'll own... most long time players would agree they just want some small degree of control... it's a good fit when the player and owner have a mutual desire to be in the arrangement... and yes... ppl do have to be raised which requires ppl to trade and flip pets... so here's a tip from your ole pal BK... make friends and ask first.... you'll find most pets players are a good lot for the most part... but about the fastest way i know to get on ppl's bad sides is to snatch their "no buy" pets without some previous arrangement... it's a social networking game most of all... play nice... be good company... that's the best advice i can give ya... UPDATE 6-13-12 was talking to a friend who does not play pets... she had opted out as many have suggested a player do... and yet even though she had opted out of pets game... as soon as she comes online then pets players buy her and flip her anyway... she has told me she has no interest in playing pets game ... finds it "distasteful" that ppl put values on others... and does not appreciate the hostility she's encountered from ppl that expect to her play pets game since they have bought her...... in other words.... opting out does not always work.... and ok... i explain to her that it is just a game... like trading baseball cards at one level and not take things personally... but here's an interesting angle on why we need the NO BUY PETS PADLOCK... i'm sure there are other members of tagged / hi5 who have no interest and would rather NOT be involved at all... another friend and posters here have commented about winning k pets and owning non-playing profiles which are bannered "no buy" and are set free from their owners once they have built enough pet cash to do so... these profiles are obviously ownerless... bannered no buy... there is no intent to maintain or play them as a normal profile... and yet other players still buy them and expect a response and the pet to be maintained so it will sell... therefore another option with the NO BUY PADLOCK would be if a pet is OWNERLESS for whatever reason.. either a set free has occured... an owner quits the game and ghosts... whatever... if a pet is ownerless then it could set the Padlock to lock it in as a "no buy"... any attempt to buy the pet/profile at that point would return a "Pet is unavailable for sale" condition...
this would make sure that members with no desire to play pets and that repsonsible players have a way to set a profile so that it cannot be "pulled" back into the game again... if you really consider all the reasons for the PADLOCK... i'm hoping everyone will see how useful this feature could be and benefit everyone UPDATE 6-14-2012 just had a lil thought to throw in here.... i see pet players all the time saying "i show up everyday... i play well and buy pets.. i have good numbers in value, cash and assets.... and still.. no one will buy and raise me".... right?... i wonder how many players like that would be helped if more established players were not required to re-invest all the profit in buiding their own profiles because as it is now... the only defense against being snatched by a "NO BUY" pet buyer is to raise your value to such an amount that it's prohibitive... and in some cases... even not then... the padlock would be one thing that allows ppl to concentrate on helping others up in the game rather than always having to play on the defense.... does that make sense?... FURTHER UPDATES AND EXPLORATION OF OP CAN BE FOUND IN THREAD COMMENTS due to size limitations in the TOPIC / OP ...Please read on and add your KUDO if you agree... thanks

I agree with this idea 100% Taggeds answer will be that buying pets is the purpose of the game, and no buy was created by the players not them. What they fail to take into consideration is that sexual harassment, threats, bullying is what has made many of us be no buys. The current game is more runs than it is pet buying, the ONLY reason to buy no buys is pure greed and harassment, and that wasn't the intent of the game either. JUST like they had to adjust and incorporate the key runs as part of the game, they need to listen to the players who choose to be no buy, and many spend large $s on their profiles, and give us a way to stay where we choose. There are surely enough pets who are not no buy, to keep the game going. The lock would drastically cut down on the fighting and amount of complaints that they get, there is no down side to giving us a pad lock.
