[MC-150814] Bad reputation doesn't dissapear after trading several times

When I started to repopulate my village, I accidentally hit the villager I was taking to my village when trying to kill some zombies, after taking him to my village and then him gossiping, the prices on the trading menu were more expensive.

Understandable

But now, several in-game days, and after several trades with the villagers, all villagers still have their prices up, and they have never made them any lower, even after several gossips and trading with them several times, they still have more expensive prices.

It's quite annoying to be honest

How to reproduce:

Hit a villager

Wait for the villagers to gossip in the town center

You'll see that the prices of trades have increased because of you being bad

Trade with them several times

You'll see that after several days of trading the bad reputation isn't gone

The prices increasing after being hit is normal, but I have traded several times with them after that, and if I'm right that should make them reduce their prices because I'm being friendly with them, but it has been several ingame days and the bad reputation hasn't gone away.

Update: it seems like villagers you trade with before gossiping at the town center never increase their prices after gossiping and being told about your bad reputation.

Excuse me? I am reporting this as a bug

Bad reputation should go away after trading with the villagers, but for some reason that's not happening to me.

Could you please remove the "invalid" tag? Thanks

violine1101 2019-05-07T15:14:35Z

Please provide a more accurate description of the bug, if possible, with some steps to reproduce. From your ticket it sounded to me as if you were complaining about the villager increasing its prices after you hit it.

I have same issue as coogart. I brought villagers from default village generated in 1.13 and accidentally hit them on the way. Every child has increase in prices. Even if switch their profession or never trade with them when they grow up. I thought the prices will decrease but nothing is happening. Also, they have multiplied their prices by 2.5 so the prices are pretty much infected by same rate.

I've had negative rep. for several days now after killing some golems and villagers. For starters, the golems did not attack me when I attacked them or the villagers which seems like its' own bug. My reputation obviously went down for this, and trade prices rose. My reputation couldn't have been lower than -14 because at -15, iron golems spawned in the village will target the player, and the golems have not targeted me at all. The only way to raise reputation is to complete Master level trades with a villager (the last trades they offer when completely upgraded to a diamond badge). Each master level trade completed is supposed to make your reputation go up by +1. I've done over 15 of these trades and still have negative reputation, as the prices haven't corrected themselves. This is not a feature request or suggestion, it's a bug in the reputation system with villagers.

In my case, I was just transporting a villager from a 1.12 village in a boat (by land, as it was the fastest way to transport him, lol), and I had to defend him from some zombies, and I accidentally hit him, and after that, the spoiler decided to gossip that and my reputation hasn't raised since.

Just a couple days ago I accidentally hit him again, lol.

I am currently also experiencing this. Accidently hit a villager twice while they were in a boat and now the rep has spread and got so bad that Iron Golems are aggroing on me. I have tried making trades with villagers but the bad rep is spread too far.

Nicholas Rogoza 2019-05-24T19:41:56Z

Also to add to this I completed a raid with the village after this and still the bad reputation persisted.

Nicholas Rogoza 2019-05-26T22:25:39Z

I just spent about an hour in creative mode maxing out trades to try and fix this and am still getting attacked and negative rep.

Daniel Jennings 2019-06-04T20:46:59Z

Not only does the trades bug me but the fact that the iron golems won't stop attacking me. and it's not easy getting your stuff when six iron golems that will never stop hating you are guarding it

Nicholas Rogoza 2019-06-04T21:31:39Z

Yeah I have not found a way to fix my reputation, if someone does please reply. I have pretty much abandoned the village I worked on because of this. Hopefully this gets fixed.

Nicholas Rogoza 2019-06-20T05:41:43Z

Just cured two zombie villagers and introduced them into the village hope this helps fix the reputation.

Gossip should decay after some time in 1.14.3, see MC-154929.

Nikki Sheehan 2019-09-06T08:09:13Z

This is still happening on Bedrock Edition

Nightwind8887 2019-09-06T16:25:41Z

I'm pretty sure this has been fixed, as trades have now returned to normal prices

Nightwind8887 2019-09-06T16:26:32Z

Also Nikki, this is for the java edition, if you have that issue on bedrock then go report the bug in the bedrock section of this website

violine1101 2019-09-06T18:35:26Z

Please leave a comment on this ticket if the issue still occurs in 1.14.4 or above.

konkywonky 2019-12-03T17:01:17Z

I am still experiencing this issue on the latest pre-release for 1.15

Nightwind8887 2019-12-03T17:10:19Z

I'm pretty sure it was fixed a long time ago, it's just that it takes a lot of time for the bad reputation to go away.

Nightwind8887 2019-12-03T17:21:28Z

But it WAS fixed, my trades returned to normal ater some time, please mark as "fixed"

Matthew Murdock 2019-12-15T16:00:46Z

i'm playing in realms and getting the same thing, Hero of the village won't help fix the issue, nor does removing all the golems, trading, and disconnecting. Was anyone else playing in realms and getting this?
