Time for me to actually post... :D.....

Both of Neggy's suggestions seems to be bad for the economy of the Game... and Naturally what Rukna has suggested has always been a valued point, but was left hanging so I have a couple suggestion....
For those who dont know what that prior suggestion by Rukna was... it involved knowing by way of stats or some other medium... which players it was exactly thats were buying credit and thus gaing a what we like to view as a perceptably "unfair" advantage in the game.....

Suggestions then...

1. Limit the amount of credita able to be boust per round to the 1600 or so that it takes to get the rounds full upgrades, wiht a bit of erm extra spendig money if you will also included.... so round that off to 2000.....

2. ( Professor is obviously avoiding this option, since it is ba for the expense an d upkeep of the game). Eliminate the BUYing of credits alltogether.... but leave the current market system in place... where credits would simple be the median currency of translation between the different value worths that the SL communtiy has placed on each resource... which Ive always felt would better mimmic a real wrold market as the prices would then truly be what SL communty values the recs at based on cuurent SL isues... clan battkes etc... than the curent system which is greatly affected by the RL International market and the current financial standing of the player buying the creds.....


So proff you have 3 options to consider..... Rukna prior option and the 2 I have presented... maybe you should hold poles about those.... since I tend to agree in terms of what you said about Negs suggestion being bad for the erm overall anf futer SL economy....

actually, what's the point to punch someone's lights out, if they're gonna cash in a few bucks and'll have a new HW in a matter of hours...

plus when converting lith money to dollars - the credits are 3 times more expensive for us than for you

i think we should just have a stats page players by credits bought (doesnt say number bought as everyone has right to privacy)

so we could call those people "cheaters" as neggy seems to be making it out to be

Ooooohhh. Yeah we should go to lith currency then. That way we can buy 3 times as many credits for the same price. :] ;)

I'm guessing that the reason for that is that the expenses for SL are in dollars. :shrug:

not cheaters, I never called them cheaters just abusers like killing ships, hmm dogg does have a bad history of abusing parts of the game kind of like AD but we jumped all over him when he did it and now we all must let dogg slide because he is god. dogg is our savior. Savior my A$$.

No dont worry about it Mom, people fail to realize that Prof has 200k points just for holding recs. But you know what, what does it matter, till I start taking your HWs, then we will hear the complaining. So relax MoM dont argue next round we will buy masses of troops.

So yeah.... I was readin throuhg the other topic and I noticed that the 3 suggestion that I made are recurrent over and over again...... I also noticed one thing... taht people seemed to be forgetting that I noticed a long time ago.....

*this is based on what Ive deduced.... any fault found feel free to point them out....

The Gme consumes Credits...... this is not practical and does not mimic a real market.... when you buy upgrades.. that money does not go to the market..... is just evapourates..... if the money (credits) were to go to the market.... it would then allow the market to buy recs from player and pay the players credit instanly... kinda like the bank does... and if the market were to go broke then itt would still be a medium for players to post their offers to others who currently hold credits... and when ever upgrades are bought... well then voila... the markets back in biz... however it should be that the market only buys at the base or min prices... which used to be at 50 which I thought was resonable... but erm I dunno maybe it should be 40 then.... like I said.....the market is tainted... it is very much influenced by the RL WorldMarket... as Laurizz once again pointed out... and as Im now pointing out... it seems to er... Eat money.....:S.....
I belive these problems will continue to recur until the err "conflicts of interest" are addressed....

I don't really understand all the fuss, I've bought plenty of credits in my time and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I don't consider myself to be a cheat or to be gaining an unfair advantage.

Come on, you just have to look at the stats, I haven't been up in the top 10 or so at the end of a round for ages now.

You always used to be able to buy credits from when the game first started, some people did, some didn't.

The two big differences are that you never used to be able to sell resources for credits and you could give credits to other players (I believe you can only give credits to other clan memebers now)
