Hey how's it coming???

My oversite...

Many credits between players,
spent quickly,
credits became scarce now,
prices less than 1/2 of what they were at the beginning
this has lead to more players buying credits

Interesting ain't it

I think the only one who could say that more people are buying credits would be prof, as the stars for players who donate are a new addition. This month seems to be an exception, but for the last couple months, I would guess that the number of players who donated was down.

As for the rest of it, it's almost text book economics. Back when we had a minimum and maximum price on resources, it was very similar to government imposing price caps and subsidizing to maintain prices of goods from going to high or falling to low.

The price cap made an artificial shortage, and the minimum price created an over-supply of other resources.

"prices less than 1/2 of what they were at the beginning"

I believe this would only be true for E & T. others are at very similar prices.
