DOB, flaming on MY posts is strictly forbidden... (uh oh.. here they come)
And true, being a CG miner is not profitable by any means. but seeing as how NO ONE makes them hardly at all... it makes the commerce income aspect of the Terran race somewhat useless as we can never amount to our greatest potential. Some have been resorting to agriculture and most switch to A. Miner or Collective just so they wouldnt worry about it.
And what happens is, the Collective and the Guardians make all the food while the Virals and the Miners enjoy cheap, plentiful buffets to feed their hungry, heavily taxed populations.
And the few Miners who actually post minerals (another less profitable means of credit generation), at least this ensures the ample supply of minerals. But, on occasion, the system takes over and posts minerals when there is a deficit, albeit at double the price. If this happens to CGs, could get bad in a hurry.
The Terrans are left out in the rain. Granted its a free account, but you have to start as this race when you are first signing up. And what other race depends on Terran for goods, mins, etc..? None.
Virals depend on collectives and guardians for food
Miners depend on Collectives and guardians for food
Collectives depend on Miners for minerals
Terrans depend on miners for minerals
Maru is Maru
Virals and Guardians depend on Miners for minerals
But what do Terrans produce that other races need?? Ships.... Ships for Viral fleets.
It is so useless!
