Throwing Valja under the bus

Given that colls, guards and marauders have much reduced incomes, logically they shouldn`t be on the richest list...

Hmm, Virals, Terrans, and A-miners ARE the rich list right now :P Collective, Guardian, Marauder? Who`re those? :D

Why wouldn`t mineral miners buy minerals at max price?

I don`t want to wait forever to max out my minerals by digging :P

like yoshi said some dont and thoose that do make 1 or 2 types but obviously need all 6 to fight

Cause some A.Miners DONT make mineral...DUH!

what i really don`t understand is why A.Miners buy minerals at max price (1,000) ...

You promised me a bus. I want a bus.

I buy them sometimes, but right now my computer is so laggy, digging without losing turns it a pain :S Still doesn`t stop me from getting on the richest list though :P Even if I don`t have an income anything like yours Yoshi :P *grumbles at the wasted infra levels once more*

Throwing Valja under the bus that gotta hurt....lol

I was one of the big buyers
I also buy minerals just to keep you losers from getting them :P
(until someone asks me to post some lol)

so keltikelti... who was/were the big buyer/s for your 10k batches? :)

*is tempted to buy out the market now* :P
Still, I like the thought of the Black Market always being a permanent presence, yes, it makes it harder for say, a-miners to control the mineral market when technically there`s always minerals on the market, but except for we who are at max credits anyway (though hopefully none of us are at that point at the moment), how often are people going to buy Black Market minerals when they are twice the maximum price postable anyway? I know I wouldn`t want to buy it unless I was completely out of the minerals that I needed to build ships.

i just posted 10 mil of TM on the market ALL in posts of 10K ... thanks to Retribution it will all be bought up shortly.. he`s the one to blame for the fall of the economy

i myself was trying to keep minerals on the market by buying all the large posts and posting everything in smaller posts so everyone would have a chance to buy something.. not going to happen unless RETRIBUTION is dealt with

awwww... that`s nice... a "care"ing knight is hard to come by nowadays... :)

Everyone knows i`m a carebear.

well, TheBlackKnight/Raistilin, i`m glad that i can make you laugh... at least it showed the points that i`ve raised is getting your attention... and i`m glad that you`ve posted your replies coz it shows you "care"... coz you do have the choice of laughing and ignore it OR don`t open it up at all as long the thread is created by VALJA... but instead, you do "care" to reply... i`m glad for that... seriously... :)

however, as for me... it`s my bad that i`m not that "care"ing since towards some of the threads, i just couldn`t be bothered to post any reply at all coz it don`t concern me in the first place... especially players who wish to announce of changing race in the forum... since it doesn`t relate and concern to me directly, sadly i just ignore and couldn`t be bothered to post anything coz i don`t "care".... unless of course, the posters are good allies to me... :)

still... i`m glad that i made you laugh almost every other day... coz i hate to make others feel "sad".... ;)

We know you`re not the only one. You just always whine about it on the forums. Means we get to instigate it and read more posts like this which make us laugh. so i applaud you, for giving me a few minutes of laughter almost every other day :D

so... can we all agreed that on posts by Squaks, AccordEX or even Yoshi (maybe perhaps others in the future) that what Retribution tried to show, is that whenever the market dries, i`m not the only person should be blamed upon... even Retribution admitted why he`s buying out the minerals when he got the opportunity...

though as Retribution and me aren`t that close as he, himself mentioned in his PM to me but he made this thread coz felt that i`ve been unfairly being blamed for the ONLY culprit whenever the minerals market dries up... as for that, i salute him frm one SFGCian to another SFGCian...

and this is started when i suggested for BlackMarket to be brought back in another thread that i`ve closed it in archive...

in summary, i still propose and suggest for the BlackMarket to be brought back to cater the demand for minerals regardless for the players to keep it for fun or use it to fight... as long the resources are always there regardless the price...

as for this, regardless Maraudian`s decision to bring back or not, i consider it`s settled on my side since i`ve explained the reasons...

whoever is still wondering why this issue comes up again, please read the posts one by one and understand it first b4 write anything...

tq Retribution, tq all... cheers... :)
