Is there any chance that we could have the market provide cg`s again when the big guys buy up the market and control it. I`m happy to pay 5$ for each CG.
This is for GC/RT that I`m asking for.
Many thanks |

Ur asking for freebie or someone else to do the work for you, thats plainly lazy & selfish on ur part.
Plus ur race is guard & its meant to be a hard race also
like EvilAbadayos said,"income is their downfall, their ships make up for it." |

They are a hard race...income is their downfall, their ships make up for it.
Get over it and lets not rehash this again (yes im tax miner so I know how handy they are, but dont need em, just like guard. They are nice yes, but not needed) |

99+ day(s) ago | Savage`s suggestion would certainly make it a little more attractive to be a Guard. That might help to rectify the "everybody`s a Viral" thing, if you see that as a problem.
(I do see it as a problem, since the game seems to function best as a complementary balance of different races, and gets out of balance when one race predominates) |

99+ day(s) ago | this will sound a lil uc-ish but...
maybe raise the price you sell CGs to your pop to 6 and make BM Cgs 5 credits each, ppl will be more likely to look @ market more often for $4 cgs.
although this will make every1 very rich and snotty due to the increased flow.
now that i think about it if cgs were in blackmarket any cgs miners would restart as tax so nvm i guess? |

99+ day(s) ago | agrees with FieryGallacticos should just put BM cg`s at 4 and forget about the extra charge |

99+ day(s) ago | This has already been hashed over...

as decided before it is NOT worth the bother. do the math and work it out..here I will even do it for you
Buy at 5
Sell at 5 to your pop
5 - 5 = 0 profit
now with Evanes point you make 5% for out of DP bonus, assuming you have no fleet. Even having some fleet will negate the bonus, so will only work for 10-20 minutesof the day when your sitting out of DP at base PR until a newbie hunter ither hits you for planets or enslaves you (assuming terran and miner for that one) and then LOOSE 5% of your income whilst in DP, meaning you loose moret han you started off with
CG`s just are not possible or worth it to be BM`able, thus admion cannot be bothered to do it. Thank them for it, they are saving you all from doing newbie mistakes and getting laughed at |

99+ day(s) ago | Evane , your out of dp profit bonus would only be valid if they had no defence at all , otherwise upkeep would negate it , its far easier to just say , theres No point in a BM CG market |

99+ day(s) ago | hmm. blackmarket cg`s at 4? |

99+ day(s) ago | starseeker is saying that you will make NO MONEY. ZERO. ZILCH. NO BENEFIT. (aside from Evane`s technicality) |
Evane
99+ day(s) ago | Actually, you can make a slight profit from cgs when buying them at $5. The out of DP bonus works on the money generated from the consumption of CGs as well. So if you`re out of DP each CG basically sells for $5.25. |

99+ day(s) ago | Don`t care. I can fight higher up the table then. That`s because I can make more money with than without. So I can hold a bigger fleet. Money is no object. If it was then I would be concerned that no-one is putting minerals on the market very often. But I pay 2k per mineral so why not 5$ per cg. |
starseeker
99+ day(s) ago | Why pay $5 for a CG when that is what your population buys them for. No benefit at all. It makes the money a wash. |
