RT Incentive Needed?

Any way we can promote some of the lesser used races on RT? Maybe buff them up a bit. I would like to propose we give Maru and collective a small food production buff? Any other ideas out there? We have almost only guards and virals left in the active ranks. Just a thought

Pete`s got the food issue pretty much. There needs to be another empire making 50% + of what I do, or the market will keep on like this. Anytime I go away for more than a day, or don`t use a lot of turns, the market empties.

On the other hand, anytime I spend reasonable amounts of time online I can drop food to 3. Right now I am not anywhere near consistent with my online time, and I don`t see that changing for the next month or so.

Someone else needs a big agri empire to really stabilize the market, or I need to lose my social life :P

DP: i think everyone is aware that it the food market goes up and down, and they are not discussing the fact that it does so, but rather the reasons for it.

This game is 10 years old. The food market is still fluctuating like a mad - probably worse than ever. People want to understand what causes this.

Gordos is mentioned and the fact that the game has two few players compared maximum production of a large agri empire. It means that few agri emires very easily dominate the market. With market that can contain food for 2 days the game become very reliant on having these people online, which you cant expect them to be everyday all year.

Listen up newbs

To those who have not seen and read posts like these a thousand times :-

1. The food situation fluctuates like this regularly, on a quarterly basis by my reckoning. Food goes up, a big food empire ( or more ) VM`s , people go to agri due to high prices and tax empires crying ( or restarting ) . Food goes down, we have an influx of food and not enough people to eat it ( as has happenned the last few months with food as low as 3$). People restart and go tax

REPEAT. The situation will resolve itself

2. The coding issue with Stephen as i understand, is that basically Stephen has the code... Admins cannot access and change what they do not have. Though they have done a great job with what they can do.

having said that it would be best to pose this question to an Admin...

That is all

I did not know that the admins couldn`t change the planet specs or the race modifiers, I figured since they can change upkeeps they could change those, that does create a tough situation
