If anyone on GC:RT has taken a look at the market recently, it`s flooded with minerals posted at 1000 credits each. Although this is helping the GC market greatly, I would suggest toning down the prices a bit. Not that I can`t afford the minerals, just that I think GC should be put back into its `original` state (back in 04). In the old times, the minerals sold for around 750 each, this way it will both sell faster and it will (maybe) attract more vets to come back (works the same way with newbies). Just a suggestion.
I`m done, let`s hear your criticisms. |

99+ day(s) ago | i don`t see anything here constructive. do you see something that hasn`t been said xxx times in the last year ?
- there are hoarders
- there is no mineral on market
- admin use kalzul to fill market
- stephen won`t make update
A TRUELLY CONSTRUCTIVE THING WOULD BE TO BRING STEPHEN BACK ON GC AND MAKE HIM PLAY IT FOR A WHILE... just so that he see the situation |

99+ day(s) ago | Snakes u have been told month after month
if u have nothing constructive to say please keep quiet just like ur parents told u |
SnakeS
99+ day(s) ago | you know what ... you can speak about it for month and month .... but as stephen DOESN`T want to do anything for GC i think it`s a great loss of time.
Do as i do... go in newbie protection and come back every 15 days to keep your account active and to check for updates. When stephen will see noone play his game, either he`ll keep on letting it die, or he will update it... if not too busy / ill/ computer crash ..... |

99+ day(s) ago | Balial i made a post somewhere to where there is a buying limit like a selling Limit
250k Minerials every 5 mins of 15 post
we who sell are stuff can only do 15 post in 5 mins... so we can only sell off 1/15 of our stock at a time in one thing every 5 mins if we wanted to... that would help alot but most are to lazy & you want to know what i heard... that there was no need for it something like that... guess who said it to lol...
I think that is a problem that some of the richest & powerful Feds have power to control some of the Forum chatter... i think everything should have duoble review instead of just one person check it off as ANSWER or CLOSED
haha thats about it for me |
50CENT
99+ day(s) ago | did i say that? |
DarckKnight
99+ day(s) ago | well 50cent your playing guard, what do you expect to be swiming in cash and build up to 50 mill in the first week with them ?? |
50CENT
99+ day(s) ago | well im glad to see it what some of you dont get is that some empires such as new guards collective maru and the poor guys cant afford to buy minerals just anytime they happen to be posted and the few times we can buy them their not any there it took me 15 days to get about 200k of each mineral and in 3 hours of fighting i used half of them thats no good |

99+ day(s) ago | Zenith, by your logic, the mineral situation would have ended a long long time ago, before the mineral bot was ever put in. Instead it just declined and declined. Ifanything, The amrket looks at its most healthy when the KZ is posting, usually after a week, you cant even see the kalzul minerals for miners posting below max price.
why? Because the hoarders have had their fill.
There is enough minerals being produced to suport RT, but the last time i was miner during a drought, it was almost always the same 5 people buying, and they were buying way way more than any empire would use.
there are bigger problems to be addressed, some will need to wait till stephen gets around to the update, some hopefully sooner. But its not doing anyone any harm by its running, Mabye a 0.1% decrease in income to the richest race on the game
In response to Protoss, the reason the market is flooded so much is the Kalzul bot empire is generating them. As this bot isnt a player and isnt bound by the same rules, it only posts at maximum price, alowing A.Miners or anyone else to have as much say over the economics of the market as possible.

99+ day(s) ago | good miners always need.. + miner is an unique race.
tax miner produces large income and got enough minerals for their empier hence better then rest races`s. |
Zenith
99+ day(s) ago | Indeed. |
TheNamelesMaster
99+ day(s) ago | ya you wonder why GC/RT has problems cause of the Kalzul lol...
A.miner race for Minerials no longer needed in max production
lets all go to another race now we dont need A.miner... HEHE if all goes well ill be a guard in a few days lol... |
Zenith
99+ day(s) ago | We shouldn`t have Kalzul putting minerals around... defeats the purpose of the miners...
Just get rid of it, and see the virals complain about mineral shortages and switch to miners! |
Tauren
99+ day(s) ago | LOL.. i always post half price even though i am tax miner.. |
DraconianParadise
99+ day(s) ago | 1000 is low
You don;t want it shop somewhere else
if it helps i always post at 999$ so watch out =) |

99+ day(s) ago | the thing is, if everybody sells it at low prices, then only a few will be buying/reselling them, we can keep them capped by continuously selling minerals. So after 48 hours they`ll be forced to sell at 750 a pop. I understand that the GC community has gone pretty dark over the past 2 years, a lot of the good vets have left, and there aren`t anyone to set examples :( |
TheNamelesMaster
99+ day(s) ago | Protoss the rich will buy it cheap & sell for profit & so will all the A.miner too
i think they started killing the market with this thing in the first place cause then why have A.miner anymore... Kalzul is the perfect fix to the Minerial market... in fact why is there an A.miner race anymore its pointless except for Goods... |
