The Economy?

  1. I hear all this "o yu gona ruinz zaecozomy Blah blah blahhh" I mean what the heck does that mean?!? If one guy sells diamonds for 20r a piece, that WONT ruin the economy, in fact the only person losing money is that guy because the people that bought the diamonds will sell them for 50 rupees and make profit. Its one thing if half the people in the empire did it but its another when only 1 person does it. Once upon a time diamonds were 50% cheaper that means if anything the staff (giving us more free rupees) are causing inflation. Im not pointing fingers, im saying that the economy changes as peoples needs change. Less people need diamonds? Well the price goes up. More rupees circulating? Prices also go up. More items? Less price. Its simple supply and demand. Even rupees fall under the supply and demand rules. With more rupees for voting, more supply= more you can spend= higher prices.
    Thanks for reading!

  2. It is a semi-inside joke. Aikar does a ton to benefit the economy and he messed something up once so we just mess around with him. He takes it very lightly and most people know that he is the reason that these servers are great.
  3. What i mean the staff are inflating the economy is the new voting sites. 1000r is quite a lot.

  5. The Empire, where we blame our staff for not-so-real problems.
  6. The point of this thread is to explain that people should shop raging over things that will "ruin the economy" (quotes)

  8. Stop talking about the Economy!!! YOU'RE RUINING ITTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. My thinking was that the seellers would have to charge more to get the same amount of money, but it could go both ways.

  11. Its true how people milk the fact Aikar 'ruined' the economy, but i dont think people actually understand what they are talking about. Anyone can use fancy words to show whats 'happening' in the economy.

  12. Is this about the economy, or is it about you being ridiculed for selling diamonds for 20r at some point? Or maybe you just want more diamonds. I sure do. Whatever, you have made some interesting points. :)

  15. I've always wondered, what happens if the economy really does crash in EMC? Or has it already? Aikar...................

  16. This is my 2 cents... if one day diamonds are 50r and 5 days later they are 55r then that means a ton of people voted or bought rupees and there is more to circulate so prices of every item go up.

  17. I have to admit stuff...

    I ruined the economy for more than a year.

    Finally diamonds have gone back to 55r, how they were a year ago.

    A year ago I kinda participated in a diamond dupe (I wasn't doing anything against the rules, I was buying from the dupers without knowing) and sold diamonds for 40r. That then brought the price down to 45r since everyone was being flooded with 40r diamonds.

    (btw I sold a LOT of diamonds)
