    These are not in order, but you can rate them 1 - 10 in the replies on how fact you think it makes money (1 least fast and 10 most fast)
    1 - Farming, if you make a big farm this can make money fast
    2 - Mining, this is based on luck and how much stuff you find
    3 - Trade Signs / Shops, if you have good prices people will buy more
    4 - Asking People If They Need Help, if someone needs help flattening some land or stuff like that help
    5 - Survival Games, good at pvp? This is a good way to rack up some cash
    6 - The Lottery, buy lots of tickets and hope you win
    7 - Selling Cords For Rare Stuff, a spawner for example
    8 - Voting, just click a few buttons and BOOM you have some easy money
    BEGGING NEVER HELPS!!! It just gives people a reason to ignore you
    Well, hope this helped! Plz give this a like and reply! :D

    Voting is very worth it. It's not all about the money, it supports ECC. It brings in new players as well!

    Voting is the fastest moneymaker on ecc. If it takes you :

    1 min : 120k per hour rate
    2 min: 60k per hour rate (my speed)
    5 min: 24k per hour rate.

    Even if you are slow at voting, it is still the fastest money on ecc.

    OFF TOPIC: Voting may seem to be a direct cash earning. However, there is more to that. By voting, the reputation of the server increases. With that, more players will be attracted to the reputed server. As a result, with more players, chances of 'scarce for resources' to happen is likely to be higher. Henceforth, increasing the prices in needed resources.

    With more players, the chances of finding people to work is higher too. This will then reduce the time consumed in looking for workers to completed a given task and definitely, time is money in ECC. However, there are definitely pros and cons in this (Everything has their individual advantages & disadvantages). It's just how we look at it.

    ON TOPIC: What type of farm is advisable to earn fast cash in ECC. Do enlighten me, thank you!

    With regards,
    Cyrus

    Melon farming is probably the most profitable as far as I know from what I've seen. There several problems with melon farming though. First, if you want it to be worth while you need a melon sword and that is going to cost you 300k-400k (I dont know why people pay more than 350k but they do). Having a melon sword is how i imagine owning a ferrari is, you have to worry about it constantly. If it breaks, then that is a 300k mistake. Getting erepairs for it is risky. You are limited to trusted players unless you can do repairs yourself.

    For everyone else there's pumpkin farming. You can make about 15k an hour which is about what you'd make melon farming IF and only if you have fly with a fast internet connection. If you do not have fly you are limited to to about 7-8k an hour pumpkin farming.

    Please like if you've found this useful.

    Yeah i need to save up to buy a melon sword then use it to earn another 350k to buy EXTcommands+ so i can repair it... Or i could buy a pumpkin axe, save to get erepairing, then get melon sword. Either way i need to create a huge farm (i have room in my town for one, just need to buy resources to build it with and buy water placements.)

    On that note, anyone selling a pumpkin axe for 9k? I have the money (im at about 30k atm)

    kconahan nvm about that someone gave me a really good axe (not quite the 1k nstar one in the shop, though very close) for much less than a pumpkin axe would go for, and it works just as well for me. Plus they are my co-mayor and we were going to end up lending each other money anyway for an upcoming project, which includes us both becoming pres's with a 400x400 town each. Now all 30k of my money is his for a spawn portal, but then all his is mine..... And that means i basically got a free axe lolol!

    Out of those, farming is the best, though trade shops could be the best if you have the right location and know what you're doing.
