But some people don't want exp prices to rise.

 

I don't see how making a lazy, easy to do market that can easily obtain EXP much of an improvement but meh.

 

It's not a easy to do market, and exp prices rising can increase prices in the enchanted tools market, as well as the mining market, mob drops market (if you guys keep breaking spawners), and, overall, any product that was obtained in some way by an enchanted tool (If Steve has a business selling apples for $1 and if that is the only way he makes money, then if he buys an eff. 4 axe the prices of his apples will rise so he can pay off the tool). Pumpkin axes, eff. 5/7/10 picks, and melon swords will skyrocket in price, making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Builders, Residents, and even some Mayors and Presidents will quit, leading to a drop of supply in the labor markets and causing the scarcity of goods low-rank users produced (they were paid to mine, farm, etc for some rich users). The housing market will fall because of a drop in demand for plots because of the severe lack of new users who need a place to stay. Towns will become worthless because there is less value due to the drop in profits, destroying the user-user town trade. And the market will stay like this for months, until new users decide to come back, which, I assure you, would not be for upwards of 4 months after the crash.

It's a domino effect guys. What you are doing could lead to the collapse of the server.

 

oh.......

 

Yes. Read my above post again if you do not believe me.

 

It won't...no..I...

 

that would suck....

 

The situation in which you just created is an absolute worst case kind of scenario, and Andrew would never allow something like that to happen.

 

Let's flip that coin.

Or....

We do nothing and the Xp market continues to fall and crash. Xp gets so low that people the market gets saturated with efficiency V etools. The price drops so low that everyone has them. Now it is cheaper to make an etool and prices for combos and erepairs drop as players try to squeak out a living. Players have tons of extra Xp and it becomes worthless. Builders can't sell it and everyone has Xp to spare. There becomes no market for etools, ebooks, or anything enchanted. Presidents and then Mayors start to quit as they feel there is no more challenge and everything has become to easy/pointless. With the decrease in players and the decrease in donations, Andrew has to cut back on the server support and the server takes a circling dive to obscurity. We drop off in rankings on the voting pages and fewer people join.

Less people, a half decent server, no donations. Is this the ECC you want? I say no! I say let there be a market for Xp! Let us find a balance so first day builders don't have everything and when they do get it, it actually feels like an accomplishment. Let's not make this a creative server. Let's take back the economy and show that players can regulate Xp! Let's destroy these spawners and make it so people actually put some time into hiding them! Obviously some will remain. The smart and strong will survive! Xp will become a thriving market and enchanted items something to strive for! The weak and feeble will do the farming and ask for jobs. There is a place for everyone!! But it begins with us doing our part! TAKE DOWN THOSE SPAWNERS!

 

I find this funny, because you dumped like 100k exp back into the economy recently, or I believe it was you.

 

LMAO. :oops: Yeah. :oops: I honestly had no idea that I, alone, could make that big of an impact. :p I honestly thought that what I did wouldn't be noticed in the grand scheme of things. I didn't realize how fragile the whole system really is. Believe me, I have learned my lesson that even I can affect things. A very eye opening experience to see the aftermath.

 

I think that every third 5k that I earn so every 15k I am gonna spend 5k on exp, and store it away for use on armor ect.

 

But with the only way to get exp being spawners, this is not a possibility due to the limited number of spawners.
And furthermore, I outright disagree with your second paragraph. Efficiency tools have been falling at marginal costs, but only because the value of the ecodollar itself is falling in a normal cycle. Come Rising, the recession will end, provided that you do not break spawners! You are contributing to the fall of this server and remain in denial! Your arguments are flawed: First day builders are reported to anly spend one hour on the server, and make, on average, less than $1000! Enchanted tools will never fall this far! They will only rise because of YOUR IGNORANCE AND DENIAL! YOU ARE SETTING ECOCITYCRAFT'S DEATH IN STONE. NO TO BREAKING SPAWNERS.

And how would he prevent this? By dumping thousands of dollars into the economy, causing the fall of the EcoDollar?

 

Okay, first of all. Melon swords are not affected by exp prices, but affect by nstar price, which is a completely different market, completely cut off from experience.

as for the rest.. wat..
You're quite a doomthinker. only a handful of people MAY quit because of this, but they're replaced by new users in an instant. And most of them come back after a week or two.
The rest of your "apocalypse" is just based on the assumption that enough people will quit to have an actual affect on the market. Well, I hate to bring it to you, but you're wrong. More people become frequent players than the amount of people who quit on a regular basis. The people who "quit" because the exp market crash will be replaced by other long-lasting members in no time.

 

Lol.

 

Sorry if I wasn't clear. Your rant was funny and flawed in so many areas, I thought you were being light-hearted and having fun. I was responding in kind. I do not actually think breaking or not breaking the spawners is going to bring the downfall of the server. If you were/are serious, then I apologize and have no response as I am trying to cut back on my negative criticism.

 

Of couse I wasn't serious! I was just waiting for someone to point out the many flaws my argument had. Thank you kukelekuuk00
