This is what is said in the Private Trade Broker screen

The Trade Broker

NOTE: If you are initiating a trade, and trading your goods for Naquadah and THE TRADE IS ACCEPTED, or initiating a trade for your Naquadah, and THE TRADE EXPIRES, the Naquadah will be put into your bank - IF YOU HAVE ROOM!
If your bank is full, the amount is left 'in the open' (so if you have a full bank, it is advisable to be online at the time it is accepted/expired). If you cannot hold the Naquadah in your bank, and cannot accept this risk, do not initiate a trade where you are trading Naquadah.

This is the reality

My Bank Capacity 117,934,097,313 Naq
Total in my Bank at time the other player accepted broker 20,000,000,000
Received Naq through Broker system 30,500,000,000 giving a grand total still way below my bank capacity (ie total 50,500,000,000) and yet went in the open please fix this bug and quick.

I was online at the time so did not loose it, others have not been fortunately enough. I have discussed with trade partners ways around this until this is fixed but it is a lot of hassle.


I overall like the update and the principles of it, pratically speaking though this is a bug which needs fixing. I feel a button similar to that found after a rejected trade should be in place so that once deal complete you choose the timing it goes into the bank or into the open.

I do not like overbanking!!

To the Black Market (cash market)

Good: This helps the players that don't have SS, but have money, get resources easier. However, if they have money why don't they buy SS themselves? Confused

Bad: Right now this page is just taking up space. It's prices are way over the current market prices (see below). If you competed with the current prices in the Black Market then this would be a valuable tool for the average player. It would also encourage competition, which is usually good in an economy (real and virtual).

UU: .08cent(s) per k
Naq: .19cent per bil
AT: No Idea

Anyone have anything to add? Opinions? Comments?

I think you are spot on, a scam free, competetive way to trade. It would bring more money into the business and hopefully a bit of that would find its way back into the server.

i love the new black market...

although i think if admin want to make a little more money on game they will match or just get rates a little higher than what sum good players are selling at.

i cant see ppl buying at current rates, but certainly if they do similar to players rates then its a great secure way to buy resources for those who wish to...

me thinks admin will be rubbing hands togethor soon, but its only fair alot of ppl make money out of this and creators deserve it

The market is a joke at this point.

No increase in bank size from your market PPT

480 turns for 3.8 bill + naq....... A great way to attract new players, there's not a hope for 99% of new players to effectively grow or compete at those rates.

6 or 7 months ago it was 1k turns to 2bill naq, so now you get 25% of the turns (or less) for the same ammount of naq.

Whats the point in playing anymore,with most of the updates and the market castrating players it should be renamed to stargatepeace, or stargateletargic because the true war spirit is being restricted to those that can afford it only and not remaining available to "Every" player

makes it more interesting to play at least.... no more just banking everything.

its called inflation... people earn naq with uu. they earn iuu with up.. average farm goes up.

[obrecht]

I liked the market the way it was. I'm nt one of the biggest players, even. Maybe instead of crimping all the people that use it, just make it slightly easier for others to use. Perhaps the way you aquire the broking ability should be changed.
