Heh, judging power based on rank is funny :lol:

I am currently rank 51. If I wanted to I could probably be top 20 next turn, or below 6,000. It really means nothing :)

excess goods do not exist, regardless of army size, way to ignore the post, ;) all this is is you want less sellers so prices rise again :p

as i said earlier, if you still have the option of purchasing up/weapons/spylevels (hint hint you will ALWAYS be able to buy more of these), then you have never generated a single excess naq or uu, not even sti has excess naq/uu :p

pwned.

Your argument is flawed .... taking only one of the meaning of "excess" and forcing that meaning to be the reference of your conclusion is stupid.

We do have excess goods .... and we are comparing ourselves with most of the players in this game. As I said before, if we were to sell everything we make you wont be able to compete with us in terms of prices .... no sane people can argue with that.

But we only sell what we consider excess (we are different people and each ones decide what excess is, so some sell more and some sell less, but in any case we are not selling everything we make) .... and people like you don't have excess goods.

I do belive that until you are over 40-45 mil army you shouldn't be alowed to sell for cash because you don't have excess goods compared with an average of good players.

indeed people should either be selling there accounts or be over certain armysizes...

for example the current caps... at 50 mill naq isn't much use for buying UU... so can be sold as excess without any problems...

after all people may not want covert 29,30 etc but cant buy UU so its excess they may already have a huge up climbing them above 50mill without problems...

armysize limits need to be put in place for selling excess (or at least posting on the forum threads for selling excess)

Why can't small players sell goods for currency??

saying they do not deserve it because they are smaller i find a load of bullcrap.
in the end it would only help the buyers since they would get more (numbers on a screen) for their money, and what's wrong with that.

the idea behind not letting small players sell for $ is because it isnt excess
someone with 10million army dosent have any excess
but someone with say 160million army, might have

If admin is not enforcing this, then it mustn't be such a problem of that you say it is.

I understand the excess talk. Its just that if one person can sell for $ then that means the entire server can sell for $, it'd be unfair in my eyes.

A symbol of prejudice isn't an action of prejudice...

Its only a symbol, If I had a quote of Adolf Hit!er or another racist head figure, then maybe it could be taken down...

To others its a symbol of hate, racism etc etc

What about the words 'Combat 18' in your signature?

If they're anything to do with the organization of the same name, then they're very much a symbol of hate and racism.

I suppose, but they were the group affiliated with the symbol so I thought it wasn't that bad.

Not like I'd actually follow all the BS those guys get upto
