Market - unlimited PPT's.

It seems the market has limited resources of everything except ppt's. Why aren't they a commodity like the other resources in that they are dependant on how many have been sold.
Incase that made no sense to you, I am suggesting that a PPT's (SS's) be added when someone pays cash for resources and if people aren't trading them they'll run out just like if no one traded turns.

That wouldnt be a good idea .. without them being unlimited .. there will always be the same amount of recorces in the market simply converting to others .. with this it adss new recorces to it ....
Also .. if it was limited .. it gives people mroe reason to buy one while they can ... not too good ...

Easiest way to limit PPT = Make a PPT transaction worth all 3 market turns.

one good reason why you can't limit the number of ppt's that can be bought is that ppts cant be sold into the market if this makes no sense or sounds stupid just ignore me

don't think you can right now, all you can do is buy SupportStatus again and again, which includes a 2-day PPT.

I meant SS which includes PPT. That you can buy on the market.
My point with all this is that it has just made ppt TOO easy to get. Massive numbers of people are on it all the time.

great contribution.
But I think we all know what this would do to your plans.

here here! this is a good idea, and the more you use it...the more expensive it gets...until it no longer makes money enough for you to use it...

Very good idea.
Would probably stop most of the ppt abuse, and be an extra cost to discourage people from going on it too often.

lol
Im not necessarily in favor of this, but it would certainly cut down on the number of people who are constantly protected.
