Turns/Market Turns

As many people have noticed, turn prices are increasing and turn stocks are dwindling. Very much so that you have to wait hours upon hours for turns, now this is not generally such a bad idea but it just drives the price up.

My suggestion is this, keep the Market Turn rate at a designated minimum instead of letting it ever decrease to the point where turns are so scarce that nobody wants to sell them unless for the most they can get.

So my proposition is keep the Market Turns at a minimum of 200/1 use of the Market Supporter Bonus. That way the price goes down, and people have all the turns they need.

Perhaps even reset to a certain amount like (if below 250) to 250 each week or two weeks? What do you think? Suggestions? Opinions? I'm all ears. I just want to get more turns out there for people who really need them. I am tired of looking at the Market with 5-6 threads of people basically begging for turns to be thrown at them.

Thanks,
Nooberto. :D

Re: Turns/Market Turns

How about if we were to generate more turns?

That is the exact reason why the price is the way it is. GREED. If you want to grow, put some damn effort into it. USE your turns.

Generating is pathetic. It's slow, and not even worth it if you want to maintain stable growth.

Re: Turns/Market Turns

Re: Turns/Market Turns

I think this is a good idea. With the constant need of turns prices are ridiculous. Great suggestion imo Noobert

Re: Turns/Market Turns

So ur saying that per mt i can buy 5 packages of turns wich at this rate would be 1k turns 3k if we spent all 3 mt's on it. Hmm personnaly i think this aint a bad idea and it helps players who dont have SS to buy good at while not having to relie on the black market. Yup good idea in my oppinion

Re: Turns/Market Turns

Will help increase the amount of turns that can be used, drop prices, for smaller accounts it's very good, especially for those still raiding, raiding 500k uu for 1k AT then paying 400k for another k is a little rediculous at the moment.

Nice one Nooby

Re: Turns/Market Turns

Great idea. Turns are a pain to buy off people selling on the forum especially with the high demand and high prices.

Re: Turns/Market Turns

I see.....now I have two angles from this: 1. I like turns. I would love it if they could be more readily available. But 2. I also sell them. Quite a nice income booster might I say. With readily available

My suggestion is this: players who are selling turns would either offer at the standard market price, or a bit higher than market rates to "lock in the price" for a set amount of time. An element of risk for both, since it can go either way. With the way it's been going though, it would be beneficial for the person buying. But who knows: it could very well reverse itself in a matter of time.
