$$$ black market

i think admin needs to re look at the black market, im not saying its not a good idea...its a great idea, its just its "lost" its edge, the only things worth buying is the at's and then sell them off for what you want

for example:

Good Type Gained Per $1USD Quantity Available To Buy
Mining Drone 12,000 7,200,000
Attack Turns 600 342,000
Naquadah 8,000,000,000 9,600,000,000,000

say you spend 50$ on the game
for $50 you can get eather ( im sticking to the theory someone is buying only one thing) 600k uu or 30k at's or 400bill naq

now lets not mention for $50 you can get 1trill from other players( as it may not be reliable thats why were not mentioning it)

you could buy the 30k at's and going from the market rate sell them for eather 75kuu per 1k at's or 40bill for 1k

75 * 30 = 2,625,000 uu
or
40bill *30 = 1.2trill

ao my sudgestion is for admin to please re look at it...and think about maybe adgusting it as currenty its not reaflly worth selling naq and uu their if someone can just buy at's and sell them ( to me it defeits the point)

We are all happy you like all these ideas... now how about not repeating it 20 times over, once in every thread? ;)

I do the "buy attack turns and resell for naq" occasionally. The rate of return is often better that way.

I'm not sure you're going to get much support from the game administration as long as the $$$ is flowing. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't bother changing it over a 200 billion difference between what a player can do through the cash market and unsupported black market trades on the forums, especially if the game was making money from it.

if it was cheaper a lot more people would just buy their way into the game, which in a sense is 'cheap'
