I found an article that when poof a few days later about isk selling sites merging to try to sell thier isk.
the price has dropped to 3$ for 100 mil.
alliances are tricking 100's of farmers with false safety in 0.0 by having them pay the alliance to be there and then blowing them out of the sky (awesome story on EvE TV).
so basically no one is buying isk.
the farmers get becoming paranoid of the eve community because we are jerks to them.
do you think they were expecting a wow community full of kids with credits cards? if they were they were very mistaken. eve has only grown and yet the price has dropped.
did you know the first isk sale was 1 mil for 400$ on ebay? fun little EOn fact.
point is huzzah!
the reason why were getting spamed in channels about buying isk is because were driving them broke.
and all of those isk farmers will have to get jobs farming gold.
I kinda wonder why they are still here even.... they can't be making any sort of good money anymore.
but congratz to the eve community for being more mature than wow :)
yes I'm basically talking to myself but I thought someone might be interesting in knowing were almost at the end of this isk war.
no comments needed this can sink to the bottom.
That argument is incorrect.
For a start killing farmers would increase prices by reducing the pool of isk going to farmers, if the supply is brought down to below demand. Secondly farmers themselves only receive a minor percentage of the sale value, the overwhelming majority of profits go directly to the websites making the sales. Isk farming is the majority of the time a three stage process, farmer who gets paid some 10c or something ridiculous per hour, middleman who takes farmer's gold, pays them and sells to isk selling website, then website sells to customer for some 1000% markup on their paid price.
If prices are falling it is by either oversaturation of the market or reduced demand for isk. I'm guessing it is reduced demand. This has nothing to do with EVE players being mature, simply that there's an alternative. Price set at what market will bear.
Get over it. Let CCP deal with the problem as best as possible and quit making threads.
