Great to see someone only viewing it from his position while at the same time taking the experiences from other people as non-relevant... not. Your argument is literally invalid since you fail to make any sort of point besides 'it wasn't ever for me, so it can't be the same for anyone else, all...

There is nothing 'attracting funds' since a while, ComPet failed, DeepToken failed, the Arkadia moon? We'll see, it's at least in-game, so better chances. The examples were perfectly taken, don't keep quality up and users leave, especially well-paying users. Investing into something new, which...

Actually you can. While there is a specific task to be done which is forwarded from MA, the execution of this task by itself shows the quality of the programmer. Also, a programmer which is specialized on a specific field usually has a small amount of free reign to push specific projects in...

Hrmm... this poll is quite interesting since basically ~10% of the people which have voted to time (a little bit less, 8,xx%) have put themselves out of the equation for educated decisions. 'I trust MA with all their decisions' is a setup which is bound to fail, trust is a fickle thing usually...

Yes, especially with MTG I've had the same thought a while ago already. Since the cards inside are always a specific rarity, but possess a different inherent market value based on their 'usefulness', or in this case the relevancy to the amount of possible decks which can be built with it, it...

There is a risk involved, the explanation will come with the things which have been spoken after your post, so here: Payed for Boxes - check Reward is random - check Outcome cannot be influenced - check (or at least no viable possibility to do so - yet) prices are transferable - check, there...

Yes, you're mostly right there, I have to agree at most thing in your post, but there are also some parts which were left out about the Tetha-state: It's one of automation where the brain goes into automatic reactions learned from experience, it's the state every competent person doing...

Ah, so finally the government is actually putting a hold to these ridiculous lootbox-sales. Buying those boxes was a very good way for people to get high-profit items like rings, mostly unobtainable to the largest amount of the player-base since it's literally locked behind a large pay-wall at...

Started out because I'm simply a curious person, I try everything which seems unconventional out at least once. Eu was one of those things, and it fits well with my hobby for gaming. As I realized how the game was working, I went towards actually profiting from it while building up a few...

Thinking about chipping out as well, might not seem as much as many others, but taking out 1,5k$ is still quite a bit. I would love if the direction of MA finally goes into Entropia, and actually properly working on it like a virtual reality market should be worked on, not like some crappy...

Yes, that's absolutely true, unless you want to maximize profit, which clearly is the viewpoint of MA as a company. So they do those things in a form which is purely profitable for them, not for the user, and lacking the ability to think up any sort of meaningful middle-ground sadly.

Oh, if the existing system proofs to work out well despite it's inherent flaws, you can be sure that's the next step to take. MA feels like a child who hasn't been socially adapted yet, pushing for the 'walls' of their life, the borders they aren't allowed to overstep, and while getting a few...

First of all, 'insane armor decay' had nothing to do with TT return, at all, it's only loot composition and counts as a TT input. Not killing mobs after damaging them does on the other hand, so this is pure profit for MA. Giving a player the chance to kill the mob after the defense ends is just...

Well, a monopoly in a market field isn't always the only one winning out. There are several ways to distinguish oneself from the competition in positive ways, so it's hard, but absolutely possible even long-term, as long as you stay adaptive. But yeah, your comment is right in the sense that...

It's not about adding simply 'more' in this case rather then variety. Those wouldn't be different entities in itself but instead be the same weapon, but with adaptations, therefore 'custom' ones. Imagine the system like this: You have a Gun dropped, which is called the 'Awesome gun 1000' just as...
