MA's game plan
Drop a few rings, rings MU holds at 5k and many people buy them.
MA Drops a few more rings, ring MU goes down then holds at 4k and many people buy them.
40 rings already dropped and purchase for 5k then MU drops 1k after people paid 5k.
This lost forever 1k MU goes straight into MA's pockets,
40 x 5k = 200k - 40k mu loss = 40k profits!!!
So people deposited 200k to buy the 40 rings now that same pile of rings is worth 160k.
Soo 200k max gets depo'ed, MU change then 160k max can get withdrawed
dude you are still in the dark, in my point of view!
in order for MA to make money, secure cash, in other word their balance to be up, they have to make sure the total ped available ingame is lower, way lower than the total ped deposited.
Which means if you understand it right, decay player base total ped value available. please note that markup is just here to feed more deposit or make ped move from 1 to another, which will inevitably be drained down by the game core!
You can deposit 1 million dollar in and take em straight away out MA would have made a tiny profit off you but considering they want to secure and earn that cash the loot given out will be down by few percents, they wont earn 1m$ but they will still make a few k$s day by day, why would they pass on such a big ammount of money they actually HOLD.
To sum up, 100M$ in from us; for them to make profit they have to make sure the total $ available on every account is lower than 100M$ everyday (taking into count variable such as new depo and withdraw), day by day the total ped/$ available around no matter how u turn it or perceive it, is to be just lower and lower.
they do not hesitate to make a few sales a year (official or not), straight withdrawn from the total balance of all the player around, even if its only 1 player buying AND just check the average return from strong boxes (all buyer/players in the pool) get 350ped uni ammo, no ring, useless fireworks and some junk pills/pet, try to hunt with 350ped uni ammo and you lose it all in most case over decay, straight atleast 40$ in if not more. Lucky to get a ring, fine MA didnt lose shit, you are taking ped from another player that you will cycle or withdraw
then comes this situation we are in, few ring drops out of 100ks bought, stats are amazing on the paper cuz you believe 50 rings are dope but the reality on MA's side is still fuckin greater with thousands $ secured for almost nothing given out.
Talking off my hundreds/thousands non ring looting boxes and sadly not alone.
No matter how you turn it total ped available must become lower than total deposited/given back as withdrawal, in other word they are just being like banks playing with your money and actually making profits off as time goes on aaaand in the end will be winner, (new content, new sale, old money secured, you still call it new profit).
