oh yeah?
Can you prove it?
His claim was a bit exagerated but still ...
You said that you were looking at several potential extremelly good deals that nobody else noticed
but it seems that perception was incorrect in at least one
no big problem there by itself (if you don't take chances it is next to impossible to get better than an average nice deal )
but on the other side you didn't knew what was the driving force behind the previous prices and that is bad
hence you were doing a bad investment
( you say you "controled" the demand for more than one week still you had no form of generate a need for the product or a usefulness by yourself, very doubt full since with the current use in the blueprints for nova it takes many thousands of crafting attempts to use such ammount).
I'm not saying that MA can't nor won't change the drop rate, but even in this situation it will take by my perspective a few months at least for the market start needing extra nova that wasn't droped until today, since most people don't like enhancers it will take a reduction of about 95% on the current drop rate so that prices won't keep falling, and since MA wants people to get used to use enhancers and that only can happen if they realized by using them that it gives them advantadge to use it then it follows that low prices of nova are in MA interest.
and more to it
you have already admited:
hehe ure right see my math skills suck.
in the case that generated this event you must either being very tired/drunk when you wrote a 333% error of evalutation on the offer it was presented
or you suck as a trader
and should reconsider your future actions
So exageration aside you might take his comment as an advise to be more careful next time.
