If this surprises you, you haven't been paying attention to the real economy. In real life, it's even worse. People get a little credit and decide they need a High Definition Television. And when they can't pay that back, they decide they need a new car/truck/suv (I really don't understand the "logic" of this, but I've seen it happen too often).
A lot of people make extremely foolish decisions with their money, expecting people to be smart about spending make-believe money is just silly.
Oh, I continued the threadjack... oops. I think the question was pretty much answered anyway.
Almost but not quite. Which may sound a little crass and cruel but isn't really the intent.
While everyone was riding high on the economy buying their third vehicle and the biggest home the bank would allow them to have I maintained my happy little, non extravagent life style looking forward to and saving for the day that I too might be able to own a place of my own.
The market crashed, as it always does, and I walked over to the bank with my history of modest spending and decent credit (which really surprised me honestly) and applied to be pre-approved. I fully expected to be turned down but then at least I would know what steps I would need to take in the future to get me to where I wanted to be.
But I was approved and my kitty and I were able to find a place that was in a great location, 4 years old, and super pretty.
I guess the point of all of that was to live within your means and then you will be able to take advantage of the options that become available to you. -

I almost wish there WAS a limit. Or at least some oversight.
Oh yeah 2 here occasionally. -
Quote:Hi. So I'm a flipper and I really don't think we cause inflation. All we do is buy an undervalued item compared to the average selling price at the time, add a slight amount to cover Transaction fees and make a small profit. Never very much really. And then people buy it for 3 times the price I'm listing at.Originally Posted by Syntax42
I already do tip missions for hero merits. I am looking for another way to make INF after my tips are done.
I am not a fan of flipping items or crafting and selling because it is causing unreasonable price inflation. For example, one recipe sells for 50 mil while the crafted IO sells for 80 mil. There is no reason other than greed for a 30 mil crafting charge. I may have to do it anyways...
The crafters really aren't charging a 30 million influece crafting fee either. Maybe 3 million. Once again people pay it. And pay well.
Don't ask me why they do it. They just do.
I think what causes the inflation is people earning lots of influence and then spending it foolishly. Repeatedly too I must say.
And sorry for the ThreadJack. Carry on. -
Yaaaa for Praetorian T or T

Originally I planned to use the Vet bows and guns and stuff for museum pieces on my stairw wells. Changed my mind a couple of times since then so I';; make sure to make them go away. THey kept getting in my way too
Drew a picture of what I wanted to do on the way home so hopefully the structure will begin to take more shape.
Hope everyone likes it. -
Nice stairs coming down from the TPer.

Umm, so is there an update here? It's been a while since you last posted.
At least I do. I wish I had a third of the talent (and dedication) that a lot of these designers have. -

Cai, you're a riot! That was awesome! lol!
And hey Cai...wher's our HAck 2 ?

Thank you to whoever placed the beacons. Meant to do that but lazy cause I'm like lvl 5.

That Pyramid stairwell looks awesome.
Redlynne use HAnging LAmps to stack downwards. -
Hey Chris if you want a quick demo of how to do basic stacking of items and stuff send me a Tell in game some time or leave a private message here.
I would be glad to do my small part of helping your soon to be new addiction.
My Global in game is @Bashful Banshee as well. Not the 'as well' part though, just the first part where it says @Bashful Banshee.
Hmmm, there is no period at the end of my Global either. It's just Bashful Banshee
But that leads to an incomplete sentence
K Just leaving now.
But seriously, send me a message. -
Sorry. Felt compelled to look.

Good morning Sunshine, the Earth says Hello!

Is anyone still rolling regular merits or is it just a waste of recipes?

It does show that they are thinking of us at least.
I for one feel that this in and of itself shows the shinies soon to come.
All will be well in our little corner of the galaxy. We will be able to set the height of things without using Accents and Floor Tiles. Make the Crystal Balls 12 feet tall or just use the ball without the pedastal if you want. Ooh but best of all, use a safe as a safe or part of a stove. I can't wait.
Maybe, with any luck, our Dev Sunsport, Sunspun, hmmm what was the name, will come by to keep us well informed.
Well. It could happen.
Huh. Just noticed you can already have the crysta balls without the stands. My bad. Please ignore everything I said. -
I would sell it now before the market drops out again.

That is a neat idea Pum, the chat client/plugin. I have always wanted a global chat buffer so I could alt and not miss stuff.
Your idea is better though so now I want one of those instead. -
Yaaa for a Birthday.

While I don't have a letter from a doctor proving my sanity I think I may have to take exception to entirely insane.
Possibly touched with a side of order of odd would be acceptable though. -
Hmmm I really have no suggestions but am looking forward to seeing the pictures.

Would like to say welcome once again just because. I see Philly beat me to suggesting the N P C channel so all I will say is that it is a good channel to learn things from no matter how long you have been here.
Lots to see and lots to do. Enjoy. -

Hi, Schooner.
I've just started, but I'll say you can tell a lot about the folk here in the City just by their posts. I suspect even the ones that come across as crabby grumps have a soft nurturing side once you get to know them. Given the community that seems apparent here on Justice, I'd say they're worth the trip.
See you in the game!
Cheers!
Oh, um...er..Guess I should have finished reading this thread...*blush*
I'll go hide now.... -
I'm not sure how I missed this thread. Sorry to see you go LSK but it happens from time to time.
Rest assured though that life changes in a positive light just as fast. Things have a way of working out. -
Welcome back to the City.
