Being the lazy market griefer I am, I thought about putting in multiple bids when I first saw this as well, but I'm having a hard enough time coming up with one character I want a free ride to 50 for.

v_v Soooo far out of my range...
Ah well, that's what I get for being a casual player.
All that is planned fails. All that is born dies.
All that is built crumbles. This will always be true.
But memories remain, And that is beautiful.
And sad to say, this is why I think they should end the level pact part of the game. Greedy people.

Who's greedy? I don't need the 50. Smurph doesn't need the money. I'm just having fun.

Huh?
How is one greedy when it comes to imaginary money in an imaginary world amongst individuals who already have billions of imaginary dollars?

Don't take it personally if you think I was mean to you. I'm an ******* to everyone.

this is EXACTLY how I looked at it when Smurph first proposed the idea on the in-game market chat. I told him I would sign up right away.
This is a game... I dont need the 50, and Smurph does not need the money..
hmm sounds strangley familar

Agreed.
Apart from my initial misgivings about fee-based PL (RMT - anyone?), which Smurphy went to the
trouble of clearing up with rednames (this isn't R_MT ... It's I_MT - *Imaginary* Money Transfer,
which is evidently OK), I find it an interesting exercise to watch unfold.
Were it not for the fact that I'm more inclined towards Blueside, and I have one Villain leveling
towards 50 with a friend of mine already (solely to unlock VEATs), I'd have placed a bid myself...
Amusing stuff.

Dumple we may be forced to up our bids as it looks like your the lowman on the high dollar bid totem pole !

I'm usually in your camp on many things, but how is this not exploitive PowerLeveling for a fee?
I realize the distinction that the "fee" is play money, so basically, you're virtual RMT???
I'll be curious to see the dev's position on this one, but it seems like a bit of a slippery slope
to me...
GL,

Slippery indeed. I'll be curious to see what happens
There's no slope. It ends at "in game" verse "not in game." I will update you if I become aware of any changes.

And it's not like paid PLs are new to i13, or even to i9 (though they certainly took off in i9 when inf became a much more useful currency).
And for a while things were cold,
They were scared down in their holes
The forest that once was green
Was colored black by those killing machines
