Server 10 Market Crash

Hello people, I am Павел Молотовский. There has recently been a market crash in server 10. I am concerned, because usually the market changes. The market in server ten has stayed low for a while. This may cause many problems for both experienced players and newbies. Newbies need money for the upgrade of their civilizations technology, and occasionally to buy resources. Older players generally farm inactive players or forts and sell most of those resources through the market. The issue is that older players need money for technology and to buy nuggets, gems, medals(currently rarely on the market in s10), scepters, and even a crown! Since there are unlimited daily gifts, and technology upgrades for newer players don't cost as much, they end up spending the money on resources. But when resources are extremely cheap, newer players, for whom upgrades aren't as costly, use these extra resources to build armies. But then they slowly stop focusing on developing their city, which defeats part of the purpose of the game. It is better when the resources are more expensive, as newer players learn about their cities, and older players can afford more technology upgrades and treasures. And isn't the goal in this game to progress levels, expand your civilizations, build armies, have fun, and help each other?

This is why I propose trying to fix the market.

More details later,

Congrats... The same cycle happens on every server.

I have inferred that, and I am trying to fix the market quicker than the other servers.

You and many others from all thee other servers as well. You can try but ultimately it is just in vain.

The market is rapidly improving, thank you all who listened to my suggestions on world chat.

I've mentioned this in several of my posts, but market prices are based on average prices of the items/resources that are sold. The demise of the market had to have been intended unless the maker did't see that people would continuously try to undercut each other, cancelling the items that didn't sell and selling them for lower so that they get sold.
There are ways to fix the market, but to make it permanent, it'd take waaaaay too much work...sigh...yay for buying resources at .01 though.

In a world where all markets are completely geared towards profiting buyers and where sellers lose money. ^^

Yeah it is getting better, although stone is now being sold at 0.02 again... sigh.....

I gotta admit, I personally love the low prices! Who doesnt enjoy a bargain?!
