A way to revive the Market from the "great depression?"

[Sameh]

This idea has been introduced many times before.

Npc on stuff would be abused but a price floor set by the game would be a good idea!:)

There is a price floor. .01

I know, it's not really that funny.

this is an amazing idea i thought about suggesting it but found this thread plz implement it

I like the idea sand. Just needs some thinking through. Read my suggestion called "haypi needs an in-game change" and tell me what you think of my market solution.

Well it's a not a new idea and it's been circulating the forums for a while... I like the idea but then wouldn't things on the market never be bought because people would just sell to npc? Not the market?

To revive market:
buy out all higher priced items
this will creat a gap ex. stone sold at .01, the next highest would be .02, after buying out the all the .02~.10 the next highest would be .11. Then you buy out all the .01, thus making the lowest buy price .11.
ALSO this would increase the avg sell price of stone :3 This takes A LOT of money. Get a group of people, a very big group. You will probably need maybe 500k+ money all together to fix the market again.
Another way to do it, find who is dumping in your market (dumpers purposely bring down market to make the game harder for L9- players), and farm them. They can't sell if they don't have anything to sell.
Educate your server. Some players want to sell fast and think the only way to make money is to sell for lower prices. Thus, crashing the market, because then someone else see's .09 and they think they have to sell it for .8, and the next person thinks they have to sell for .07 or no one will buy their res regardless if there is only two .08's in the market.
