The trend of market value manipulation

[Limsi]

A lot of things happen irl. Doesn't mean it is justified

And it does not have to be. Human dynamics affecting the market will be reflected regardless of any medium. 5 years ago, we had threads like this and no one has placed a conscious effort to put a cease to something as trivial as this. People have the inclination to do anything to win regardless of the method - which definitely can include unethical practices.

In a utopia, the masses dictate how much a certain item should cost, but then again that's just being the idealist me.
