Also this "Inflation" would only cause an item to rise for a low amount like 10%-20% so it would make up for the inflation. That gold from the event would be invested into that extra price increase.

    These prices are fake and not caused by inflation caused by booty. This event gold came from chests mostly, lots of chests were bought from auc and dropped 12k gold. Making that 300b or so number irrelevant/untrue. The number would only be relevant only if the chests were untradable and not bought/opened from auction. why? That was a gold sink from auc most of the time you paid more than you got.

    Also this event wasn't broken like the ones before. It added much less gold. A player getting 1.5m gold from the event won't inflate the game or cause a 30m item to be 4x the price lmao, that would be out of price RANGE. Obviously booty didn't triple quadruple anyone's gold. People don't realize but an event like Eggzavier would cause much more inflation at first sight. That event actually made players rich, unlike booty. These last events didn't give much gold and didn't put anyone in the price range of these arcanes or give them the ability to pay 3x/4x the price of an item they couldn't afford beforehand.

    First of all: these prices are results of overpricing which also explains why other others didn't rise except particular ones.
    Second: by inflation caused by all these years of farming, people just have a lot of gold left so they buy overpriced or not. If it's overpriced then it's even more of a "look at me I am rich" statement, which encourages some to buy even more.

    OP prices after an average event= overpricing- like always. Have fun with your greediness/overpricing people, I am out
    You are an absolute genius, with IQ levels off the charts. You made my day.

    Yes just hold your gold for a bit. Things always manage to calm down eventually. Its just the temptation of buying right now. Just like stock the people who are the most patient make the most money.

    As for items you really want to buy. Unfortunately u will have to stick to forums or auction watch for a bit. Hoarders eventually release their items. Especially those items they try to flip for profit but don’t succeed in selling. We will see what STS does to help out the economy. Because everyone having gold will mean everyone will try to merch and flip stuff. Which means it’s a competition for every desirable item. Kills the fun of this game.

    Would be nice to have an event that requires gold to run instead of energies...

    How does buying gold chests in auc act as a goldsink? The gold was just distributed from player to player. Nothing gets liquidated. Get your facts straight.

    Individuals who became wealthy from Eggzavier is due to gold distribution amongst the community. No gold was generated.

    Whereas Booty & Party Crasher, its sole purpose is to generate gold, it will always conbtribute to inflation.

    The "These didn't cause inflation" narrative is pure delusional. Like as if that quarter of a trillion gold generated in 2 weeks magically disappeared from circulation.

    Eggzaver would cause inflation because it would make a player rich from gold distribution from rich to poor. This takes away millions from a rich guy and gives it to a poor player which puts the player in question in the price range of these vanities.
    I said that the chestswede more of a good sink if bought from auction because they cost 40k to buy and dropped 12k

    Thats a fallacy, an assumption that one would necessarily be in question once they have gold. One things certain is that inflation is inflation if supply can't keep up with the sudden significant influx of gold. In this case, its the result from the series of gold events without a significant enough goldsink to equalize.

    So how again does this act as a goldsink? A goldsink would imply gold liquidation. Selling/buying the chests is gold distribution, and more gold is in circulation everytime those gold chests are opened which will contribute to inflation.

    Unsure why this has to be argued with when its pretty obvious.

    I definitely feel like it’s due to inflation ; prices of everything have skyrocketed (made 70m profit off of gears thus far, from 240m investment)

    This is 2 years ago when I came back. I had a balloon banner and I was told if I message people to rise the price it would work. Little did I know it doesn't work, it won't work like that and I cringe now for what I said. I wanted my 30m item to go to 50m hence I only had 36m at the time. So 15m profit is huge to me, I sent the message and all things went down hill.
    I got death threats by multiple people, I got tted constantly by multiple people. It doesn't stop there, people spamming me, leaving my maps after tting me.
    You want proof it didn't work. At the time when balloons went to 50m is the same time kersh bb and ollerus goes up in price too. I didn't own any of those yet I was accused of them rising too.
    Right now, balloon goes up and guess what else goes up? Ollerus kersh bb and many other items. I got none of them on me.
    I don't get it, why keep bringing back the past on 1 mistake I did when I have done over 100000 good deeds? No one talks about what I have done that is good, just my mistake and tt hah. There are people out there doing way worse yet no one says a word about them?
