Its an inverse economical relationship that in turn delivers help to many people.

You really have a point here, but as we all know, there's just a few, ver very few people in Entropia that actually is making profit on mining.. Most people who mine FN is losing peds right?. So.. What do you think is the "right upon the community"? Higher prices on sweat, so more non-depositers can drain money from the loot pool, and even some of them might live as non-depositers through they're time in Entropia? (someone is actually doing that
and credits for they're endurance to actually do that, it must have been a great effort)
Or is it better to pay more for the FN so that all the miners can get a little less loss on they're ped cards?

Yes, depositors should get what they paid for..thats the whole point of a product.. but, as the saying goes, "the rich get richer, whilst the poor get poorer". Ive been somewhat active in EU, and whenever Im on a hunt/mine, i always see the same names, time and time again. I wont say, Ive globalled many a time, and hoffed 2 times, so i think its been fair to me. However, there are the newcomers, who may deposit 10$, and they use that. Sure, they'll get about 20-30% back in skill gain, but what about the rest? It goes into the lootpool for the forever-globallers to get again. No offence to them, they deserve it by the means they get it! But, they just keep getting them. Why not split it a bit more evenly? entice new people? give them chances to thrive?
Again, sorry if i made it seem i thought mining was "free"..i know its not, must have worded it wrong. |
I know that you didn't think that mining is free, but the fact is, just as I said, most of the miners don't profit at all!.. They just keeping losing peds, only a ver very few amount of players actually profit on anything in Entropia.. (There are made 700k accounts or something, how many of them is actually making a profit?
)
Yes, there are a ver few players that keep globaling, globaling, hofing, making ATH's and yes, some of them have a regular income in Entropia (as many calls them; Ubers).. Well, do you think theese are players who logged on to Entropia, gathered some sweat, got some help, got some mining equipment and made themself a fortune?.. The answer is: "No!".. sorry.. Theese are mostly players who have used thousands of hours ingame, and been ten times more dedicated than the non-depositers.. Theese are players who really deserves getting some peds back.. I also think theese are players who have used thousands of $'s too, so even if you see them globalling on every click they do on a crafting machine, they might still not have a profit..
and well, if you think of crafters etc that makes a global every second click on his machine, well.. You do realise that some things cost several hundreds of peds for just one click?
