Oh and as far as on topic goes... Market manipulation is a part of everyday business, and all the best/succesfull businesses do it... Walmart, Microsoft, McDonalds... etc... I have no problem with someone trying to do it in PE. In the end... people are going to pay what they are willing to pay... no one is forcing the purchase of the GSI's.
I agree with you.

I am a capitalist at heart and have faith in the quasi-free market that we have here on Calypso. However, staying true to my capitalist roots consumers must be made aware of possible price gouging.

This keeps the market competitive and put much more pressure on someone trying to control a large market share.

The reason I am all about making people aware is that the tools we use to keep us abreast of the Market will be affected as well. The auction viewer on the client loader and the new Mytwopecs.com among others.

We should be able to tell when someone is trying to over power a market.

We should have the choice wether we let this happen or use our economic weapons against the person.

The Calypso economy the new PvP.
