[quote=Cade]this is almost entirely due to false inflation... over the past couple weeks, GSIs have risen steadily due to less drops, but tis is NOT due to that. this is due to a trader (with whom i am well-acquainted) not only buying out as many GSIs on the market as physically possible, bbut also 'allowing his storage to 'swallow' some of the ones that he might otherwise put on auction... and you wont figure out exactly who by checking auction, because i did this... apparently he used several secondary avaatars, including business acquaintances, to spread it out some what.
we had already talked about this, and he hinted at the 'possibility' of doing someting like this, and the benefits of investing in the procedure.
obviously he found the investors, because i did not offer to help.QUOTE]
Very intresting.
Of course, this person should be locked due to the fact that having multipile avatars is against the rules.
Also, this person, if he/she wishes to sell said GSIs, and make a profit, will undo their lock on the market as they sell GSIs and those GSIs are consumed.
Finally, we can all thwart this kind of market manipulation by simply refusing to pay these inflated prices.
Cade, care to PM the name of the cheate...i mean trader?
