1.0 was an old price and no longer applies in today's sweat market

I don't think they'd care to be honest.

No, there's too many sweaters and too many changes have been made to the sweat system since then.

In the old days sweat was worth more for less, It was harder to sweat back then...

I must confess that I haven't been buying or selling sweat for ages, but I've been informed by some reliable friends that the current price is around the 0.5 mark

When I started, the sweat price was around 0.6 and 0.7...

Things change I guess...

Ok , I'll try to explain it; it an market economy so..

1. EU being a market economy it make impossible to set price for that is not available through the TT. Sweat having no TT value (as such) is exposed to more volitile price changes.

2. I don't understand the questiion: are you talking about their buying price or their selling price?

3. Question is unclear but if you are asking about historical price versus today's ?
The price is dependant on several factors:

* Number of player who can sweat (all atm ); previously sweat gathering was capped, not possible over about 250 points. This lowered the supply & pushed up the price.

* Number of who actual gather sweat ( for a living I mean) , the large number of sweaters increases the supply hence lowering the price (like now)

*Historically Mindforce skill were new & exciting, so more players were interested trying it out; this increased the demand & pushed up the price.

Combinations of these various factor including these give today's current price.
I don't think sweat will ever be worthless unless MA withdraws MF skills or introduces something else which replaces them.
