Sweaters Protest

[JackFree]

As long as I can get it myself, why should I pay anything for sweat? It is a free resource and you should be happy to get anything at all for it. This type of "movement" has been attempted many times in the past, and has failed every time.

"All sweat buyers unite against the evil sweaters price tyranny!!! Collect it yourself!"

Sweating will never be a very profitable profession, MA want to make money from this game...increasing the value of sweat is equivalent to giving away free money....and we all know that will never happen
Good Luck to you but I don't like your chances...
Btw I'm an ex-sweater who gave up in favour of depositing!! It's sooo much easier than spending hours earnig a few measly ped!!! lol

Nobody forces you to 'WORK'. Nobody forces you to 'SLAVE'

This is ENTERTAINMENT.

Why not just deposit the price of the burger you are gonna have at dinner and play for a week?


Beats whining for a week to play for an hour...

If I remember correctly the last person who tried to organise a "strike" in EU got themselves a temp ban from MA.

Hi,

some people seem to forget that there is no sweat-cap anymore...

...and that it is possible to get at least 500 bottles sweat within one hour.

For me the following rule applies: The higher the sweat-price, the more I will gather sweat by myself...

Now, I deposit occasionaly, either for big purchases or when I want to do something big, like a SOC hunt. Otherwise, I sweat more often then not, although the occasional deposit slips in there. I know boths ides of the fence - I started out as a nondepositor and was hell-bent on remaining that.

Of course, then I got a job and that changed. Now I have the spare money to deposit every now and again, to get things I want. I see sweating as a luxury that MA gives us, akin to your goverment throwing pennies/cents/eurocents on the floor all the time for people to pick up. It's not a common thing, it shouldn't really happen but it does.

Now, I would run around grabbing pennies if given the chance; money is money and as they say, look after the pennies and pounds look after themselves. However, would I then get those pennies and complain that I can't buy a car with it? I would look foolish doing so, that is for sure. No, I can collect the pennies and get something small; a chocolate bar, a burger, a newspaper. Little things that give me small amounts of enjoyment.

What I do not understand is the mentality that somehow, we owe it to you to pay more. Yes, you get sweat and we buy the sweat, we pay for not having to go sweat ourselves, it's a service like any other. The only difference is that we could also go out and collect pennies ourselves if we wanted to. And if we did that, then you would get nothing.

So please, don't pay for a bus fare and expect to get a car. If you do, one day the buses may stop taking pennies altogether.

Actually sweat is free money, not much, but free money nonetheless.
