This only confirmed my suspicions from my previous post. An intended move, removing diamonds from AH and putting +16 jewels next. We haven't had +16 jewels since cap lvl 82 released and we have them the weekend diamonds were removed from AH. Too big of a coincidence.

You.. you mean it was all a ploy to make money? From GF? NO WAY! What a shocker.

Why is it so hard for you conspiracy theorists to understand that they are only trying "to balance the economy in the game and prevent Goldseller scam."

Because after playing this game for 5 years and doing the things people said will help (paying for the game, supporting the game even with its downfalls) it still comes short of what we should have. The companies fail repeatedly and hurt the whole playerbase instead of the problem.

There are posts here to help them, sometimes people give all they can before revolting. I was one to defend for about 4.5 years, just recently opened up to realizing that sometimes... the company is to blame. I'm sorry.

why the [BEEP!] was this reported? it's true...


You have just been censored by Majik

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

It is kind of happening. New faces coming onto the forums to voice their opinion. People get tired of praising and praising for years, and seeing no results (because they are pampering the problem instead of criticizing).

I could sell diamonds using the gift method, I don't mind and I certainly have more than enough diamonds, but there is nothing left to buy in the AH.

Okay this is to The Support team

Removing diamonds from the Auction House claiming that you are trying to fix the economy was the worst thing you could possibly do.
Thanks to that you just made diamond prices on Artemis go Higher by 50% increase from base 200k to now 300k per diamond.

Heres my Suggestion
Put limits on the amount of Diamonds a player can buy per day or week
and Limit the amount of diamonds a Player can Sell in auction to 500 per day.
Or have a pending system that requires a GM to over view all Gold for diamond transactions and the GM can either approve or disapprove the transaction if the GM thinks that the trade is not legit.

Diamond prices fell by 40% since they removed them from the AH on Govinda. So your case does not apply to every server.

Aye. AH Diamonds on Reni were 160k+ per before the removal. Last night a huge batch was sold for 120k per.

So now we see diamonds going down in prices finally and all those who were QQ'ing that they would go up, one thing LOL!!!!. Well mostly those who QQ'ued about it were manipulating them on AH so have fun doing that now. Well now those will have to actually make gold the old fashion way and farm.

So 250k - 300k in worldchat is completely bringing prices down.

You are reading and acknowledging things that only support what you like to preach.

Fortunately, it is nice to have friends and make friends who happen to sell diamonds. If you are on Artemis, DO NOT BUY FROM THE PEOPLE SELLING AT 250k - 300k PER IN WORLD. Ask for 180k, and you will likely get a whisper or two... or not. Still, do not pay those 5-7 people who are WC'ing for that much.

Umm..prices went down in Artemis, Govinda, and Reni..I am still searching for someone to sell on Palenque @ 350k...Tbh at this point it doesn't really matter offer is gonna end soon and im going to have to wait till next "sale".

Well as i statted before i am only and always talking about RENI, with all that happened on Artemis, of course gold and worth anything. On Reni price are going down slowly and all those that scammed the AH with their buy low sell high, well now they have a crap ton of gold and nothing to use it on to manipulate the game.

They are just lucky that people still are bringing the prices of diamonds down. We will get it back below 100K in world chat, i am sure of it.

Let's see what it will look like after a few promo cycles.



But my expectation is: during dia promo more p2ps' will have dias. But since f2ps' cannot buy dias for the future (and because the situation is unclear and ppl might be buying only for basic needs), the demand will be lower. It's the buyers' market. F2ps' can ask a way lower price and p2p's with dias for sell will have to accept it.



During IS promo it will be the other way around. Most dias will have been sold already. There will be larger demand with little supply. It's the sellers' market - if you have dias you can ask as high price as you like and someone will buy it.



So as a f2p you would just stack dias during dia promo just as p2ps do, right? Well, not that simple. F2ps cannot buy dias to use them later anymore (unless you make such an agreement with a p2p friend). Basically, f2ps will use IS promos _much_ less, I expect.
And mind the fact that it's IS promo items what we were usually buying for dias - well, not anymore for f2ps, if the dia prices during dia promo are _much_ higher than before...

Also, if p2ps cannot sell dias right away during dias promo for a reasonable price, they might be less inclined to buy dias from GF at all. Fine that you are happy for the price drop during _this_ promo, but it's just the p2ps sticking to the olden habits. They couldn't sell for 60% of the old price? Just wait and see how they will queue to buy dias from GF during the next dia promo...

So I would expect dia supply to drop in the long run. But also the f2ps' way of thinking about dias may change-if it becomes just a source of very basic, really needed items (for which it makes sense to buy during dia promo), the overall demand might drop.

 Hardly what GF would want, but it might mitigate price increase to some extend.

And, indeed - there is no market, it's hard to talk about _the_ current price anyway... A price from a good friend has nothing to do with the one from the world shout.

Well, we don't have much choice but to wait and see...

The current diamond system worked for many chapters. I'm sure people can cope with it.

I agree with Cenre, how long did we do it with the gifting option? 3 years, so it's not a big deal at all. You want diamonds, well, buy them yourself with your real money or get them from another player. Also to all the players that can't play well with others and were mean to others on the servers and didn't give a crap about anybody else, guess what? i hope you buy your own diamonds, loll, people took names and adresses.

Has too where good fun trolling and bad trolling will not pan out at all, loll.

It's a game about cooperation and fun, but some people just want to be all mean and bullies behind their little keyboard and act like they are 7 foot tall and weight 350 pounds of muscle, loll. It's a game, have fun and enjoy yourselves, no need to be acting like little kids who throws tantrum like this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YersIyzsOpc, i am sure he plays on Reni LMAO

Biggest difference now is before it was a reasonable price to buy backpack and bank scrolls with rubies. Now the rate you get rubies has dropped and the amount of rubies needed has risen. So yes it is very different than it was before. I should not have to buy dias on every account just so i can have backpack spaces.

many promos now give rubies with it, currently i have 8k rubies stacked up and know of many with loads also, not hard to stack them up currently since rune promo etc gives many.

Yep i also have like 5500 rubies, it's just that rubies in my eyes should be much more valuable than diamonds since the only way to be obtained is by spending diamonds. Many have said that in the past, then you have those that will argue they are free since you have spent diamonds etc. Well not free if you have to spend diamonds to buy them, they should make it possible to buy rubies for the item shop too

You don't.

Well, not unless you want page 5 or 6.

Why is that? Are BP pages 5 & 6 extra special?
