    TG Undercutters. A rant.

    I am here to vent about TG members undercutting other TG members on the trade market. Without naming names, I think it is pretty cutthroat and gutless that you would undercut your fellow TG players. Why don't you simply MATCH the price that is being sold by TG members and buyout any outside undercuts and resell it? Not only would you make more money from selling at a higher price, you won't step on anyone's toes and look greedy.

    If you're uncertain of who you're undercutting in the market, the embassy is click away and gives a full list of TGA members.

    And sometimes, before jumping to conclusions (though Ikonic is not in this case), it may appear you're being undercut by another member...but in actuality, that member may not have the market range to even see what you have on the market. If you're unsure, just send a friendly note letting them know they've undercut you on the market and would appreciate it if they'd adjust their prices. We're all friends here...so that shouldn't be an issue.

    O no the corruption is in all the cities now even throughout our allies. If only we could have one giant governors palace for the alliance.

    How about we just set market standards for what constitutes the 'lowest value' on the trade market? TG members would then be free to post goods higher than that mark, but undercutting below it would be discouraged at least.
    My sanity is not in question...
    It was a confirmed casualty some time ago.


    Light, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I had to kill because they ticked me off.

    I don't see this as a necessity yet. With the recent update, the market is going to fluctuate and re-establish itself. As far as I know, this incident was isolated and doesn't warrant any kind of restrictive measures to how we work the market.
