Christian Hall How else can I support the free trading program?
___
Kyran Khaos You wish to support free trading? Right now it's only a bunch of us who are placing prices lower than average on the CPM. There's always making a donation to a trader that supports it or you can 'tag' your forum threads with
Supporting Free Trade to show that you support the lowering of prices throughout the galaxy and CPM. Basically we should be calling it Fair Trade but I've heard of Middlemen that charge fee's for their services (making it non-free trade because you're paying someone trusted to be a middleman). Also people rising the prices of say a JM5000 from the average price of 2,000,000 to 2,500,000 as it is on the CPM now. I'm all about having average to below average prices because if people see that you're offering a 500k difference they're more likely to buy it. But in some cases they're more likely to up the price and sell it.
If you do want to support 'Free Trade' then just keep your prices average and tag yourself saying that you do support it.

Christian Hall Alright, I'll do my best to keep my prices lower than average. and I'll put the Supporting Free Tradeing thing in my sig, if I have room.

Year 11 Day 309, 15:10 Also, would you be kind enough to help me create a game for the Gambling Hut that's a bit easier managed than the Scratch Cards? At first I thought it was a good idea but now I'm doubting myself. Something to do with Free Trade..
____
Christian Hall Yeah let me think on that one....I'll get back to you soon.
I'll even see what my friends say.

Christian Hall First thing that comes to mind is something like:
First person to provide a screen shot of a completed sell that was atleast ??% under CMP Average gets double that, or a free Blah blah blah.
Second person to provide a ........Same thing as above.
Or: First person to post ten screenshots of a completed sale below CPM average gets...Same as above.
This really depends on how much money you are willing to give away, because that depends on how much money you are willing to give away, because that would be a pretty good drain on you bank account. Also you could ask for donations while you are running it. .

My bank account is pretty empty as it is... But that does sound good. How about entry fee's and winner takes say 90% of the pot?
____
Christian Hall That would also be good. The only problem I see is this.
I enter in and send 50k.
You enter in and send 50k.
Then I make a CPM listing of a ship I have. I make my friend get the listing and take the screen shot. I then repeat this ten more times in a day and win.
BUT This doesn't really matter, because it still decreases the average....just dishonestly..and you get 10%.... So If I were you I wouldn't sweat that though. It just makes things go down faster.
_______
Kyran Khaos Yeah that's true. I'm all about honesty so I think that's down the drain. We could however do this.
You enter 50k as entry fee
Others enter 50k as entry fee
They look through their CPM profile and look for a sold listing that's over a week old and was listed/sold for _____ Percentage lower than average. This means that they cannot cheat because it's on their PREVIOUS listings.

Year 11 Day 309, 16:15 Thats a very good idea!
I'll check with my friends to see if they would do something like this.
