    Yea you dropped 500,000 in one day and you've gained like 150,000

    Why don't you just get rid of your credits out of the system it will help GR out you know and it will be another 150,000 less :D

    Simple .... dem you should just remove your credits ;)

    Because unlike others, I spend my credits, I don't sit on them, if I did I would be sitting at well over 300-400,000 credits.

    I like to keep the marketplace moving so to speak, but removing them isn't hard either, just not as beneficial to new users, which is my main goal in buying good items, making tuts and putting them up for free or sell a couple tuts and sigs for learning rights.

    you realize that on average the steal item is a gamble and since it costs money to play it averages a LOSS if you use it.

    as in


    the item costs 1500 in and of itself

    then if you try to take 5000 creds
    2/3 times you get it. +5000
    1/3 times you get FINED -10,000

    average amount of creds gained by stealer - 0

    average amount of creds out of the system - 4833

    Funny renwick, you were involved almost as equally in credit stealing as everyone else, seeing as thats the only way for you to go negative in credits.

    Hes been suspended for 5 days for the cursing in his thread. No he hasnt been banned.

    However, very funny, hes gonna complain that he was robbed...but yet he managed to maintan enough credits to purchase the item, and then attempt to do this....

    Failed stealing 2564 from aphex

    For shame. Next time, dont complain about something you yourself took part in.

    One thing to put into perspective. A lot of people complained about how many credits that were being put into circulation. They complained about how expensive things got because of this. And now we have something that takes away credits from circulation and still they complain. There really isn't any way to get credits out of the system unless there's a tax. People suggested it and it was implemented, via the bank. And I'm guessing the bank was made because no one would give a large amount of their credits willingly to be taken out of the system.

    Either you use the bank so things will get cheaper, or you don't use it, complain, and things will still be expensive.


    I didn't know that people can try to steal from you. How is this possible? Account hacking?

    Oh snap! Didn't know that. If you get caught, you get suspended? How do you not get caught?

    Doesn't work when they're depleting members of credits they've PAID FOR. However, having seen how many people chucked a fit over the bank, I can't wait to see them get whats coming. I banked all my credits.

    Good thing and a bad thing, this stealing thingo.

    @ Lost, you're allowed to do it, doesn't matter if you get caught or not, the reason he got banned was for the language in the post is all.

    Just curious, does it tell you who stole the credits or tried to?

    edit: Also, I reckon it would be better if all the credits were wiped clean to 0 or 100 or some new number and people had to work the credits back up, with exception of those who paid money and what not. Would up the value and get rid of the inflation, + it would be fun to work em all back up again. *Wait's to be flamed by the "z0mg i did all the h4rd w0rk 2 g3t th0s3 cr3d1ts buuuttt!11!1!1!!!!*

    edit2: nvm that idea, lol
