So it does not occur to anyone that said Staff member cannot play on the site as a user-member, earn gold the same way as the rest of us and buy/use said ticket just like the rest of us. I also do not understand the reason for the very high price (unless item is not really worth that much and just assumed to be that by some people in the hyper-inflated economy), but it is the decision of that person to pay it just the same as the rest of us.
As I've stated before:
Staff purchased the ticket to remove it from the system. What other reason would there be?
The user that was taking offers on the ticket only got offers of about 3-4 halos worth. This user just had 133 trillion gold dropped in to their lap which is equivalent to 66 halos. All that time and effort to REMOVE gold from the system (as 133 trillion is equivalent to 2-3 gold sinks) is now in the hands of only 1 user on Gaia.
How did Artists get this gold? You can't surely tell me they received it from commissions on the site.. or from exchanging? Look at the artist's marketplaces.
Gold Grants. There can only be one option. Admin gold grants. This is why the gold is deemed legitimate.
They DO NOT grant themselves gold. They would get in trouble for that.
And you are assuming there aren't any members who do not have that much gold or items "worth a whole lot" when even I know there are people who are really "wealthy". B R A I N managed to get a ticket or two and he is/was one of the wealthiest members on Gaia. Way so much more than you and I.
You THINK they don't grant themselves gold, but you do know that as FACT?
If an admin grants someone gold/items, they are deemed legitimate. Unless you know some other way a busy Gaian artist would make their money that doesn't include: Vending (because none of them have a high enough total in gold to reach even 1 trillion), Exchanging (none of them have posted exchange threads), or Commissions (because artists aren't able to open/maintain shops on Gaia.) then please do enlighten me.
BRAIN managed to be GIVEN a ticket from someone who PULLED it from a RIG. That is not the same as purchasing a ticket.
You THINK they grant themselves gold but do you know that as a FACT? Because if not your entire argument means absolutely nothing.
Why would they generate gold when doing so harms the very company they work for? That seems really ridiculous. As for how they could have made money without the accounts you looked at having proof of that sort of income THEY COULD HAVE MORE MULE ACCOUNTS! Did you seriously not take that into consideration?
