Apparently, there is one or more users buying off kins in the MP even if they are quite inflated. Someone has a ton of expensive kins and just made of with a 25T purchase of a Crimson Ember. Someone has a lot of gold to burn. Is it all legit?
We also seem to have an inflation bubble. Transient or winter is coming?

Said person posted a thread about it in the main forum (some of her language is borderline sexually explicit), and included of picture of her inventory of horded kin. At least 67 Sakuras in her inventory.
There is a chance that her gold comes from killing trees all day every day (the first post on her account a few days ago was to inform Chidori Rain that she opened 1500 Sycamorte seeds).

★ All I can say is, wow. If you want to artificially inflate something, fine that's your deal. The language and "bragging" about trashing a Crimson Ember though? Rather unneeded. :/

That's SUPER frustrating especially when she's asking for the other Crimson Ember foxes so she can delete them too...

Guess I've missed that to read it. sweatdrop
Anyway, dunno who this player is but that's a lot of gold to burn.
Not to mention, what she did to the Crimson Fox just makes it MORE rare if she tries to get all the Crimson Foxes and delete it. Good luck trying to take my Crimson Ember and delete it. I worked too hard to obtain it. >8V

Erynne LadyThornRose The threads have been deleted. Conspiracy theories abound. Oh. Was it deleted for explicit content or there was some hanky-panky going around with hacking or , I wonder?From what I've seen, buying all of the rare kin like that is against the ToS, and deleting the crimson ember so publicly violates something in the ToS, and something in the thread in general might have been against the ToS, and most people don't think that the trillions and trillions and trillions of gold used to buy the kin was obtained legally. It's all around shady, and possible that the user was banned, and the fate of the kin hoarded is in the air. This has been your daily dose of drama.

If it were some hack and the user got banned, would the community then have lost access to all those kins in the inventory? Maybe, if so, the admins could just release them into Flynn's Plunder as a mega kin sale. lol Was the Crimson Fox in the MP actually deleted? A waste.

I sort of doubt it's against to buy all those kins and do whatever you want with them unless you used illegally obtained funds. If the admins do feel it's that maliciously done, they should step in. But then, they might view it as a way to sell more of the kins in the CS. sweatdrop

If the user is hacker and got banned, those who got their kin sold will have their trade pass disable and Gaia will have to do an investigate to figure out what kin the users sold and how much gold it was brought. Gaia staff will take the hacked gold out of the user's account and will try to negotiate with the user if they want their kin back or an item as an apology for what had happened. Dunno about the Crimson Fox. If it did deleted, Gaia maybe bring another one in its place?

Like, buying them all just so that no one else could. And then her entire thread fit the site's definition of "trolling."

Dunno about the Crimson Fox. If it did deleted, Gaia maybe bring another one in its place? That's true. That person did introduce several trillions into the economy. There were precedents where people who sold hacked items through credit card fraud or other illegal means had their victims' trading passes temporarily disabled and the transactions reversed. I wonder if this person was using this exploit in Switchem? There was this account posting threads and responses giving out codes for the exploit a few days ago. I think there was this thread where that user's mule was responding to accusations of shadowy actions a couple of nights ago. I hope there is some resolution. Too bad the staff will never let people know what they've done with that person in question due to their privacy policies. Would have loved to see what they'd say in the AtS for instance. Still, were the outrage public enough, they will have to address it somehow like they did before.

Like, buying them all just so that no one else could. And then her entire thread fit the site's definition of "trolling." The context is the important thing. If I had trillions of legal gold, I may do something like that, but just hoard them. I am not doing anything illegal if I used legit gold. Nothing was said specifically regarding creating monopolies to create artificial scarcity. I once thought there had been though to be honest. I think that already happens on a daily basis, but not so blatantly. Except for the Crimson Fox, everything else is potentially available to be rereleased at anytime. In fact, that does work to the advantage of the marketing team of the site. It would just be a foolhardy investment on my part. Since that person was using the action to actively and publicly troll people, then the context would be in the light of someone disrupting the enjoyment of other people, which is covered in the ToS.
