Economic Balance?!

Day 1,725, 18:21 • Published in USA Ireland • by Artaxerxes Pavonis


As I was looking up the recent changes in the Job offer market, I noticed it had greatly fallen to less than $100! from the occasional $250-300. Also, the price of WRM have increased too, the obvious result of increased demand and lower stock.

Ever since the release of the new Q7 weapons and food, there seems to be a new balance by the looks of things,

Now, I've been around the block a few more times than some of you, maybe most... And I haven't seen these economic results for a very long time. Not since V1 really. Why, I recall being paid 35 IEP (Irish Pounds) and buying Gold at some 140. (I found a few old erep notes...lol)

But with the advent of this new version of erep.. (idk which it is now...lol) the factors of supply and demand were greatly undistributed. To ease this burden, the Admins created what is commonly known as "Platobot". An pseudo-player with seemingly unlimited funds to purchase un-bought products off the market. Which we all know dumped by now some few trillions of National currencies. Albeit we don't know the specs of "Platobot" We saw this with Albania eBirth. One month later, some 100k+ NC was on the Monetary Market.

So recently Q7 was introduced (after Q6) to: 1) increase battle power and 2) reduce supply in the most (in)famous equation. Well I say power has been increased. And it seems supply has diminished significantly, as supplies are few and 3x what they were before Q7. Which is kinda annoying really, because now I have to look around to buy 40k WRM to stock my Q7 Company, lol.

So with WRM at 0.21 Q7 ain't cheap. And so we see the decrease in wages to compensate the increase of raw materials. As for Gold prices, only time will tell of the effects on the Monetary Market.

tl;dr
Well scroll back up and read it! Its been months since my last article!
