Corruption suggestion.

Jeff, I would like your input, but on recent discussion with one of my fellow rwk comrades, I brainstormed a few suggestions for making corruption different.

1. Make it so that corruption caps at 500mil per kd with 48 hour combo and 99 kms, meaning if you have over 1000 kds you still gain at least 500 mil per kd.
2. Increase the amount of kds one char can hold to 2500 before it is affected by corruption.
3. If you don't have 48 hour combo, you aren't affected by corruption.
4. Increase the cap of kds to 2500 before corruption and make corruption be 10% per 100 kds.
5. A use for gold, allowing you to trade 250b gold for say, 1000 ash or something.

These are only modest suggestions, but I think some of them may help. Large plexholders deserve to gain more gold than smaller plexholders because they worked harder to get it. You don't see small one man companies making billions of dollars more than large multinational companies. Same rule should apply here. If you have more kds you should get more gold rather than the opposite as it seems has happened. The way the updates have gone, it is like saying that somebody could open a one man business and compete against multinational companies. Rules of capitalism suggest that it would fail. Rules of communism suggest that everybody is equal whether they are a one man company or a multinational company. If you read this, please provide some feedback. Thanks for your time.

actually, i happen to like the idea of trading 250b gold for 1k ash.

as inticing as this idea seems twin. i think it would ruin the game, 250 bil for 1k ash . jebus. every noob will be full shadowed then and well an overabundance of D*Ds would be puked into the economy, it would just wreck the game, i fail to see how making uber suits acquirable to everyone would be a good thing.
ash used to be worth something, if this idea is implemented it would be worthless. i mean you can save up all those 250 bils and get an eeoash for what 6-8 tril now, probably lower. That and playing poker and ashing with dark harvest already makes it pathetically easy to get ash, if you play.
on a side note, id like an update that allows you to quest for an eeoash, ie: if you have 50k in your pocket you can trade an eeot to the ash changer and get an eeoash in return, thereby making it easier to trade and sell or w/e.

You dont want that, so many people can abuse the one purchase per person/char on the eeoash

why wouldnt i want that ?
it has nothing to do with buying eeoashes. its to do with 50k ash that you've gotten from ashing and poker, it would be nice to be able to make it into an eeoash so you can trade it... i fail to see how this would effect the one eeosh per week or whatever it is.
you might think that they can turn the eeoash in that they buy, make it an eeoash again and still be able to buy more eeoashes that week. i seriously doubt jeff would allow this, he's pretty smart and if he decided to do this im sure he would have failsafes added for this purpose specifically.

I was thinking more along the lines of one person buying the no trade eeoash under one name. Then he buys another in some other name and based on what you suggested, he could change his other no trade eeoash into a regular eeoash to give to his first account, thus abusing the limit.

no. as i said above jeff would tweek this so they couldnt do that.

Ok, first.
You could have used maths and worked out that it would be 12.5 tril per 50k ash, not 6 - 8. Second, price of ash is (at least on S2) between 100 and 200 mil per. This would enable you to buy quick ash at a higher price than the set one. Also, this is pretty much already possible, just buy a PE.

Second, the trading 50k ash for an EEoA is stupid. You could make 1283719283 poker mules and acquire swimsuit votes / poker on them for like a year, then trade all the EEoA's to your main and instead of a whole lot of ash you can use for pokering or D*Dev swaps, you suddenly have enough to make another character.

Who would sit there for 16 hours a day buying ash in auction for 100 mil per? It is easier to get more ash from ashing in that respect. But I figured at 250b for 1000 ash, that is 250 mil per ash hence the price for ash should theoretically double. As for the PE for 1000 ash, there aren't enough PLAs floating around yet or available each month to get a bunch of D*Dvs flooding into the market, and even if there were, I do not think it would wreck the game in a short term, it would take a lot to wreck the game that way. I figure the only way to exploit this is for the large plexholders with gold in thousands of runes would craft it out and make a few dozen DDs and sell them. That would be a lot of work, and I highly doubt somebody with 10,000 or more kds at 20 runes each is going to move their hundreds of trillions of gold just for that. That is just my thoughts on the matter.

Most people both buy and hunt ash at the same time.

Firstly, I've never payed more than 10t for an EEoA, I usually pay between 6-10 t on S1, no clue what S2 prices are. Gold on S1 sells for like $5/tril.

Secondly, Jeff fixed the swimsuit abuse issue on S1, you can get a swimsuit vote like once every 4 days or something. So it would be pretty impossible to do what you are saying in aspect to swimsuit votes.

Finally, that's kind of the ideal. It would make ash harvesting a lot more fun. I just want to be able to talk to the ash changer , trade him an EEoT and have him take my 50k ash and turn it into an eeoash. Like say you had 4 eeoash, and not paying attention turned in all 4 instead of just the 3 you wanted to, you could pm the ash changer and get your eeoash back. Jeff could set all sorts of limits on this, like only 1 eeoash change per month, or 1 eeoash change per IP per month. It would be very easy to control this so it doesn't get abused.

This may seem retarded to people like you who are obviously superior in intelligence, but I like it.

Some good ideas Channy, it would be nice to make some kinda ability for having ash be tradable so that the 15,000 ash on s2 isn't going to waste. Maybe one day I will try to buy ash while also harvesting and see how far I get in a certain time period. But I think it'd be easier to trade 250b for 1000 ash than it would be to trade 250 mil per ash item, then have to burn it all.

You can still do one swimsuit vote per 24 hours..

Price of EEoA's has nothing to do with it, I'm just saying at 250b / 1k ash, it would be 12.5t for 50k ash worth, not 6 - 8.

As for ash changing, assuming it does get implemented, it should be far more than an EEoT. Perhaps 55k ash to make an EEoA.

since jeff made changes im lucky if i can vote for my swimsuit once a week.

k i get what you're saying i think. you're saying paying 250 bil per 1k ash is retarded because it would work out that you are spending more than you would if you just bought an eeoash. right? cause thats what i was saying. I buy eeoashes for 6-8 tril, i wasnt saying thats the going rate. im just saying i think 250 bil for 1 tril is a waste of gold. 12.5 t in total to get the equivalent of a 6-8 t purchase. seems silly, idk.

k 55k and an eeogt, would that make you happy?

It's probably because if you try again within 24 hours, then the count resets. You must wait more than 24 hours before doing it again.
