Tradeable silk items coming to ISRO!

ltsune · **Joined:** Mar 2008 **Posts:** 5751 **Location:**

So yeah, I can't understand if nobody noticed this yet, but I checked through the newest threads and I didn't see a comment about it yet!

On the new event start page regarding the new item mall it says this:

Quote:

We made most of the items which can be bought by Premium Silk are tradeable, in order to provide more streamlined gameplay experience

So yeah, if I'm not mistaking, this means that we'll now be able to trade most silk items in isro (finally). What are your thoughts about it? Do you think it will entirely fack up the economy? Or do you believe it will actually "streamline" the gameplay, as Joymax says?

Personally I believe this will increase the amount of scams in the game. People will try to sell these premium silks for in-game items and stuff. Nevertheless, I'm really gladly surprised by this update :dope:

No, how can ppl scam if the silk items WILL be traded for much less than 1b? I mean, who would be so dumb to buy a prem + for that much money?!

It's interesting for those who can't buy silks but could increase the gold demand/RL money trades.

BTW, Isro will open a new silk system, "Premiun Silks", which can only be purchased with E-pin or any non-refundable payment solutions. Also it's said that they will allow to trade some silk items (we don't know the list) that were bought by premiun silks.

This might be a weak attempt on joymax part to mitigate gold selling....

What do you mean by posting this? It's not even about the same topic

Anyway, yeah, it might be them, trying to stop the goldselling. But anyway, I'm just glad they're actually doing something nowadays, I believe we should appreciate that!

Lol.

But that update is good. Now people that have bought silk, will buy gold instead so their money won't go to Joymax, that is, if the gold prices will be lower than buying silk. But still someone has to purchase silk in order to get silk items to sell to anyone, so it shouldn't make any difference to JM. Maybe people who will be stalling silk items, will make JM's income bigger cos they will buy many items regularly.

When you go to the buy silk screen you get a choice to buy Regular Silk or Premium Silk. Premium Silk can only be got by e-pin. Regular silk can only be bought by Paypal, Moneybookers etc.

So sadly the turks and arabs get to trade items. The only english e-pin is playspan.

There goes the economy.

You can also use paysafeCards and other cards. Besides, Playspan and paysafecard should be enough options, I believe. You can buy playspan points via paypal anyway

One of them supports Joymax, who after all created this game, the other one supports gold-selling companies.

Might be. But it depends on how the prices and the economy of the servers are/are gonna be.

Gladiator_RN · **Posted:** Wed Nov 10, 2010 5:57 pm

It will take a while before the prices of these items will go down. Always the same.

From what I saw, the only things you can't trade are the Prem tickets, and SP tickets.

It's just another way of buying gold.

ltsune · **Joined:** Mar 2008 **Posts:** 5751 **Location:**

Maybe, but at least it's a legit way to buy gold, heroo!
