![]() ![]() Answering either question implicitly agrees with the facts not in evidence hence the proper answer is to not answer the question until it is phrased properly. Mine assumed that you beat your wife, yours lacked the circumstances of the trade. We both asked questions that assumed facts not in evidence. I guess you didn't get it, so now it's my turn to dumb it down for you. It was the simplest way to illustrate the fallacy of you asking a question and insisting on a yes / no answer with no qualifications. If you're referring to the question I asked you, I didn't say a word about what you should do. Seems like you are busy answeting charges that were never made. Really? Where? I missed where someone told you to stop beating your wife. Why would Inno do this? Probably to avoid having to answer customer service complaints saying "I accidentally added a "0" to my trade and gave away 1000 X for 100 Y (same age)" THey are not designed to favor a particular ratio, but rather to avoid the massive imbalances that could come from someone not paying attention and accidentally posting a trade that falls far outside the 1:2 through 2:1 band. However, once you recognize that there is no universally accepted definition of "fair", Inno's limits should make clear sense to you. That is a choice for every guild to make. Some guilds have adopted 2 for 1, others use a trade calculator that attempts to better equalize the costs of production. There is nothing intrinsically fair or unfair about that ratio. If my entire guild has agreed on 2 for 1 across a single age, it means I have no reason to hold out for a better deal, and no reason to try and profit by offering a less favorable deal. The reason for standing trade ratios is not to promote "fair" trade, but rather orderly trade. That could be 10 dye for 5 plankton, or it could be 10 dye for 10 plankton, or it could be 5 dye for 10 plankton. "Fair" is what a willing offeror and a willing buyer are willing to accept. The fact that you reference a "fair trade calculator" and that you belong to a "fair trade guild" doesn't alter that basic reality. The real issue with your proposal is that it rests on a fundamentally flawed premise, namely that there is some objectively "fair" ratio for trading. ![]()
