Beware of a possible
Second-Age pump and dump scheme/ price manipulation
initiated with the thread
17-18-824-66199235

Why am I warning?

It already happened once in 2019 after a similar thread appeared in the item discussion section.

Mod. Tuffty
warned of price manipulation in the first thread about the same issue in 2019.

Source: See thread 17-18-156-66080645

What happened after the first thread appeared in 2019?
Prices initially rose and then crashed.

It is a clever way to cover up a pump dump scheme and price manipulation with an alleged discussion about rarity.

Price manipulation is against the rules.

Hi, I think it's pretty unfair to accuse me of price manipulation for creating a thread and posting data about clue drop rates.

I'm not sure why you feel this is price manipulation, at no point did I
- Suggest people buy any items
- Stipulate about future values of the item

All I did was present the facts I had researched about clue drop rates.

I assume you have no do issue with the accuracy of the data I posted, as you made no mention of it. Because if you thought I was manipulating the numbers to make it seem like something was more or less rare than it really is, then it certainly would be manipulation, but feel free to check them yourself.

This post is very unfair and I will be reporting you.

I ask you to please stay friendly.

It is obvious and well known, that high value items with low frequency trading frequency are prone to price manipulations. Thats a neutral observation and knowledge about such markets nobody can deny.
A repost of something that has impacted prices in 2019 as a new post can be interpreted as fooling people who don't know the old thread (which is easy to find).
It has a "bad taste" associated, as the thread title, as well posted information is almost identical.

the old thread's title is "How Rare is Second Age Armor?"
the new thread's title is "How rare is second age?"
I probably don't need to add more to it.

Your intention does not determine effects of your post which is a price manipulation by itself. It does not matter to hold or not to hold the item, which we cannot check.

Thank you for answering to my thread, but I do not believe that it is the right thing to induce a pump and dump cycle even if not intentionally.

Lol

Highlighting the fact that 1k BSH were released and they are valued at 18b, where as there are apparantly less that 100 2a coifs and they are 85m, that would be manipulation.

This guy just posted some numbers, interpret them how you want.
