~ I was comparing pvm and merching in the sense that only a small minority of pvmers and merchers will have alot of money ... Pvmers sell leeches but why is it not ok in your opinion for someone to buy an item and sell it for more gp? The economy is based on supply and demand ~
While it's perhaps fair to claim that some players will have more or less money, however the issue the the process by which they obtain their wealth.

With PvM, the combat mechanics are more intense compared to bankstanding, afk skilling, rockertunities, etc.

In contrast, the mechanics of merching, flipping, investing, etc., are low intensity, afk bank staking, the mechanics are unclear. It also appears to be similar to an "Unofficial Game of Chance."

So, the red flag is that the merch/flip/invest mechanics are unclear and appear to yield results that appear too good to be true, so it's a basic primary alert. Generally speaking, calculations of "street price" projections or "price checking" threads, etc., are unclear, the data is unverifiable, thus red flag.

Also, the combat mechanics yield a drop that is defined by Jagex.

In contrast, the mechanics of flipping, merching, investing, etc., appear to redistribute wealth by extracting it from other players. As such, a number of concerns are raised.

So, the mechanics of merching, flipping, investing, etc., are unclear and appear to be defined by the flip/merch/investors, or how would you describe the mechanics of flip/merch/investing? 'o.0'
Something interesting happened.

Nope they bought all those santas and failed to push the price past 1b like they thought they could. They ran out of gp. If they sold them the price would have crashed to 250-400m.


so the true supply and demand price is 250m to 400m according to your hypothetical. and the 3 players you mentioned, attempted to steal hundreds of real life time from their fellow players. real life time = gp/hr.

stealing rl time, theos said we can agree to disagree. in the social contract, is one of us right and the other wrong? is negatively affecting another's real life an objective wrong? is negatively affecting another's real life a subjective grey area. whose grey area then? everyone thinks their grey area is right, yet feels victimized by another's grey area.

failed risk, i don't consider to be the pertinent concept. it is the attempt to corner the market and steal real life time from others that is pertinent to me.

they ran out of money? ain't they ever heard of a drop in the ocean?
