Our enemies reason that their spiteful leak & crashing our allies are only because they believe we hold a monopoly over warbands.

The economic term monopoly , is given to a firm which has over 25% of the market share, usually when one organisation dominates a large proportion of the market.
However, what we find hypocritical is that our enemies have just as much participants as us, who have similar goals of looting warband camps. Our rivals share just as much total members yet still reason that we are the monopoly which is reason for them to crash our allies.

We believe that it's time to flip the tables, we are no longer a monopoly, we promote team work and unity as allies, to fend off what is now a large monopoly of FCs without putting much effort in must be given a fight from us.

I'd like to point out that isn't the definition of a monopoly it appears you've just pulled out that number and slapped it on this thread to try to make a point. WBG did monopolise WBs by being the only entity offering the services to be able to WB safely and effectively and, as by the definition of a monopoly, without competition.

If anything WBs now exist as an oligopoly with their only being 3-7 organisations which compete for camps and offer the services. To say that PKS is the new monopoly is complete misinformation - or are you declaring that the other organisations within WBs offer no competition so that PKS acts as a uncompeted monopoly? Which would again imply that yourself and other organisations offer no resistance.

NB - I realise this is a recruitment thread but if it contains absolute completely erroneous information I feel it necessary to point it out.

I did say as an economic term.. that's the definition of a monopoly..
As an Economic student, I can tell you, a monopoly is when a firm gains a market share of 25% or more . Don't believe me? Google it..You shouldn't make such posts accusing me of making statistics up, if you have not even made an effort to check it for yourself.

Please avoid posting further messages if your aim is only to poke out what you disagree with, in what was a clear, valid statement, which obviously you know nothing about..

Therefore, my point of PKS being a "monopoly" is completely valid as such more than 25% of the Warband community are from within PKS FCs . I merely stated that PKS is as big as a monopoly as what WBG was.

Can we avoid further offtopicing on this thread, if you feel the need to consult what is written on this thread, please do so with me ingame, as this thread is strictly for recruitment and not for discussion of what a monopoly is.

Thank you.

WBG has more than 25% too though? That means that WBG is still a monopoly. I thought there could only be 1 monopoly per market?

Perhaps WBG is still a monopoly in it's current state, but as you may know, with our rework to our alliance, we believe we are moving away from that state. Please allow us time, as said this thread is still in construction and we would prefer it if you would give us time before jumping at our plans and ideas.

And I suppose in theory, it's possible for their to be multiple monopolies within a market, assuming 2 or more firms hold more than 25% each of the market share? Though it is usually just the one or largest which is categorised as the monopoly.

Back on thread topic plox.
