Credit market speculation (buying up credits being sold at a low price then listing them at a higher one) has been a constant battle for us over the years. We've tried a few solutions over that time but none of them have really worked out well. Unfortunately its become a growing trend again, so we've put some new measures in place that we hope will limit people's ability to do this while not impacting people using the credit market in a standard way overly much. Here are the changes:

1. You can no longer buy credits while you have credits up for sale. We don't really see many reasons people would need to do this outside of speculation.

2. Listing credits on the market (at the time of listing, not selling) now costs 10% of the total list price up front. We are aware this will drive up some prices, but we also anticipate prices going down considerably without artificial price inflation from people reselling. So as not to impact the typical useage we see, the first fifty credits you list in an Achaean month (resetting at Serenade) do not have this list price.

Enjoy!
