What do you do to keep trading fun? - jxie93 - 11-21-2009 I think the name of this topic should be: "What do you do to keep power trading fun?, Because im bored sick of it and 300m short of my goal." Powertrading is supposed to be boring. If you window mode trade, the least you could do is to RP an AI controlled trade ship.

What do you do to keep trading fun? - Bobthemanofsteel - 11-21-2009 I play windowed. but only to keep up with IMs, the forums, etc. I lead a very busy online life! XD Even still, when playing, Disco takes priority, and I feel my RP isn't lacking when trading. What do you do to keep trading fun? - Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever - 11-21-2009 I mean usually I can make 100,000,000$ in a day, in which I'd have my far goal of 1,500,000,000$ in about 11 days, but Im just SO bored with trading... What makes trading powertrading? Having a goal to get to and trading for it? Bah. Nothing to motivate me anymore... ugh...:( What do you do to keep trading fun? - jxie93 - 11-21-2009 ' Wrote:I mean usually I can make 100,000,000$ in a day, in which I'd have my far goal of 1,500,000,000$ in about The most expensive and useless cap in the mod? Barge doesn't really count cos you're given it. Otherwise.. Interact, RP with people, giving them money, donate to the Angels, instead of grinding credits in your powertrader.

So by all means have a goal, just do not forsake everything else in persuit of it. And as you can see, there is a plethora of reasons for powertraders to be dispised by all. Seriously, if you want to make money fast, join a trading/mining faction, at least then you will be involved in some RPing, not just silent grinding, plus, in an active Bowex/BMM mining operation, i can -easily- make over 30 mil an hour while having fun and chatting with people. Compare that with making barely 25 mil an hour while having no fun at all, and RPing with no one.

In short, the only way to prevent the tedium of powertrading, as exciting as it may be, is to join a faction. Seriously, if you dont, you will die of boredom. |
