Or at least people who were online between Saturday and Monday.Or nobody gets anything.

Your compensation split the related community into three parties. On Tuesday everyone was happy that you brought the server back. The progress of the weekend was saved. With your decision today, however, you split the community. The first group stayed offline during troubleshooting on Monday and did not get a Compansation. That is still ok. The second group played on Monday. Absolutely unaware of the server problems. They have lost progress and have been compensated. That is still ok. Then there is the third group. They were aware of the problems and still went online. For example, to suicide actions in Lion arch. They also got a skin worth 100g+. This is not fair to the first group. Please don't split the community with such decisions. Either compensation for everyone who played from Saturday to Monday or none at all. Look at the current threads.The community is bashing each other.Is this your aim as a great game developer? Best regardsThakis

It's the wrong sign to the community. The next time something like this happens again, I will log in and do as much work as possible. The goal is to get compensation too. However, if you want to support, you will not be rewarded. It's OK if people get compensation if they lost progress.But even if you just log in to die in lion arch you get a skin worth several hundred gold.

@Cuks.8241I disagree. I specifically ask for goods with a possible profit of 1-5%.Too low to be interesting for 99.999% of all users.For me, that would be already a three-digit profit. @Linken.6345I don't want to invest my real mony to increase my wealth ingame.Or do I misunderstand you? @"Valandil Dragonhart.2371"How does your comment help?This is a "Players help Players" thread. @"Bassdeff.1895"I know how it works.But you miss my point.I quote my self again (or see above in another comment from me):

@Cyninja.2954I've already given the answer but some post were deleted by the admins.I investet in t6 leather few years ago. @Tanner Blackfeather.6509 and @lare.5129for sure, most people recommend the investment in gems but even if you wait three years you don't get a profit if you change gems back to gold. (comparrision between jan 17 and jan 20)@lare.5129I hope you read my other posts. I already mentioned that there is a lot in this game for me to achieve. I don't even have the achievement "The Emperor's New Wardrobe". (I hope it's the right name in english)So why shouldn't I invest my money and buy things with my profit?The alternative would be to spend all my money instead of investing.After three months I would be broke if I have no income. @Sobx.1758We had a TP-Nerd in our guild for a few years. He had also a high rank in our hierarchy and enjoyed high trust. I guess his net worth is over 100k gold. We also had someone in the guild who stoped playing gw2 and gave away his Legys. Our guild was amazing :)I bought leather for - i guess - 40c and sold it for 20-30s.As I sad, it was just luck...a very profitable one. If I had invested in Mithril instead, I would be poor now. @Lan Deathrider.5910thank you for the feedback :)a large upfront cost wouldn't be a showstopper for me.

@voltaicbore.8012So why are you commenting in this thread if you don't want to help me?@Danikat.8537I totally agree with your first answer but you and the other readers here forget one important point.I don't want to know the next best selling item. Items that could make a net profit of over 50, 100, or even 1000 %.I know nobody will share this kind of information in forums like this and that's totally ok. I'm interested in items with a small but steady growth (if they exist). Items with just 1-5 % net profit. Too small to be interesting for people like @voltaicbore.8012 .Or would you invest 5 hours just to get 1 % profit of your current wealth? I guess not. For me it would be already 100 g.That's the point and this is the reason why I opened this thread. Not to ask for the next big thing but for the small and consistent one.

@CaelestiaEmpyrea.2617Unfortunately, most people misunderstand me. Also in the german GW2 forum.I'm not interested in getting as much gold as possible.I just want a safe investment. A few percent of profit is already sufficient for me. The money is spent faster than it's earned.If I decide to level the crafting disciplines from 400 to 500 and then forge one or the ascended gears, current sigils and runes I'll need >1000 Gold.So why not invest the money if I currently do nothing with it? It is the same in real life.Therefore it's not about earning money but to compensate my future expenditure. Edit:@Sobx.1758I don't know exactly. I guess I bought T6 leather back in 2015. Waited one or two years and sold it.But I'm not sure. It''s been a few years.

@Sobx.1758crafting material :)

Hello everyone, a few years ago I was very lucky to invest 250-500 gold and make a profit of 11-13k gold in the trading post.It was a one-time deal based on a tip from a trusted guild member. That was three years ago. Since then I haven't invested in anything and only spend money.Do you have a long-term investment strategy so that I can at least cover my expenditures?For me it should be safe and take little time. I only play a few hours a month.Even a net growth of just 1-2% per month would be sufficient for my investment. best regardsThakis
