    Like I actually Like actually Want to know...What is so bad about giving a player dirt, or sand?

    Why do you get permanently banned for giving your friend a water bucket?

    Why is 'Illegal Trade' such a big deal?

    *EDIT* so why does giving a player a bucket get you perm banned? It's only 3 ingots. you can craft it. if it were dirt, I could understand because you can't craft dirt... but a bucket..?

    Thoughts?

    We don’t need people island farming. That’s why there are trading rules.

    Honestly people need to figure out that the economy of net is literally messed up and has been since rollbacks and ban list clearing was a thing. The players created opinions based on their own greed and incorrect logic. And before the economy nuts get triggered at me... I can guarantee you weren't there when players would make up prices for everything then the "new price" spread like wildfire. You have no idea why diamond and grass prices changed. You have not idea why the prices are the way they are. But I played through it all.

    Long story short you might as well just aim to build instead of find glory in being rich.

    I mean i'm just asking a question :( I stopped playing Minecraft for like 3 years from 2013-2016 so I'm sorry i don't remember all the details from 2012/2013 smh my head

    I guess what I'm more leaning toward is why you can get permanently banned by giving your friend a bucket. Like actually you can craft that with 3 iron ingots-Whats so bad about a bucket?

    Kind of the opposite, it’s the idiots willing to pay the price, not the people who made the price. If no one bought at the new high prices they would go back down. Research the greater fools theory.

    Good way to put it. Since it takes two to tango, it’s a bit of both. Idiots pay high prices and people take advantage or people made the prices in hopes people would pay, then the prices spread

    Yea but the market would adjust itself if people would control themselves and wait to buy whatever item they have their eye on. The funny thing is it takes one dealer to move he prices up (because everyone else copies) but it takes collaboration between all potential buyers to move them down.
