Hypothetically, but let's just say I haven't gotten one PM about changing a price, even after this entire thread

Conclusion: don't bother.


well, i would've sent a pm except for the fact that i have already listed the item that i was questioning in the creation of the topic.
i still think that it's a good thing to have as a point of reference.

as a side note, i actually started cross-referencing with JellyNeo's item database in order to double-check prices. Neocodex can't be beat in terms of buyables, of course, but what i did find, is that most of the UBs are priced very similarly to how they are priced here, but some differ by around 1m. conclusion? prices fluctuate, and if unattended for more than 6 months, the prices in the db are bound to be at least slightly incorrect. if there are people that are willing to do it, why not let them?

What exactly needs to be changed right now? Any item in particular? It's already been suggested you ought to post prices in this thread: http://www.neocodex....age__p__1364744 where someone who is able to update prices will see it and then update as needed. Seems to me if you really cared about the prices, you'd have done that with price discrepancies you've found instead of continuously asking for rules to be changed so you can do special things.

I'm not trying to shit in your cereal, but have you PM an admin about your idea for a pricing group? (Which is not an idea I'm totally against) I'm sure if you present it in a reasonable and convincing way, they'd take it into consideration. But to be honest, from what I've seen, I'm not convinced you're right for the job.  Of course, I'm just a plebe, but that's what I think.

i'm not trying to get myself a second full time job, nor would i want to be the only person monitoring the integrity of the prices. the only thing i was suggesting in this entire thread, is a community interaction for updating outdated prices. that is all.
also, the questions in this thread were for future references, not for current ones. it was an issue that i encountered and wanted to figure out if it can be resolved. and now, it has been. thank you all for participating.

and my cereal tastes better without feces, thank you :)
