So I'm reading this thread and I've noticed that a lot of people have gone from referring to the forum currency as TBT to BTB. It wasn't like this a few months ago before I took my break xD

Sorry, carry on xD

its the BTB revolution!!
 
Try it. Even if 99% of everyone lowers their buying prices, what is to stop one person from keeping it the same and having allllll the customers? There's nothing that can be done about it. Been there, done that. It doesn't work.

Maybe it isn't that they value TBT bells so much that they put a high price on it. It's possibly because they need a certain amount of in-game bells as they don't have enough TBT bells. If I were asking for 10 million Bells and if I have 2,000 TBT Bells, I would pay 1,000 TBT Bells just to take the 10 million.

Ok be a duping "nazi" but don't ever compare something like this to racism smh people these days.

I have to admit that I'm not clueless about how serious racism is. I know what damage it has done. The reason why I compared duping crowns and Bells to something that bad is not because it's taking fun out of making money or rushing on money making, but it's for something else. I know the consequences of trading duped items for TBT Bells. Imagine if somebody was duping in-game Bells primarily to get others' TBT Bells. That's like counterfeiting money to take expensive toys and games. I know it's just a game, but it upsets the community that plays the games. So in case if you're wondering why I compared duping bells and crowns to racism, I'm only explaining how serious I take duping. But then again, racism is worse than counterfeiting, despite harsher consequences for the latter.

And I may have admitted that I am a duping Nazi, but I'm not a true one. True that I would tell people to not dupe and be serious about it, but I wouldn't go out harassing others or create threads to force people to stop duping. That's just morally wrong. So I'm only going to tell people to not do it if they choose to meet with me. It may be their game, but I wouldn't trust duping.
 
By the current rate (4mil for 100 TBT) A party Popper would cost 80 million in game bells, A chocolate cake 140 million, and a green feather 320 mil! :eek:
 
we should convert tbt into communism then we dont have to worry about tbt bells anymore

I am McCarthy 2.0. I fight against communism and duping.

Just kidding. Actually, I like the TBT Bells idea. If I had a lot of TBT Bells, I will be trading for 1 million in-game Bells for 100 TBT Bells. I won't buy TBT from others anymore, but if I sell, that's how much I will sell for. If I don't have very many, then I'm not giving away any.
 
Back when I joined 100 TBT costed 1 million IG bells, wish it would go back to that
 
I remember seeing it at 2mil and now I have to pay 4mil otherwise no ones interested, tho There is NO way I'm going to supply more than 4mil, even if I am a duper and can get bells SO easily by turnips and crowns, it's just no fair for other members that don't have those oportunities

Smartest post.
 
TBH I really don't care.

However it makes sense when you think about it.
You can instantly get millions of in game bells if you sell a 1st tier villager, sell DLC items, etc.

However you can't exactly get TBT bells as fast through these methods. It's more about the collectables, which are more rare.

Heil honesty! Heil fair play!

Haha that made me giggle. Hopefully many people can get the message and commence to lower their prices rate, those who sell the TBt would have only two options : Sell it for less (1-2 mil) Or sell none at all and earn your in-game bells just like everyone else. I didnt know posting on threads, would earn me TBT, so I'm going to start using this method more than selling for TBT.

They won't sell TBT for that low of a price, but when I do, I will sell for that price.
 
Why does this thread exist?

It will pretty much always change for the worse and nothing can be done about it.

Well, I think lots can and could be done about it. If the mods wanted to they could just ban the member for wanting to sell tbt for such high prices :p Its an exaggeration but, anything is possible.
 
Simply put, we are not going to do anything about it and never will. It is simple economics.

The prices will rise and rise until enough people are willing to sell for less, at which point the prices will begin to drop. The drop may be a very long time though thanks to the flaw in Nintendo's game where there are no ways to spend in-game bells. That is something we cannot control.
