Same is happening with me and my partner on FR

I think the reason of prices falling down is the fact that there are not many new members
People are losing interest because the members are very slowly, but certainly, gaining many of the non starter breeds or gened dragons
Which makes people lose interest in Dragon Sales and causes the prices to spiral down
Also, Fairgrounds can still be extremely glitchy, and Runestones occasionally continues to crash
So it might be just the troubles of making Treasure as well, to afford Reserves and Dragons
Once there are new members, I think the economy might get better

I also had trouble with my Hatchery thread, so I had to lower my prices a lot, at first 180K for a Double Gened Spiral, and now 150K, I also made deals with others to sell them at 110K... But that's how desperate I was for Treasure xDD

Luckily, my slots eventually got full, and are full again with my second litter, I guess its just finding the right people too, and trying to get interest by prices and colors

Personally, I like to see what I am going to purchase before I pay, so breeding threads where you pay without knowing what you're going to get exactly is not appealing. Also, many threads have many slots and then end up with less eggs than they sold slots for so the possibility of long wait times is a turn off. In the time you wait for a hatchling, many times, you could have found it and bought it already in the AH or trade forum. Also, right now the supply of dragons is way greater than the demand. Everyone is breeding themselves and way fewer are buying. Once new registration opens up again, it will probably be a bit better, for awhile at least. :thumbup:

    { It seems to be happening all over but it's incredibly frustrating all the same OTL
    Personally I think new members will help for a short period of time, but simply by rule of dragon reproduction rates I think even the "rare" breeds aren't going to be rare for long.

    What do you guys think about making exalting more profitable and beneficial to users? If more dragons are exalted I figure that means less are available on the market and prices will even out. There was some talk about the same thing happening on Mweor and that it was fixed by a group of people who got together and did the equivalent of exalting. It's really controversial though, but I'm interested to hear what you guys think about something like that.

    As in, not just bonuses to a collective Flight for exalting, but on an individual basis as well (brilliant suggestion for this can be read about here)

- No Rare dragon breed wishes
- No wishing for gem items
- You may wish for gems though but limit to 50 gems at a time
- No breed change scroll wishes
- If you no longer want a gift, you MUST gift it to another person (not sell it)
- Try to gift someone who hasn't gotten a gift yet
- No wishing for treasure
- Once both your wishes are granted, you may post a new wish

i think they might want to edit the rules just for now to include uncommons and limited breeds ^^' the only rare breed is WC

It would be amazing if exalting had more benefits on the user themselves
I feel like exalting a dragon for only 2K is hardly enough, I would request at least 4K or 5K, because honestly, I feel bad if I have to exalt a dragon, thus why I sometimes give them away for free, and also their price is not that tempting
I don't have time to level up my dragons in the Coli sometimes, and I think maybe a few items along with the Treasure would be amazing when you exalt a dragon, perhaps a lucky chance at getting a Rare item
I don't exalt dragons because you hardly get much, even if you do help out with your Flight
But sometimes your Flight hardly wins anyway (Unless you're Ice x3)
I don't believe Wind won yet... And if they did, I must have missed out a ton xDD
