Kinda shocked really, before the downtime it was nearly 75 silver for 100 gems and now it’s dropped to 55 silver for 100 gems.

Was it not locked in place or something before the downtime?, it’s a 20 silver drop in that 4 hours. I mean it was almost 75 right before the downtime and now 55 right after it.

They probably altered a parameter in their completely contrived algorithm that sets the price.

Yeah it’s really weird, taking it down should not cause such a big drop in such a short period of time. And if it does then the system should be changed to stopped it from happening.

Basically i had to wait for the downtime to be over to get my gems added to convert them, but now due to the downtime i will get a lot less than i would have if the downtime hadn’t happened – it’s not right.

Just checked support, fortunatly there is refunds on gem purchases if they haven’t been used, i recon i’ll be doing that (if it doesn’t go back up in the next few hours).

Now incase anyone says “well the gem to gold market does go up and down”, i have no issue with that when the gem market is up and running, but it certainly shouldn’t go down by that much when the gem market is closed to buying/converting gems.
