That's also the reason I try to stay away from inflating. I find it scary enough to have to transfer smalltime amounts of bank. Going up against people like Mike and Gio just to get some virtual numbers added to my nations stats, no thank you.

Even varanius inflated your cards.

Your point being?
I collect a massive region collection of 6849 S2 cards of The Pacific. Statisticly speaking it's not that weird that about 50 of those cards have been inflated as of now. Especially as 99% of that inflating has happened long after I collected those card. I don't like it, but there is nothing I can do about it.

I'm not involved in the card market seriously at all, I junk anything under epic because I like having a fancy collection and I started buying my own cards as a joke, and built a pretty nice collection.
I started inflating my card's value because I'd heard it can make your next season's card a higher rarity, not because of any sinister motivation, I wasn't intending on selling them off or manipulating anything else, I just wanted a fancy border on my card when S3 rocks around.
I'm now broke, without enough bank to even expand my deck capacity, and the advice in this thread is 'suck it up or heist someone else'.
I mess around with NationStates in my breaks at work because it's a fun passive thing I can work on over time, now I've been shafted and there's buggerall I can do about it. I don't have the time to invest in heisting anyone else, and it's a scummy practise that I don't want to engage in regardless.
Awesome...

Investment involves risk, and you fell to that risk. There's nothing else that can really be said about it.

That´s untrue - not everyone likes or practizes this abusement of the system, but there´s practically nothing anyone can do against as a player (only admins could stop or at least restrict it by changing the rules/closing the loopholes, but such changes are not wanted, it seems).Mornelak wrote:I started inflating my card's value because I'd heard it can make your next season's card a higher rarity, not because of any sinister motivation, I wasn't intending on selling them off or manipulating anything else, I just wanted a fancy border on my card when S3 rocks around.
Who told you so ? It can only be a rumour, as no one really knows, how and which parameters are set, when card rarity is fixed for 3 series (if there is one, ever); but one thing is for sure : the "artwork badge" will be much less decisive than everything else, because rarity is chosen in relation to the whole NS-game, not because of one single badge related to a mere sub-game. You better invest your time in bringing some more of your states up to "gold" and playing an active role in the overall game (posting, writing issues, being remarkable otherwise) than relying on this very uninteresting "artwork badge", if you want a better rarity for your nation.
