    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Main Server
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Make Mining Great Again
    What are you suggesting:
    Fellow ECC'ers, it has come to my attention that mining is most likely the worst and most time consuming way to make dog poop money.I believe that by increasing the price of certain minerals, mining can once again become (great) an adequate way to make money that can compete with fishing and farming. Currently I think it is lagging behind in terms of profit per hour, and I think that increasing the price of gold to $10 (Currently $5.30), lapis to $1.50 (Currently $1), and Diamond to $30 (Currently $22) will help reduce this glaring difference. Of course if these prices go into effect, player shops will raise prices even higher, most likely settling somewhere in the range of $11.50 for gold, $1.75 for lapis, and $33 for diamonds. Using these figures I calculated my average mining trip profit using these numbers minus my profit when using current prices of Highgarden and saw an increase anywhere from 5%-15% in profits.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    I believe this is a good addition because I am of the belief that mining should provide the highest reward of the main "grind" occupations using max tools for each one. Fishing currently offers the most and is the least involved. Farming is next and requires more effort, and then mining is last but requires the most effort and the most risk. More risk should equate to more reward for successful runs.

    We do not take suggestions like this on prices. Sorry.

    The administration already has tools to analyze the economy far better than players can, and there's simply a conflict of interest in all of these suggestions for obvious reasons.
