That's amusing. I looked at the topic and I had not seen it before, so I thought that Marvin's was the first post in the topic.
It's been awhile, hasn't it?

@ snubs:
That’s strange, the site was created from scratch so there’s nothing there that’s not phpBB authorized. It may be referring to the hosting service, but I don’t know why. And even if so, again, they have no content on my actual site.

@ Smaug:
Thank you! :D I thought it would be both a nice trip down memory lane for the oldbies, as well as a fun glimpse into the past for the newbies.

@ Marvin:
Try reading the posts in the first page again. If you still have trouble, PM me.

I have no idea what you’re referring to, so I don’t know.

I think she's under 13, and a lot of message board sites require you to fax/mail in a paper signed by your parents before your account is activated.

I concur with the idea about adding interest at the bank, because you normally can't spend all you money on stock so you just have money doing nothing when it could be making money somewhere.

I’ve turned on the interest at the Bank of Fenix, it is currently at 10% every 3 days. That should allow a little safety net from going broke, and also give a way to slowly make extra money (with the leftovers after you buy your initial stocks) to save up and be able to buy more. We’ll see how it works.

Well, I'm glad I pulled my cash out of the market. It is plummeting.

Not all of it. The value of Project D.O.L.L.Y. has increased 33% since it opened.

However stocks that expensive really aren't worth investing in.

They are if you sell them when they get even more expensive.

Erm, not really. The goal in this system is to make more money. Therefore it doesn't matter how high the stock is, whether it's 5 or 500. All that matters is how much higher it gets. Therefore the lower the stock cost the more of it I can buy and thus more money.

If they were all trending upwards, obviously. But you said those ones were crashing. That one is not.
