Would like to see Rapseys opinion on this.
That being said some of you mentioned a dip in credit prices and that’s literally because there is no demand for credits. Since for new players it’s much more cost effective to buy credits and sell them on the Ge or to players rather than actually spending them in the shop. An yes I am one of those players that was merching donator credits; however, I was doing it by buying the credits and then buying a whip out of the donator shop to profit (which of course removed 7k credits each time I did it) but it’s no longer profitable to do that.
This has led to credits dropping in price as there are way too many in the market with nothing to spend them on

It's important to mention that the only reason there would be a demand for the credits in credit-form is for people to stock up for ultra rares. If that motive doesn't exist, the credits will go 1:1 for the shop value. Why would you otherwise pay anything more for the credits than what you can get back for it? This is what is happening right now in the market; the wealthy players that want to stock up have done so, and are probably set for any ultra-rare event. So the demand for the credits has been dropping.
I'm afraid that introducing these ultra-rares now wouldn't even really spike up donations. Most of the stock will be sold out instantly, because people have been collecting thousands of tickets over the past few months. Afterwards, maybe some of these wealthy players would start buying the tickets again to restock their credit collection (if it even shaved off enough).
I think we should wait a year before really re-introducing them. I don't see any point in releasing them so soon after the last event. Just my personal opinion though.

If there is no sale in the near future I could only imagine the decrease in donator credits and the lack of funding to keep the server up. Maybe slap another 25-50K credits on these items to get more credits out of the game but speaking as someone very much involved in the in game market credits will crash making the volume of donations crash aswell. Atleast if the good majority of credits gets taken out of economy it’ll give people more of a reason to donate again. Just like everyone else I would like to hear
