from what i understand there is a limit on num of shares

Posted by: winstonman78 (a.k.a Dorfman) on Apr 06, 12:52 in response to confusedman's post I'm just curious, why is there a limit of 20,000 shares...

for starbonds same reason as for movies. its so that one person cant influebce the market. if there was no limit. someone could buy 1mil shres of a starbond and make the price go up like crazy.

I'm just curious, why is there a limit of 20,000 shares on star bonds? and why is there a 250 max delist on movies for star bonds? confusedman Apr 06, 12:28

Right on number of shares, as for the cap... LanceStorm22 Apr 06, 14:03

fair point, but I didn't mean infinite shares, but why not same number of shares as stocks. or a percentage based on max stock position twoshenoudas Apr 06, 14:15

A history lesson....Originally, prior to Oct 2001, there was a limit of 500 shares but the prices were huge (THANK was over 6K) . The whole Buy StarBondFund (EURO too) Apr 06, 20:30

caps are because starbonds are too much easy/guaranteed money, and all you do by raising limits is let rookies grow their ports faster than islander Apr 06, 14:41

only rookies? :) Still wish they had respective leaderboards for moviestocks and starbonds... {nm} amnesiac Apr 08, 09:23
