So, in my opinion, incessant has an excellent point about the ratio of fg:isk
All I can say dude... the actual value of fg is not connected to its monetary value because the jsp market isn't designed for it.
Thx. I agree 100% with ure Post !

for fg to have monitary value, you would need to be able to cash your fg back out for cash
sure you "can" buy fg, but your not buying fg directly, your donating cash to the site, and getting a compensation for your donation
but, im pretty sure legally, under all definitions of the word, fg has ZERO monitory value
I dont agree that its necessary to have the possibilty to cash out that fg gets a real Money value.
I will try explain on an Example what i'm thinking, its a little bit psychology !
Some people in real Life are collecting paintings like from picasso ... normally its just a piece of paper some colour on it ... so the worth should be few Dollars ... but there are many People in the World who agree that it got more worth than just a few Dollars and are also willing spend more Money for it ... so you know if you would buy a Picasso it could have worth of x Million Dollar.
Its the same with fg ... fg normally would have no worth its just a "virtuall good" like the piece of paper has no worth but there are also many People who accepted this "currency" and so because you know there are many People which are up to spend Items / Services for fg that is where fg gets his worth from.
And if you think economical you should compare prices on the different markets.
