There seems to be a lot of, um...cruft...

I'm sure they have big fish to fry, but man, it's the little things that annoy me the most, you know?
Yes, the little things that happen every time you play...those are more annoying than the big bugs sometimes
Kicking around on some very distant moon.........
After a few action-packed rock collectings, I landed on the prettiest little icy body, with blue mountains and two stars. The white star makes the whole sky light up like a whole hemisphere argon bulb. And to top it all off, Eta Carinae hangs in its sky just about 1000 LY away
Still hungry for more things stuck to volcanic features, after all that rock collecting? No prob! This moon has ya covered!

Isn't that a rerun?
I'm a bit puzzled as to why my mercenary rank is so slow to advance, even at my low level. Is it the same as ship combat whereby greater difficulty targets = greater "exp" as it were?
Here is a partial table with possibly accurate info... https://elite-dangerous.fandom.com/wiki/Mercenary#RanksHas anybody but me noticed that they've been slowly nerfing the price of minerals and metals over the last few months?
Seriously. Every single one of them is down at least 20% over the last few months. Some have nearly lost all value like Void Opals and Low Temperature Diamonds - they're average sale price recently isn't much more than bulk Platinum laser mining.

It is a dynamic galaxy...maybe what you're seeing is normal price fluctuation over time. I'm sure thigns will pick back up at some point.
But yes, they could be nerfing things and do make
ETA: One of the things that was lost between Horizons and Odyssey is a bunch of QOL and balance adjustments. Not sure if we've gotten them all back yet or if we ever will...

If it were normal price fluctuation, you'd see a few materials going down in price while others went up as supply and demand changed those dynamics. That's not what's happening. They are ALL going down.
They've nerfed a lot of the missions as well. Robigo Mine runs used to pay 5 million and 6 million per mission. Now most missions are 2 million to 3 million at most. You might go 5 runs before you see a single mission for 4 million.
Pirate massacre missions are down as well. I used to take the Vette out, kill 30 or 40 pirates and net around 60 million. Now I can't clear 20.
At the rate they're nerfing earnings across the board it will take me a year to make enough for a fleet carrier. Maybe that's the plan though: prevent people from getting fleet carriers as they're already everywhere.

I was under the impression that commodity markets reset with an update. It can take couple of weeks to rebalance.
Again, not accurate.
They have been in steady decline for the last two updates. Nothing has gotten higher. It has ALL gotten lower.
And the most laughs, or is it just me?
Nice little family portrait
And some calico stratum.

Nice!
You just be workin'...
@Codger, word of advice, don't send that top picture to anyone...might be newsworthy...
