Just to clear up all arguments on ce prices these days:
--> What happens when any of the countries we live in experience price raises and more taxes towards consumer products? Based on the international economy problem recently, are prices raises good or bad? Then, linking to that question, will Spiral knights players be happy if ce prices rise in the long run? Even if you are rich at the moment, what will you do when you run out of ce?
If you run out of CE ( a fairly common occurence, I imagine), you play on mist energy until you've gathered enough crowns to buy CE. I can't think of a single reason any players would be happy about it, except that it might force people to buy CE with real-world money, which is ultimately necessary to keep Three Rings (and SEGA) in business. We'd certainly all be unhappy if they went out of business, so if rising CE costs are the price we must pay, then so be it.

I am tier 3 and I need to upgrade yourself. Perhaps you are willing to donate to me? No, I didn't think so. So please think again before you speak.
The only people who really know if they're good or bad is Three Rings.
I'm going to assume they think it's bad because they put energy on sale, and announced rare item auctions as a permanent features.
