gollark: Given their access to ND tutorials/assistance, fancy forumy trading whatsits, notifications about, say, AP SAltkins, and other stuff, probably discord/forum people are slightly "richer" than the average DC user.
gollark: The ones on the forum/discord are most likely to be those WITH rares, though.

gollark: Yes, BUT the availability of market eggs will drive down demand for them.
