just seems fun to know that orders for more than the cash people had got filled, could make it show up only in the market news option if its too spammy

Here's my take on it:

Leaving the "You sold You sold 0 Bushels for $0 to a standing order" message, for example, might not in itself be that useful. But, when someone does have enough cash on hand to buy at least 1 of something, then you could calculate the networth associated with that transaction, look at the time when the transaction took place, and see which country gained/lost that amount of networth at that time.

If I understand correctly, if a SO is involved in a transaction, no matter how much of that SO is bought, then that SO is taken to the back of the queue. And, having your SO being constantly bumped to the back by countries with little cash on hand would get annoying after a while. Theoretically, someone could intentionally screw with a lot of players by putting up a lot of SOs on a particular item, then logging out with no cash on hand.

Which is the premise for my proposal: Have a small penalty for not being able to meet your SOs, similar to what happens if you switch governments. If someone logs out with NO cash on hand, then their networth will register a drop when they boot someone else's SO to the back of the queue. Then, the person that got screwed out of a sale can have a chance to figure out who was responsible.
I am a troll. Everything I say must be assumed to be said solely to provoke an exaggerated reaction to the current topic. I fully intend to bring absolutely no substance to any discussion, ongoing or otherwise. Conversing with me is pointless.
