Hacking Skill

I thought this might go into General Chat so if mods feel so it would be great, an admin response would be great aswell.

Hacking skill : 500
PC Hacking will give you 12.5k per 5 energy. (calculated)
1 ec : 50 energy
50 energy : 10 * 12.5k = 125k cds.

ECs capped at 93k cds.

Assume a player has 500 HS and buys 10 ecs/day at 100k (very easy) and uses it at PC hacking, he gets 1.25mil, when he spent 1 mil. THAT IS A FREAKING 25% INTEREST!!!!

I am not whining, it is a serious flaw in the game, neither am i asking to remove ec market average restriction, other things can be done like reducing the money received from hacking skill, i had say at least half it.

I am neither reporting this because I do not have 500 hacking skill, this is another problem just like interest was, richer kept getting richer, so people having 500 HS and a little start up money can keep increasing their Bank easily.

pretty sure thats how life works... but this way, they have to click the mouse 100 times (or use tabs but thats another matter) rather than just one button for free cash

firefox + middle click FTW open 100 tabs and keep REFRESHING ALL TABS.

100 tabs + 10 whole refreshes = 100 ecs done.

If this wasn't true, hacking skill would be useless and people would complain that it should be increased. Also, if someone was to do this, them buying ECs and increasing the supply of CDs into the game would cause the price of ECs to rise, thus stopping them from making a profit. And by the time anyone gets 500 hacking skill, EC prices will have risen to the point where they don't make a profit, making the whole venture useless.
TL;DR Train hacking skill quickly.
