Sitting around trying to show off your gear is not much of an economy now is it? During the alpha preview GK was obviously intended to be more "Graalian", in it's early stages before kingdoms were released it was a slight upgrade of G2k1. It was about developing your character through real work, not grinding on monsters and not about collecting the most elite gear so that no one has a chance against you unless their WC/AC is at a certain level. Groups of people would plant trees, water them, etc. People mined and crafted their first weapons using different materials in the blacksmith, not...well I don't even know how people get elite weapons anymore.
Like G2k1, the kingdoms on GK were placed to bring parts of the community together so that they could roleplay and interact with the other kingdoms. Given the playercount I can't really be too critical when it comes to kingdoms but over the years to me it just seems like leveling and high-tier items are all GK is about.
So true @ Rufus, you don't need to change what a server is to evolve or change with the times.
