Lets do it.
I think the better solution would be to have it like this. Brutals = 2500 platinum coins } Universal. If people believe dias are so worthless, that shouldn't affect platinum, therefore 20dias = 1brutal = 2500plat. 1:125 dialat.
The problem is that dias have become less valuable in trade. But they are a stand-alone substitute currency and only affect prepping. But the fools of GK haven't considered that the real currency is platinum. And it's still considered 1dia:500plat. Because of this everything has gone up and although noobs might think this is a good thing, inflation isn't good for anybody. High levels need 2-5k for 5 levels with brutals, low levels won't even afford brutals and meanwhile, they won't get dests anymore because they aren't profitable to sell.

I tried to fix this all with raising dest prices but others stopped it and things have just gotten worse...

So what if diamonds are worth less? Nothing should change. All it means is every1 who has invested in diamonds has lost alot. It's like if you had a rare in 03, came back in 06 to find it's more common, it loses value, but doesn't affect the economy. Imo Brutals = 2500plat, EC's = 12500plat etc. The old dia values should still apply to platinum which hasn't changed, it's just as available and useful as it was 2 years ago.
