In doing this you decrease the amount of diamonds in circulation making them more rare.
If anything you guys should thank tig for making it possible to get plat for your diamonds without having to search for a buyer. And maybe, the the server will pick up and demand on diamonds will be high and you guys can charge 750 a diamond if you want  |
"the overwhelming amount of diamonds can be turned into plat"
Wrong, won't have any effect on the economy my reasons for this are stated below.
First of why would someone sell diamonds for plat, plat practically has no use besides spawning rings and some other minor stuff. In other words it ain't wanted.
Second, the amount of diamonds going into circulation will of course decrease but only by 0.00001% or something like that. Because of the fact that diamonds are harder to get than plat, that plat easily can be obtained through DoPV which almost every rich player can make. So every rich player will hold onto their diamonds and yep they also have most of the diamonds on GK.
Again all that tig did was set a bottom price for diamonds, meaning that diamonds never will get any lower than 250p.
