Obviously when people realize that they can't get anything good when they log on, most will react by saying "F*** this." and logging off.
Edit: As for your "downside" to the technique stated above. I really don't think it's a downside.. but more of an upside. I mean, in the end.. when the majority of people log on to Era, they are looking to have a good time. I don't really think money should be of any serious relevance. Honestly, when I play Graal, it's because I am bored and want to have fun.. get some items, PK, participate in events. But due to the current nature of the server it's almost impossible to do those things. I can't PK efficiently without getting owned by someone using some super gun that cost 2 million dollars, and I don't even have a mere 5000$ in my bank account. (Btw, this is just an example.. I still own people with my crappy famas.) :-P

Well, that's an entire direction choice for the management to consider. Would Era benefit with more arcade-like gameplay or should they stick with what they have? A change of gameplay focus might be a risk but it's got to be better than what's happening now.
I've yet to see assurances that New Era will be void of the problems which current Era is rife with.
