ViperZakuto is an unknown quantity at this point
I think removing the speed caps altogether would be a great idea. Of course short term it would probably screw some of the more rare armors up a bit... but you people have to think of the long term effects. Newer players would be happy with wearing their silver platemail of berwean. Maybe add some speeds to those armors... since you are supposed to move faster with those on.

platemail of berwean = speed + .25
Silver platemail of berwean = Speed +.5
Gold platemail of berwean = speed + .75
Mithril chainmail of berwean = speed + 1

once you get to a certain point in the game there is only three good armors to wear that i know of. It would make more items actually worth trading and be great for the economy.

I'm think that if this were done... that all armors in the game currently would have to have to be changed manually by staff (correct me if i'm wrong here.)the only solution I could think of here would be to script something like the cleansing pond where you trade in your old gear and a fresh new one will come out with no speed cap... and new stats? that sounds pretty hard to script though.
