Platinum is the only legitimate currency. EC and Diamonds (etc.) are just currencies used in place of platinum because the large amounts required to purchase whatever item. They are basically placeholders. (250p = 1d = .2EC) or whatever the current formula for trade is.

I agree that you shouldn't benefit because you hoarded a certain item and it got magically turned into a usable currency. And the EC are already spendable.. there shouldn't be a 'sink' added [or reward] for them crying that they don't like the current selection of items and instead hoarding a placeholder currency.

They especially shouldn't be rewarded when they are able to hoard these said items when the server is virtually dead. That Kale can coordinate events whenever he pleases (2 players on for who-cares, being EA... or order his EMs to 'go host events' during times hes online) and simply buy himself unrestricted EC flows into the economy during down-times of player activity. Leading to single players with-holding staggering amounts of EC.

Knowing this current EC situation; I would change my original opinion because the idea is based more on you [and other hoarders] personally gaining than a new inlet for items.

just to say I've never seen anyone host with less than 15 people on. so get your facts straight man. even if someone would host with 10 people on. if they can get 5-10 players to play... thats usually the average for an event. it's just been pretty large cause people came back for easter.

It's not like he would Sell them for USD or something... they will more than likely get traded around.

Some people might though... but that's the same with any game... especially ones that have rare one of a kind items.
