No not GK, dont know about Zone cause I dont play it, but deffinitley not GK, the economy is already fked now as people were using that market stall bug this would just ruin it even more, the current level of USDing on GK is still pretty high but atleast its just recycling the existing items and keeping them in the game, which is a good thing, new items maybe but they should be given to everyone not just evented off or made in a shop ='/

You could interpret that post differently. Like he gets an item and then someone sends him 30 bucks because it looks so pretty.

I'm sure it's only for example sake - but just to be safe - $1 is way too cheap. Since most people become bored with GK after a year, or a year and a half, you would have to take this into consideration when determining effective costs for such opportunities.
Why differentiate? "Seperate but equal is inheritly unequal" - if I'm some Fortune500 CEO, and I gotta go to work, I'd rather my game gave me the option of paying the price of a cappuchino to pretend I spent the day online instead. And not in the sense of "Lolz I downloaded a bot", in the sense of I would have made 50 plat mining, so here's 50 plat. I can use it to buy a better shovel.

That is an economic system I'm comfortable with, as opposed to You can buy the Silver Pickaxe for 5000 plat, or you can buy the Much Better Gold Pickaxe for $50!...that just leads to a skewed stratified economy of The Rich vs The Poor.

It's essentially the same, really - but one is much more slow. I would love to see some new markets opened up with USD but I really think GK needs a entire revamp before it even be considered.

GK Sucks and is dead. Once Graal3D comes out, no one will play there.

Everybody will rush to Graal3D and play for a few weeks and realize that it sucks and then go back to 2K2. Then G3D will get retooled into something actually good which may replace 2K2.

That's if G3D every really happens though.

I still think G3D shoulda been a mode for all servers.
Classic with a 3d dungeon. That woulda been weird.

What you mean exactly? Turn every server in a 3D server? Hell no damnit! That would suck :/ In my opinion, there should be a client just for G3D, because 2D and 3D are 2 totally different things. You could use your "2D account" there of course.
