It needs to be a progressive tax where the rich get taxed more. The rich won't quit era because lets face it, if you are high up on a game you don't usually quit. New players won't be hit to much so they hopefully won't quit. I don't feel like going back to page 1 but i think this is like option A or something?

How is this in any way fair?

The rich worked for their worth. Why should we take the bigger blow because of some Era catastrophe? If you think that they'd agree to anything along those lines then you're crazy.

The richer players have most of their money invested in items, newbies do not, so they are losing cash but most rich players trade items

The problem is that right now to many players have too much money. If you just decided to cut that in half then they'd all be screwed for some mess up that the staff didn't catch or prevent.

Pretty much everyone will be affected thats the problem. In reality those who spawned the money will get away with their actions because they bought items. So they will get to keep their items, while the innocent seller will lose his cash. But i just feel like if the rich got hurt a bit more than the poorer newbies, less people would leave or get discouraged to play.

This almost reminds me of the time we had the "Great Wall of Era", where access to Southridge was completely cut until a benchmark in donations was made... or the time Mange blew up PPA but that was less of a "Disaster relief" situation and more of a "PPA didn't deserve to live at that time" situation.

Oh my God.

First I'd like to know how this happened and if the glitch abusers were found?

Tomorrow I'll post a full post about my opinion towards this.

I don't see how the money is the issue.

Now people have lots of money and still have nothing to spend it on?
The prices of guns will just rise by roughly the same proportion that money was injected into the economy. It's not going to be unfair to new players because new players never really had a chance at obtaining any of those 500K+ guns anyway.

The only people who might be screwed over by this are the people who had a lot of money saved up to buy something and now suddenly their "lot of money" isn't really all that much. In which case slashing bank accounts by a percentage or a fixed rate would just screw them over even more. People who had almost no cash and had lots of items are the ones that stand to benefit the most from this, because now all their items are worth proportionately more.

So what can you do to reduce the value of items by a percentage?

It's not a race to see who releases what first...
