I think you should have kept them player-ran Tim. If the issue is with owner's making to much money, why not just have it ran by the GBA? Part of the fun of Era is having a job. You could just have the GBA hire a Manager, who keeps the place under control and gets paid a salary. This way no one is getting all the extra money, and there is still player jobs

Sounds like a long winded and BS'ed way to go about it.
Just supporting Alfonso's follies though right?

Doing monotonous tasks for minimal pay while someone reaps the benefit of your work hardly sounds 'fun'.
Currently, you don't have to suck someone off to get hired and receive your rewards immediately for doing the same job. No one forces you to 'go stock' or benefactors from 'paying' you to do it.

Sounds pretty fine to me.
Plus, we don't have undesirables like Reese running the biz.

? Repeating what I say doesn't make you cool mang.

Plus, it doesn't even make sense in that way.

There is only one person who benefits from a player-ran business...the owner. It's not worth the countless troubles.

in GP AM or PT, you earn more money mining than you would selling things straight to the server.

plus if you were a bad person you could just macro stock, earn a decent amount of money for holding down a button or two.

Can't speak for the other businesses though, but I feel like if this were the case they wouldn't be as popular.
