New Tax Idea(Stefan Should Read)

I posted it once on someones thread but no one replied so I'm making a thread about it.

I think stefan should start charging a 5% tax on everyone on the 31st of a month(so if you carry around 1000 G you'll only lose 50 G,not alot) and the money from tax can be deleted to make money rarer or give it to the event team so they can hold events with money prizes and they should charge a 5% tax for selling/buying items in the marketplace.

Except some months don't have 31 days and some people(like me) do not have much money...We'd lose it slowly...

So people will quit spending the money at the marketplace and go back to trading. Oh and remeber you have to charge the seller a tax also.

Many of those people that have a lot of cash have worked hard.. Not all(scammers)... but most.. Making the money is hard enough with out having someone take it. You want to give up some of your money fine. Go give it some body who doesn't have any because they just started. As for your idea kiss off... I think it is awards time.

But they do tax us.. Pies used to be 10 now they are 8. And you would be making 3g a bread but the tax it at 1.5g and since they can't give you a half g they take 2.

Hmm...all a tax would do is piss everyone off, it has no use and it is a bad idea.

Tax is stupid for a start, it proves no good to anyone and money is hard enough to earn nowadays anyway. If graal tax becomes a reality (in graal), the population will decrease. No-one likes it in the real world, no-one likes it in graal, there is no point in having something so stupid in something that is supposed to be an enjoyable fantasy game. Tax defeats the purpose of fantasy.
