Inflation...big problem on GK

MarkB · #1 06-13-2003, 09:01 PM

Alright...the inflation is getitng out of control...15k for IWD? wow, i mean i have paid that much but still..it is out of control. And we ***** about tax in safe trade? The tax needs to be brought back, the abundance of money is destroying GK...not too long ago 10k was like whoa...but now it is different...I think a server reset would be in GKs best interest...due to all the bug abuse, crooked events, duping, etc...

Or you could actually change the going currency, make selling prices higher and the availability of money higher that would balance out the problem by increasing money for lower levels and just a little for higher levels but thats just an idea I like it the way it is now so far but i dont know what the future will bring

I know. I am amazed to see people with all these new event items also. Liek ive seen atleast 4-5 people with War Hammers,and War Axes. Something needs to be done to monitor all this.

Inflation is truely bad. There needs to be something that keeps sucking money from the server.
Hey, idea. Each three months or so, we remove all silver coins, make the gold coins silver coins and make the platinum coins gold coins.

Yes, i have bought them for 10k before...diamonds now sell for up to 600 plat...and the problem with so much money? ah, people can bless weapons to +3 and make 1k off them when it only takes them about 10 mins to bless someting to +3, if that...so lets see....1k per 10 mins....6k per hour....uh go figure..

i was also think maybe just making prices for things in shop much more...instead of a RoS being 12k make it like 40-50k and a RoW 100+k
that woud solve the problem very fast.
People buy iwds for 1k then sell them for 15k and buy summon avatar for 300 and sell it for 5k...er yea

Wow that was a truly truly bad idea....

why not have 2k instead of 13k, just carying all the money is a problem

i mean think, of this
"Buying cause light wounds! 20 000 plats! i now it isnt much but plz im a newb" and RoW 200 000 PLATS!

You now this isnt era.

Thats why items should have durability...

Yea pretty soon if this keeps going on you will see people massing.... Buying Shovel 201k plat(sarcasim) We need to do something about all the money. I say either reset,or rethink the conomy and have weekly tax's delieved to your house or something. Kinda liek you have real tax's billed to your house every month

Kingdom leaders are suppose to be the tax collectors but theres no real way to collect.

MarkB · #14 06-14-2003, 05:31 AM

that does nothing to solve the problem though, the problem with the fact that people can spend these outragous ammounts on items...i think the best thing would be to lower the price of items you can sell...instead of a trex heart selling for 30 plat, why not make it 10, and so on and so forth, and do a complete reset...i know that seems restarded but it would be good for the server..

Fix the new additions... Then reset the entire server. If people leave because of such, **** them. With all that was added, it would keep everyone busy for a good while.
