I propose this reset for a number of things:
1. Everyone will start over, therefor everyone has an equal opportunity to acquire items of value.
2. It will eliminate most USDers (Until people become rich once again)
3. Would allow new systems to be implemented without anyone having an advantage or disadvantage.
I say, there need's to be an Event System. Having player's working as Event Team Member's isnt working, and have never worked for year's in the past. Code a system to do Raffle, to do Labyrinth, to do over event's. The system not only would be more effective on giving out item's, it would be random, and it would be more accurate.
Hell, it would even be better to make GK a Classic Server, here is why.
Making the server a Classic Server would fix the Economy's problem. Most oldbies quit due to not wanting to pay the Gold Subscription.
So take away the Gold Subscription for GK, and you have TONS of players with Classic Accounts. This will support the return of players who don't want to pay to play. This, in turn, bring more items back, and more items into circulation drives down the cost of other, rarer, items. Economy fixed.
Another thing. These people that hoard item's. They dont help the Economy, and in turn, turn players away to wanting to play. Why can't we just have a system that actually work's and lets people get good items? Is it a crime? Will it hurt the server? Of course not. There are sword's, armor, item's that you can make that have speed cap's making you go 1.500. Who want's that? We want item's that are good, easy to make and other more powerful item's take a long time to make. Say a time limit on when to make them, or a very large amount of items to make.
If anybody would like to add there input, please do not flame or burn. This is a type of petition. Everybody see's it, why can't the staff member's?

Before i break it down to you, i'll start with,
you fail.
Everyone start over? The labour required to get where some people are in GK is insane, suggesting a start over is ludicrous. I can say this because i've never USD'd and to get where i am now, financially, took ALOT of work. Yea it's selfish to use just me, but i'm sure there are alot of other players/oldbies who have played fair and speant the hours working to get where they are.
The fact that people even USD items on GK shows it's potential and how attractive the server is. All great games/servers are doomed to involve USD, having a crackdown on it is better than using it as a reason for a reset because people will eventually just USD again.
Pointless to suggest a reset to make way for updates... That method fails totally. GK go classic? Yes it could, i agree that alot of people quit/don't play anymore because of the gold subscription, but Graal has to make money... You're suggesting leaving Zone/Games as the only reason for people to upgrade... Will never be implimented for common sense and financial reasons.
Also, the problem with the economy isn't that there are rare items, hard to obtain items are always a great thing to have in an economy. The problem is the sheer amount of items that are unobtainable unless from seasonal events, special events, usd, or trade (which takes ages to get the funds for them). Everyone is in agreement that Many items need to be made obtainable by craft/drop and i'm sure these dreams will be realised in the future with these Quaterly updates.
That whole rant about item hoarding is a cry of you're poor... You want what you can't have. But i, and even the people hoarding, believe that most of those items should be made obtainable, by difficult means for some - keeping them rare.
