Even if the drop rate of ecto for example is decreased, there are still how many in existence? Yes, the price would go way up, but the result would be rich owners and many more ppl running UW farm builds. Eventually, they'd be right where they are now again. The main reason the have value left after how farmed they are is a)some leave circulation with crafting and b) ppl tend to sell private and stash them to use as currency. If ppl didn't use em as currency, they'd be much lower anyway. People would probably just use something else.

Your communism argument is not terribly thought out tbh. I'm not proposing everyone be equal, you were proposing what seemed to me to be make the rich richer and poor poorer. Not seeing that as any kind of solution to what you see as "broken" doesn't make me Soviet Russia lol.

Yes, we need more gold sinks. I'd love to see armors/weapons etc I want or need to work for again. I just think your "solution"...isn't a solution at all.
first part, not to burst your bubble, we may not have infinite resources, but through your lifetime , oil wont ran dry, water wont go away, sky wont sink...
so it will feel its infinite. o btw, economics is about money, not charity sry...
economics = finance. sociology = people.

ok for my part, i did not word that properly, i didnt mean the poor poorer and the rich richer, i meant everyone is equal? what fun would that be... somewhat like GW... right now. hey i know my solutions aren't great (i dont get paid to make up solutions to a.net problem) but i was hoping to make "noise" and get people talking instead they flame and flame...

thank you forc actually making sense.

Yes, I'd like the drops for everything I own to be MUCH rarer so that I can cash it in. Sounds like a plan! Re-shape the GW economy to only suit my needs!

What? People have a problem with that? Ha - you all are noobs and don't know anything about erkonomiqs!

/translation

Seriously.


EDIT: My take on how to fix the economy - wipe everyone's account and start at square one. Who's with me?

Where are you reading me say anything regarding everyone being equal? I said at no time everyone should be equal. I don't think widening the gap will solve anything, that is not the same thing, nor is it sociology. You're right "economics = finance. sociology = people." Fact is though, people are part of economy. No people, no economy.

Where did the charity thing come in? When have I said anything resembling charity? Sociology? Are you misreading things or debating people in your head? Logic ftw where?

sigh, flames again.
i guess you cant really have intelligent conversation with unintelligent people.
no wonder GW is going down, people like this play it.
ya i get your sarcasm so dont get excited...
BTW I AM NOT UBER RICH NOT EVEN RICH..HECK I DONT EVEN PLAY HARDCORE...
why do people always assume that if someone starts a thread about economy or money, that the person is uber rich...? bothers me.

im with you tho on wiping everyone's account and start at square one.
/no sarcasm.

first part, i didnt quote you saying that you said everyone is equal, but what i meant was the communist party or countries. the government regulates and owns everything.. blah blah bottome line, you cant get uber rich in communist party unless your a corrupt politician. thus everyone is equal.

charity is for your mentions of people/shelter etc.

my god.

charity has different meanings..in your case , peoples need.

You realize every single post you make, makes you look even stupider, right? You probably do, because everyone kinda figured out you're not serious. But just in case your IQ is in the single digits, take this as your hint...

The only person who has tried to bring communism into this is you. The only one who has brought everyone being equal into this...again, you.

My mention of food/shelter was in only reference to your statement that the economy of a game is the same as real life. Real needs and resources vs game resources like ecto etc. Charity came no where near it. Charity is not just need, it is a way supplying that need. No one mentioned these needs being supplied at any time. Again, this was apparently just you.

If you're going to try to start a debate, you need to actually address what people say rather than pulling things out of the air.

Are you seriously playing "grammatical" police??? When you yourself have little sentence structure, a disregard for capital letters and you obviously ignore spell check? Now I've said nothing so far because this is a forum and these things are common and accepted here but...hypocrite much?

For the love of God, would a mod please close this thread? Or better yet just delete it...

The mental retardation rate of the board members is growing exponentially due to threads like this killing brain cells with their mindless stupidity. I can actually feel the intelligence being drained out of people...

@OP : Drugs are bad, mkay? They kill brain cells and make you stupid. I know it's too late to reverse the effect, but you CAN stop any further damage. Please, for your parents sake, stop abusing whatever it is you are clearly abusing and try to stay clean.

@ Shakti : Are you really surprised by the hypocrisy? Because I find it's quite common with this kind of person.


Oh, and trolling ftw, but the OP so deserves it.

At this point, the only way to fix the economy is to make another game.

3 Cheers for the person who spotted the Anet "fix" for the economy

Assuming, of course, that you accept it's broken. Which it isn't.
